Sumimasen, I use Japanese, so please don't hesitate to ask for the romaji. I need some help with conjugating verbs from past-plain form to past-masu form. Like getting おなかがおすいた and changing it to it's masu form. (For those who need to know, my sesnsei said the verb was go-dan {class 2} so if that helps at all)

Please note, for future reference, the sticky for asking these sorts of question is RIGHT, UP, THERE. Please use that instead of making separate threads about these sorts of matters.

To answer your question the polite past tense is "-mashita"

My apologies, I'll make sure to pay attention next time.

Last entry here, I know I shouldn't being using this topic here, I apologise deeply. I just got off the phone with my friend, and I would like everyone to know that because すいた is a go-dan verb, it has a specific ending for plain/dictionary from. Thusly, as go-dan verbs ending in いた started off with a く. So すいた becomes すく  which ends up beingすきます which then, put into past form, is すきました.  鯉雪先輩、どうもありはとうございましたよ。 sorry for the trouble.
