Past Simple
You use the past simple when something happened in the past and is finished.

The past simple is what in Dutch is called the verleden tijd.

 Regular Verbs
After a regular verb you put -ed

I walk -> I walked
He walks -> He walked
They walk -> They walked

 Regular Verbs Spelling

When a verb ends with -e, only add -d in the past simple:
I live - I lived

You double the last consonent (medeklinker) if there is one vowel before it: 
I drop - I dropped

 Regular Verbs Spelling

If a verb ends with a consonant + -y, the -y changes to -ie:

Look out, it will not change when it ends with a vowel (klinker) + -y:
I play - I played

to go -> went; He went to Italy last year
to make -> made: They made a very nice meal two days ago
