--description--

You've already learned about the Past Simple tense. Now, you can explore it further.

The Past Simple tense is often formed by adding -ed to a verb. But, when a verb ends with an -e, you just add a -d. For example, notice becomes noticed.

To notice means to become aware of something, often because you see or realize it. For example:

She noticed a mistake in the report. - This means she saw the mistake.
