Verbs 08 - Irregular Verbs
In the previous quiz we learnt how to identify verbs and classify them and we also learnt how to change from active voice to passive voice and vice versa. We were exposed to regular and irregular verbs and also auxiliary verbs, which we use to change the voice forms. We learnt that there are variations in the verbs when we look at different tense forms. Your learning of verbs would not be complete if we did not expose you to many more irregular verbs!
You may have come across verbs such as COMPLETE, CALL and FRY. These verbs follow certain rules when we use them in the simple past and past participle forms. For instance, COMPLETE becomes COMPLETED, CALL changes to CALLED and FRY becomes FRIED. Words such as FRY are changed by a slight alteration – removing the Y and adding IED. Such words are called regular verbs. However, we also come across certain words which follow different rules!.
