Basics: Past Simple - Irregular Verbs

While most English verbs form the past tense by adding "-ed," irregular verbs follow entirely different patterns. For example, the past simple of buy is bought, and catch becomes caught. Memorizing these unique forms is essential for accurately talking about completed actions in the past.

This challenge tests your ability to identify and use the correct past tense forms of common irregular verbs like teach, choose, and catch. You will practice applying these verbs in a variety of engaging contexts, from everyday situations like shopping, cooking, and camping, to imaginative scenarios like a disastrous dinner, a wizard's morning routine, and a dog's funny confession.

You'll work through 15 questions in single-choice, multi-choice, drop-down, and drag-and-drop formats.
