SPELLING ED ENDING.1. If a word ends in an E we just add the D to the
end. Example: live lived
2. If the word ends in a Consonant + Vowel + Consonant, we double the final consonant and add ED. Example: stop stopped
3. When a verb ends with the letter y and there is a consonant before it, they changes into i. Then we add ed. Example: try tried.
4.. When a verb ends with y and there is a vowel before it, we simply add ed to the verb. Example: stay stayed
USES
C O M P L E T E D A C T I O N I N T H E PA S T
Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do have one specific time in mind.
Example: I saw a movie Yesterday.
A S E R I E S O F C O M P L E T E D A C T I O N S
We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.
Example: I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim
D U RAT I O N I N PA S T
The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and stops in the past. A duration is a longer action often indicated by expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all year, etc
Example: I lived in Brazil for two years
H A B I T S I N T H E PA S T
The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as "used to." To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a child, when I was younger, etc
Example: He played de Violin
PAST FACTS OR GENERALIZATIONS
The Simple Past can also be used to describe past facts or generalizations which are no longer true. As in USE 4 above, this use of the Simple Past is quite similar to the expression "used to.“
Example: She didn’t like tomatoes before.

SIMPLE FUTURE
• Simple Future has two different forms in English: "will" and "be going to."
• The two forms can sometimes be used interchangeably, they often express two very different meanings.
• These different meanings might seem too abstract at first, but with time and practice, the differences will become clear.
• Both "will" and "be going to" refer to a specific time in the future
