Correct form of the verb is 'were standing'.

When the rain started, we were standing in the field.

  • Past continuous tense is also known as Past progressive tense.
  • It denotes an action that was continuous in nature, till interrupted by another action in the past.
  • Here, the sentence is trying to tell that the subject 'we' were in the middle of a continuous action 'were standing' when another action 'rain started', took place .
  • The use of 'were' shows presence of plural subject 'we'. In case the subject would have been singular, we would have used 'was' in place of 'were'.
