The past tense form of the word "lean" is "leaned". This is a regular verb, which means its past tense is typically formed by adding -ed to the end of the word. However, in some British English dialects, the past tense can also be "leant". So, both "leaned" and "leant" are accepted in different regions. It's like the cool thing about language, you see? It's not always cut and dried, sometimes there's a bit of wiggle room, sort of like a flexible tree branch that bends (or leans) with the breeze!
