Regular Verbs

English regular verbs change their form very little


(unlike irregular verbs). The past tense and past
participle of regular verbs end in -ed, for example:
work, worked, worked
But you should note the following points:
1. Some verbs can be both regular and irregular, for
example:
learn, learned, learned
learn, learnt, learnt
2. Some verbs change their meaning depending on
whether they are regular or irregular, for example "to
hang":
regular

hang,
hanged,
hanged

to kill or die, by dropping with


a rope around the neck

irregular hang, hung, to fix something (for example,


hung
a picture) at the top so that
the lower part is free
3. The present tense of some regular verbs is the same
as the past tense of some irregular verbs:
regular

found, founded, founded

irregular find, found, found
