طالب علم سڑک پر تھے۔ – Talib-e-ilm sarak par thay. – छात्र सड़क पर थे।

English: The students were on the street.

Short Explanation:

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

Structure: Subject + were + adjective/noun (e.g., I were on the street).

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