امتحانات منحصر تھے۔ – Imtihanaat munhasir thay. – परीक्षाएँ आश्रित थे।

English: The exams were dependent.

Short Explanation:

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

Structure: Subject + were + adjective/noun (e.g., I were dependent).

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