6 Spelling rules: For regular verbs, add -ed to the base form. land = landed If the base form ends in e, add only -d If the base form ends in consonant followed by the letter y, change y to i then add –ed. If the base form ends with consonant-vowel-consonant, double the last consonant, then add –ed. receive = received marry= married stop= stopped

7 To make negative statements, use Subject + did not + the base form: (s) + (N) + (BF) Lindbergh didn’t have a radio with him.

8 To ask wh-questions, use: wh- word + did + subject + base form What did Lindbergh have with him?

9 Note: If you do not know the subject of the question, do not use did. subject Who kidnapped the Lindbergh’s baby? To ask yes/no questions, use: Did + subject + base form Did Lindbergh’s win Orteig’s contest?
