The past tense form of the verb "foresee" is "foresaw". Just like with other irregular verbs, you've gotta keep that one in your mental library. That's English for you - like a spicy bowl of unpredictable chili! Every spoonful, or in our case, verb, may bring a different flavor to the mix. Whereas regular verbs like "watch" or "walk" have a simple, recipe-like formula (just add "ed" for past), irregular ones like "foresee" march to the beat of their own drum. They say, "Hey, I don't want to be like those other verbs – I'm going my own way!". And so they do, with "foresee" becoming "foresaw" and us just shrugging and saying, "Well, alright then!". So next time you're recounting a story about your impressive psychic abilities, remember – you foresaw it, not "foreseed"! 😄
