"Happend" is an incorrect spelling of the word "happened" – the past tense of the verb "to happen." The correct and proper term is "happened," which is used to describe an event or occurrence that took place in the past.
When something "happens," it means that it occurs, takes place, or comes to pass. The term encompasses a wide range of events, from simple, everyday occurrences to significant incidents. It often refers to something that was not planned or expected.
In the past tense form, "happened" implies that the particular event or situation in question has already transpired or took place at an earlier time. It is commonly used to narrate or discuss past incidents, actions, or experiences.
For instance, one might say, "Yesterday, an interesting conversation happened at work," highlighting an incident that occurred the previous day. Similarly, it can be used to convey statements like, "After the storm subsided, some damage happened to the buildings," emphasizing the events that transpired after the storm.
Overall, "happened" serves as a key component of the English language, allowing individuals to express and reflect on past occurrences, thereby aiding effective communication and storytelling.
"Happen" is derived from the Old English word "happian", which means "to come to pass", "to occur", or "to chance". It can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "happōną". Over time, this word evolved into "happen" in Middle English, with "ed" being added as a past tense suffix. Thus, "happend" is the past tense of "happen".
