Verbos Regulares e Irregulares em Inglês | Explicação simples e fácil

Summary

This video explains the difference between regular and irregular verbs in English, providing clear examples of both. Irregular verbs, like 'see,' 'go,' and 'make,' do not follow a predictable pattern and require memorization. The video offers a downloadable study material with 50 common irregular verbs and their forms in different tenses, along with example sentences. Regular verbs, on the other hand, follow a simple rule where the past tense is formed by adding '-ed' to the base verb. The video also highlights a special promotional offer for language courses, including English, Spanish, and French.

Takeaways

• 😀 Irregular verbs in English do not follow a specific pattern and each verb has unique forms in the present, past, and participle.
• 😀 Examples of irregular verbs include 'see' (I see, I saw, I have seen) and 'go' (I go, I went, I have gone).
• 😀 Irregular verbs can be memorized through 'decoreba' (rote memorization), as there is no logical pattern to follow.
• 😀 Regular verbs follow a clear pattern: the past tense is formed by adding 'ed' to the base verb.
• 😀 Examples of regular verbs include 'work' (I work, I worked, I have worked) and 'play' (I play, I played, I have played).
• 😀 The past tense of regular verbs is formed by adding 'ed', such as 'worked' for 'work' or 'walked' for 'walk'.
• 😀 Irregular verbs like 'make' (I make, I made, I have made) have different forms in each tense without a clear rule.
• 😀 The distinction between past simple ('I saw') and present perfect ('I have seen') is important; the latter does not specify when an action occurred.
• 😀 English has a vast majority of regular verbs, making them easier to learn than irregular verbs.
• 😀 To make learning easier, it's recommended to focus on memorizing the 50 most common irregular verbs and their forms.
• 😀 The video also promotes an upcoming course offering discounts on English, Spanish, and French courses from October 9th to 11th.

Q & A

What makes a verb irregular in English?

An irregular verb does not follow any predictable pattern in its conjugation. The verb forms in the present, past, and participle are completely different, with no logical consistency across different verbs.

Can you give an example of an irregular verb and its different forms?

An example is the verb 'see'. In the present, it’s 'I see a movie', in the past it becomes 'I saw a movie', and in the participle form, it’s 'I have seen a movie'.

What is the difference between the simple past and the present perfect in English?

The simple past is used to specify when an action occurred, such as 'I saw a movie yesterday'. The present perfect, on the other hand, focuses on the fact that an action has occurred at some point in the past without specifying exactly when, like 'I have seen a movie'.

How do regular verbs differ from irregular verbs in terms of conjugation?

Regular verbs follow a consistent pattern where you add '-ed' to the base verb in the past and participle forms. For example, the verb 'work' becomes 'worked' in both the past and participle forms.

Can you give an example of a regular verb and its conjugation?

The verb 'work' is a regular verb. In the present, it's 'I work a lot', in the past, it becomes 'I worked a lot yesterday', and in the participle form, it's 'I have worked a lot'.

What is the main challenge in learning irregular verbs?

The main challenge is that irregular verbs don’t follow a standard pattern, making them harder to memorize. Each verb has unique forms in the present, past, and participle, with no consistent rules.

What strategy is suggested for learning irregular verbs?

The suggested strategy is to memorize the irregular verbs one by one, using a study material with examples. Learning the most common irregular verbs and their usage in sentences can help make the memorization process easier.

How do you learn irregular verbs more effectively?

The most effective way to learn irregular verbs is by studying example sentences. By understanding the context in which the verb is used, you can better memorize its different forms in the present, past, and participle.

How do verbs like 'go' and 'cut' demonstrate the irregular nature of verbs in English?

'Go' becomes 'went' in the past and 'gone' in the participle, while 'cut' remains 'cut' in the present, past, and participle. This lack of pattern or logic in conjugation is why they are considered irregular verbs.

What is the benefit of using the provided study material in the video?

The study material contains a list of the 50 most commonly used irregular verbs in English, with all three forms (present, past, participle) and example sentences. It makes learning easier and provides clear context for each verb’s use.
