Regular Verbs | Meaning, Examples & List
A regular verb is a type of verb that forms its past tense and past participle by adding "-ed" or just "-d" to the base form of the verb. These verbs follow a predictable pattern when conjugated in various tenses. Examples of regular verbs include "walk" (walked), "talk" (talked), "play" (played), and "jump" (jumped). This contrasts with irregular verbs, which have unpredictable changes in their past tense and past participle forms (e.g., "go" -> "went", "eat" -> "ate").
