List irregular verbs
An irregular verb is a verb that does not follow the usual pattern of conjugation in the language, it does not form its past tense and past participle by adding -ed or -d to the base form. In English, regular verbs form the past tense and past participle by adding -ed to the base form of the verb. For example, the regular verb "walk" becomes "walked" in the past tense and "have walked" in the past participle.
On the other hand, irregular verbs have different forms for the past tense and past participle. For example, the irregular verb "go" becomes "went" in the past tense and "gone" in the past participle. Irregular verbs do not follow a specific pattern and you need to memorize them.
Irregular verbs are an important part of the English language and it's important to be familiar with them in order to use the language effectively.
