🕒 The 'Past' Secret

Look at these words from the story:

  • scored
  • beat
  • played
  • helped

What is happening? Most of these words end in -ed. This is how we tell a story about yesterday or last year.

Simple Rule: Action now \rightarrow play Action before \rightarrow played


⚖️ The 'Balance' Words

Sometimes we have a good thing, but then a bad thing happens. We use BUT to connect them.

  • Example: They scored 21 points, but it was not enough.

Try to remember: [Good Idea] \rightarrow BUT \rightarrow [Bad Result]


🔢 Counting Things

In English, we use the word EACH when everyone has the same number.

  • Text: "scored 21 points each"
  • Meaning: Player A (21) + Player B (21).

It is faster than saying "Player A had 21 and Player B had 21."
