Before I studied your English grammar lesson Past perfect tense, I hadn't known clearly this the Past Perfect tense. Thank you very much indeed as you are the best teacher for me.
@nirob hasan I think this is wrong for Past Perfect. Because we need two Past actions.. and when we have changed first part we wouldn't have two Past actions... I think so.. But you did it in Present Perfect then it could be)))))I think so)

I've never understood this tense 100%. So, hopefully I will have understood it by the end of the lesson. I'll be editing my message. Edit 1: Ok, so because I'd already been reviewing this tense for a few months before I watched this video, I already knew how to use it. But I'd still misuse it occasionally. That's why I wanted to master this tense. Edit 2: I have not really learnt much, but at least I'm having some fun while re-studying it. Edit 3: The lesson's done. I think I pretty much know when and how to use it. Thanks for your wonderful lesson.
