El past simple en inglés es una de las formas verbales más utilizadas, ya que se trata del tiempo verbal que se emplea para hablar de acciones o sucesos que ocurrieron en un momento concreto del pasado y que ya han terminado.
Para conjugar un verbo en past simple en inglés, lo único que necesitas hacer es añadir la terminación -ed al infinitivo del verbo. Sin embargo, hay que tener en cuenta que hay algunos verbos que, al añadir esta terminación, cambian de forma radical, como por ejemplo write (escribir) que se convierte en wrote (escribió) o read (leer) que pasa a ser read (leyó).
En estos casos, lo mejor es acudir a un diccionario o a una gramática de inglés para buscar la forma correcta del verbo en past simple. No obstante, a continuación te ofrecemos una lista de los verbos más utilizados en past simple en inglés, así como su traducción al español.
