to verb (el verbo : ar, er, ir) simple past form (pretérito) past participle (participio pasado) Carrala Ficklin-McClain La mayoría de los verbos irregulares en ingles son irregulares en el tiempo, pretérito ( escribir : yo escribí/ to write : I wrote). Los verbos que sean irregulares en el pretérito , también son irregulares en la forma del verbo participio pasado. Se usa el participio pasado con el verbo haber (to have) para formar los tiempos perfectos: presente perfecto (he escrito/ I have written) , pluscuamperfecto (había escrito/ I had written), futuro perfecto (habré escrito/ I will have written), potencial compuesto (habría escrito/ I would have written), perfecto de subjuntivo (haya escrito/ I have written), pluscuamperfecto de subjunctivo (hubiera escrito o hubiese escrito/ I would have written). hubiese escrito/ I would have written). El participio pasado se usa con el verbo ser y estar, (to be), para formar la voz pasiva (La carta fue escrita/ The letter was written. La puerta está cerrada/ The door is closed.). La voz pasiva se usa mucho más frecuentemente en inglés que en español. La voz pasiva se usa en inglés en lugar del la forma impersonal hispana "se" (Se escribió la carta/ The letter was written.) hablar (ejemplo 1) (yo) hablé hablado comer (ejemplo 2) (yo) comí comido
