What are irregular verbs?
A verb is a word used to describe an action, state, or occurrence.
An irregular verb is one that does not form its simple past tense or its past participle by adding “-ed” or “-d” to the base form.
Irregular verbs contrast with regular verbs, which form the simple past tense and past participle by adding “-ed” or “-d.”
