Memorize the 10 most common


irregular verbs first

Instead of going through the list in alphabetical order, focus on the


most commonly used words.

First start with these very common words (they’re listed as present, past,
past participle):

Say, said, said


Go, went, gone
Come, came, come
Know, knew, known
Get, got, gotten
Give, gave, given
Become, became, become
Find, found, found
Think, thought, thought
See, saw, seen

That’s right, all these tiny but very important verbs are irregular! You’ll
need to know their irregular forms to use them in everyday conversation.

4. Learn in sentences
It might be easier to remember the words when they’re part of a sentence of a
phrase. Learn words by putting them into sentences, and you’ll also be learning
how to use them correctly.

To learn the word see, for example, you can use sentences like this: “I see the
bee, I saw the snow, but I’ve never seen a bee in the snow!”

Be creative—the weirder the sentences are, the easier they will be to


remember.
