RE: consonant-stem verbs
Examples of consonant stem verbs are 書く, 読む, and 泳ぐ. They are consonant verbs because they dont end with ru or u as the suffix. Although there are a few verbs that end with ru that are actually consonant verbs such as 切る.Freedom wrote:

The ~ta form is the past tense form. For example: 食べる becomes 食べた.
RE: consonant-stem verbs
Actually, I read that the c-stem verbs end in -u and the v-stem (vowel) verbs end in -ru. The exceptions are kuru and suru (to play, to do).

RE: consonant-stem verbs
i read....
Regular I verbs end in: -ku, -gu, -su, -tsu, -nu, -bu, -mu, -ru, -(w)u and sometimes -iru and -eru.
Regular II verbs end in: -iru and -eru only.
so if a verb ends in -iru or -eru then you have to remember which group it is in I or II.
you have to remember the irregular verbs.
everything else is I.
