Предисловие
Эффективное изучение иностранного языка требует не только понимания грамматических правил, но и освоения практической лексики и глаголов, которые часто используются в повседневном общении. Неправильные глаголы в английском языке представляют собой особую сложность, так как их формы не подчиняются стандартным закономерностям. Поэтому запоминание и правильное использование этих глаголов является необходимым условием для уверенного владения языком.
Данная книга предназначена для системного изучения английских неправильных глаголов. Каждая глава посвящена определённой тематике, связанной с повседневной жизнью, эмоциями, общением, работой, путешествиями и важными событиями. В каждой главе представлен отобранный набор неправильных глаголов, их формы, объяснение использования, примеры предложений и практические упражнения для закрепления материала.
Упражнения построены таким образом, чтобы стимулировать активное вовлечение учащихся, сочетая письменную практику, личные размышления и применение глаголов в контексте. В книге также представлена полная справочная таблица всех неправильных глаголов, использованных в главах, что позволяет систематически повторять и закреплять знания.
Моя цель при написании этой книги — создать ясный, организованный и доступный ресурс, который поддержит изучающих в формировании уверенности и точности при использовании английских неправильных глаголов. Регулярное повторение и работа с практическими примерами помогут интегрировать эти глаголы в повседневное общение с большим удобством и точностью.
Я надеюсь, что эта книга станет для вас надёжным руководством и справочником, который поможет достичь заметного прогресса в изучении английского языка.

Then, they ate their main dishes. Anna ate a pasta salad and enjoyed it very much. Her friends ate pizza and steak. The waiter took the desserts quickly, and they chose a chocolate cake to share.
During the meal, Anna met some other people who were celebrating a birthday. Everyone got excited and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. After finishing their food, they paid the bill and left the restaurant.
Anna has come to this restaurant several times before, and she has found it always comfortable and welcoming. She has eaten many delicious meals and met interesting people there.
