× but my dad was a reader so I think he is went to the library very often
✓ but my dad was a reader so I think he went to the library very often
The phrase 'he is went' is incorrect because 'went' is the past tense form of 'go' and should not be preceded by 'is'. The correct form is simply 'he went'. This error involves misuse of the past participle form and auxiliary verb. To improve, use the simple past tense 'went' without 'is' when referring to past actions.
× but I don't know if he take me with him or not
✓ but I don't know if he took me with him or not
The verb 'take' should be in the past tense 'took' to match the past context indicated by 'don't know if he...'. Using the base form 'take' here is incorrect. To improve, use the past tense 'took' when referring to past events.
