I think there are only two simple tenses. They are called simple tenses because they only have one verb, no auxiliary verb or be verb etc.

The main uses of present simple are to talk about:

something that is true now -- We live in Whangarei.

something that is always true -- The sun risesin the east.

something we do again and again IE habit -- I get up at 7:00am.

The main use of past simple is to talk about:

something that happened in the past and is finished -- I went to the beach on Saturday.

Present simple and past simple can be used together:

We usually go to the beach for our summer holidays but this year we went to the mountains.

present simple (go) tells about something that is a habit. Past simple (went) tells about something in the past that is finished now.

How do you use the simple tense verbs?

To use simple tense verbs, simply conjugate the verb according to the subject and tense. In present simple tense, add an 's' for third person singular subjects (he, she, it). In past simple tense, typically add '-ed' for regular verbs or use the irregular form. In future simple tense, use 'will' + base form of the verb. Remember to use the base form of the verb for all other subjects.

Simple past tense of stomp?

The simple past is easy- it's the most common form of past tense used, and you probably use it all the time. The simple past tense is merely a completed action, something that took place and ended. To form it, you just add an -ed ending to the verb you want to use (of course some verbs, like "taken," are an exception to that rule).Hence, the simple past tense of stomp is stomped.
