Daftar Irregular Verbs (Kata Kerja Tak Beraturan)

Sebagai bahasa asing yang cukup rumit, bahasa Inggris memiliki 209 buah kata kerja yang menjadi unsur penting pada sebuah kalimat. Ratusan kata kerja itu dinamakan “irregular verbs” atau kata kerja yang tak beraturan.

Mengapa tidak beraturan? Karena kata kerja bentuk lampau di dalamnya tidak harus diakhiri dengan –ed dibelakangnya. Walaupun ada beberapa kata kerjanya yang ditambah akhiran tersebut.

Kata kerja tidak beraturan terdiri dari bentuk past (lampau) dan present (sedang terjadi), yang masing-masing memiliki penyebutan yang berbeda. Tidak seperti kata kerja beraturan atau “regular verbs” yang harus ditambah dengan –ed dibelakang. Bentuk verb 3 atau disebut juga past participle kata kerja bentuk lampau yang sudah dimodifikasi oleh participle dan bentuk yang lebih lampau dari verb 2.

Dari kata kerja sebanyak 209 itu, hanya 129 bentuk kata kerja yang dianggap penting dan sering digunakan pada bahasa Inggris. Untuk itu, di bawah ini adalah daftar 209 kata kerja tidak beraturan atau “irregular verbs” tersebut. Bagi yang penasaran, silakan dipelajari.
