The past tense – the first step

The past tense – the first step

Mastering past tenses requires training one’s ears and lots of practicing the usage of past forms for both regular as well as irregular verbs. To help you get acquanited with these structures, we’ve prepared three short videos.

Regular verbs

The first one presents regular verbs, and it will definitely help you get acquainted with the pronunciation. That’s why it’s worth focusing especially on the final sounds: /t/, /d/ and /id/.

Irregular verbs

The other two show how to build “Past Simple” with the past forms of verbs, and also “Present Perfect”, “Past Perfect”, or even passive voice.

Good luck! When you take the first step, you will build simple sentences, we also encourage you to expand your vocabulary and familiarize yourself with a more extensive list of irregular verb forms (here).
