This brings us to a common confusion between “happend” and “happened.” Let’s sort this out. The correct form is “happened”. “Happend” is a common misspelling and is not recognized in English grammar. Happened” is the past tense of the verb “happen,” which means to occur or take place.

Correct spelling, explanation: happened is the correct form, because contrary to such words as planned or beginning, the n in happened is not a part of the stressed syllable.

1. to take place; come to pass; occur. 2. to come to pass by chance; occur without apparent reason or design. 3. to have the fortune or lot (to do or be as specified); chance: I happened to see him on the street. 4. to befall, as to a person or thing: Don't worry; nothing happened to her.
