We use the past continuous to talk about past events which went on for a period of time.

Ne gjuhen angleze ne e perdorim kohen Past Continuous Tense, kur deshirojme te pasqyrojme veprime apo ngjarje te se shkuares realizimi i te clive ka kerkaar nje sasi te caktuar kone.

We use it when we want to emphasize the continuing process of an activity or the period of that activity. 

Ne e perdorim kete kohe sa here jemi te interesuar te tregojme kohezgjatjen e veprimit, kohen qe kerkon veprimi per tu realizuar.

If we just want to talk about the past event as a simple fact, we use the past simple.

Ne qofte se jemi te interesuar thjesht per te folur per ngjarje te cilât kane perfunduar ne te shkuaren kur ato i permendim thjesht si fakte atehere mundesia me e mire eshte te perdorim kohen Simple Past Tense.
