HOW TO AVOID THE DREADED irRegulaR VERBS...AND SPEAK LIKE ANY NATIVE!

Fly   flew   flown

Fly today

Flew yesterday

...have flown often

In daily spoken English, most native people use a simple formula to skip the irregular verbs. Like the one above. ( They have trouble remembering them, too!....hehe...)

They use the first form of any verb like this:

" I've been flying often!"

Have been & Verb & ing

I've been walking by the river.

They've been drawing a tree.

In most cases it works very well to express what you want to say.

There are times when it's better to use the  actual second form of the verb, like here:

He drew a line!

A symbolic meaning ( idiom ). As in " He stopped the (excessive spending)!"

So, you can use the verb in its easy, first form most of the time in spoken, daily talk...just remember:

have/has been    &

verb                       &

ing

Work hard, but...

Have fun !
