Below is a massive list of think about past words — that is, words related to think about past. The top 4 are: contemplate, rethink, ponder and cogitate. You can get the definition(s) of a word in the list below by tapping the question-mark icon next to it. The words at the top of the list are the ones most associated with think about past, and as you go down the relatedness becomes more slight. By default, the words are sorted by relevance/relatedness, but you can also get the most common think about past terms by using the menu below, and there’s also the option to sort the words alphabetically so you can get think about past words starting with a particular letter. You can also filter the word list so it only shows words that are also related to another word of your choosing. So for example, you could enter «contemplate» and click «filter», and it’d give you words that are related to think about past and contemplate.

You can highlight the terms by the frequency with which they occur in the written English language using the menu below. The frequency data is extracted from the English Wikipedia corpus, and updated regularly. If you just care about the words’ direct semantic similarity to think about past, then there’s probably no need for this.

There are already a bunch of websites on the net that help you find synonyms for various words, but only a handful that help you find related, or even loosely associated words. So although you might see some synonyms of think about past in the list below, many of the words below will have other relationships with think about past — you could see a word with the exact opposite meaning in the word list, for example. So it’s the sort of list that would be useful for helping you build a think about past vocabulary list, or just a general think about past word list for whatever purpose, but it’s not necessarily going to be useful if you’re looking for words that mean the same thing as think about past (though it still might be handy for that).

If you’re looking for names related to think about past (e.g. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas. The results below obviously aren’t all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. If your pet/blog/etc. has something to do with think about past, then it’s obviously a good idea to use concepts or words to do with think about past.

If you don’t find what you’re looking for in the list below, or if there’s some sort of bug and it’s not displaying think about past related words, please send me feedback using this page. Thanks for using the site — I hope it is useful to you! 🐐

That’s about all the think about past related words we’ve got! I hope this list of think about past terms was useful to you in some way or another. The words down here at the bottom of the list will be in some way associated with think about past, but perhaps tenuously (if you’ve currenly got it sorted by relevance, that is). If you have any feedback for the site, please share it here, but please note this is only a hobby project, so I may not be able to make regular updates to the site. Have a nice day! 🐽

1. Talking About Experiences in the Past

Martin: Have you ever been bungee jumping?

Stephanie: No, I haven’t. I’ve been skydiving, though. What about you? Have you ever done any extreme sports like that?

M: Does windsurfing count? I’ve tried windsurfing, although that was a long time ago.

S: I think windsurfing definitely counts! I’ve seen people doing it and they were going at crazy speeds. I’ve never done anything like that myself.

M: Skydiving sounds very extreme to me. Where did you do it?

S: It was in Spain. I did a tandem jump. It was fun, but I’m not sure I’d do it again.

How to Talk About the Past in English - skydiving image

You probably know already that English has different past verb forms to talk about the past in English in different ways.

However, you often need a present verb form to talk about the past. You saw an example in the dialogue you just heard.

Use the present perfect to talk or ask about experiences in the past, but only if you don’t say a time! For example:

  • I’ve tried windsurfing.
  • I’ve never been bungee jumping.
  • Have you ever been skydiving?

Of course, you can change these to talk about different things, like this:

  • I’ve read ‘The Idiot’.
  • I’ve never drunk whisky.
  • Have you ever grown your own vegetables?

However, as soon as you mention a time, you need to switch to a past tense. For example:

  • I went windsurfing three years ago.
  • I didn’t drink a lot last night.
  • Did you eat a lot of sushi when you were in Japan?

For this reason, when you’re talking about life experiences, you often start with the present perfect, and then switch to a past tense when you mention a specific time.

For example, someone might ask you, Have you ever been to Australia?

You might answer, Yes, I went there two years ago, for my friend’s wedding.

The question is present perfect, because it’s asking about experiences without mentioning a time. The answer mentions a time—two years ago—and so you need the past simple.

Next, let’s see how you can talk about differences between the past and the present.

2. Comparing the Past to the Present

S: Wow! You used to have a beard? You look so different!

M: Yeah! That was during my punk rock phase.

S: Really? Did you use to be in a band or something?

M: Yes, but it wasn’t anything big. There were a few of us who were all mates, and we would play in pubs or small clubs.

S: So, what were you? Singer? Guitar?

M: Drummer! I used to play the drums.

S: And now? You don’t play any more?

M: No, I gave up.

How to Talk About the Past in English - play the drums

In English, there are past structures which you can use to show a difference between the past and the present. Can you remember any of these from the dialogue?

You can use used to to talk about something which was true in the past, but isn’t true now. For example:

  • He used to have a beard. –> He had a beard in the past, but he doesn’t have one now.
  • I used to live in Berlin. –> I lived in Berlin in the past, but I don’t live there now.

You can also use the negative form—didn’t use to—to talk about things that weren’t true in the past, but are true now. For example:

  • They didn’t use to get on so well. –> They didn’t get on well in the past, but they do now.
  • I didn’t use to wear glasses. –> I wear glasses now, but I didn’t in the past.

You can also make questions:

  • Did you use to play a musical instrument?
  • Didn’t he use to work here?

You can also use would to talk about actions or habits which you did in the past, but you don’t do now. For example:

  • When we got home, Mum would make us beans on toast and then we’d watch cartoons.
  • There was this bakery near the office where I would go every lunchtime to get a sandwich and chat to the other regulars.

Finally, you can also use a present verb plus any more. This has a similar meaning to used to. Let’s look:

  • She doesn’t live here any more. –> She lived here in the past, but she doesn’t live here now.
  • I don’t have time to listen to music any more. –> I had time in the past, but now I don’t.

What about you? How is your life different now? Let’s practice: pause the video and make three sentences about how your life is different to the past. Try to use all of the language from this section: used to, would and any more.

You can say your sentences out loud, or write them down. Pause the video and do it now!

In the next two sections, you’re going to see useful language for telling a story when you want to talk about the past in English.

3. Setting the Scene of a Story

M: Oh! Have I told you what happened to us on our trip?

S: No! What happened?

M: It’s a really crazy story. So, we were sitting on the bus, ready to leave…

S: Where were you going?

M: Sofia. Anyway, the weather was awful. It was raining so hard you couldn’t even see out of the window, and…

S: Who were you travelling with?

M: With my wife. We were planning to visit some old friends who…

S: Where was the bus leaving from?

M: From Athens. Look, can I tell my story, or not?

S: Oh, sorry…

When you tell a story, you need to set the scene. What does ‘set the scene’ mean?

It means you need to describe the background of the story. What was happening at the start of the story? Who was there, and what were the people in your story doing at the start?

To give background to a story, you use the past continuous. For example:

  • We were sitting on the bus, ready to leave.
  • It was raining so hard you couldn’t even see out of the window.

If you’re telling a story from your own life, you’ll often start with one or two sentences in the past continuous to set the scene. You might say:

  • I was living in a small apartment at the time.
  • I was driving home after work.

This isn’t just useful when you’re telling long stories; you can use this any time you’re giving a slightly longer answer about the past, for example in a job interview or an IELTS exam.

However, if you do want to tell a longer story, there are some other things you’ll need to know.

4. Showing the Sequence of Events in the Past

S: Did I tell you about my driving test?

M: No, what happened?

S: I passed! You know, I took it last week, and I hadn’t taken any lessons. Not one!

M: No way! But, you must have practiced at least?

S: No! I had only driven a car twice in my life.

M: How on earth did you pass?

S: It was rush hour. We drove out of the test centre, and then we sat in a traffic jam. All of the streets were totally stuck. I made three left turns, and finally we arrived back at the test centre. I just drove around the block once!

M: And that counts as a pass?

S: Hey, I didn’t make any mistakes.

M: So what happened next? Did you drive home?

S: Well…

M: What happened?

S: I tried, and I had a very small accident. I mean, I don’t think it even counts as an accident.

M: Maybe you should take some driving lessons.

S: Very funny.

How to Talk About the Past in English - red car

When you start a story, you usually say when these things took place. You’ll say something like:

  • Last week…
  • This happened two years ago, in summer.
  • So, yesterday, I was walking down the street…

This time reference ‘fixes’ the time when your story starts.

What does this mean?

Well, think about the story you heard in the dialogue. The time reference was last week.

During the story, I talked about things that happened before the start of the story, even further in the past. I also talked about things that happened in the story, meaning they happened after the start of the story.

Do you know how to talk about these two different ideas? Do you remember from the dialogue?

To talk about things that happened before the start of the story, use the past perfect: had done.

For example:

  • I hadn’t taken any driving lessons.
  • I had only driven a car twice in my life.

The story was about taking a driving test. You need to use the past perfect to talk about things that had happened before the start of the story.

Let’s see another example:

  • When I was 25, I quit my job and decided to train as a pilot. I had always wanted to learn to fly.

Here, you have a time reference which ‘fixes’ the start of the story: when I was 25.

Then, you use the past perfect to talk about things which happened before that time, further in the past.

If you’re talking about the events of your story, just use the past simple, like this:

  • We drove out of the test centre.
  • We sat in a traffic jam for ages.
  • I had a small accident on the way home.

Using these verb tenses, you can make it clear when things happened in the past, and whether something happened before or after something else.

Do you have a funny story you’d like to share? Let us know in the comments!

Let’s look at one more topic to talk about the past in English.

5. Talking About Regrets in the Past

M: Do you speak any other languages?

S: Not really. I used to speak Spanish, but I haven’t used it for years.

M: I wish I’d started learning other languages when I was younger. It’s so much easier if you start earlier.

S: Yeah, I know what you mean. If only I’d kept my Spanish going…

M: Why don’t you pick it up again? It’d come back.

S: Maybe… You know what, though? I wish I’d spent some time in Latin America when I had the chance. I could have lived there for a year or two, and my Spanish would have got really good.

M: Well, you could still do it, right?

In the dialogue, you saw three different forms you can use to talk about regrets in the past. Do you remember them?

First, you can use wish plus the past perfect to talk about something you regret. For example:

  • I wish I’d learned other languages when I was younger.
  • I wish I hadn’t said that.

Remember that here you’re talking about the opposite of what really happened. If you say I wish I hadn’t said that, you did say something in reality, and now you regret it.

You can also use if only plus the past perfect, like this:

  • If only I’d kept my Spanish going.
  • If only I hadn’t wasted so much time.

The meaning is very similar to wish: you did something, or didn’t do something, in the past, and now you regret it.

Finally, you can sometimes use could have to express regrets in the past, often as part of a longer if-sentence. For example:

  • I could have tried harder.
  • If I hadn’t left things to the last minute, I could have passed easily.

Let’s do one more practice. Think of three regrets that you have. Make three sentences using the language from this section. Try to use all three forms: wish, if only and could have.

Pause the video, and make your sentences now! You can say them aloud, or write them down.

Done? Great! Now, you’ve learned many different ways to talk about the past in English.

When you talk about the past in English, which English past form do you find the most difficult to use? Let us know in the comments, and maybe you’ll get some useful tips!

We hope you enjoyed this spoken English lesson from Oxford Online English. Thanks for watching!

Предложения с «to think about the past»

That leaves me, catching up on work projects and trying not to think about the past.

И мне остаётся заниматься только работой, и стараться не думать о прошлом

I think one of the best parts about this project for me was that I got to hang out with my brother a lot, who lives 2,500 miles away from me.

Я думаю, что одна из лучших частей этого проекта для меня это то, что я много времени проводил с моим братом, который живёт в 4 000 км от меня.

And you may think , But what about the trend?

Вы, наверное, думаете: «А как же нынешний тренд?

Think about autonomous, off-the-grid houses with solar panels, with wind turbines and waste recycling utilities, our new homes producing their own energy and using it to also power the family car.

Представьте себе автономные дома, получающие энергию от солнечных батарей и ветряных турбин, с устройствами по переработке мусора, наши новые дома, производящие энергию сами и питающие ею наши автомобили.

So these are robots and rules in two dimensions, but we can also think about robots and rules in three dimensions.

Итак, это роботы и их правила в двух измерениях, но мы также можем придумать роботов и правила в трёх измерениях.

So if you think about mound-building termites or you think about army ants, they create incredible, complex nest structures out of mud and even out of their own bodies.

Вспомните о термитах — строителях или о кочевых муравьях, которые создают невероятные, сложные по структуре гнёзда из грязи и даже из собственных тел.

So if you think about robots that maybe could move sandbags and could help build levees, or we could think of robots that built out of soft materials and worked together to shore up a collapsed building — so just the same kind of rules in different kinds of bodies.

Можно представить роботов, которые могли бы перемещать мешки с песком и помогать строить дамбы, или мы могли бы придумать роботов, сделанных из мягких материалов, работающих вместе, укрепляя рухнувшее здание, — то есть одни и те же правила, но для разных типов роботов.

Each of these systems that I showed you brings us closer to having the mathematical and the conceptual tools to create our own versions of collective power, and this can enable many different kinds of future applications, whether you think about robots that build flood barriers or you think about robotic bee colonies that could pollinate crops or underwater schools of robots that monitor coral reefs, or if we reach for the stars and we thinking about programming constellations of satellites.

Каждая из систем, которую я вам показала, приближает нас к математическим и концептуальным инструментам для создания собственной версии коллективной силы, и это можно будет применить в разных формах — роботы, которые строят барьеры от наводнений, или роботизированные пчелиные колонии, опыляющие урожаи, или подводные стаи роботов, присматривающие за коралловыми рифами, или, достигнув звёзд, мы задумаемся о программировании созвездий спутников.

And I think the way we talk about physics needs a little modification.

И я считаю, что то, как мы говорим о физике, нужно немного модифицировать.

I think I said something about computers, because it was all I could think of at the time.

Кажется, я сказала что — то о компьютерах, потому что это было всё, что мне пришло на ум.

When someone mentions Cuba, what do you think about ?

Когда кто — то упоминает Кубу, о чём вы думаете?

You think about those missile tests, maybe their notorious leader or his good friend, Dennis Rodman.

Вы подумаете о ракетных испытаниях, о печально известном лидере страны или его хорошем друге, Деннисе Родмане.

Think about how your house was built or your kitchen renovated.

Подумайте о том, как строили ваш дом или делали ремонт на кухне.

Think about it: Would you want your architect to install your toilet?

Только представьте: вы хотели бы, чтобы унитаз вам устанавливал архитектор?

Now, just think about this: even if we were able to dismantle this network and produce products in just one country, which by the way is easier said than done, we would still only be saving or protecting one out of 10 lost manufacturing jobs.
