• MORE TO KNOW:-

• The simple past, past simple or past indefinite, sometimes called the preterite, is the basic form of the past tense in Modern English. It is used principally to describe events in the past, although it also has some other uses.

• The term "simple" is used to distinguish the syntactical construction whose basic form uses the plain past tense alone, from other past tense constructions which use auxiliaries in combination with participles, such as the past perfect and past progressive.

• FORMATION:-

• Basic simple past:

I/you/he/she/it/we/they helped

• Expanded (Emphatic) simple past:

I/you/he/she/it/we/they did help

• Question form:

Did I/you/he/she/it/we/they help?

• Negative:

I/you/he/she/it/we/they did not (didn't) help

• Negative question:

Did I/you/he/she/it/we/they not help? / Didn't I/you/he/she/it/we/they help?

• Base form:-

Afirmative (+) S + verb(ed) + c

Negative (-) S + did not ( didn't) + verb + C

• EXAMPLES:-

1. He took the money and ran.
2. I visited them every day for a year.

It can also refer to a past state:

1. I knew how to fight even as a child.
