Use it together with Verb Conjugation: The Six Forms of a Verb , which explains what each form does and how the spelling rules work. Spelling follows British English.
1. How to Read the Table
Infinitive is to plus the base form. It is never the main verb of a sentence.
Base form (V1) is used with I, you, we, they and plural nouns, and after do, does, did and modal verbs.
S / ES form is used only in the present simple with he, she, it or a singular noun.
Past simple (V2) is the second form. Past participle (V3) is the third form and needs a helper such as has , had or was .
Present participle (V4) is the -ing form and needs a helper such as is or was .
Regular and irregular
This list has 1,045 rows: 801 regular and 244 irregular. For regular verbs, V2 and V3 are the same and end in -ed . Irregular verbs are shown with their changed forms in red.
