Pengertian Simple Past Tense

 

Simple Past Tense yaitu tense yang berfungsi untuk menyatakan suatu agresi atau insiden yang terjadi di masa kemudian (lampau).

 

Pola Kalimat:

 

(+) Subject + Verb 2 + Object

(-)  Subject + did + not + Verb Infinitive (Verb 1)

(?) Did + Subject + Verb Infinitive (Verb 1)

 

Contoh Kalimat:

(Mereka tidak tiba ke pesta ulang tahun aku kemarin malam)

(?) Did you study Math for four hours two days ago?

Simple Past Tense biasanya diakhiri dengan kata kerja berakhiran –ed.

• The police stopped me on my way home last night.
