Present tense or Past tense should be used?
Hello. Please help!
A woman is pragnent. Then I ask,
1. How did you know you are pragnent?
2. How did you know you were pragnent?
The reason I'm confused is that, I heard someone said that "How did you know we were done?" And actually, their relationship ended.
Please help! Thanks!
