The Champion of Panjat Pinang Recounting means talking about past experiences. Most of the time we include details of what happened in the past when recounting. At school, teachers also ask students to recount their past experiences. For example, they ask the students to recount their last holiday experiences or their activities on the last Independence Day. To recount these past experiences, we need to use Past Simple verbs. The Past Simple verbs are usually formed by adding ‘d’, ‘ed’, or ‘ied’ to the base verb. Look at the following examples: celebrate + d → celebrated participate + d → participated try + [change the ‘y’ to ‘i’ ] + ed → tried We call these regular verbs. Many other verbs, however, are irregular. These irregular verbs do not really follow any rules. They need to be learned. See the following examples: win → won make → made hold → held Have a look at the following examples taken from the previous dialogues. Table 1.1 Past tense verbs Regular verbs Irregular verbs I participated in a tandem race, tug of war, Today, our school held many games and Panjat Pinang, and sack race. competitions to celebrate Independence Day.
