The past tense of the word "possess" is "possessed." It's like taking hold of something in the past, like cupping it in your hand. 🌟✨✨
When we talk about the past tense of a verb, we're referring to an action that happened before the present moment. Just like how you might have possessed a toy or a book in the past. In English, we often change the ending of a verb to indicate that it happened in the past. So, by adding "-ed" to "possess," we transform it into its past tense form, "possessed."
It's important to note that regular verbs like "possess" typically follow this pattern in forming the past tense. However, irregular verbs do not follow a consistent pattern and have unique past tense forms. So, while regular verbs add "-ed," irregular verbs have their own specific past tense.
