Use of たこと with te-form verbs


I've come across the following sentence

> 叫んでたことを知ってたよ。

I know that you can do `past tense verbs + こと` but I've never seen `te-form
verbs + たこと`. So what does it mean using te-form in this case?




たこと is nonsensical. It is not a word that I know of. (タコとエビ makes sense but
consists of three words. Just a facetious aside)

叫んで **い** たことを知って **い** たよ -> 叫んでたことを知ってたよ

Please see

[Just like "ら抜き" is there also "い抜き" such as "見ている" --> (い抜く) -->
"見てる"?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/33463/30454)

[ておく → とく in other contexts; similar 2-kana to 1-kana
shortcuts?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/30995/30454)
