Group 3 Ainiyyah Dwi Salsabila Muharam Syaza Halwa Amanina Regular verbs follow consistent rules for forming the past tense and past participle by adding "-ed" or "-d" to the base form. There are exceptions for verbs ending in certain letters like "w", "x", "y" that don't double the final consonant. Regular verbs have the same simple past tense and past participle form, unlike irregular verbs where the forms can be the same or different.

REGULAR VERBS

Regular Verb
A regular verb is one that conforms to the usual rule for forming its simple past tense and its past participle.

In English, the "usual" rule is to add "-ed" or "-d" to the base form of the verb to create the past forms.

Spelling Rules for Creating the Past Forms of Regular Verbs


•For regular verbs, the "simple past tense" and "past participle" are formed like this:

Add "ed" to most verbs:


•jump > jumped
•paint > painted

If a verb of one syllable ends [consonant-vowel-consonant], double the final consonant and add "ed":
•chat > chatted
•stop > stopped
If the final consonant is "w," "x," or "y," don't double it :
• sew > sewed
• play > played
• fix > fixed

If the last syllable of a longer verb is stressed and ends [consonant-vowel-consonant], double the last consonant
and add "ed“:
• incur > incurred
• prefer > preferred

If the first syllable of a longer verb is stressed and the verb ends [consonant-vowel-consonant], just add "ed":
• Open > opened
• enter > entered
• swallow > swallowed

If the verb ends "e," just add "d":


• thrive > thrived
• guzzle > guzzled
If the verb ends [consonant + "y"], change the "y" to an "i" and add "ed":
• cry > cried
• fry > fried

Comparing Regular Verbs to Irregular Verbs


Regular verbs contrast with irregular verbs, which form their simple past tenses and past participles in a
variety of ways.

With a regular verb, the simple past tense and the past participle are the same. For example:

Simple Past
Base Form Past Participle
Tense
paint painted has painted

yawn yawned has yawned


dance danced has danced
With irregular verbs, however, the past forms can be same or different. For example :

Base Form Simple Past Tense Past Participle


run ran has run
grow grew has grown
tell told has told
bleed bled has bled
