🔀 Irregular Past Simple Verbs
Regular verbs end with -ed (work → worked). Irregular verbs have their own past forms — learn them by heart! Click a card to see the past.
Like regular verbs, the past form is the same for everybody: I went, she went, they went. Tip: say them in groups that sound alike — bought, brought, thought · got, forgot · came, became.

🃏 Understanding Business Cards
A business card typically includes the person's name, company name and job title. It also includes contact information: address, phone number, email and possibly a fax number. Many cards also show a company logo or slogan, and sometimes social networking contacts. Click each part of the card!

Exchanging cards: A: Let me give you my business card. B: Thanks. Here's mine. · 🔒 Safety first: business cards are for adults at work. Kids never give their real phone number, address or email to people they don't know!
