What are Irregular Verbs?

Regular verbs: In the English language, most verbs are turned into the past tense by adding -ed to the end of a base form of the verb.

  • Cook → Cooked
  • Walk → Walked
  • Talk → Talked
  • Finish → Finished

Irregular verbs (or irregular past tense verbs) are common verbs in English that do not follow the simple system of adding -d or -ed to the end of the word to form the past tense (the past simple and/or the past participle)

  • Do – did – done
  • Draw – drew – drawn
  • Drink – drank – drunk
