ПРАВИЛА СОГЛАСОВАНИЯ ВРЕМЕН
1. Если в главном предложении глагол употреблен в одной из форм прошедшего вре-
мени, то форма глагола в придаточном предложении должна быть также употреблена
в форме прошедшего времени.
Выбор формы глагола в придаточном предложении зависит от того, являются ли
действия в главном и придаточном предложениях одновременными, предшествует
ли одно другому или действие в придаточном следует за действием в главном пред-
ложении.
• Если действия в главном и придаточном предложениях одновременны, то в при-
даточном предложении глагол употребляется в форме Past Indefinite или Past
Continuous.
Everybody knew why she behaved like that.
I could hardly understand what she was talking about.
• Если действие в придаточном предложении предшествует действию в главном,
то в придаточном предложении глагол употребляется в форме Past Perfect или Past
Perfect Continuous.
It wasn’t quite clear how the accident had happened.
I realized that the man had been watching me for quite a long time.
• Если действие в придаточном предложении следует за действием в главном, то
в придаточном предложении глагол употребляется в форме Future-in-the Past.
It seemed to her that nothing would ever change in her life.
2. Согласование времен действует не только внутри одного предложения, но и в контексте.
I knew what kind of man Pete’s brother was. We had met several times and besides
Pete had often told me about him. I realized that he was a difficult man to deal with. It
wouldn’t be easy to persuade him to join us.
Правила согласования времен не соблюдаются, если в придаточном предложении
речь идет об общеизвестном факте или универсальной истине.
