In Arabic, the past tense is produced with a system of suffixes. You use the same suffixes regardless of which of the ten verb forms you're using. Here's Examples showing the past tense of typical Form I verb so you can spot the suffixes in a pinch.
هُوَ شَرِبَ: huwa shariba
هَم شَرِبُو: hum sharibuw
هِيَ شَرِبَت: hiya sharibat
هُنَّ شَرِبنَ: hunna sharibna
أنتَ شَرِبتَ: anta sharibta
أنتُم شَرِبتُم: antum sharibtum
أنتِ شَرِبتِ: anti sharibti
أنتُنَّ شَرِبتُنَّ: antunna sharibtunna
أنا شَرِبتُ: anaa sharibtu
نَحنُ شَرِبنَا: nahnu sharibnaa
