    Regular and Irregular Verbs

    To make the past tence or past participle form of most verbs(regular verbs) you simply add "ed" at the end.

    Ex. Using the verb Walk

    Past Tense: I walked through the maze.
    Past Participle: I have walked through the maze.

    Irregular verbs aren't that simple, here is an example of one.

    Past tense: We saw the secret maps.
    Past Participle: We have seen the secret maps.
