To solve this problem, we need to identify which verbs are irregular. Irregular verbs do not follow the standard rule of adding “-ed” to form the past tense. Instead, they change in different ways — like “go” becomes “went,” or “see” becomes “saw.”
Let’s go through each verb one by one:
1.
cooked → This is regular. You add “-ed” to “cook.” So, NOT irregular.
2.
chose → This comes from “choose.” It doesn’t use “-ed.” So, YES, irregular.
3.
saw → From “see.” No “-ed.” YES, irregular.
4.
decided → Regular. Add “-ed” to “decide.” NOT irregular.
5.
ran → From “run.” Not “runned.” YES, irregular.
6.
stopped → Regular. Double the ‘p’ and add “-ed.” Still follows a pattern. NOT irregular.
7.
caught → From “catch.” Doesn’t use “-ed.” YES, irregular.
8.
sang → From “sing.” Not “sing-ed.” YES, irregular.
9.
worked → Regular. Add “-ed” to “work.” NOT irregular.
10.
wanted → Regular. Add “-ed” to “want.” NOT irregular.
11.
rang → From “ring.” Not “ringed” (in this context). YES, irregular.
12.
looked → Regular. Add “-ed” to “look.” NOT irregular.
13.
tried → Regular. Change ‘y’ to ‘i’ and add “-ed.” Still follows a rule. NOT irregular.
14.
began → From “begin.” Not “begined.” YES, irregular.
15.
broke → From “break.” Not “breaked.” YES, irregular.
Now, let’s list all the irregular verbs we found:
- chose
- saw
- ran
- caught
- sang
- rang
- began
- broke
These are the ones that should be circled.
Final Answer:
chose, saw, ran, caught, sang, rang, began, broke
