Question

Why we use was sitting instead of were sitting

Answer 1

because were is used for plural and was is for singular

please mark as brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

When it's singular we use "was sitting" eg. he was sitting silently on the bench

And when it's plural we use "were sitting" eg. they all were sitting with mobile phones in their hand

It makes the sentence grammatical correct and more sensible
