The Simple Past is used to talk about actions that happened and were completed at a specific time in the past. The structure is simple: subject + verb in the past (regular: -ed; irregular: varies) + complement. Example: 'I visited my grandparents last weekend.'

Regular verbs in the Simple Past are formed by adding -ed to the end of the infinitive verb. If the verb ends in e, only -d is added. Examples: 'work' becomes 'worked', 'live' becomes 'lived'. It is important to pronounce the final sound correctly, which can be /d/, /t/ or /ɪd/, depending on the last sound of the verb.

Irregular verbs in the Simple Past have special forms and must be memorized as they do not follow a fixed rule. Some examples are: 'go' becomes 'went', 'see' becomes 'saw', and 'eat' becomes 'ate'. A good practice is to create study lists and review them regularly.

To formulate questions in the Simple Past, simply place the auxiliary 'did' at the beginning, followed by the subject and the infinitive verb. Example: 'Did you enjoy the movie?' Remember that 'did' already indicates the past, so the verb returns to its base form.

The negative form in the Simple Past is formed with 'did not' or 'didn't', followed by the infinitive verb. It does not matter whether the verb is regular or irregular in this structure. Example: 'I didn't like the food at the party.'

The Simple Past is used to talk about complete actions in the past, past habits, events of short duration, or sequences of actions. It is important to accompany these verbs with time markers such as 'yesterday', 'last year', 'in 2010', etc., to specify when they occurred. Examples: 'She lived in Chile in 2010. She traveled to Argentina last year.'
