LESSON 3 – PAST SIMPLE
Past simple é usado quando nos referimos a eventos que ocorreram em um tempo detrminado no
passado. Sendo assim, podemos concluir que o Past Simple é usado:
1) Para ações que se completaram no passado em tempo definido estabelecido na frase.
Ex: He travelled to Australia in 1998.
2) Em contextos que nos reportem ao passado, mesmo desprovido de indicação temporal.
Ex: I’m sorry about last night. The bus was 30 minutes late.
O past simple é um tempo verbal simples, formado apenas por um verbo principal flexionado na
forma do passado (para todas as pessoas), e que faz uso do verbo auxiliar (DID) apenas nas
formas interrogativas e negativas.
A flexão do verbo no passado será feita diferentemente para verbos regulares e irregulares. Os
verbos regulares recebem a terminação (-ed) para formar o passado. Os irregulares devem ser
memorizados, pois não trazem nenhuma lógica em suas formações.
