Arnuad, vous êtes clairvoyant
I was just about to ask about the drink, drank drunk
phenomenon
and other such vowel alternations
and why so many irregularities and folk forms
in non-standard US English we have forms such as
dive -dove
fight-fit,
shit, shat
bring, brang brung, also broughten
take, tuck, tooken
help, holp, holpen
and many others, although you often have to go pretty
far up into the mountains to find them
