Hello everyone! Hope someone can answer my question. I really don’t like reading long grammar articles with all those rules and exceptions. So, could anyone clarify what is the past tense form for “happen”? Is it “happened” or “happend”?

How to write “happen” in the past tense? Is it happened or happend?

Hello it is happened in the past tense thank you 

The correct answer is  "happened". If verbs such as happen, look, cook, help end in consonant letters such as "n" or "k" or "p" always add -ed at the end of the consonant letters so as to turn the verb into the past tense. Please let me know if this explanation assisted you.

The correct one is "happened" . For more learnings, book me a session .

The past tense and past participle of happen is " happened" .  Adding  " ed"  to  this verb changes it to the past tense.

Hello, Ewan. The rule for this verb would be to add -ed.

Happened :) Regular Verb in this case; has the -ed rule for the past form.

I have been working on a platform called Preply for 7 months, and am really starting to find my own unique style and approach with teaching. To me, making classes fun, engaging and compelling is the key to effective and effortless learning. 

I have taught loads of really cool people from all around the world, teaching them English and also building up their confidence with conversational speaking.

In our 1-1 lessons, we'll be using a less known but extremely powerful way of learning, through ACQUISITION. This is literally the opposite of the traditional way; you will immerse yourself in the language, through reading and listening, as well as videos with transcripts that translate to your native language and we will create stories together too. The idea is to completely indulge yourself in the language, and by doing so will NATURALLY learn grammar, new vocabulary and everything else that goes into becoming fluent. We'll then focus on the output (speaking and writing) in the class room along with pronunciation. 

With me and my classes, you will be given regular material (audio and text) to learn new vocabulary and start understanding grammar (in context) in a very effective, fun and exciting way - through acquisition / comprehensible input.. this is on top of our lesson! I like to always overdeliver -:)
