TRANSCRIPT:
Hello.
My name is Emma, and today I am going to teach you how to learn irregular past tense verbs.
So, I'm going to teach you some easy methods and tips on how to do this.
So, first of all, let's talk about what is an irregular past tense verb.
Well, I have here two sentences.
The first one says "yesterday I wanted to travel".
The second sentence says "yesterday I ate the cake".
So, in English, when we're talking about the past tense, so something that happened in
the past, like "yesterday", "last month", "last year", we need to do something to the
verb.
So, most verbs follow this "ed" rule, which you might have learned before.
"Learned" is an example of this.
For many verbs, we add "ed" to the end to make it a past tense verb.
But not all verbs follow this, unfortunately, in English.
We have these things called irregular verbs.
Irregular verbs are verbs like "ate".
We don't say "he ated the cake".
That would make things really easy, but unfortunately, English is not the easiest language.
Those of you learning probably know this.
So, you might think, "Why do we sometimes use 'ed' and why do we sometimes have these
verbs that are irregular, like 'ate'?"
Well, the reason...
So, we have this "Why?
Why, Emma?" and we have this sad face.
The reason English is so complicated, it's not because I created the language; it's because
the old parts of English have these irregular verbs.
So, any verb that's extremely old from the beginning or the early days of English, they
have...
They're the irregular verbs.
So, for example, "spoke" is the irregular verb of "speak".
We already talked about "ate", which is the irregular verb of "eat"; "did" is the irregular
past tense verb of "do"; or "sang", that's the irregular past tense of "sing".
So, all of these verbs are very old.
Now, the newer verbs in English are the ones that are the easy ones because you just add
"ed".
So, for example, "decided", "visited", "wanted", these are all later verbs in English.
And even when in English we make new verbs, we usually use the "ed".
So, for example, "googled", "I googled my name."
Or even "zoomed", a lot of people use "zoom".
We've turned it into a verb, "zoomed".
"Yesterday, I zoomed my sister."
So, in this video, we're not going to focus on these easy, regular verbs; we're going
to focus on the hard, irregular verbs, and I'm going to teach you how to learn these
verbs.
So, let's get started.
Alright, so, the first part of my method for learning irregular past tense verbs is to
learn the most common ones first.
So, here are the most common.
These are the most commonly used in English.
There's many irregular verbs.
I recommend you start with the most commonly used ones first and memorize them.
You might already know a lot of these already.
So, for example, the verb "be", here's the present tense, which might be "I am", "he
is", "they are".
If we're talking about the past, we don't use "ed" here; it's irregular.
We can use "was" or "were".
"He was", "they were".
Most of you probably know the "be" verb.
The next one after that is "have".
"Have" in the present form becomes "has" or "have", so "I have", "she has", it depends
on the subject.
If we're talking about "he", "they", "we", "you", it might change the verb, so we have
"have" or "has".
Well, what's the past tense of this verb?
It's "had".
So, if I'm talking about last year, last year I had a lot of fun, I could say.
So, this is an irregular verb; it's irregular because it does not end in "ed".
It's following a different set of rules; it's an irregular past tense verb. […] Receive SMS online on sms24.me
