Different forms of irregular verbs

In this podcast episode, the hosts discuss three different groups of irregular verbs - verbs that do not follow the regular pattern of adding -ed to form the past tense and past participle. The first group, exemplified by the verb 'ring', includes verbs with different forms for the base verb, past simple, and past participle. The second group, including verbs like 'say', has only two forms, with the past simple and past participle being the same. The third and largest group features verbs with all three forms being different, such as 'take'. The hosts mention various examples like 'take-took-taken', 'see-saw-seen', and 'write-wrote-written' to illustrate these irregular verb patterns.
