Regular Verbs
English regular verbs change their form very little (unlike
irregular verbs). The past tense and past
participle of regular verbs end in -ed, for example:
work, worked, worked
But you should note the following points:
1. Some verbs can be both regular and irregular, for
example:
learn, learned, learned
learn, learnt,
learnt
2. Some verbs change their meaning depending on whether they are
regular or irregular, for example "to hang":
| regular |
hang, hanged, hanged |
to kill or die, by dropping with a rope around the
neck |
| irregular |
hang, hung, hung |
to fix something (for example, a picture) at the top so
that the lower part is free |
3. The present tense of some regular verbs is the same as the
past tense of some irregular verbs:
| regular |
found, founded, founded |
| irregular |
find, found, found |
