3 Irregular verbs are just that – IRREGULAR. In English, regular verbs consist of three main parts: the root form (present), the (simple) past, and the past participle. i.e. dance, danced, have danced Regular verbs have an -ed ending added to the root verb for both the simple past and past participle. Irregular verbs do not follow this pattern, and instead take on an alternative pattern. i.e. sing, sang, sung There is no rhyme or reason! The only way to learn irregular verbs is to memorize them.
