I came across this verb:
捕【と】らえられていた
It could have been pretty much any verb really. I tried to parse the different forms the verb has been assigned. Here's my process:
捕【と】らえる - (Transitive verb) To catch
捕【と】らえられる - (Passive form) - To get caught
捕【と】らえられていた - (Passive, past-progressive form) - Had been getting caught
Question: I want to know if my understanding of these forms (combined) is correct or not.
In other words, 捕【と】らえられていた = Had been getting caught?
