1 00:00:01,139 --> 00:00:10,599 Good morning class. How are you? I hope you are fine. Today we are going to review the past simple. Do you remember it? 2 00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:23,179 We use it with finished actions, states or habits in the past. We use the past simple when the action started and finished in the past. 3 00:00:23,179 --> 00:00:31,019 For example, I ate pizza yesterday. I started and finished the action yesterday. 4 00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:37,740 So, the past simple tense emphasizes that the action is finished. 5 00:00:41,939 --> 00:00:43,820 How do we form the past simple? 6 00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:50,640 Here we have to talk about regular verbs and irregular verbs. 7 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:57,640 Remember that we formed the past of the regular verbs adding "-ed to the infinitive". 8 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,640 On the other hand, the irregular verbs don't add "-ed". 9 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:07,640 They are different words in present and in past. 10 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,640 So, we have to learn the list. 11 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,640 I'm sure that you know the most used. 12 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:21,140 So, during these days, you can learn some new verbs. 13 00:01:22,060 --> 00:01:30,659 Now, we are going to continue reviewing how to make the affirmative, negative and interrogative sentences. 14 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,079 We are going to start with affirmative sentences. 15 00:01:39,079 --> 00:01:51,540 We have to use first the subject and then the verb with "-ity", if we are talking about regular verbs, okay? 16 00:01:51,540 --> 00:02:09,639 I played basketball yesterday, but remember that if we are using our regular verbs, then we have to use the verb in the past, the second column, the past simple, okay? 17 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:18,819 I saw a way last summer we don't add ED to the verb. There are some exceptions 18 00:02:18,819 --> 00:02:26,500 about the ED. Have a look and try to remember them. The first one verbs finished 19 00:02:26,500 --> 00:02:36,159 in E add only letter D. For example, chain, chained. Number two, verbs finished in 20 00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:46,539 consonant plus Y turned Y into I before the ED like study studied and the last 21 00:02:46,539 --> 00:02:53,400 one verse finished in a short vowel plus consonant except Y and W double the 22 00:02:53,400 --> 00:03:02,900 consonant stop stopped here we have the term short vowel this term is used to 23 00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:09,000 refer to the sounds that correspond to the vowels when the vowels are 24 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:21,189 individually between two consonants like letter O between T and P. Now negative 25 00:03:21,189 --> 00:03:30,469 sentences. Here we are going to use first the subject then did not or didn't and 26 00:03:30,469 --> 00:03:39,770 finally the verb in infinitive he didn't study for the test or they didn't see 27 00:03:39,770 --> 00:03:49,430 him as you can see in the examples the verb is in infinitive okay because we 28 00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:58,650 are using didn't to express that the sentence is in the past tense we don't 29 00:03:58,650 --> 00:04:08,650 have to write the verb in the past tense so be careful don't say he didn't study it or they 30 00:04:08,650 --> 00:04:20,589 didn't saw him okay we have to use the infinitive finally interrogative sentences 31 00:04:21,550 --> 00:04:30,350 now we are going to use first did then the subject and finally the verb again in infinitive okay 32 00:04:30,350 --> 00:04:37,310 look at the examples did you go to london last easter or did they watch the movie 33 00:04:38,750 --> 00:04:48,029 okay so remember that if we use did we have to write the verb in infinitive no in the past tense 34 00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:57,120 okay we have finished with the past simple but i would like to add something about the verb to be 35 00:04:58,079 --> 00:05:04,959 because it makes the negative and the interrogative in a different way in the affirmative 36 00:05:04,959 --> 00:05:12,240 you are going to have problems because it has the same structure that we have seen before with the 37 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:23,279 irregular verbs subject plus was or where that is the verb to be in past the only thing we have to 38 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:31,620 remember is that we have to use were with we you and they okay remember that 39 00:05:31,620 --> 00:05:38,279 you could be singular or plural an example you were wrong last day and we 40 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:47,579 use was with I he see it he was in his mother's house but there is a change in 41 00:05:47,579 --> 00:05:59,930 the negative sentences we use weren't and wasn't instead of didn't look at the examples you weren't 42 00:05:59,930 --> 00:06:11,769 wrong last day or he wasn't in his mother's house okay we don't say you didn't are or he didn't is 43 00:06:11,769 --> 00:06:23,449 okay we use weren't our wasn't the same for the interrogative sentences it will 44 00:06:23,449 --> 00:06:31,170 want to make a question we have to use we're plus subject like in the example 45 00:06:31,170 --> 00:06:38,990 where you run last day or was plus the subject was he in his mother's house as 46 00:06:38,990 --> 00:06:45,329 As you can see here, again, we are not going to use the word did, okay? 47 00:06:45,389 --> 00:06:49,949 We make the question with where and was, okay? 48 00:07:05,730 --> 00:07:06,930 Now, it's our turn. 49 00:07:08,110 --> 00:07:09,449 Look at the pictures. 50 00:07:10,050 --> 00:07:15,730 Then choose three of them and write one sentence for each picture using the past simple. 51 00:07:16,389 --> 00:07:20,629 Write one affirmative, one negative, and the last one interrogative. 52 00:07:20,629 --> 00:07:23,730 Try to make long and creative sentences. 53 00:07:23,870 --> 00:07:32,250 Here you've got the pictures with the actions play, cook, run, swim, bark, sleep, breathe and laugh 54 00:07:32,250 --> 00:07:35,430 And I give you some examples 55 00:07:35,430 --> 00:07:38,670 They played basketball last week in a big stadium 56 00:07:38,670 --> 00:07:41,589 Did your cousin swim better than you? 57 00:07:41,949 --> 00:07:45,949 Or I didn't sleep well last night, I couldn't breathe well 58 00:07:45,949 --> 00:07:49,129 So now it's your turn 59 00:07:49,129 --> 00:07:52,290 Good luck and see you soon 60 00:07:52,290 --> 00:07:54,290 Bye guys!
