This is a table of irregular verbs that we know as V1
in the first column (“eat", present simple)
V2 is the second column (“ate”, past simple form),
V3 is the third column (“eaten”, past participle)
Lots of people forget that a verb that ends in “d” or “ed” doesn’t
have to be a verb in the simple past.
Maybe it’s a regular verb in V3 .For example:
love
hate
worry
loved
hated
worried
loved
hated
