| Definition of a regular verb |
- A regular verb:
- also known as a weak verb
- takes "ed", "d", or "t" to form the
simple past and past participle
- When a regular verb ends in "y", change the "y" to "i" (in
many cases you should also double the end
consonant before adding "ed")
- The past participle of a regular verb is usually identical
to the past form, while the past participle of an
irregular verb is often different
