What is the correct verb Clara had gave or given tape to Ana?

The correct verb is given.

The sentence should read: "Clara had given tape to Ana."

Here's why:

* Given is the past participle of the verb "give".

* Had given is the past perfect tense, which is used to describe an action that happened before another past action.

The sentence implies that Clara gave the tape to Ana in the past, and this action happened before something else.
