1. What is the Past Tense?

• The past tense is used to describe actions that have already happened.
• Verbs change form to show the past tense.

---

2. Regular vs. Irregular Past Tense Verbs

• Regular past tense verbs are formed by adding -ed to the base form (e.g., “walk” → “walked”).
• Irregular past tense verbs do not follow this rule. They change in different ways, and we have to learn their past forms.

---

3. What are Irregular Past Tense Verbs?

• Irregular verbs do not add -ed to form the past tense.
• Instead, the spelling of the verb may change completely.
• Examples:
  • Go → Went
  • Eat → Ate
  • Buy → Bought

5. How to Identify Irregular Past Tense Verbs in Sentences

• Look for verbs that don’t end in -ed but still show past actions.
• Example Sentences:
  • Yesterday, I went to the park. (“Went” is the past tense of “go.”)
  • She ate an apple for lunch. (“Ate” is the past tense of “eat.”)
  • He took his book to school. (“Took” is the past tense of “take.”)
