Past tense
grammatical tense / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Past tense is a verb form which is marked by time (tense).
The past tense is used for actions in a time which has already happened.[1] In order to explain and understand past tense, it is useful to imagine time as a line on which the past, the present tense and the future tense are positioned.[2][3]
Words in English have several tenses, including many common past tenses. The two that are used the most are the simple past tense and the perfect tense
