Explanation:

All of the verbs above are regular verbs, which makes their Simple Past form quite easy to make. Take a look at the rules below:

1. We must add -d to regular verbs ending in -e.

like - liked

dance - danced

change - changed

use - used

2. We must add -ed to regular verbs that do NOT end in -e.

visit - visited

3. If the verb has only one syllable ending in consonant + vowel + consonant, we must double the final consonant before adding the -ed.

stop - stopped

4. If the verb ends in a consonant + y, we must drop the -y and add -ied.

carry - carried

try - tried

NOTE: If the verb ends in vowel + y, it belongs to the second rule and not this one. In other words, we do NOT drop the -y. We simply add -ed.

play - played

enjoy - enjoyed
