Description
Irregular Verbs: The Ultimate Guide is for students of English who need to learn and practise the most commonly used irregular verbs.
It was written as a self-study material, but teachers will find it suitable for use in class.
Both students and teachers of English will also find the book useful for revision and consolidation.
The irregular verbs are arranged in alphabetical order and there are 18 units in the book.
All irregular verbs approached are classified as very frequent words in the sixth edition of the renowned Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English.
The first unit focuses exclusively on the verb to be. Because of its uncommon conjugation, it was approached separately.
Each following unit consists of a group of five verbs.
The Pay Attention section presents five example sentences in the past simple tense and five example sentences in the present perfect simple tense.
The Practice Makes Perfect section brings exercises about such verb tenses.
It’s worth mentioning that the past participle forms are used to make the perfect tenses and all the passive forms.
The Additional Exercises section (pages 197-205) provides more activities to practise the past simple and past participle forms of the main irregular verbs in English.
Students may check their answers by looking at the Key to Exercises at the back of the book.
Irregular verbs play a vital role in the English language.
They make up only 3.6% of the verbs, but they outnumber the frequency of regular verbs in spoken and written English.
It’s also important to point out that the ten most commonly used verbs in English are irregular.
