Principal Parts of Regular Verbs

Study Guide: Principal Parts of Regular Verbs


A verb's tenses are made from four basic forms. These basic forms are called the verb's principal parts.

PRESENT                      PRESENT PARTICIPLE               PAST                PAST PARTICIPLE

watch                           (am, is, are) watching                         watched               (has, have, had) watched

study                            (am, is, are) studying                         studied                 (has, have, had) studied 


A regular verb forms its past and past participle by adding -ed or -d to the present form.

  • The present and the past forms can be used by themselves as verbs
  • The present participle and the past participle are always used with a helping verb.

Great Study Guide for ELA


The
tense of a verb shows when something happens. Verbs in the present tense show action that happens now. Some present tense singular verbs end with -s or -es. Most present tense plural verbs do not end with -s or -es.                      
                       An inventor creates a new tool. Inventions serve us well.
Verbs in the
past tense show action that has already happened. Most verbs in the past tense end in -ed.
                       Not long ago, electronics changed the world.
Verbs in the
future tense show action that will happen. Add will (or shall ) to most verbs to show the future tense.
                       Many more inventions will appear.
• Some regular verbs change spelling when
-ed is added. For verbs ending in e, drop the e and add -ed: used, celebrated. For verbs ending in a consonant and y, change the y to i and add -ed: spied, lied.
• For most one-syllable verbs that end in one vowel followed by one consonant, double the consonant and add
-ed: wrapped, patted.
• Irregular verbs change spelling to form the past tense:
are/were, bring/brought, eat/ate, find/found, fly/flew, go/went, have/had, is/was, make/made, see/saw, sit/sat, take/took, tell/told, think/thought, write/wrote.
                                                              

Good morning!

My friends I must say  how pleased I am with our progress with our ANET Lesson! Almost EVERYONE improved. I can see the hard work paying off, keep it up!
