When I have to use past and when the past participle?? I wrote a book or I had wrote a book? In Italian we always say - I had wrote and we don't say I wrote...

I wrote a book. I had written a book. You use the past participle form when you use perfect tenses and passive voice (eg. The book was written by me.) Basically, past participles always need an auxiliary verb (to be/to have) and cannot stand alone. Or was your question about the perfect tenses (wrote vs. have/had written)?

It's a bit different in English. I wrote books = I wrote books in the past. Past participle is used to describe something that happened in the past before some other event in the past. "I had written books before I wrote my best-seller"
