TO TELL THAT AN ACTION IS COMPLETED!!!!!! FINISHED!!! OVER!!!
Rules for adding –ed:
• Add –ed to most verbs• Drop the “e” and add “ed” to verbs that end with “e”
(smile= smiled). • Change the “y” to “i” and add –ed to verbs that end
with a consonant and “y” (carry= carried, study= studied).
• Double the consonant and add –ed to verbs that end with one vowel and one consonant ( drag= dragged,
stop= stopped).
