Hola, Mi Nombre es Ronnie, Voy a tratar de ayudarlos con algo fantástico para su Ingles

grammar, speaking, and general wellbeing. This is a very, very time-consuming and difficult

gramatica, para hablar y en general para su bienestar. Esto es algo que consume mucho tiempo y es una dificil

task that you will have to do when you are learning English. They're verbs.

tarea que tendrán que hacer cuando están aprendiendo Ingles. Los verbos

We have many verbs in English. We have what are called regular verbs. A regular verb will

Hay muchos verbos en ingles, tenemos los verbos regulares. un verbo regular puede

end in "ed". For example: "use", "used". So, regular verb. We like to call them "ed" verbs

terminar en "ed". Por ejemplo: "use", "used", entonces los verbos regulares. Les llamamos los verbos "ed"

just to be fancy. So, regular verbs are easy because they all both end in "ed"

los verbos regulares son fáciles por que todos ellos terminan en "ed"

if you have different forms.

si tu tienes diferentes formas.

Now, what I'm going to go over today is the difference in forms between simple past and

ahora lo que voy a enseñarles este día es la diferencia en las formas entre el pasado simple y

the past participle. So, we have the simple present tense, which is something like:

el pasado participativo . Entonces el presente simple, que es algo como esto:

"I eat pizza." When we use simple present, it's something we do every day.

"yo como pizza" cuando utilizamos el presente simple es algo que hacemos cada dia

Then we have what's

y tenemos lo que

called the simple past, or you can say past simple. It doesn't matter; it's the same.

llamamos el simple pasado, o lo pueden llamar el pasado simple, el nombre no importa es lo mismo.

So, we have the present tense, we have the past, and we have what's called the past participle.

tenemos la oracion en presente, tenemos el pasado y tenemos lo que llamamos el pasado participativo

Have you heard of this before? The past participle, it's so difficult for me to say, so I'm going

Has escuchado de esto antes? el pasado participativo es difícil para mi decirlo, así que voy

to call it p.p. from now on. So, the past participle, you're going to have to use if

a llamarlo p.p. de ahora en adelante, entonces el pasado participativo lo vas a tener que utilizar si

you learn present perfect.

estas aprendiendo presente perfecto

Now, if you don't know what these are yet, that's okay. If you've

Si no sabes aun que es esto, esta bien, Si has escuchado

heard of these before and you know what they are, that's fantastic. Past perfect and all

de esto antes y sabes lo que es, es grandioso, el pasado perfecto y todas

the forms of passive voice that we have in English.

las formas de la voz pasiva que existen en Ingles.

If these are new kind of ideas to you, please don't worry, but it's not past, present "prefect"

Si estas son nuevas clases de ideas para ti , por favor no te preocupes, pero no es pasado, presente perfecto

it's present perfect. We must be perfect. If these are new things for you... I'll get

to you, don't worry about it. Okay? Just focus on learning these groups, and

para ti no te preocupes, esta bien concéntrate en aprender estos grupos,

y puedes tener la lista delante de ti para memorizar, recordar o ayudarte

What I want you do is I want to introduce you to-doo, doo, doo, doo-group one and two

Lo que quiero es introducirte el grupo uno y dos

of irregular verbs. Once you do this, there's also a video on group number three, which

de los verbos irregulares. Una vez que tengas esto, hay un vídeo para el grupo tres, que

is the most difficult. So we're starting with the easiest ones, yay. And again, this is

es el más difícil. Por eso estamos empezando por los más fáciles. Repito, son

groups one and two. You can find them, a list of these on the resources section.

los grupos uno y dos. Puedes encontrarlos, listados, en la sección de fuentes.

So, past participle, I will now call p.p. Yay. We have the present tense, simple past

Así que, el participio pasado, que llamaré p.p. Sí. Tenemos el presente, el pasado simple

or past, and then the past participle. The first group is the most delicious. It's the

o pasado y el participio pasado. El primer grupo es el más excitante. Es el

best because we don't have to change anything. Woo-hoo. So, if in the present tense the verb

mejor porque no tenemos que cambiar nada. Woo-hoo. Entonces, si en el presente del verbo

is "cut", the past tense is "cut", and so is the past participle or the p.p. So, we

es "cut", el pasado es "cut" y también el participio pasado, o p.p. Así que

have: "cut", "cut", "cut". For example, if we use present tense: "I cut the pizza."

tenemos "cut", "cut", "cut". Por ejemplo, si usamos el presente: "I cut the pizza."

If we use past tense, I can say: "Yesterday, I cut the grass." And if I wanted to use the

Si usamos el pasado podemos decir: "Yesterday, I cut the grass." Y si quisiéramos usar el

past participle, let's say I want to use present perfect, I can say: "The grass has been cut."

participio pasado, digamos quiero usar el presente perfecto, se dice: "The grass has been cut."

So, we don't need to change the verb. These are some examples of verbs that we don't have to change.

So, these are the easiest, and probably your favourite. We have: "cost", "hit", "hurt",

ow. So if you... Something hits you, you are hurt. "Let", "put", "quit".

If the simple past is "shut", what do you think the past participle would be?

It's the same, so this would also be "shut". So, I could say: "I shut the door.",

"The door was shut.", or:

"The door has been shut." And in the last one we have the word "bet". Again, we don't

have to change it, so it's: "bet", "bet", "bet". I bet you like this lesson. Yeah? Okay?

So these ones are the easiest and the most fun because they don't have to change. Whew.

We're going to go into group two. Group two is okay, because we only have to change one

time now. So, if we have the present tense, section A, all we're doing to make it past

or use the past participle, is we're changing it, and all of these ones are going to have

a "d" ending. So, present tense we have "sell", "sold", and "sold". I hear a lot of people

doing this: "Sell, sold, sold", so they're saying: "sell", "sold", "sold". If you repeat

it in your head, it will help you remember it. We have "tell", "told", "told"; "feed"...

Do you know what "feed" means? "Feed" means you give food to someone, like a dog or a

baby, mostly those guys. So the past simple is "fed" and the past participle is also "fed".

We have "pay", you got to give me money, we have the past: "paid". What do you think the

past participle is? You guessed it, it is, again: "paid", because these don't change.

And the last one we have "find", it's going to change to "found", "found", good, guys,

good. So, all of these ones here, when we change them, it's going to end in a "d".

On to part B. These next group of verbs, they're going to end in a "t". So we have:

"deal", "dealt", "dealt". A deal, if you play cards, you can deal the cards, or you can say the

cards were dealt. This means something was given out to each person. We have:

"feel", "felt", "felt", has to do with your feelings. "I feel happy.", "I felt sad yesterday."

"Keep", "kept", "kept". So, "keep" is something that you cherish. For example:

"I keep all of my cards." or: "I kept everything you gave me.",

"I have kept the receipt."

We have: "leave",

hmm. This is "left". What do you think the past participle is?

Doesn't change. It's "left".

Yay. And then we have "meet", "met", and again "met". So, all of these ones, all we're doing

is we're changing from the present to the past and the p.p., these two are going to

be the same. These ones end in "t". We've got one more. You okay?

The last one, we're going to change the vowel in the middle to a "u". So we have:

"dig", "dug", and "dug". "Dig" means you get a shovel...

I can draw a shovel. I can't draw a shovel.

"Dig" means you make a hole. So I'm going to try to draw a shovel again. There we go.

If you're digging a hole, the past tense is "dug", and again, the past participle is "dug".

We have "hang", "hung", and "hung". You guys might have heard this a lot, for example,

maybe your friend says: "Hey, do you want to hang out?" Or they say:

-"What did you do yesterday?" -"Oh, I hung out with Bob."

Okay. So, we use this one a lot nowadays.

We also have: "stick", "stuck", this one doesn't change. So what do you think this is? If this

is "stick", these two are the same, we're going to say: "stick", "stuck", "stuck".

Are you stuck in traffic? This means you can't go, you can't drive your car anywhere. And

the last one, this might happen to you if a wasp comes-"zzz"-and stings you, we have:

"sting", "stung", do you know the past participle? It's the same. It's going to be "stung".

"Sting", stang, "stung".

If it helps you to make little songs or little rhymes, little things that help you remember

these verbs, that'll be really, really good for you. Unfortunately, I'm not really a musician.

I'd like to write a song about it, but you can do that. Write a song about this, send

Me gustaría escribir una canción sobre ello, pero podéis hacerlo vosotros. Escribe una canción sobre ello. Ponla

it on the comments. It'd be great. Look in the resources section. There's lists of these

en los comentarios. Sería bonito. Mira en la sección fuentes. Hay una lista de estos

verbs to help you out so you can form your song. Group two, we have to change only one

verbos para ayudarte a que puedas componer tu canción. Grupo dos, tenemos que cambiar solo un

time. It changes the present to the past, but the past and the past participle are the

tiempo. Se cambia el presente por el pasado y el participio pasado es

same; three different groups. And my favourite, group number one, we don't have to change

el mismo; tres grupos diferentes. Y mi favorito, el grupo uno, no tenemos que cambiar

the verbs. Check out group number three, the most difficult one. Once you get that, it'll

los verbos. Comprueba el grupo tres, el más difícil. Una vez que lo tengas, será

be so much better for you.

mucho mejor para ti.
