Grammar

The Simple Past Tense

Hoje vamos começar a aprender o Simple Past Tense. Por hora, vamos apenas pensar que estas frases todas estarão no passado e aprender primeiro a forma correta; mais adiante explicaremos em mais detalhes quando usar este tempo verbal.

Affirmative Sentences

Para frases afirmativas, temos dois tipos de verbos: regulares e irregulares. Quando temos um verbo regular, colocamos a frase no passado acrescentando -ed. No caso dos verbos irregulares, teremos que memorizar uma lista.

Ex.: She walks home everyday. -> She walked home yesterday.

She usually eats a toast for breakfast. -> She ate a toast for breakfast this morning.

Negative Sentences

Quando fazemos frases negativas no Simple Past precisamos usar o verbo auxiliar did, tanto para verbos regulares quanto irregulares. Para que a frase fique negativa, o verbo auxiliar vem seguido de not, então temos:

Ex.: She did not walk home yesterday.

She did not eat toast for breakfast this morning.

Atenção! Note que não usamos o -ed nem modificamos o verbo. Para frases negativas, usamos o que é chamado de base form. Quando apresentarmos a tabela de verbos irregulares isto ficará mais claro.

Abreviação: did + not = didn't

Ex.: She didn't walk home yesterday.

She didn't eat toast for breakfast this morning.

Interrogative Sentences

O verbo auxiliar did também é utilizado para frases interrogativas, mas ele vem antes do sujeito.

Ex.: Did she walk home yesterday?

Did she eat toast for breakfast this morning?
