Verbos regulares e irregulares en pasado simple
El pasado simple es un tiempo verbal que se utiliza para hablar de acciones o eventos que comenzaron y terminaron en el pasado. En inglés, los verbos regulares en pasado simple se forman agregando "-ed" a la forma infinitiva del verbo, mientras que los verbos irregulares siguen un patrón especÃfico o se mantienen inalterados.
Verbos regulares en pasado simple
Los verbos regulares en pasado simple se forman de la siguiente manera:
- Verbos que terminan en "-e": Se cambia a "-ed" (e.g., start → started, finish → finished).
- Verbos que terminan en una vocalista y un consonante: Se doubla la consonanta antes de agregar "-ed" (e.g., stop → stopped, plan → planned).
- Verbos que terminan en una consonanta y "-y": Se elimina la "y" y se agrega "-ied" (e.g., try → tried, carry → carried).
Por ejemplo, la lista de verbos regulares en pasado simple en inglés incluye:
- To be: was (I/he/she) were (you/we/they).
- To go: went.
- To do: did.
- To have: had.
- To get: got.
- To eat: ate.
Verbos irregulares en pasado simple

- To be: was (I/he/she) were (you/we/they).
- To go: went.
- To do: did.
- To have: had.

En español, los verbos regulares en pasado simple se forman de la siguiente manera:
- Verbos de la primera conjugación (-ar): Se cambia a "-e" (e.g., trabajar → trabajé).
- Verbos de la segunda y tercera conjugaciones (-er/-ir): Se mantienen inalterados (e.g., coger → cargo, saber → sabÃa).
Por ejemplo, la lista de verbos regulares en pasado simple en español incluye:
- Trabajar: trabajé.
- Coger: cargo.
- Saber: sabÃa.
Es importante mencionar que hay excepciones a estas reglas, como verbos que cambian de forma para indicar la voz activa (he/she/it) en inglés y la forma del pretérito más-que-perfecto en español.
