Como hacer una oración en presente simple


How do we make the Past Simple Tense?

To make the past simple tense, we use:
  • past form only
    or
  • auxiliary did + base form
Here you can see examples of the past form and base form for irregular verbs and regular verbs:
V1
base
V2
past
V3
past participle
regular verbwork
explode
like
worked
exploded
liked
worked
exploded
liked
The past form for all regular verbs ends in -ed.
irregular verbgo
see
sing
went
saw
sang
gone
seen
sung
The past form for irregular verbs is variable. You need to learn it by heart.
You do not need the past participle form to make the past simple tense. It is shown here for completeness only.
The structure for positive sentences in the past simple tense is:
subject+main verb
past
The structure for negative sentences in the past simple tense is:
subject+auxiliary verb+not+main verb
didbase
The structure for question sentences in the past simple tense is:
auxiliary verb+subject+main verb
didbase
The auxiliary verb did is not conjugated. It is the same for all persons (I did, you did, he did etc). And the base form and past form do not change. Look at these examples with the main verbs go andwork:
subjectauxiliary verbmain verb
+Iwentto school.
Youworkedvery hard.
-Shedidnotgowith me.
Wedidnotworkyesterday.
?Didyougoto London?
Didtheyworkat home?
Exception! The verb to be is different. We conjugate the verb to be (I was, you were, he/she/it was, we were, they were); and we do not use an auxiliary for negative and question sentences. To make a question, we exchange the subject and verb. Look at these examples:
subjectmain verb
+I, he/she/itwashere.
You, we, theywerein London.
-I, he/she/itwasnotthere.
You, we, theywerenothappy.
?WasI, he/she/itright?
Wereyou, we, theylate?


  1. She (travel) travelled by train to London.

  2. She (cut) cut the lettuce with a knife.

  3. The film (be) was boring.

  4. The president (speak) spoke very slow during the conference.

  5. Sarah (sing) sang perfectly in the concert.

  6. Peter (decide) decided to paint the house blue.
