Can you teach me about the past tense?

Answer 1

Yes. The past tense of the verb is for an action that happened and now it's over. It shows that an action took place in the past-- yesterday, last week, a year ago, etc. I ran to catch the bus. (I am not running now; I did it, and now I'm finished.) Maria drove to Boston. (She is no longer driving-- the action has been completed.) Last year, my cousin attended the University of California. Yesterday, the children went to the movies. Also, in English, many verbs form their past tense by adding an -ed: He walked to school. They listened to the professor. But other verbs are irregular and have an unusual past tense: I bought my husband a new computer. David sang in the glee club.

Answer 2

Sure! The past tense is used to talk about actions that have already happened. In English, regular verbs form the past tense by adding "-ed" to the base form (e.g. "walked"). Irregular verbs don't follow a set pattern, so it's important to memorize their past tense forms (e.g. "ate" for "eat").
