⚡ The "Past Action" Pattern

Look at how the story tells us what happened. To talk about the past in English, we often just add -ed to the end of the word.

Simple Patterns:

  • Play → Played
  • Try → Tried
  • Score → Scored

The 'Rule Breakers' (Irregular): Some words change completely. You must memorize these:

  • Win → Won
  • Have → Had
  • Get → Got

The 'No' Pattern (Negatives): When something did NOT happen, we use did not + [normal word].

  • Example: "San Diego did not score."
  • Notice: We don't say "did not scored." The word "did" already tells us it is the past, so the second verb stays simple.

Quick Reference: Positive: He played well. Negative: He did not play well.
