We used Simple Past Tense to talk about situations or actions in the past.
There are some important aspects we need to take into account when using Simple
Past Tense: Types of verbs, -ed spelling and pronunciation rules, and affirmative,
negative and interrogative sentences.
Based on the Simple Past Tense conjugation patterns, we can say that there are two
groups of verbs: regular and irregular verbs.
Not all the words that end in -ed are verbs in the Past Tense. You can find -ed ending in Past Participle
verbs and in Adjectives. However, the spelling and pronunciation rules are the same.
