bonjour,

imparfait.
when you describe a situation (be it a scene, a person, or the whether) in the past, it is imparfait.

  • The PC will describe a specific action that took place at a precise time. Ils sont entrés – they came in. When used in the same sentence, Imparfait will be used for the background action, the longer action that's going on, and Passé-composé for the specific shorter action.
