Sentence 3 is not good.

Incidentally, I'm American. That's important to consider when you read my next comment. Very few people in the US use the form "learnt." We use "learned." There are some people who use "learnt." It is an older form used by some people in the southern states. Those people might also say, "spelt" for "spelled."

In the US, we use "dreamed" and "dreamt" equall
