Verbs
are subdivided into two groups, regular verbs and irregular verbs, on the
basis of how their past tense and past participles are formed.
Regular Verbs
Most verbs are regular verbs.
Regular verbs are those whose past tense
and past participles are formed by adding a -d or an -ed to the end of the
verb.
Following are good examples of a regular
verb:
*boil, boiled, boiled
*play, played,
played
*live, lived, lived
* try, tried, tried
Sometimes the last consonant must be
doubled before adding the -ed ending. For example:
*plan, planned,
planned
*scan, scanned,
scanned
*travel, travelled,
travelled
*dip, dipped,
dipped
