Identify the regular verb.

This question was previously asked in
TNPSC Group 2 2026 Prelims Question Paper (01-Nov-2026)
The correct answer is

Talk

A regular verb forms its past tense and past participle by adding ‘-ed’ or ‘-d’ to the base form; an irregular verb changes in some other way.

‘Talk’ becomes ‘talked’ in the past tense and ‘talked’ as the past participle — the regular ‘-ed’ pattern.

‘Go’ is irregular: go – went – gone. ‘Eat’ is irregular: eat – ate – eaten. ‘Sing’ is irregular: sing – sang – sung, changing its inner vowel instead of adding ‘-ed’.

Only one of the four verbs follows the ‘-ed’ rule in both the past tense and the past participle.

Talk option is correct.
