These sentences are examples of the past continuous tense in Russian and English. The past continuous tense is used to describe an action that was in progress at a specific time in the past or to show that two actions were happening at the same time in the past. The past continuous tense is formed by using the past tense of the verb быть (to be) and the present participle of the main verb in Russian, and by using the past tense of the verb to be and the present participle of the main verb in English.
