The past tense of the word 'applaud' is 'applauded'. This follows a general rule in English where we simply add 'ed' to regular verbs to form the past tense. Like a fading echo in a magnificent theatre, the applause may die away, but its memory is captured in that simple 'ed'. Think of it like a standing ovation turned into a lovely keepsake: 'applauded'.
