Change the underlined verb into past tense:We plan to go to the movie...
Regular verbs are those whose past tense and past participles are formed by adding a -d or an -ed to the end of the verb.
Option B is correct. In some cases, the last consonant in the verb must be doubled before adding the -ed ending. Thus, the past tense of "plan" is "planned" where the ending consonant "n" is doubled before adding the -ed ending. Going by this explanation, option A is incorrect.
Option C is incorrect since no change has been made to the verb. "Plan" is present tense and not past.
Option D is incorrect as the correct answer is B
