SIMPLE PAST TENSE - REGULAR AND IRREGULAR VERBS - PART 2




IRREGULAR VERBS
Verbos Irregulares:
Quando falamos dos verbos irregulares, como o próprio nome diz, eles não possuem forma regular para formarem o passado, ou seja, cada verbo tem sua própria forma:

Exemplo:

Presente                      Passado

To do                          did
To buy                        bought
To see                         saw

As regras para formar frase no passado com os verbos irregulares são as mesmas dos verbos regulares, ou seja:

Na forma afirmativa usamos o verbo na sua forma no passado.

Exemplo:

Mary bought a  car  yesterday.

Na forma negativa usamos o auxiliar DID. Lembre-se que neste caso o verbo voltará a sua forma original.

Exemplo: Mary didn't buy a car yesterday.

Na forma interrogativa, novamente teremos que usar o auxiliar DID e o verbo na sua forma original.

Exemplo: Did Mary buy a car yesterday?
