Reglas de escritura para verbos regulares

• -e final: añade solo -d → live → lived
• Consonante-vocal-consonante (CVC) con acento en la última sílaba: duplica la consonante final → stop → stopped, plan → planned
• -y final tras consonante: cambia y por i y añade -ed → study → studied, carry → carried

Errores comunes para hispanohablantes

No uses el pasado doble: En inglés, después de did / didn't siempre se usa el verbo en infinitivo, ¡nunca en pasado!
✗ I didn’t went → ✓ I didn’t go
✗ Did she ate? → ✓ Did she eat?
