Ways to tell them apart:
Spread
is both the base form and the past tense of the verb, as it is irregular and does not follow the common
-ed
ending pattern.
Many verbs follow the regular past tense form by adding
-ed,
but
spread
is an exception to this rule.
Remember that
spreaded
is an incorrect form in standard English usage, so you should always use
spread
for all tense constructions.
