Simple Past Tense Is used to show actions that have already finished. I took a test. She drove to the university. We worked hard. We swam in the lake yesterday.

To form the negative of a verb in the past tense, you need to use the auxiliary verb did. She didn’t drive to work. We didn’t watch TV. Notice that when you form the negative, the main verb is in the base or simplest form.

To form the question in the past tense, you need to use did as the auxiliary verb. Again the main verb will be in its simplest or base form. Did you work yesterday? Did the professor come to class? Did she wash the car?

Exception The Verb BE in the past : (was,were) You do not use did with was or were. I was tired. They were worried. I wasn’t tired. They weren’t worried. Was I tired? Were they worried?

Example of the Three Forms: Affirmative, Negative, Question.
