Explanation :

• We can say that the past tense describes things that have already happened. In order to create the past tense in English, one must take the word's present tense and add the suffix -ed.
• Now let us talk about it more so, for instance, to make the verb "walk" into the past tense, simply add the -ed suffix.
• And also the past tense is actually a grammar tense used to indicate that an action or circumstance occurred in the past.
• Furthermore, the English verbs sang, went, and washed are examples of verbs in the past tense.
• Also if we see most languages include a past tense, and some have numerous varieties to show how long ago the action occurred.
• Some languages feature both an imperfect tense, which expresses ongoing or recurring occurrences or acts, and a compound past tense that makes use of auxiliary verbs.
• While non-inflected languages may employ other terms, such as "yesterday" or "last week" etc. to indicate that something occurred in the past, certain languages inflect the verb, which alters the ending to indicate the past tense. In certain languages, the past tense is expressed grammatically alongside other categories like grammatical aspect (see tense-aspect).
• Thus, depending on the aspectual or other supplementary information that needs to be transmitted, a language may have different past tense forms.
• For instance, the compound past (passé composé) in French is used to indicate completed events, while the imperfect is used to exoress onaoina or recurrina events.
