Правильные и неправильные глаголы

(Regular and Irregular verbs)

По способу образования прошедшего времени все глаголы в английском языке можно разделить на две группы: правильные и неправильные. У правильных глаголов вторая и третья формы (Past Simple Tense и Past Participle – простое прошедшее время и причастие прошедшего времени) совпадают между собой и образуются путем прибавления к основе глагола окончания –ed (-d):

to ask – asked to change – changed

to receive – received to work – worked

При этом существует ряд особенностей:

а)если глагол оканчивается на –у с предшествующей согласной, то буква –у меняется на –i и добавляется окончание – ed

to supply – supplied to apply – applied

если глагол оканчивается на –у с предшествующей гласной, то буква –у не меняется и добавляется окончание – ed

to stay – stayed to play – played

если глагол оканчивается на согласную с предшествующим кратким гласным звуком, то согласная на конце удваивается:

to stop – stopped
