🕒 The 'Past' Story

To reach A2, you must describe things that already happened. Look at how the story changes the action words (verbs):

  • Regular changes (just add -ed):

    • arrest \rightarrow arrested
    • happen \rightarrow happened
  • Special changes (the word changes completely):

    • say \rightarrow said
    • tell \rightarrow told
    • go \rightarrow went
    • pay \rightarrow paid

Quick Tip: If you see "did not," the action word goes back to normal. Example: "did not use" (NOT "did not used").
