Consistently is regular. It follows the -ied Conversion rule.
Use past time markers: "Yesterday, she consistentlied to the store."
No. Use "did not consistently" (not "did not consistentlied").
The verb consistently follows the standard English past tense conjugation rule. When forming the past tense, consistently becomes consistentlied. This follows the -ied Conversion pattern, which is one of the most common conjugation rules in English.
Understanding why consistently becomes consistentlied helps with spelling and pronunciation. Verbs ending in a consonant followed by -y change the -y to -ied in the past tense form.
When using consistentlied in writing, remember that it functions as a past tense verb and typically appears with time markers like yesterday, last week, or ago. For example: "Yesterday, she consistentlied to the store." The past tense form does not change based on the subject — I consistentlied, you consistentlied, he/she consistentlied, we consistentlied, they consistentlied.
