The 'Naganap' aspect describes actions that are finished; simply change the verb prefix to 'nag-' or use the infix '-in-'.

  • For Mag- verbs, change 'mag-' to 'nag-': Magluto -> Nagluto (Cooked).
  • For -um- verbs, change '-um-' to '-um-' (stays same) or add 'n-' prefix: Kumain -> Kumain (Ate).
  • For -in verbs, use the infix '-in-': Bili -> Binili (Bought).
Root Verb + Past Marker (Nag-/N-/In) = Completed Action

💡

Focus on the 'N'

⚠️

No 'Did'

Never translate 'did' literally. Filipino verbs carry the tense information within them.
🎯

Actor vs. Object

Practice identifying if you are the one doing the action (Actor) or if you are doing something to an object (Object).
💬

Casual Speech

Smart Tips

Don't look for 'did'. Conjugate the verb directly.

Did ako kain. → Kumain ako.

Always remember the agent marker 'ko' or 'niya'.

Binili ang libro. → Binili ko ang libro.

Start with actor-focus (Nag-) as it is more common.

Iniluto ko ang pagkain. → Nagluto ako ng pagkain.

Add 'na' after the verb.

Kumain ako. → Kumain na ako.
