      THE PAST SIMPLE (INDEFINITE) TENSE

      Правильные глаголы образуют прошедшее время путём прибавления окончания –ed или –d, которое читается как [t], [d], [ıd].

Особенности правописания правильных глаголов:

      – удваивается конечная согласная в односложных и двухсложных глаголах с краткой гласной;

      skip – skipped

      stop – stopped

      hop – hopped

      – в глаголах, оканчивающихся на согласную с последующей буквой “y”, конечная гласная “y” меняется на “i” и добавляется окончание “ed”.

      try – tried

      cry – cried

But

      play – played

      yesterday ['jɛstədı] вчера

      last week (month, year, summer, Sunday) на прошлой неделе (месяце, году, летом, воскресенье)

      the day before yesterday позавчера

      five minutes ago пять минут назад

      an hour ago час назад
