Read each column of words. Underline the root word in each word where an ending haas been addedmand circle the ending. Draw a box around the irregular form of the verb given. Can someone please help.
I'll do one; you do the other.
begin = root and base form of the verb
-s = ending for 3rd person, singular, present tense
-an = not exactly an ending, but a spelling change in this irregular verb that indicates past tense
-(n)ing = ending for present participle
