You can recognize past tense sentences by identifying the use of past tense verbs (e.g., walked, ate, laughed) and past tense verb forms (e.g., was, were, had). These verbs signal that the action or state of being described in the sentence occurred in the past. Additionally, some time markers like yesterday, last week, or in 1999 can also indicate the past tense.
