Difference between "spake" and "spoke"

As far as I know: "To speak" Present tense: I, you, we, they, you all/y'all speak he, she, it speaks Past tense: I, you, we, they, you all, he, she, it spoke Present progressive: speaking Past participle: spoken So there is no forms such as "spake" at least that I heard of. Have a nice day. Pablo

I remember from one of articles that I've read.. that "spake" and "spoke" are both past tense of speak.. but the word "spake" is an OLD ENGLISH word that was used in literary poems and other old stories while the word "spoke" is used in MODERN ENGLISH .. thank you for bringing up this topic.. I've learned a lot..

spake is used in archaic english language. i think i have read something about it. it is commonly used in literary poetic compositions and is used so that it could rhyme some words before as it should in a poem. it only means "spoke" anyway. it's just used in poems and yes, the word spake does exist, as far as i know.

Um, i don't think - SPAKE is even a word but if it is, it doesn't have anything to do with talking! SPOKE is something you have done, to SPEAK is something you are currently doing or are going to do! I know the English language is kind of hard to make sense of sometimes when you don't have it as your native tongue but it's definitely worth learning since most countries speak it now anyway. I wish you well & hope you can work out the present, future & past tenses of everything!
