plants.

RULES :


 A) Most verbs are regular and show this regularity by adding -ed in the end.
              Examples  :               work                       worked        
                                 
rain                         rained
                                         start                          started




B) If  the verb  ends  in   -e   we  only  add   -d


     Examples :             live                  lived
                                    love                 loved
                                    like                  liked


 C) If the verb ends in a consonant plus  -y  you have to turn the y into        -ied

  Examples :               study              studied
                                  carry               carried
                                  hurry               hurried
                    

 D ) But if the verb ends in a vowel (a,e,i,o,u) plus -y you have to add          only -ed

Examples :              play               played
                               stay               stayed
                               enjoy             enjoyed

Sometimes you have to double the last consonant if the verb has
   1 syllable , ending in a single consonant ,  proceded by a short vowel .     ( If ends - consonant - vowel - consonant )

Examples  :                stop                stopped
                                plan                planned
                                swap               swapped


   

 NEGATIVE : Didn´t = Did not 
                      Subject +didn´t+infinitive
ENGLISH
