My friends got up from the chair.

This sentence in Urdu reads میرے دوست کرسی سے اٹھے۔, in Hindi मेरे दोस्त कुर्सी से उठे।, and is often typed in Hinglish as Mere dost kursi se uthe.. In English, it translates to: My friends got up from the chair..

Grammar Point: The Past Simple tense (irregular verb) describes a completed past action — here, "got" (base form: "get").

Structure: Subject + got + detail (e.g., I got up from the chair).

Usage Tip: Irregular verbs don't follow the "-ed" rule, so memorize common ones like "get → got". Here it's followed by "up from the chair" to add detail.
