Je perdis l’équilibre

I don’t understand why this translates in the present as well as in the historic past?

This question relates to:French lesson "Recognising regular -dre verbs in the historic past in French (Le Passé Simple)"

Hi kate,

"I lost my balance" is the verb 'to lose' in the past tense.

"I lose my balance"

would be the present tense.

Hope this helps!
