Past Simple Verbs: Regular and Irregular

Let’s talk about the use of the past simple tense. Our focus today: the interplay between regular and irregular verbs in this grammatical tableau.

1. Regular Verbs: The -ed Transformation

Regular verbs, like diligent apprentices, follow a predictable path. Their past simple forms emerge by adding -ed to the base form of the verb. Behold the transformation:

Regular verbs

2. Irregular Verbs: The Shape-Shifters

Irregular verbs, like enigmatic sorcerers, defy convention. Their past simple forms are unique and must be committed to memory. Let us unravel their mysteries:
