IRREGULAR VERB LIST

The simple past is used to refer to actions that were completed


before the present time. The process of performing the action is
not important. What matters is that the action was completed in
the past. The action may have been in the recent past or a long
time ago.

A participle is a form of a verb that can be used as an adjective or


combined with the verb to be to construct different verb tenses.
Most past participles are formed by adding -ed to the base form
of a verb (or just -d if the verb already ends in -e). However, there
are a handful of verbs with irregular past participles:
