Not meaning to be vulgar; however, does anyone know if there is a past tense of "sh!t"?
Clearly, there is the present tense and a future tense. But a past tense? This doesn't sound correct: "I took a shat yesterday", nor does this, "I shatted yesterday".
Hmmm.....can the word even be conjugated?

(Sorry. It's Sunday evening and I've a lot of time on my brain; clearly very little else!)

Let us sum up the matter.

(to) 'SH!T' is an extremely informal English word which means to get rid of faeces from the body.

past tense - shat
past participle - shat
present participle - sh!tting

How to use this word :
The street is scattered with piles of dog sh!t (noun, always singular).
The dog shat right in the middle of the street. (verb in past tense)
I need to have a sh!t before I go out (phrase/ British English).
I need to take a sh!t before I go out (phrase/American English).

You are using it as a noun. Remember...person, place,thing? It's a thing and can not be conjugated. Your first example sentence uses the past tense "took." That indicates past tense. The second example is not acceptable because that form "shatted," is a hyper-correction. I suggest that if you want to use it as a verb then simply use it like "put," or "cut." Use the same form in present , past or past perfect tenses.

Examples:
Today I put the paper in the toilet.
I put the paper in the toilet yesterday.
I have put paper in the toilet every time I have used it.

Put your double-modified word there also.

shat, but it's not used much these days

"I took a shat yesterday" doesn't sound right because "took" is the verb, and "****" is the noun and does not have a past tense.

"I shatted yesterday" should be "I shat yesterday"

ps; yahoo substituted the ****

modern-day annoying provides a sense of immediacy. It feels to the reader like the events are taking position at the moment and it attracts her or him into the tale. it really is for this reason reliable for thrillers and dramatic thoughts. be careful, despite the indisputable fact that, it may properly be slightly wearing. And in case you take advantage of first man or woman modern-day annoying, that provides away the very incontrovertible fact that your narrator, if she or he undergoes any risky episodes contained in the unconventional, ought to live on them. Consistency is better. even with you opt for, make certain you retain on with all of it by ability of.

I think sh!t is the past tense form.

"I just sh!t."
