Tentang Regular dan Irregular Verb

Menjadi hal yang penting untuk memahami bentuk regular verb (kata kerja beraturan) dan irregular
verb (kata kerja tak beraturan) karena pemahaman ini diperlukan untuk menempatkan bentuk kata
kerja yang benar saat berkaitan dengan tenses.
Misalnya, kalimat affirmative/positif dari Past Tense akan memerlukan verb bentuk kedua (simple
past) sementara kelompok perfect baik past, present, maupun future dan semua kalimat pasif/passive
voice akan memerlukan kata kerja bentuk ketiga (Past Participle). Akan menjadi hal yang keliru,
apabila bentuk kata kerja yang dipergunakan tidak tepat, terutama dalam penulisan kalimat dengan
tense tertentu yang memerlukan perubahan bentuk kata kerja seperti yang telah disebutkan di atas.
Seringkali dalam soal ujian sekolah baik jenis multiple choice maupun fill in the blanks seringkali
ditanyakan.
Secara sederhana regular verb adalah kata kerja yang bentuk kedua (simple past) dan bentuk
ketiganya (past participle) didapatkan dengan menambahkan -d atau -ed dari basic verb atau kata
kerja bentuk pertamanya.
Sementara irregular verb adalah kata kerja yang bentuk kedua dan ketiganya tidak mengikuti aturan
penamabahan -d dan -ed tersebut di atas.
Contoh regular verb:
Infinitive: help
The past: helped
Past Past Participle: helped
Contoh irregular verb:
Infinitive: take
The past: took
Past Participle: taken
