Regular
Verbs
| Here's the good news: Most
English verbs follow a regular pattern. They are "regular". They
change in the same way depending on who is doing the action. For
example: |
 |
| I talk |
you talk |
he talks, she talks, it talks |
they talk |
we talk |
| I love |
you love |
he loves, she loves, it loves |
they love |
we love |
| I open |
you open |
he opens, she opens, it opens |
they open |
we open |
| I walk |
you walk |
he walks, she walks, it walks |
they walk |
we walk |
| I watch |
you watch |
he watches, she watches, it watches |
they watch |
we watch |
These types of verbs are also called
"main verbs" because they tell what the subject does or did. You will change
the spelling for these verbs depending on when the action takes place.
With regular verbs, when you talk about an action that happened in the
past, you add -d or -ed to the verb:
| talk |
talked |
| love |
loved |
| open |
opened |
| walk |
walked |
| watch |
watched |
