The past tense form of the word 'mend' is 'mended'. This falls under the category of regular verbs, where we generally add '-ed' to the base form to express the past. Battles with broken things are common, and so is the act of mending. When you've a puncture in a bike tire, you 'mend' it. After you've fixed it, you've 'mended' it. Like a craftsman restoring a vintage car, language too repairs and connects the past to the present, don't you think? Therefore, to say you fixed something yesterday, you'd say, "I mended it."
