"Verb" is the word which shows an action in a Sentence. In English
there are two types of verbs "regular and irregular".
Let's talk about regular and irregular verbs. Don't worry, it's not as
complicated as it sounds!
Regular verbs follow a pattern when we change their tenses. For
example, "walk" becomes "walked" in the past tense, and "walking" in the
present participle form. Easy, right?
Now, irregular verbs are a bit trickier. They don't follow the same
pattern as regular verbs. Instead, they change in unique ways when we move
between tenses. For instance, "go" changes to "went" in the past tense,
which is different from just adding "-ed" like regular verbs.
Understanding regular and irregular verbs is super important for speaking
and writing correctly in English. Are you ready? So let's start.
In these verbs we add “ed” at the end of Base form (V1) for formation of
Past simple (V2) and Past Participle (V3).
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Open
Opened
Opened
Want
Wanted
Wanted
Earn
Earned

A. Rule 1:
If the verb ends with "e" simply add "d".
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Live
Lived
Lived
Like
Liked
Liked
Dance
Danced
Danced
Hate
Hated
Hated
B. Rule 2:
If the verb ends with "Vowel + y" simply add "ed").
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Play
Played
Played
Stay
Stayed
Stayed
Enjoy
Enjoyed
Enjoyed
C. Rule 3:
If the verb ends with "Consonant + y" change "y to i" and add "ed" .
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Cry
Cried
Cried
Try
Tried
Tried
Fry
Fried
Fried
D. Rule 4:
If the verb has one syllable, single vowel and ending in single
consonant double the final consonant and add “ed”
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Rip
Ripped
Ripped
Nod
Nodded
Nodded
Stop
Stopped
Stopped
E. Rule 5:
If the verb has two syllables, stress on second syllable and ending in
single consonant double the final consonant and add “ed”
For example:
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)
Prefer
Preferred
Preferred
Commit
Committed
Committed
Submit
Submitted
Submitted
2. Irregular Verbs :
These Verbs form past simple and past participle in different ways.
These are formed mainly in four different patterns. The main change is
in vowels "a,e,i,o,u".
For example:
Sr.No.
Pattern
Base Form (V1)
Past Simple (V2)
Past Participle (V3)

All are Same
Read

Remember, Some verbs can be both regular and irregular.
