🕒 Talking About the Past
To reach A2, you must change action words (verbs) to show things already happened. Look at how the story changes words:
- Find Found (The police found him)
- Visit Visited (People visited the circle)
- Kill Killed (He killed Isaac)
- Want Wanted (He wanted to know)
The Pattern: Most words just need -ed at the end to move to the past. Some "rule-breaker" words (like find found) must be memorized separately.
