과거 단순: 규칙 동사 (-ed 규칙)
Past Simple, regular verbs, -ed rule!
Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds
Use the Past Simple to talk about finished actions in the past by adding '-ed' to regular verbs.
- Add '-ed' to most verbs: 'walk' becomes 'walked'.
- For verbs ending in 'e', just add '-d': 'dance' becomes 'danced'.
- Use 'did not' (didn't) + base verb for negatives: 'I didn't walk'.
Overview
E와 D라는 글자에 그토록 집착하는지 궁금해한 적이 있나요? 사람들이 어제에 대해 이야기할 때 동사에 갑자기 작은 꼬리가 생기는 것을 눈치채셨을 겁니다. 그 꼬리는 보통 -ed입니다.-ed를 받습니다.go나 went와 같은 반항적인 불규칙 동사와는 달리 규칙을 따릅니다. 규칙 동사는 문법 세계의 믿음직한 친구입니다.-ed 유니폼을 입고 있습니다.How This Grammar Works
I worked, you worked, she worked, we worked, they worked.-ed 어미에 대한 철자 규칙만 배우면 되고, 기본적으로 자신의 인생에 대한 역사가가 될 수 있습니다.Formation Pattern
-ed를 추가하는 것이지만, 동사가 어떻게 끝나느냐에 따라 동사가 입을 수 있는 4가지 특정 «의상»이 있습니다. 매번 철자를 정확하게 맞추려면 다음 단계를 따르세요:
-ed만 추가하면 됩니다.
work는 worked가 됩니다.
play는 played가 됩니다.
watch는 watched가 됩니다.
e로 끝난다면 욕심부리지 마세요. d만 추가하면 됩니다.
like는 liked가 됩니다.
live는 lived가 됩니다.
dance는 danced가 됩니다.
ee가 겹치는 것을 좋아하는 사람은 아무도 없습니다. 동사가 비명을 지르는 것처럼 보이니까요.)
y로 끝난다면, y는 긴장해서 -ed를 추가하기 전에 i로 변합니다.
study는 studied가 됩니다.
cry는 cried가 됩니다.
try는 tried가 됩니다.
y 앞에 모음이 있다면(play처럼), y는 행복한 상태를 유지합니다. play -> played가 됩니다.
-ed를 추가하기 전에 마지막 자음을 두 번 씁니다.
stop은 stopped가 됩니다.
plan은 planned가 됩니다.
chat은 chatted가 됩니다.
played games. | 나는 게임을 했다. |
did not play games. | 나는 게임을 하지 않았다. |
Did you play games? | 너는 게임을 했니? |
When To Use It
- 완료된 동작: 끝난 일에 사용하세요.
I
(지금 다시 어질러져 있더라도 청소하는 *행위*는 끝난 것입니다.)cleanedmy room. - 과거의 습관: 정기적으로 하던 일에 사용하세요.
어렸을 때 나는 매일 학교에
walked(걸어갔다). - 스토리텔링: 이것은 이야기를 하거나 사건을 이야기할 때 주로 사용하는 시제입니다.
먼저, 나는 이를
brushed(닦았다). 그런 다음 이메일을checked(확인했다). 마지막으로 일을started(시작했다). - 특정 과거 시간:
yesterday,last week,in 2020, 또는two hours ago와 같은 단어와 함께 자주 사용됩니다.
그는 너무 많이 talked(말했다)라거나 우리는 함께 영화를 watched(봤다)와 같이요. 장면을 설정하고 장을 닫습니다. 전문적인 환경에서도 좋습니다.나는 5명의 팀을 managed(관리했다)라거나 나는 새로운 앱을 developed(개발했다)라고 말할 수 있습니다. 이는 여러분의 성취가 이력서상의 확실한 사실임을 보여줍니다.Common Mistakes
- 'Y'의 함정: 많은 사람들이
studyed라고 씁니다. 그y가i로 변해야 한다는 것을 기억하세요.studied입니다. - 자음 겹치기 망각:
stopped대신stoped라고 쓰는 것. 그 이중p는 단어의 리듬에 중요합니다. - 불규칙 동사와 혼동:
-ed를 원하지 않는 동사에 추가하지 않도록 주의하세요. 사람들이goed나eated라고 말하는 것을 들을 수도 있습니다. 이것들은 틀렸습니다! 그런 동사들은 불규칙하며 자신만의 비밀스러운 형태를 가지고 있습니다. - 발음 오류: 이것이 중요한 포인트입니다.
-ed를 말하는 방법은 세 가지가 있습니다.
- 1
/t/처럼 (p,k,s,ch와 같은 무성음 뒤):watched는watch-t처럼 들립니다. - 2
/d/처럼 (l,v,n과 같은 유성음 뒤):played는play-d처럼 들립니다. - 3
/id/처럼 (t또는d소리 뒤에만):wanted는wan-ted처럼 들립니다.
-ed를 «에드»로 발음하려고 하지 마세요. 두 개의 명확한 음절로 I play-ed라고 말하면 1950년대 영화의 로봇처럼 들릴 것입니다. 로봇도 멋지지만, 여러분은 아마 사람처럼 들리고 싶을 것입니다.- 의문문에서 'did' 잊기: 공식적인 영어에서 끝을 올리는 것만으로
You played?라고 말할 수는 없습니다. 이 도우미가 필요합니다:Didyouplay?
Contrast With Similar Patterns
I have worked)를 혼동합니다. 차이점은 다음과 같습니다.- 과거 단순: 시간이 끝났습니다.
나는 어제 넷플릭스를
(어제는 지났습니다.)watched(봤다). - 현재 완료: 시간이 끝나지 않았거나 동작이 여전히 중요합니다.
나는 오늘 에피소드 세 개를
(하루가 여전히 진행 중입니다.)have watched(봤다).
I was working)과 혼동하지 마세요.- 과거 단순: 완전한 동작.
나는 너에게
(전화가 일어났습니다.)called(전화했다). - 과거 진행: 진행 중이었던 동작.
전화가 끊겼을 때 나는 너에게
(동작이 중단되었습니다.)was calling(전화하고 있었다).
Quick FAQ
he, she, it에 따라 동사를 바꾸나요?
아니요! 그것이 과거 단순의 마법입니다. 누구에게나 똑같이 유지됩니다. He played, she played, it played.
played는 두 음절로 발음되나요?
아니요, 단 한 음절입니다! Playd입니다. started(star-ted)처럼 동사가 t나 d로 끝나는 경우에만 추가 음절을 더합니다.
모든 동사에 -ed를 사용할 수 있나요?
그러면 좋겠지만, 아닙니다. «규칙» 동사에만 해당됩니다. 불규칙 동사는 따로 외워야 합니다. 미안해요!
동사가 규칙인지 모를 때는 어떻게 하나요?
영어의 대부분의 새로운 동사들(googled, texted, vaped 등)은 규칙 동사입니다. 현대적인 단어라면 거의 항상 -ed가 붙습니다.
어떻게 부정문으로 만드나요?
did not(또는 didn't)을 사용하고 기본 동사로 돌아갑니다. "I didn't work.« »I didn't worked"라고 말하지 마세요.
아주 오래전에 일어난 일에 이것을 사용할 수 있나요?
물론입니다. 2초 전이든 200만 년 전이든, 끝난 일이라면 과거 단순입니다.
영어는 왜 이 모양인가요?
언어는 우리가 유창해지기 위해 노력하게 만드는 것을 좋아하기 때문입니다. 다른 언어들처럼 20가지 다른 격이 없는 것만으로도 다행이라고 생각하세요!

Smart Tips
Check if you have both 'didn't' and an '-ed' ending. If you do, delete the '-ed'!
Look at the letter before 'y'. If it's a vowel (a, e, i, o, u), just add -ed (played). If it's a consonant, use -ied (studied).
Use the Past Simple for the main events to keep the story moving forward.
If you can't remember the /t/ or /d/ rule, just don't add an extra syllable. Most errors come from adding 'id' where it doesn't belong.
발음
The /ɪd/ sound
If the verb ends in /t/ or /d/, the -ed is pronounced as an extra syllable /ɪd/.
The /t/ sound
If the verb ends in an unvoiced sound (p, k, s, ch, sh, f), the -ed sounds like /t/.
The /d/ sound
For all other voiced endings, the -ed sounds like /d/.
Falling intonation in statements
I worked yesterday. ↘

기억법

시각적 연상
Imagine a big red 'STOP' sign at the end of a road. The road is the past, and the sign is the '-ed' ending that shows the action has stopped and is finished.
Rhyme
When the action is done and in the past, add an -ed to make it last.

문화 노트
In many English-speaking cultures, being direct about past achievements is important in job interviews. Using strong regular verbs like 'managed', 'organized', and 'improved' is key.
Americans often use the Past Simple in situations where British speakers might use the Present Perfect, especially with 'just' or 'already'.
On platforms like Instagram, the Past Simple is used in captions to describe 'photo dumps' or weekend recaps.
The '-ed' suffix comes from the Germanic 'weak' verb conjugation system.

자주 묻는 질문 (8)
English has 'regular' and 'irregular' verbs. Regular verbs always follow the `-ed` rule. Irregular verbs (like 'go' -> 'went') have unique forms that you must memorize.
Only if 'be' is the main verb (e.g., 'I was happy'). Don't use it with other verbs (e.g., say 'I worked', not 'I was worked').
It depends on the sound at the end of the base verb. Use `/id/` only after 't' or 'd' sounds (like 'started'). Use `/t/` after unvoiced sounds and `/d/` after voiced sounds.
Yes! As long as the action is finished, it doesn't matter if it happened `five minutes ago` or `five million years ago`.
`Didn't` is a contraction used in speaking and informal writing. `Did not` is more formal and used for emphasis.
It is one syllable: /pleɪd/. Only verbs ending in 't' or 'd' (like 'wanted') add an extra syllable for the -ed.
This is the '1-1-1 rule': 1 syllable, 1 vowel, 1 consonant at the end. We double the consonant to keep the vowel sound short.
No. `Yesterday` is a specific finished time, so you must use the Past Simple: `I worked yesterday.`
