Which of the following sentences is in the past perfect tense?
- “I had been hitchhiking for miles before someone picked me up.”
- “I have seen some weird things out here on the road.”

Hint:
Past perfect tense is quite an easy tense to understand and to use. This tense talks about the 'past in the past'.
The correct answer is: “Unfortunately, I hadn’t eaten before I left home that day.”
The past perfect tense says that an action was completed at a time before another action happened in the past. The formula of past perfect tense is Subject + had + past participle. It doesn't matter if the subject is singular or plural, the formula doesn't change. 'Unfortunately, I hadn't eaten before I left home that day', so it is an example of past perfect negative.
