The past simple 

Regular verbs (regelmatige ww):

De verleden tijd maak je door -ed achter de stam van het werkwoord te zetten.

I / You

He / She / It

We / You / They

worked yesterday.

The past simple

Let op: 

Als de stam eindigt op een " -e ", alleen " -d " toevoegen.	love > love d
Medeklinker verdubbelt soms i.v.m. uitspraak.	stop > sto pp ed
" Y " na medeklinker wordt " ie ".	try > tr ie d

The past simple

There is no rule for these kinds of verbs.

You have to learn them.
