VERBOS REGULARES E IRREGULARES

In simple past tense verbs are classified into regular and irregular.

Spelling of Regular verbs

We form the past simple of most regular verbs by adding -ed to the main verb.
wash – washed
kiss – kissed
play - played

For verbs ending in -e, we add –d.

love – loved
like - liked

For verbs ending in a consonant + y, we drop the –y and add –ied .

cry – cried
carry – carried

For verbs ending in a stressed vowel between two consonants, we double the last
consonant and add -ed.
stop – stopped
fit – fitted

Spelling of Irregular verbs

For irregular verbs their spelling in the simple past tense is totally different, check these
examples:

think - thought
see - saw
write - wrote
say - said
draw - drew
do - did

As you could notice in this case their ending is different and there is no rule, for this
reason you need to learn them by heart.

Two sisters and the cat

Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Smith are sisters. Mrs. Wilson lives in a house in Duncan and Mrs.
Smith lives in a condominium in Victoria. One day Mrs. Wilson visited her sister. When her sister
answered the door, Mrs. Wilson saw tears in her eyes. "What's the matter?" she asked. Mrs. Smith
said "My cat Sammy died last night and I have no place to bury him".

She began to cry again. Mrs. Wilson was very sad because she knew her sister loved
the cat very much. Suddenly Mrs. Wilson said "I can bury your cat in my garden in Duncan and you
can come and visit him sometimes." Mrs. Smith stopped crying and the two sisters had tea together
and a nice visit.

It was now five o'clock and Mrs. Wilson said it was time for her to go home. She put on
her hat, coat and gloves and Mrs. Smith put the dead Sammy into a shopping bag. Mrs. Wilson took
the shopping bag and walked to the bus stop. She waited a long time for the bus so she bought a
newspaper. When the bus arrived, she got on the bus, sat down and put the shopping bag on the
floor beside her feet. She then began to read the newspaper. When the bus arrived at her bus stop,
