Simple Past Tense

image : ODY book page 50

Kalau kemarin Mr sudah membahas tentang Simple Present Tense. Maka untuk kali ini Mr akan membahas Simple Past Tense. Remember kalau Simple Present Tense adalah untuk kejadian yang sifatnya rutinitas atau berulang - ulang, maka untuk Simple Past Tense adalah sebuah kalimat yang digunakan untuk peristiwa yang sudah berlalu. Karena apa anak-anak? Karena kata "Past" itu sendiri artinya "Lampau / Sudah berlalu". 

Ini bisa terlihat jelas di Kata keterangan waktunya (ADV). Di antaranya adalah; yesterday, ...ago, last night, last Sunday, last month, last year, & this morning. So, itu secara tidak langsung adalah sebagai ciri - cirinya juga untuk membedakan dengan tenses yang lainnya.

OK, kita langsung ke materi.. Are you ready...???!!! Lets go...!!!

Sebelum masuk ke rumus yang perlu dingat adalah di Simple Past Tense kita memakai V2. Here, there are two kids of V2, ada 2 macam V2:

Regular Verb : yaitu Verb yang tinggal ditambah -ED or -IED di akhir kata kerja (Verb)

Example : 

cooked, dropped, paddled, visited, cleaned, played, invited, studied, walked, talked, looked, listened, watched, washed, etc. 

Ini aja ya? Kalau Mr catat semua bisa - bisa penuh nich satu halaman.

Irregular Verb : yaitu Verb yang dia berubah total, maksudnya berubah pengejaannya (spelling) & juga cara membacanya (pronunciation)

Example :

go - went          take - took         drink - drank          buy - bought

eat - ate            come - came       see - saw               make - made

put - put            break - broke     get - got                 bring - brought

give - gave         find - found        win - won            speak - spoke

fall - fell

Rumus Past Tense :

Positive     : S + V2

Negative   : S + did not + V1

Interrogative : Did + S + V1

Kalau di Simple Present Tense kita menegenal DO & DOES, kalau di Simple Past Tense kita hanya mengenal DID dan ini dipakai untuk semua ya... (I, They, You, He, She, It, Toni, Sinta).

Rumus Past Tense sulit? Nggak juga.. Lets continue..!!

INGAT : V2 hanya dipakai di kalimat POSITIF saja. (Rumus : Positif     : S + V2). Untuk Negatif dan Interrogative memakai V1.

POSITIVE

Rumus : Positive     : S + V2

 

Example : I cooked stew last night (Saya memasak stew tadi malam)

                 He dropped the plate yesterday (Dia (lk) menjatuhkan piring kemarin)

                 Toni came to your home 3 days ago (Toni datang ke rumahku 3 hari yang lalu)

It`s so quite simple, right? Mudahkan? yang penting kalian hafal perubahan Verb nya. OK, sebelum melanjutkan ke Negative & Interrogative INGAT V2 hanya dipakai di kalimat Posiitive.

Kalau boleh Mr melogika cooked adalah (did + cook), dropped (did + drop), came (did + come), etc

NEGATIVE 

Rumus : Negative   : S + did not + V1

Ingat Negative artinya TIDAK

Example:

Biar nggak tambah bingung Mr masih memakai kalimat sebelumnya;

I did not cook stew last night                           Note : Did not = Didn`t

She did not drop the plate yesterday

Toni did not come to your home 3 days ago

Ok, lets see together..!!  Sebagaimana di kalimat Positive Verb = cooked adalah did + cook, dikarenakan did keluar dan bergabung menjadi did not (didn`t) maka secara otomatis yang tadinya di positive cooked berubah menjadi cook. Dan begitu pula dropped & came...

Do you understand?  Good..!!

INTERROGATIVE

Rumus : Interrogative : Did + S + V1

Example : Mr masih memakai kalimat yang sama biar kalian tidak confused..

Did you cook stew last night? Yes, I did / No, I did not (didn`t)

(Kenapa yang tadinya I kemudian berubah menjadi You? Ya iyalah... Masa kita menanyakan hal ke diri kita sendiri? kan nggak lucu... He..He..) next...

Did she drop the plate yesterday? Yes, she did / No, she did not (didn`t)

Did Toni come to your home 3 days ago? Yes, he did / No, he did not (didn`t)

So far any questions? No, I think.. It`s quite simple kan?

sarkschool.com

I live in a village on Sark. Sark is a very small British island, near France. Only 600 people live on Sark. I`m happy here because my family and friends are here. I love school, too. There`s only one school on Sark and we sometimes play sports but often there aren`t many people to make teams.

The beaches here are very clean and they`re very quiet. There are two banks but there aren`t any shopping malls on the island. We have to go by boat for an hour to another island to go shopping! On Sark, there isn`t an airport and there aren`t any cars. We ride our bikes everywhere. It`s really quiet here.

I want to make new friends from different places. Do you like living in Seoul?

Please email me soon. I want to know about your life in a big city!

Body : They have very long tongues and their feet have claws. They are very good at climbing.

Color : Chameleons are very clever-they use color to show how they feel or to hide. They can change color when they are nervous, scared, hot, or cold. A panther chameleon turns red when it is angry.

Places : A lot of chameleons live in Madagascar in Africa. Some live in India, too. They like hot, dry places.

Food : Chameleons eat insects and they are good at catching flies with their long tongues. Meller`s chameleons are big chameleons and they also eat small birds.

Today, we`re walking to a wildlife park that`s next to the camp.

Here`s a photo of me with my friends and a photo of last night`s campfire.

want / wants to & have / has to

Hello class? Nice to meet you again in English. Right, kali ini Mr akan menjelaskan pada kalian terkait pemakaian kata WANT/WANTS TO & HAVE/HAS TO. Sebenarnya jika you sudah paham tentang Simple Present Tense maka secara tidak langsung kalian paham materi ini. Bedanya di materi kita kali ini (want/wants to & have/has to) disebut to invinitive atau kata kerja (Verb) yang membutuhkan kata kerja (Verb) lagi, yakni V1. Coba perhatikan rumus di bawah ini..!!

 RUMUS :

want / wants to + V1

have / has to + V1

NOTE : Ingat rumus They, We, I, You (dewi ayu) tidak mau -s & He, She, It mau -s

Do you remember? Itu lho yang sudah Mr bahas di Simple Present Tense. Great..!!

Berarti bisa kita terapkan di WANT/WANTS TO & HAVE/HAS TO juga;

want to / have to ---> itu untuk Pronoun They, We, I, You

Example : I want to go to the park.

                                 V1

                 They want to come to the library.

                                         V1

                 You have to go to the airport.

                                      V1

                 We have to play football.

                                     V1

have to / has to ---> itu untuk Pronoun He, She, It

Example : She wants to go to the dentist.

                                       V1

                 He has to do his homework.

                                 V1

                 Flo wants to go to the shopping mall.

                                      V1

OK, class.. Do you understand now? Mr yakin kalian sudah paham karena ini sama penggunaannya di Simple Present Tense

Simple Present Tense

Hello class.. How are you today? In the last meeting kita telah membahas tentang Comprative Sentence. Do you understand? Mr yakin kalian sudah paham materi di Unit 1 itu. Right, Saat ini Mr akan membahas Present Tense atau Simple Present Tense digunakan untuk menyatakan peristiwa atau kejadian, kegiatan, aktivitas dan sebagainya yang terjadi saat ini. Present Tense juga bisa digunakan untuk menyatakan suatu fakta / kejadian, atau sesuatu yang tejadi berulang-ulang dimasa KINI. Ingat, PRESENT artinya adalah kini, sekarang.

Sebelum masuk ke rumus yang perlu diingat di Simple Present Tense ada perbedaan dalam pemakaian Kata Kerja (Verb), biasanya dengan symbol (V). Di Simple Present Tense  ada 3 Verb yang dipakai; V1, Vs, atau Ves

V1 --- They, We, I, You (Atau untuk lebih mudah diingat “THEY-WE-I-YOU tidak mau ES” plesetan dari kalimat “DEWI AYU tidak mau ES”

Vs atau Ves --- He, She, It & Nama Orang Ke-3 tunggal (Ani, Ayu, Toni, dst) (Untuk lebih mudah diingat “HE-SHE-IT tidak mau ES”)

Di INGAT juga untuk membedakan dengan tenses yang lain ada cirinya untuk Simple Present Tense. Ini bisa dilihat di kata keterangan waktu (ADV) ; usually, often, sometimes, never, everyday, every morning, every night, every month, every year)

Rumusnya:

Positif             : S + V1 (s/es)
Negatif            : S + DO/DOES + NOT + V1
Tanya             : DO/DOES + S + V1

Example:

Kalimat Positif Present Tense

I eat fried chicken
She eats fried chicken
We eat fried chicken

You go to Jakarta

He goes to Jakarta

They go to Jakarta

Untuk You & They tidak bisa “goes”, mengapa? Sebagaimana di awal sudah kita jelaskan tadi.

Tetapi yang ini malah tambah ES:

He goes to Jakarta (tambah ES). 

INGAT : Rumus HE-SHE-IT mau ES & THEY-WE-I-YOU tidak mau ES

Kalimat Negatif Present Tense

Rumusnya :

Negatif            : S + DO/DOES + NOT + V1

Bentuk Negatif, artinya menyatakan TIDAK. Maka sesuai rumus Present Tense, setelah SUBJECT ditambah DO atau DOES, baru NOT, lalu tambah kata kerja bentuk pertama tanpa S atau ES lagi. Anak – anak tentunya bertanya - tanya S atau ES nya dimana? Sudah di doES tadi.

Untuk THEY-WE-I-YOU karena tidak mau ES maka memakai DO
Untuk SHE, HE, IT, Toni, Ani karena mau ES maka memakai DOES

I do not eat fried chicken                    NB: do not = don`t
She does not eat fried chicken                    does not = doesn`t
We do not eat fried chicken 

Coba perhatikan She does not eat fried chicken. Eat nya tidak pake S lagi, pindah ke doES. Tidak bingungkan? So pasti anak-anak level 5 pinter-pinter. Yes, belajar bahasa Inggris kalian tak boleh manja, harus aktif, baru akan bisa. OK?

Kalimat Tanya Present Tense

Kalimat tanya untuk Present Tense sesuai rumus diatas, atau Mr tulis lagi seperti ini:

Tanya: DO/DOES + S + V1

INGAT : Rumus HE-SHE-IT mau ES & THEY-WE-I-YOU tidak mau ES Contohnya begini:

Kalimat positifnya: I eat fried chicken
Kalimat tanya menjadi: DO you eat fried chicken?

Kalimat positif: She eats fried chicken
Kalimat tanya: DOES She eat fried chicken?

Kenapa pada kalimat DOES She eat fried chicken? Eat-nya tidak memakai S? Ingat di awal S-nya sudah pindah ke doeS

Simple kan? Ya kan? hehe.. Kalau kalian sering mempraktekannya ini sehari-hari maka tentu saja akan terasa lebih mudah.

Ok, begitu dulu pelajaran Present Tensenya kali ini Mr kira that`s enough, semoga kalian paham. Untuk pertanyaan bisa kalian ketik komen di bawah ini. Thank you very much, kalian telah setia mengikuti pelajaran Mr tentang Simple Present Tense kali ini.
