Explicação:

→→ Simple past   >>   tempo verbal que descreve ações que aconteceram no passado.

• Verbos regulares : são verbos que terminam em ''ed'' quando estão no passado

I watched TV yesterday. >> Eu assisti TV ontem.

John worked last week. >> John trabalhou a semana passada.

• Verbos irregulares: são verbos que não terminam em ''ed'' no passado. Cada verbo irregular tem sua forma própria de fazer o passado, ou seja, não seguem nenhuma regra e, por isso, é necessário decorá-los.
