SIMPLE PAST TENSE
El tiempo pasado simple sirve para expresar hechos y actividades terminadas en
el pasado. Para hacer oraciones con el Simple Past Tense necesitamos usar el
pasados de los verbos. En inglés hay 2 grupos de verbos: Los verbos
regulares y los verbos irregulares. En esta lección nos concentraremos en
estudiar solamente los VERBOS REGULARES.
Mira el recuadro y compara las oraciones de ambas columnas para establecer las
diferencias en su forma y significado de cada verbo empleado.
Present tense Past tense
I visit my grandparents every month. I visited my parents last month.
Yo visito a mis abuelos todos los meses. Yo visité a mis abuelos el mes pasado.
My father works for a French company. My father worked for a French company.
Mi papá trabaja para una compañía Mi papá trabajó para una compañía
francesa. francesa.
We go to the cinema on Sunday. We went to the cinema last Sunday.
Nosotros vamos al cine los domingos. Nosotros fuimos al cine el domingo pasado.
He buys a CD every week. He bought a CD last week.
Él compra un CD todas las semanas. Él compró un CD la semana pasada.
Explicación:
Todas las oraciones de la primera columna están en tiempo presente.
Las oraciones de la segunda columna expresan tiempo pasado.
El tiempo pasado del verbo visit es visited; se le añadió la terminación “ed”
para formar el pasado porque es un verbo regular.
Otro verbo regular de los ejemplos es work y su pasado sería worked,
agregándolo “ed.”
El pasado de go (ir) es went; y el pasado de buy es bought. Estos verbos
son irregulares porque no tienen una forma exacta en el tiempo pasado.
A los verbos irregulares nunca se les agrega la terminación ed. Para saber
el pasado de un verbo irregular debemos acudir al diccionario y aprenderlo de
memoria.
El pasado simple de un verbo se utiliza con todos los sujetos o
pronombres: you, we, they, he, she, it. (was-were)
Todo oración en pasado simple expresa una acción o evento terminado, y
es común emplear expresiones de tiempo como yesterday (ayer) last month (el
mes pasado), etc.
STRUCTURE OF SIMPLE PAST TENSE WITH REGULAR VERBS
Regular past simple forms are formed by adding -ed to the infinitive of the verb.
start → started
kill → killed
jump → jumped
SPELLING RULES
If a verb ends in -e, you add -d.
agree → agreed
like → liked
escape → escaped
If a verb ends in a vowel and a consonant, the consonant is usually doubled
before -ed.
stop → stopped
plan → planned
If a verb ends in consonant and -y, you take off the y and add -ied.
try → tried
carry → carried
if the word ends in a vowel and -y, you add -ed.
play → played
enjoy → enjoyed
For the very few English verbs that end in a vowel other than -e, add –ed.
