Past tense
There is only one form of the verb in the past tense for all subjects, except in the verb TO BE which has 2 forms: was and were
FOR IRREGULAR VERBS:
The simple past of irregular verbs can end in a variety of ways, with no consistent pattern. There is no rule for these verbs. They should be learned by heart.
FOR REGULAR VERBS:
Rule #1: The past tense of regular verbs is formed adding ‘ed’ to the end of the verb
Rule #2: If the verb ends in ‘e’ just add ‘d’
Rule #3: If the verb ends in a consonant+vowel+consonant, and the stress is at the end of the word, double the final consonant and add ‘ed’
Rule #4: If the verb ends in 2 vowels+consonant, or 1 vowel+consonant and the stress is not at the end, don’t double the final consonant, only add ‘ed’
Rule #5: If the verb ends in ‘c’ add ‘ked’
