Vocabulary Learning
🕒 Past vs. Now
Look at how we talk about decisions versus current feelings.
The 'Already Done' (Past) When something happened and is finished, we often add -ed to the action word:
- Choose Chosed (Wait! This one is special Chose)
- Visit Visited
The 'Right Now' (Present) When talking about who they are or what they like today, the word stays simple:
- He is a player.
- He likes the school.
- He wants to play.
💡 Quick Tip: The "S" Rule
Notice that when we talk about one person (He), we put an -s at the end of the action:
- He plays
- He wants
- He likes
