امتحان مختصر تھا۔ – Imtihan mukhtasar tha. – परीक्षा संक्षिप्त था।

English: The exam was brief.

Short Explanation:

Grammar Point: The Past Simple tense with "to be" (was) describes a past state, trait, or condition — here, "brief".

Structure: Subject + was + adjective/noun (e.g., I was brief).

Usage Tip: Use this pattern to describe how someone or something was in the past, unlike "am/is/are" for the present.
