Past Simple - Regular Verbs

After a regular verb you put '-ed'

I walk -> I walked

He walks -> He walked

They walk -> They walked

Past Simple - Regular verbs

Spelling:
A verb ending on a consonant + -y, ---> -y in -ie:

• I carry - I carried

No change with a vowel + -y :

• I play - I played

When a verb ends with an -e, then just + -d 

• I live - I lived

Final consonant is doubled when it ends with vowel + consonant:

• I drop - I dropped

VOWELS

Past Simple - IRregular verbs

Spelling:
THESE DON"T FOLLOW THE NORMAL RULE OF VERB + D/ED/IED

SO YOU HAVE TO LEARN THEM BY HEART

THAT'S WHY YOU STUDIED THE IRREGULAR VERBS AND HAD A TEST

BUY:  She bought a shirt yesterday

Did she buy a shirt?
