Default past perfect tense (English as a second language users)

Past perfect tense (English as a second language users)

In response to my previos thread key member Mr. David L has explained the usage of past perfect tense (p.f.t) in lengthy passages in an example provided by me. Refer thread past perfect tense - lack of clarity.

I request senior teachers and members alike to provide numerous examples esp., lengthy passages (at least comprising of minimum 4 to 5 lines) to teach us (viewers like me) the usage of past perfect tense (in lenthy passages based on context).

Viewers who use English as a second language are requested to post good number of passages (with past perfect tense) such that the senior teachers /members can provide us with valuabe guidance regarding its usage under different context.

Thankyou
