Verbs 04 - Present Perfect and Simple Past Verbs

In the previous quiz we studied regular and irregular verbs and their simple past forms. Now we look at past participles.

For regular verbs the past participle form is the same as a simple past form. However, for irregular verbs such as TAKE, the past form is TOOK and the past participle form is TAKEN. Past participles are used as part of the present perfect tenses. The present perfect of any verb comprises an auxiliary verb and the past participle of the main verb. Look at these examples:

‘I TALKED to my sister.’ In this sentence, TALKED is a verb in the simple past tense, telling us something that happened in the past.
