Past Tense Verbs
regular vs. irregular
Past tense verbs
Past tense verbs are used to communicate about events
that happened in the past.
The past means something that happened the minute
before, the hour before, the day before, the month
before, the year before, and so on.
Anything that happened before right NOW is in the past.
Regular vs. irregular past tense verbs
English has two types of past tense verbs.
Regular and irregular
Regular past tense verbs add an -ed ending to the verb.
walk = walked, talk = talked, listen = listened, look = looked, watch
= watched, dance = danced, study = studied, stop = stopped
Irregular past tense verbs DO NOT follow this rule. Irregular past
tense verbs must be memorized.
go = went, become = became, is/are = was/were, do = did, buy =
bought, bring = brought, hear = heard, come = came, drive =
Common Uses of Past Tense
We use the past tense when…
We tell a story
We explain a situation that happened earlier
Someone asks, “What have you been doing?” or “What
did you do today, yesterday, etc.?”
Examples
I went to a dance class this morning.
We watched a movie last night.
I rode my bike yesterday.
I hiked a lot last week.
She studied for her test.
They had a picnic in the park.
Do you know which verbs are regular and which are
Practice on English Village

Join the “My Best Day” discussion and tell us about what happened on your
best day.
Join the discussion about challenges, your favorite vacation, or your most
exciting experience, and use the past tense to tell us about it.
You have to use your English to improve your English!
