past of teach
 
Hi every body, Hope you are okay..
I would like to know if we could say: I teached or taught?
I am sure that the second form is correct but I want to know if the first form is correct too? Thanks in advance

Taught is correct. As far as I know the first one is wrong.

There are millions of lists with irregular verbs on the net and here at ESL.
Just search and you will find.

There are a few verbs that you can use both regular and irregular forms for, but teach isn �t one of them, at least not yet. Dove and dived, dreamt and dreamed, pled and pleaded are a few examples. Be careful with hung and hanged, though. I hung my clothes after I did laundry. Iraq hanged Saddam Hussein about three years ago.
