Past Simple Exercises PDF, Simple past tense indicates an action that took place in the past. To form the simple past of most English verbs, simply add –ed to the base form.

  • If the base form ends in consonant + y, change the y to i before adding –ed
  • If the base form ends in consonant + e, add –d.
  • If the base form ends in vowel + consonant, double the consonant if the last syllable is stressed or the word has only one syllable.

However, many common English verbs are irregular in past tense. These verbs change forms completely in simple past. For example: make → made take → took write → wrote go → gone

  • To form the negative of a simple past tense verb, use:

Did (the simple past tense form of do) + not + base form of another verb.

  • To form a question in simple past tense, move the auxiliary did to the beginning of the sentence, in front of the subject.
