The Alphabet Song

Past Tense - Mitvergangenheit

Bildung:
Es gibt für alle Personen nur eine Form, die bei vielen Zeitwörtern durch Anhängen von –ed gebildet wird.
I played – ich spielte
You played – du spieltest
He played – er spielte
She played – sie spielte
It played – er, sie, es spielte

We played - wir spielten
You played – ihr spieltet
They played – sie spielten

help – helped, live – lived, like – liked, hope – hoped, look – looked

Verwendung:
Die Past Tense Simple wird für Handlungen verwendet, die völlig vorbei sind und keinen Bezug zur Gegenwart haben.

Signalwörter:
yesterday - gestern
last weeek (month, year) - letzte Woche (Monat, Jahr)
in 2001
the day before yesterday - vorgestern
three days (minutes, weeks, months, years) ago - vor drei Tagen (Minuten, Wochen, Monaten, Jahren)

Es gibt aber auch Zeitwörter, deren Past Tense nicht durch Anhängen von –ed gebildet werden.
Diese nennt man Irregular Verbs (Unregelmäßige Zeitwörter)
to go – went gehen - ging
to have – had haben - hatte

Yesterday Jane went swimming. (ging schwimmen)
I had a wonderful birthday party last week. (hatte)
