Take note... 1- Even though the past tense suffixes (i.e. endings shown above in red) are regular the internal structure of the verb might change while conjugating it into the past tense. Don't panic. You will acquire internal structural changes as you move forward. 2- When you learn a verb learn it in BOTH its simple past and present tense form.
