In this story, we see two ways of talking about time. This is the secret to moving from A1 to A2.
1. Things that already happened (The Past) We add -ed to the action word to show it is finished.
- use → used*
- treat → treated*
- stop → stopped*
2. Things happening now or generally (The Present) We use the word as it is, or add -s if it is one person/company.
