📌 1. Konsep Dasar Regular Verbs

Basic Concept of Regular Verbs

English:
Regular verbs are verbs that form their past tense by adding -d or -ed to the base form.

  belajar → belajar (lampau)
• smoke → smoked
  merokok → merokok (lampau)
• play → played
  bermain → bermain (lampau)

 

📌 2. Aturan Penulisan (Spelling Rules)

A. Tambahkan -d pada kata kerja yang berakhiran e

Add -d to verbs ending in e

English:
If a verb already ends in e, simply add -d.

Indonesia:
Jika kata kerja sudah berakhiran huruf e, cukup tambahkan -d.

 

✳️ Contoh | Examples

• decide → decided
  memutuskan → memutuskan
• love → loved
  mencintai → mencintai
• live → lived
  tinggal → tinggal

 

 

B. Tambahkan -ed pada kata kerja yang berakhiran konsonan

Add -ed to verbs ending in a consonant

English:
Most verbs simply add -ed.

Indonesia:
Sebagian besar kata kerja cukup menambahkan -ed.

 

✳️ Contoh | Examples

• watch → watched
  menonton → menonton
• work → worked
  bekerja → bekerja
• clean → cleaned
  membersihkan → membersihkan

 

 

C. Tambahkan -ed pada kata kerja berakhiran vowel + y

Add -ed to verbs ending in vowel + y

English:
If a verb ends in a vowel + y, just add -ed.

Indonesia:
Jika kata kerja berakhiran vokal + y, cukup tambahkan -ed.

 

✳️ Contoh | Examples

• play → played
  bermain → bermain
• enjoy → enjoyed
  menikmati → menikmati

 

 

D. Ubah y menjadi i lalu tambahkan -ed

Change y to i and add -ed

English:
If a verb ends in consonant + y, change y to i and add -ed.

Jika kata kerja berakhiran konsonan + y, ubah y menjadi i lalu tambahkan -ed.

 

✳️ Contoh | Examples

  belajar → belajar
• carry → carried
  membawa → membawa
• try → tried
  mencoba → mencoba

 

📌 3. Ringkasan Pola | Pattern Summary
