To express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past
grammatical
rules
To form the past simple with regular verbs, we use the infinitive and add the termination "-ed". The form
is the same for all persons (I, you, I, she, it, we, they).
For verbs ending in an "e", we only add
"-d".
If the verb ends in a short vowel and a consonant (except "and" or "w"), bend the final consonant.
With verbs ending in a consonant and a "and", changes the "and" with an "i".

Grammatical Rules
With the future simple uses the modal auxiliary (verb modal) along with the basic
form of the main verb (the infinitive).
In the future simple the verb does not change shape when you use "I, she, it" or when
you spoke in "third person."
In the prayers negative in future simple the verb is in the infinitive and auxiliary is used
"won't".
