Good morning everyone! 😊 Let's start of the day with a grammar quiz: "by the time the movie _____ (begin), we _____ (finish) all our popcorn 🍿." (explanation in comments)

Question

Answer

The past perfect tense (had + past participle) is used to show that one action happened before another action in the past.

In the example “By the time the movie began (past simple), we had already finished (past perfect) all our popcorn”, the action of finishing the popcorn is before beginning the movie.
