ප්‍රවර්ගය:English verbs with weak preterite but strong past participle

Wiktionary වෙතින්

These verbs have a "weak" preterite, but may have a "strong" past (or passive) participle ending in "-en".

The verbs "do" and "go" were of this type even in Old English and Proto-Germanic. The others are either originally weak verbs that have acquired an optional strong past participle, or originally strong verbs that have acquired a weak preterite.

The verb "go" is suppletive, meaning that a different root is used for the preterite.

The verb "hide" used to be weak; hide, hid, hid, but now one usually says "hidden" instead of "hid" for the participle.
