A simple past tense verb is just a verb in past tense without any helping verbs.

Example: Ran, hid, jumped, laughed, etc.

For regular verbs the past is formed by adding -ed to the verb eg walk - walked, talk - talked, listen - listened, harass - harassed.

For irregular verbs the form has to be learnt as it is not verb + ed. eg run - ran, eat - ate, cut - cut. understand - understood.

Examples of past simple sentences:

I ate all the cake. My mother shouted at me. The dog barked. The neighbour swore at the dog.

A simple past tense verb indicates an action that was completed in the past. It usually ends in "-ed" for regular verbs (e.g., walked, jumped) or has an irregular form for irregular verbs (e.g., ate, ran).
