PAST SIMPLE - REGULAR VERBS

Para formar el pasado simple de los verbos regulares se añade la terminación -ED a la raíz del verbo correspondiente.
walk—- walked        look—–looked               listen—listened          explain——explained
A) Según sea la terminación del verbo, a veces es necesario hacer algunos cambios:

1) Si el verbo termina en -y precedida de una consonante, se cambia la -y por -i y se añade la terminación -ED

hurry—— hurried                    study—–studied               reply—- replied

2) Si el verbo termina en -e, sólo se añade la -D         

arrive——arrived                    close—–closed

 3) Algunos de los verbos regulares forman el pasado duplicando la consonante final y añadiendo -ED cuando su última sílaba está formada por una vocal seguida de una consonante y sobre ella recae el énfasis al pronunciarla.

 stop—–stopped                   travel——travelled               unwrap——

El pasado simple es igual para todas las personas   (es muy fácil)
