The idea
Regular verbs form the past and the participle by adding d or e d; irregular verbs change in other ways.
In practice
Bake, baked, baked is regular; write, wrote, written and go, went, gone are irregular, and English has about two hundred such verbs.
Where people slip
When unsure of an irregular form, check a dictionary rather than your ear.
