it rained

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple past), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist active indicative, 3rd person singular, denotes a simple completed action in past time. "It rained" preserves the impersonal third-singular force typical of weather verbs while reflecting the root meaning of causing rain to fall.
