1 Past Tense Verbs

2 Past Tense Verbs Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action finished in the past; could be Single event, or Set or sequence of events Examples: Two years ago, we traveled to Japan. She washed her car yesterday. We did not (didn't) travel to Korea. I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim. Did you add flour, pour in the milk, and then add the eggs?

3 Past Tense Verbs Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action finished in the past; can include duration (i.e., continue for a time) Examples: I lived in Brazil for two years. Kristy studied German for five months in Germany. They sat at the beach all day. We talked on the phone for thirty minutes.

4 Past Tense Verbs How does the Simple Past differ from Past Perfect?
Simple past is “simply” a statement about the past; it does not relate or compare the statement to a specific point in time – or more precisely to another event at a specific point in time I lived in Brazil for two years. I had lived in Brazil for two years before I saw the Amazon River. Kristy studied German for five months in Germany. Kristy had studied German for five months in Germany before traveling around Europe for 7 months.

5 Past Tense Verbs Past facts or general statements, which were true in the past; may or may not still be true Examples: Jean was shy as a child, but now she is very outgoing. Tom didn't like tomatoes before. Did you live in Texas when you were a kid? People paid much more to make cell phone calls in the past.

6 Using the Past Tense The Past Tense is always formed using the Past Tense Form and is the same for 1st, 2nd , 3rd person; singular / plural Examples: I walked, you walked, he walked, and she walked, we walked, you walked, and they walked. I ran, you ran, he ran, and she ran, we ran, you ran, and they ran. However, the Past Tense Form still has the two cases: Regular and Irregular The Past Tense form and the Past Participle form are the forms that most often vary from the regular form

7 Forming Past Tense Form
For regular past tense verbs, add some form of “ed” Typically, add “ed” Examples: boil -> boiled; hand -> handed However, if the verb ends in an “e”, simply add “d” Examples: hope -> hoped; create -> created; love -> loved

8 Forming Past Tense Form
For regular past tense verbs, add some form of “ed” Typically add “ed”; if verb ends in an “e”, simply add “d” If verb ends in “consonant + y”; change the “y” to “i” and add “ed” Examples: study -> studied; try -> tried; cry -> cried

9 Forming Past Tense Form
For regular past tense verbs, add some form of “ed” Typically add “ed”; if verb ends in an “e”, simply add “d” If verb ends in “consonant + y”; change the “y” to “i” and add “ed” If last syllable contains one vowel followed by a consonant; double the consonant and add “ed” (but not for “w” or “y”) Examples: tap -> tapped; commit -> committed stop -> stopped

10 Pronunciation Guide Stops include sounds like “b”, “p”, “d”, “t”, “k”, and “g” Air flow is actually “stopped”, followed by a “puff of air” Sibilants Sibilants are produced by forcing air out toward your teeth. Characterized by turbulence; examples: a hissing sound (sssss) or a buzzing sound (zzzzz) the sound teachers make when they want you to be quiet (shhhh!), or a word like church or chair (ch) Also the “f”/”v” sounds as well as the “k” sound

11 Pronunciation Guide We pronounce the final “d” in three different ways
As a “d” As a “t” As an “id”
