AFFIRMATIVE: 
Subject  + Verb [in past form] + complement. 
 I saw a movie yesterday. 
NEGATIVE: 
Subject  + Auxiliary verb (Did) + negation (NOT) + verb 
(infinitive) + complement. 
 He didn’t hear the telephone. 
INTERROGATIVE. 
Auxiliary verb (DID) + Subject  + verb (infinitive) + 
complement and ?. 
 Did you play soccer yesterday?
How can we transform a verb into Past ? 
In case it is a 
Regular Verb 
we just add 
+ 
The 
ED 
Suffixe 
Example: 
Work 
Play 
Enjoy 
Worked 
Played 
Enjoyed
Exceptions in spelling 
when adding ed 
Example 
After a final E you only need to 
add D 
Love – LOVED 
When letter L or T goes as final 
consonant after a vowel MUST 
be doubled 
Admit – ADMITTED 
Travel – TRAVELLED 
Final Y after a consonant must 
change to I and then you add 
the ED suffixe. 
Hurry – HURRIED
On the one 
hand I know 
how to 
recognize a 
verb in its 
Past tense 
But on the 
other hand, I 
still don’t 
know about 
the Irregular 
Verbs
There are plenty of Irregular Verbs; NONE OF 
THEM CAN BE TRANSFORMED BY 
ADDING JUST  ED. 
You can check this links to see a list of these 
verbs.
