    6TH FORM

    SIMPLE

    FORM
    >> We make the past simple of regular verbs with the suffix ed.
    e.g. They played football yesterday.
    >> To make the negative we put the auxiliary verb did not (the short
    form is didnt) before the main verb in its root form. The main verb
    does NOT have the suffix -ed in the negative.
    e.g. He didnt watch TV last night.
    >> In short answers we use the personal pronoun and did or didnt.
    We do not repeat the main verb.
    e.g. Did you like the film?
    Yes, I did.
    No, I didnt.

    SPELLING RULES
    >> With the verbs ending in e, we only add d in the past simple
    positive.
    dance danced
    like liked
    >> With verbs endind in a consonant and y, the y goes and we add
    ied.
    cry cried
    study - studied
    With verbs ending in a vowel and y, ed add ed as usual.
    play played
    stay - stayed
    >> With single-syllabled verbs ending in a vowel and a consonant, we
    double the consonant and add ed.
    stop + p = stopped
    plan + n = planned

    USE
    >> We use the past simple to tlk about something that happened at a
    specific time in the past.
