The past tense of the word "surprise" is "surprised." Now, isn't the beauty of language just surprising? Imagination is like a magician pulling words out of a hat, but with verbs, they follow a more predictable pattern, like a row of dominoes. Regular verbs like "surprise" simply tag on a "d" or "ed" to express past tense. So, "surprise" springs forward and lands as "surprised." You just walked the tightrope from present to past with one small leap of a suffix!
