When do you use the simple past tense of the verb how do we form it?

Answer 1

Use past simple when you are talking about something that happened in the past, something that is now finished.

We walked to the cinema. They ate the cake.

To form past simple you add -ed to the verb. These verbs are called regular verbs.

walk - walked listen - listened organize - organized

BUT not all verbs form past tense by adding -ed. Some verbs are irregular. These verbs you don't add -ed to make past simple you have another word or sometimes the same word. You have to memorize irregular verbs.

run - ran cut - cut dig - dug think - thought

Answer 2

The simple past tense is used to describe actions that happened at a specific time in the past. To form the simple past tense of regular verbs, add -ed to the base form of the verb. Irregular verbs have their own unique past tense forms that need to be memorized.
