when to use began and begun
0 I'm writting a story for school, and i've been having some trouble with it. 02 br
02 br
00 I've always been confused with using began and begun. I know that began is the past tense of begin, and begun is the past participle of begin. 02 br
02 br
00 But what's the diffrence? 02 br
02 br
00 Here is two sentence examples 02 br
02 br
01 i 00 Everything begun to fade and that’s when I knew it was all a dream. 02 br
02 br
02 i 00 Would i use begun or began? 02 br
02 br
00 And would i say 01 i 00 I begun to say 02 i 00 or 01 i 00 I began to say 02 i 00 ! 02 br
02 br
00 Ah it just confuses me. 02 br

00 Both times "began" in your examples. 02 br

00 Unless you have "I had" or "I have" you'll be pretty safe assuming it's "began." 0-
