How do you conjugate 밑돌다 in Korean?

What is the past tense of 밑돌다?
밑돌았어요 in everyday polite speech, 밑돌았습니다 formally. It is built from the 아/어 form 밑돌아 plus ㅆ, which is why an irregular stem shows its irregularity here.
Is 밑돌다 irregular?
Yes — it is ㄹ dropping (ㄹ 탈락). ㄹ drops before ㄴ, ㅂ and ㅅ: 살다 → 삽니다. Regular, but universal. That is why the stem looks different in 밑돌아 and 밑도니 but unchanged in 밑돕니다.
