Note
A regular -ed form that does double duty. As a simple past it takes the reposted message as its object (she retweeted the update). As a past participle it follows have for the perfect (has retweeted) or be for the passive (was retweeted), where the message becomes the subject. Retweet is also a noun for the reposted message itself, but the -ed spelling belongs only to the verb.
