What's the past tense of the word "spring"?

This is what goPenpal answered

The past tense of the word "spring" is "sprung". The word "spring" is an irregular verb which doesn't follow the usual "-ed" rule we see in regular verbs. Instead, its past simple and past participle forms are the same, "sprung". It's interesting, isn't it? English is full of surprises! 😄
