Pasado simple: verbos irregulares (top 30)

La regla

Los verbos irregulares no siguen patron: hay que memorizarlos.

"Irregular verbs do not follow a pattern: memorize them."

Los verbos irregulares cambian de forma en pasado sin seguir reglas fijas. Los 30 más frecuentes cubren el 80% del uso real: be -> was/were, have -> had, do -> did, go -> went, get -> got, make -> made, take -> took, see -> saw, come -> came, give -> gave. La estrategia es agruparlos por patron (think/bring/buy -> thought/brought/bought) y practicarlos en frases reales, no en listas aisladas.
