Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Always use the base form of the verb "notice" after the auxiliary verb "did". The correct phrasing is "Did you notice...?"
Common error
Avoid using the past tense form of the verb "notice" after "did". Using "did you noticed" is a common grammatical error. The auxiliary verb "did" already indicates past tense, so the main verb should remain in its base form.
