Vocabulary Learning
⚡ The 'Past Action' Pattern
In this story, we see how to talk about things that already happened. We mostly use a simple change to the word.
The Rule: Add -ed to the end of the action word.
- jump jumped
- stay stayed
- mov moved
Watch out! Some words are 'rebels' and change completely. You must memorize these:
- is was
- come came
- say said
- hit hit (stays the same!)
Quick Example: "The pilot said he saw drones." Both actions are finished.
