    Irregular Verbs

    • Irregular verbs in English change their form in the past simple and past participle, unlike regular verbs which add "ed".
    • These verbs are categorized as irregular as they do not adopt the standardized rule for conjugation.
    • To properly use irregular verbs, it’s essential to memorize their different forms.
    • The table includes three columns: Base Form, Past Simple, and Past Participle.
    • The base form is the infinitive form, like "go," "eat," or "think."
    • The past simple is used to talk about actions that happened in the past, like "went," "ate," or "thought."
    • The past participle is used with certain verb tenses, like the perfect tenses, and with passive voice.
    • For instance, "has gone," “had eaten," or "have thought."
    • These forms are often used in combination with auxiliary verbs like "have," "has," or "had."
    • Many common verbs in English are irregular, such as "be," "become," "begin," "break," "bring," "buy," "catch," "do," "eat," "fall," "get," "go," "have," "hear," "keep," "know," "make," "say," "see," "take," and "tell."
    • Memorizing these verbs will help you construct correct sentences in past tenses and perfect tenses.
