Bonjour
le prétérit BE + V-ing > pour une action passée qui était en train de se dérouler
(on conjugue "be " au prétérit (was/were) + BV -ing
Le prétérit simple > pour une action passée, terminée, et parfois datée (si je peux, je te soulignerai les indicateurs qui justifie le preterit simple)
1- Were you having dinner when I rang ?
2- He lost his job three years ago.
3- I was dreaming when you woke me up.
4- She wasn't washing her hair when you arrived.

quand seul le prétérit est employé dans une phrase,, l'indicateur est souligné
Pour toutes les autres phrase, les 2 prétérits sont employés. Le prétérit simple est l'action courte du passé qui interrompt celle qui était en train de se dérouler et que l'on met au prétérit BE +V-ing
