Hi, can I answer this question? regular past verbs a lways end with the suffix "ed" and the past participle ( p.p) e.g: present verb -----------past--------------------- p.p - play---------------- played ----------------- played - ask ------------------asked-------------------- asked - change--------------changed--------------------changed - cry------------------ cried------------------- cried * But the irregular verbs varies from one group to another { we must memorize them by heart}, because they don't have one rule to change them.
e.g: present verb-------------- past------------------ p.p -eat----------------- ate----------------- eaten -drive------------------ drove--------------- driven -come------------------ came ---------------- come - read----------------- read {red}--------------- read { red} - cut ----------------- cut-------------------- cut I hope I were helpful. _________________ " If you live, live freely OR Die like trees

Hi Elliott, If I understoond your question perfectly, I would say" we often use the passive form when it is not so important ( who or what ) did the action in the sentence. For example: we can say either: =The house was built in 1700. OR =The house was built in 1700 by Romans. I hope I've been helpful. _________________ " If you live, live freely OR Die like trees

Hi Pappu, First of all, I would like from you to write English, and not to use for example 2= to because if you are very serious in learning you must use it. Answering your question as following: 1- we use " to have " ( have / has/ had)= to indicate an action that was happening in a certain time in the past, with a connection with the present.For exampl we say: a- He/She/It has eaten the food. PS= we always put the past participle of the verb after ( has /have / had) b- They/We/You/I have eaten the food. Examples ( a+b) are called " present perfect" c-He/She/It/ They/We/You/I had eaten the food. c= is called past perfect. ============================================= 2- we use ( have/has been+ past participle)as in passive which the rule of passive sentences always ( Object + auxiliary +verb (p.p)+(by agent).) examples: a-Tom has cleaned the room.( an active sentence) The room has been cleaned. ( passive sentence)
b-Tom has cleaned the cars. ( an active sentence) The cars have been cleaned. ( passive sentence) I hope I've been helpful _________________ " If you live, live freely OR Die like trees
