uregelrette verb

Mange verb på engelsk har uregelrett bøyning. Det betyr at man ikke legger til -ed, men at man bøyer verbet på en annen måte. Disse må man lære seg. Man finner riktig bøyning av alle verb i ordbøker. Her følger noen oppgaver med noen av de uregelrette verbene som ofte blir brukt.

oppgave 60Velg riktig norsk ord eller infinitiv og skriv det ved siden av det engelske verbet. Å gå, å spise, å drikke, å lage, å gjøre, å ha, å vite, å fortelle, å våkne, å være, å ta

norsk infinitiv preteritum presens perfektum

å drikke to drink drank drunk

to do did done

to be was/were been

å lage made made

to eat ate eaten

to have had had

to go went gone

å fortelle told told

to wake woke woken

å vite knew known

å ta took taken

Vi har bøyd to be i presens. Det er mange som blander mellom preteritumsformene was og were. Les derfor nøye.
