Answer :
To form the correct past tense of verbs, we add '-ed' to the base form of regular verbs. However, not all verbs follow this rule, especially irregular verbs. Here’s how we form the -ed forms for the verbs provided:
Stop → Stopped
- When you add '-ed' to verbs ending in a short vowel followed by a consonant like 'stop,' you double the consonant: 'stopped.'
Dance → Danced
- For verbs that end in 'e,' add 'd' to form the past tense: 'danced.'
Study → Studied
- If a verb ends in a consonant + 'y,' change 'y' to 'i' and add '-ed': 'studied.'
For the verbs 'write' and 'run,' they are irregular, and they do not simply add '-ed':
Write → Wrote
- 'Write' changes to 'wrote' in the past tense.
Run → Ran
- 'Run' changes to 'ran' in the past tense.
Irregular verbs need to be memorized as they do not follow the simple '-ed' addition rule.
