The correct answer is C. be•gan, be•gun, be•gin•ning

Step-by-step explanation:

In grammar, the forms of a verb refer to the variations of a verb used in different tenses or forms that changes depending on whether a verb is regular or irregular. In the case of dictionary entries that provide information about words it is common to find in the section of forms of the verb, the root form of the verb or the verb without being conjugated, the past form of the verb, the past participle form of the verb and the participle form of a verb which ends in -ing. This, in the case of the verb "Begin" includes the word begin, began, begun and beginning. Therefore, the one that tells you the forms of the verb is "be•gan, be•gun, be•gin•ning".
