1) The simple past tense is used to talk about past events or states that have finished. It is formed by adding "-ed" to most regular verbs. 2) Verbs ending in a consonant plus "y" change the "y" to "i" and add "ed", except for the verb "play". Verbs ending in a vowel plus consonant usually double the final consonant and add "ed". 3) The simple past tense uses the past form of the verb along with the subject to talk about completed actions or states in the past. It can be used with time expressions like "yesterday" or "last week".

Simple Past Tense
- 1. SIMPLE PAST TENSE REGULARS VERBS
- 2. DEFINITION OF THE SIMPLE PAST TENSE The simple past tense, is the most common way of talking about past events or states which have finished. It is often used with past time references. It is usually formed by adding -ED to the verb. A past event could be one thing that happened in the past, or a repeated thing: I stopped at a zebra crossing. We played tennis every day in August. A state is a situation without an action happening: We stayed at my grandparents' house last summer.
- 3. We always use the simple past when something happened, so it is associated with certain past time expressions: Frequency: often, sometimes, always. I often brought my lunch to school. A definite point in time: last week, when I was a child, yesterday. We saw a good film last week. An indefinite point in time: the other day, ages ago, a long time ago People lived in caves a long time ago.
- 4. • If a word ends in an E we just add the D at the end of the verb. Example> move-moved Live lived Love loved Smile smiled Dance danced
- 5. • verbs ending in a consonant Y take ied in the simple past. This means that we change the letter Y for an i Examples marry = married carry = carried study = studied the only exception to this rule is the word play Example paly-played
- 6. • If the word ends in a Consonant, and before is a vowel, we double the final consonant and add ED. Example> travel-travelled Stop stopped Admit admitted Plan planned Refer referred Commit committed
- 7. GRAMMATICAL STRUCTURE Subject+verb (in past form)+complement. Example: She played soccer yesterday. They studied math last week.
- 8. FORMING A NEGATIVE •Negatives in the simple past are formed by adding didn't (informal) or did not (formal) before the simple form of the verb. The verb BE is an exception to this; in the case of BE, we just add n't (informal) or not (formal) after "was" or "were":
- 10. Did she arrive? Did I walk? Did you walk? Did he walk? Did we walk? Did they walk?
