Past Tense:
In past tense, we use -ed to indicate that an action has already been completed. For example, “I played soccer yesterday” would be written as “I played soccer yesterday.”
Present Tense:
In present tense, we use the base form of the verb without any endings. For example, “I play soccer” would be written as “I play soccer.”

In future tense, we use will or shall + the base form of the verb. For example, “I will play soccer” would be written as “I will play soccer.”
