Past Simple

Verleden tijd?

Past Simple

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

The past simple is what we call in Dutch: de onvoltooid verleden tijd

'to be' in de verleden tijd is onregelmatig en kent 2 vormen!

NB: Let op het verschil: where = waar en were = waren (=verleden tijd van zijn)

 Regular Verbs

spelling exceptions 1

Als een werkwoord eindigt op een medeklinker + -y, dan verandert de -y in -ie: I carry - I carried

Let op, er verandert niets als het werkwoord eindigt op klinker + -y:

I play - I played

 Regular Verbs

spelling exceptions 2 en 3

Als een werkwoord eindigt op 

-e, dan komt er in de past simple alleen een -d achter: 

I live - I lived

In de past simple wordt de laatste medeklinker verdubbeld als er één klinker voor staat: 

I drop - I dropped

Past Simple - Irregular verbs

Some verbs in English are irregular, this means that in the past tense they don't get '-ed' at the end, but have their own form.

To write -> wrote;      I wrote her a letter last week

to go -> went;            He went to Italy last year

to make -> made;     They made a very nice meal two days ago

Past Simple - Irregular verbs

There are no rules for the irregular verbs, you just have to learn them by heart
