Hello Katabah!
In English, we know term
“regular and irregular verb”. But Indonesian doesn’t know them. A verb form for
present tense, past tense and perfect tense is same. Let’s see the examples
below:
A. Regular Verb
Present: suka (like)
Past: suka (liked)
Perfect: suka (liked)
To express Past Tense,
we can use word “sudah” before a verb, e.g.:
Present Tense:
Saya suka makan.
(I like eating)
Past Tense:
Saya sudah suka makan.
(I liked eating)
Other regular verbs:
1. membantu (help),
sudah membantu (helped)
2. ingin (want), sudah
ingin (wanted)
3. menjawab (answer),
sudah menjawab (answered)
4. etc.
B. Irregular Verb
We can say that
Indonesian also doesn’t have irregular verb because one verb can be applied to
all tenses: Present, Past and Perfect. Let’s see these examples:
Present: terbit (arise)
Past: terbit (arose)
Perfect: terbit (arisen)
Let’s make a sentence
using irregular verb!
Present Tense:
Matahari itu terbit.
(The sun rises)
Past Tense:
Matahari itu telah
terbit.
(The sun arose)
