Vocabulary Learning

🧩 The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how the story describes what people did. To move from A1 to A2, you need to change 'do' words to the Past.

The Secret: Just add -ed to the end of the word.

  • Clean \rightarrow Cleaned
  • Look \rightarrow Looked
  • Want \rightarrow Wanted

⚠️ The 'Rule Breakers'

Some words are 'rebels.' They don't use -ed. You must memorize them as a pair:

  • See \rightarrow Saw (Vozinha saw his mother)
  • Write \rightarrow Wrote (They wrote a note)
  • Come \rightarrow Came (She came to the game)

Quick Tip: Use these when talking about yesterday or a finished event!
