Question 54

Which sentence uses a form of lose or build correctly?

  1. The company losed three contracts in the recession.
  2. They built the two-storey extension themselves last year.Correct answer
  3. He has builded a reputation for careful work.

Explanation

Lose and build each end their past in -st or -t and reuse that one form after have, so "They built the extension themselves" is the only sound sentence here. Losed and builded impose the regular ending on verbs that reject it, and the genuine forms, lost and built, serve the past simple and the participle alike.
