How to form the past simple

We use the past simple to talk about things that happened in the past. We often use words like yesterday, last week, last year, ago.

1. Regular verbs

For most verbs, we add -ed to the verb.

Verb + ed = past simple

Examples:

• walk → walked
  I walked to school yesterday.
• play → played
  She played football last Saturday.
• start → started
  I started my training last July.
• clean → cleaned
  He cleaned his room.

2. Verbs ending in -e

If a verb already ends in -e, we only add -d.

Examples:

• live → lived
  I lived in a small village.
• like → liked
  I liked the place.
• love → loved
  She loved the music.

3. Verbs ending in consonant + y

Change y to i and add -ed.

Examples:

• study → studied
  I studied English.
• try → tried
  I tried again.

4. Irregular verbs

Some verbs do not use -ed. Their past forms are different. You need to learn them.

5. Negative sentences

Use did not (didn’t) + verb.

The verb goes back to the present form.

Examples:

• I played football.
• I did not play football.
• She went home.
• She did not go home.

6. Questions

Use Did + person + verb?

Examples:

• Did you watch the film?
• Did she run yesterday?
• Did they visit the village?

Remember:

✅ Regular verbs → add -ed
✅ Irregular verbs → learn the special past form
✅ After did / didn’t → use the normal verb

Why do we say “Who left at seven?” but “Who did you leave at seven?”

The difference is who.

1. Who left at seven?

Here, who is the subject.
The person did the action.

• Who = person
• left = action

So we do not use “did”.

👉 Who left at seven?
= Who went away at seven?

Answer: Anna left at seven.

---

2. Who did you leave at seven?

Here, you are the subject.
Who is the person who received the action.

• you = subject
• left = action
• who = object

So we use did.

👉 Who did you leave at seven?
= Which person did you leave at seven?

Answer: I left Anna at seven.

Easy rule

Who + past verb?
→ Who did the action?

Who + did + subject + verb?
→ Who received the action?

Compare:

• Who left at seven? → Anna left.
• Who did you leave at seven? → You left Anna.

Remember how babies
learn a language:

Babies learn a language by listening.
They use their ears to hear sounds.
Their brain remembers these sounds.
Babies connect sounds with people and things.
They listen to their parents.
Then they copy the sounds they hear. They imitate words.
Slowly, babies learn to speak.

So,
LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN………………
