hello I’m Emma from room English my
students are always complaining about
irregular English verbs how can I learn
them what are the rules
ah I’m not gonna lie
they are tough be do have go come say
take get make see these are all really
common English verbs and they’re all
irregular verbs so when they change into
the past simple tense or the present
perfect tense the verb changes quite a
lot but you already know this there are
fewer irregular verbs than there are
regular verbs but these irregular verbs
are very very common verbs they’re used
more often than other regular verbs so
if you’ve been telling yourself that you
don’t need to worry about irregular
verbs get your head out of the clouds
stop dreaming you need to learn how to
use these important English verbs
automatically in this lesson I’m going
to test your knowledge of past tense
irregular verbs to train you to think of
them instantly
so get ready you need to be thinking
quickly pay attention on the screen
you’ll see a verb appear in the present
tense eat then you’ll see the past
simple tense ate and the past participle
eaten
but this is a speed test so you need to
try and beat me to it answer out loud
before I do and then you can tell your
friends that you beat your teacher in an
irregular verb test ready let’s get
started
become became become bring brought
brought forget forgot
forgotten of course you didn’t forget
choose chose chosen find found found
come cane come drive drove driven fall
fell fallen feel felt
felt by bought bought I thought you’d
know that one fly flew flown be now the
be verb in the present tense is M or is
or are in the past simple tense its was
a word and as a past participle it’s
being nice one
no new known get got and it could be got
or gotten depending on if you’re using
British or American English
we’re war one tear tour torn have we did
this one before had and had
swim in the past tense swam in the past
participial swum keep kept kept go and
the past simple is went and in the past
participle it’s gone or beam that could
be a little tricky to explain but you
use beam and gone for different reasons
if you go somewhere else
to another country to a friend’s house
then you have gone from the original
place maybe your house but if you have
been then you have gone but you’ve also
come back to the original place that’s
the main difference between beam and gon
teach taught and taught sleep slept
slept lend lent and lent stand stood and
stood
pay paid paid let let and let loose lost
and lost Sing sang sung meet met and met
begin begin begun put put and put read
read and read notice the pronunciation
changes but the spelling stays the same
read read read say said said make made
course you know that one it’s made so
sold sold think think
fork I thought it was right
have you thought about that thought
drink drank drunk send sent and sent
leave left and left sit sat sat speak
spoke spoken right wrote and written
take talk and taken lie and this is lie
when you’re not telling the truth
becomes lied and lied but lie can also
be when you are flat like on your bed
and it becomes lay and Lane now that’s
not very common to use the past
participle form of lay but it’s worth
knowing the difference there are two
verbs that are very similar smell now
smell is usually a regular verb smelled
but in the UK it can be an irregular
verb in British English smelt smelt just
be careful you might see it written in a
couple of different ways but the most
common way is smelled and the past
participle form is smelled give gave
given hear heard and heard tell told and
told see saw seen understand understood
understood do did done phew
how did you go I’m sure there were quite
a few that you know and that you got
right but there were probably a few that
tested your memory maybe you haven’t
used them in a little while so it’s a
good idea to jog your memory but don’t
worry about it if you didn’t get them
all right use this video to test and
build your knowledge of these verbs go
back to the start of the video and
practice again and again and again until
you have them all memorized which
irregular verbs do you find most
difficult to use and remember share them
in the comments under this video and
don’t forget that there are a bunch of
irregular verbs that are only irregular
because they don’t actually
change in different tenses they’re
always the same there’s only one form
for example bit cut hit hurt let put we
spoke about those just before quit read
and read the spelling is the same but
the pronunciation is different set
shut and spread for those of you who are
feeling up for the challenge
then download this worksheet up here to
practice using these verbs in different
tenses well that’s it for this mini
training lesson I’m sure that you must
feel great about reviewing and
practicing how to use these verbs in
English so that you can speak more
fluently confidently and automatically
