Hi. In the classroom today you will learn about irregular verbs.

An irregular verb does not take "ed", "d", or "t" to form the simple past and past participle as do regular verbs.

The past participle of a regular verb is usually identical to the simple past form as with TALK which becomes TALKED or WALK which becomes WALKED.

The past participle of an irregular verb is often different.

CHOOSE is an example of an irregular verb.

She had to CHOOSE between two pairs of shoes. After an hour she CHOSE the expensive pair.

Notice the two forms, CHOOSE and CHOSE are different.

BRING is also an example of an irregular verb.

They asked us to BRING food to the party. We BROUGHT enough for everyone.

Again, notice the two forms, BRING and BROUGHT are different.

You will need to memorize which words are irregular verbs in order to recognize them in a sentence.

Until next time.

Take the tests

Take the tests below. These are tests of your understanding of irregular verbs. There are three tests with 50 questions each for a total of 150 questions. Good luck.
