This word with a lot of past tenses
$begingroup$
This interesting word is full of past
Starts with a past tense verb.
Add a letter at the end and you have a different past tense verb.
Then add more letters at the end and you get yet another past tense
verb.
Remove one letter from this word and - you guessed it - you have yet
another past tense verb.
So what is it?
