What Is The Past Tense Of Spin?

What is the Past tense of spin?

 

Answer:

Span is an older strong past tense form of spin — this is the past tense form that existed in the older Germanic ancestors of English. In German, for example, the past tense of spinnen is still spann. In English, span has mostly fallen out of use in favor of spun for both the past participle and simple past forms. This is a form of paradigm leveling. It has occurred in other words like sting (no stang) but not in ring (where we do have rang).
