Чтобы свободно говорить по-английски, нужно знать около 150 неправильных глаголов.
Полный список английских неправильных глаголов содержит 470 единиц, примерно 100 из которых устаревшие или очень редкие.
Оставшиеся 360-370 я основательно прополола, удалив из списка те производные, которые легко узнать, типа WRITE → REWRITE, UNDERSTAND → MISUNDERSTAND.
Важнейшие 174 содержит следующая таблица.
Я настоятельно рекомендую растянуть удовольствие их заучивания на полгода или год, беря не больше одного в день.
