    The document discusses the simple past tense in English. It explains that regular verbs form the past tense by adding "-ed", while irregular verbs do not follow a set pattern and must be memorized. Some irregular verbs undergo vowel changes, some have a different form entirely, and a few do not change at all. It emphasizes that the correct past tense form must be used in positive sentences, while the auxiliary verb "did" plus the base verb form is used in negative sentences.
