Key Notes:

- Some verbs have irregular past tense and past participle forms (e.g., knit → knitted, light → lit/lighted).
- The Present Perfect tense uses the auxiliary verb "has/have" followed by the past participle form of the verb.
- Verbs like learn can use both learnt (British English) and learned (American English).
