1 UNIT 1 PAST EVENTS Language Information L.E.L.I. Marisol Jiménez Vega

2 We use simple past to talk about past events in a specific time in the past. (Nosotros usamos el pasado simple para hablar de eventos que han ocurrido en un tiempo específico en el pasado) In English there are two kinds of verbs: Regular and Irregular (En Inglés existen dos tipos de verbos: Regulares e Irregulares)Use:

3 Regular verbs add -ed, -ied, or -d to form the past. WALK becomes WALKED STUDY becomes STUDIED LISTEN becomes LISTENED ARRIVE becomes ARRIVED Irregular verbs most of the times CHANGE to a different word to form the past. BUY becomes BOUGHT BREAK becomes BROKE STEAL becomes STOLE WRITE becomes WROTE (A los verbos regulares se les añade –ed, –ied, o –d para formar su pasado). (WALK se convierte en WALKED) (STUDY se convierte en STUDIED) (LISTEN se convierte en LISTENED) (ARRIVE se convierte en ARRIVED) ( Los verbos irregulares muchas veces CAMBIAN a una palabra diferente para formar su pasado). (BUYse convierte a BOUGHT) (BREAKse convierte a BROKE) (STEALse convierte a STOLE) (WRITE se convierte a WROTE)
