If you were talking in past tense would it be dragged or drug?

Question

I drug the dear into the woods
or
I dragged the dear into the woods

which one is correct my cousin would like to know and the english teacher says that he is wrong that its dragged but he thinks its drug, and I guess they had a steamy debate about it.

Answer 1

I dragged the dear into the woods.
I drugged the dear in the woods.
I dragged the drugged dear out of the woods.
What a drag! What a dear!
But never drug the dear into the woods. Your dear English teacher is correct.

Answer 2

The answer is dragged, because dragged is the past tense of drag. Drug is a present tense verb which means, basically, to somehow introduce drugs (of any kind, including medicine) into someone's body. The past tense of this verb is drugged. For instance, you might say, "The nurse drugged me before my operation."

Therefore, your correct sentence would be, "I dragged the deer into the woods." (As other people pointed out, you have to correct your spelling of deer.)

Hope that helps!
