⚙️PAST PARTICIPLES

  • The past simple and past participle forms of regular verbs are usually the same. They always end in -ed (e.g. visited, worked).

  • The past participle form of irregular verbs can be different from or the same as the past simple form. Most verbs follow one of these rules:
    1. no change (e.g. put, put)
    2. a vowel changes (e.g. rang, rung)
    3. we add -n (e.g. chose, chosen)
    4. a vowel changes and we add -n (e.g. wrote, written)
    5. the past participle is a different word (e.g. was/were, been).

⚙️PAST SIMPLE AND PRESENT

PERFECT VERB FORMS

There are three ways to tell the difference between past simple and present perfect verb forms.

  1. Listen for the difference in pronunciation between the past simple and the past participle form of the verb (e.g. ran vs run).
  2. Listen for the present perfect auxiliaryhave” (‘ve) or “has” (‘s) (e.g. We met him vs We’ve met him).
  3. Listen for time words and phrases (e.g. I’ve watched Star Wars twice this month vs I watched Star Wars twice last month).
