The past simple is one of the essential verb tenses that is used very frequently. Using the past simple or past simple we refer to actions that were carried out in a previous time and ended, whether teya are generalities or everyday actions or that are also repeated. These actions may have happened 20 years ago or 2 minutes ago. The past simple has time expressions that specifically indicate when an action happened in the past, these are: ● Yesterday: example, i finished my work yesterday. ● Last week: we went on a trip las week. ● Two days ago: she called me two days ago. ● Last night: we watched a movie last night. In this verb tense, a series of rules must be applied to the regular verb used. The rules are the following:

  1. When it comes to regular verbs, compsing the past simple is very simple, we just have to add the ending “ed” to its infinitive regardless of the person we are refering to. For example: ● Play / played. I played with my friends in the park.
  2. To make sentences in past simple using monosyllabyc verbs or short verbs and that end in consonant + vowel +consonant, is necessary duplicate the las consonant and add “ed”. For example: ● Stop / stopped He stopped in the traffic light.
  3. Long verbs, that is, thopse verbs that have more that one syllable and end in consonant + vowel + consonant, have a special rule in the simple past when the “ed” ending is added. In this case, the final consonant is doubled before adding “ed”. For example:

Subject + did not / didn’t + verb in infinitive + complement. For example: i didn’t go to the movie yesterday. Didn’t is placed and verb remain in infinitive form. The simple past has a form used mostly for daily routines. Here we use the auxiliary was for the first and third person (i, she, it, he). fop example: "he was", "i was". While the auxiliary "were" is used for the second person singular and plural. For example "you were" ; "They were." Structure: Subject + was/ were + complement. I was in Japan last year.
