	Irregular verb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In contrast to regular verbs, irregular verbs are those verbs that fall outside the standard patterns of conjugation in the languages in which they occur.
		In Old English, by contrast, the strong verbs are usually not considered irregular, at least not only by virtue of being strong verbs: there were several recognised classes of strong verbs, which were regular within themselves.
		Truly irregular verbs in Latin are a rather small class; they include esse ("to be"); dare and its derivatives ("to give"); êsse ("to eat"); ferre and its derivatives ("to carry"); velle and its derivatives ("to wish"); ire and its derivatives ("to go"); and fieri ("to become").

	Susan Jones's Verb List
		The principal parts of the English verb are the base form, the simple past, and the past participle.
		Verbs in English can be classified according to three different criteria: tense (present, past), aspect (perfect, progressive), and modality.
		Following are the rules for using the principal parts of a verb, as well as a list of the irregular verbs showing all 3 parts, and a complete list of all the verb 'tenses' in English.

		Verbs are subdivided into two groups, regular verbs and irregular verbs, on the basis of how their past tense and past participles are formed.
		Regular verbs are those whose past tense and past participles are formed by adding a -d or an -ed to the end of the verb.
		The ten commonest verbs in English (be, have, do, say, make, go, take, come, see, and get) are all irregular, and about 70% of the time we use a verb, it is an irregular verb.

	An Algorithmic Approach to English Pluralization
		The English language is overburdened with idiosyncratic grammatical features, a legacy of its eclectic accretion over 1500 years [2,3].
		English is sufficiently flexible that programmers, faced with the task of generating text of a changeable number, may easily enough recast their synthetic prose into "number-inclusive" forms.
		Other compromises (which might perhaps more heavily favour the verb sense of a word) may also be defined, by selecting different subsets of the three algorithms or by changing the order in which the various subsets are used.

		Thus, if you learn only a single irregular verb, you can be certain that any other prefixed variant on that verb is irregular in the exact same manner.
		The trend, in English, and especially in American English, is to standardize the irregular verbs.
		We do not foresee all the irregular verbs ever being standardized, but some of the more minor variations in less commonly used words will probably disappear in the next genration or two.

		German strong verbs (like English irregular verbs) are often the ones we use most frequently.
		Since German and English are such close cousins, these verbs are usually strong in their English equivalents (if they are cognates) as well.
		They are usually found at the end of a clause, where you normally find the other bits of two-part verbs in German (such as separable prefixes, or dependent infinitives after modals, or predicate nouns and adjectives: ich habe dich gestern gesehen; er sieht gern fern; wir wollen nach Hause gehen; meine Freundin ist Deutsche).
