Were/was going to mennyire használatos az angol ill.europában használt angol nyelvekben?

Unfulfilled past events

These describe events intended to take place, but which did not happen.

I was about to do it, but I started doing something else.

How are you? I was going to phone you...(but I didn't)

ezek nyelvkönyvből vannak. Azt jelenti, hogy akartam valamit a múltban, de nem következett be. Nem hinném, hogy annyira nagyon használatos, de most már tudod mit jelent, szóval mindegy.
