Verbos Irregulares
Un verbo irregular es aquel que, en algunos de sus tiempos, tiene una forma particular al ser conjugado. En inglés estas particularidades son más comunes al conjugar en pasado simple y pasado participio, por eso, en mi explicación me enfocaré en estos tiempos gramaticales.
Llegando a la parte que realmente les interesa, comencé memorizando los verbos uno a uno, lo cual probó no ser un método muy efectivo, especialmente porque yo quería aprender inglés rápido y retener esa información.
Esta tabla cubre una amplia gama de verbos irregulares de uso frecuente en inglés, lo que proporciona una referencia útil sobre sus formas y significados en español.
