🕰️ Talking about the Past

To tell a story about something that already happened, we often change the action word (verb) by adding -ed.

Look at these changes:

  • Marry \rightarrow Married
  • Want \rightarrow Wanted
  • Ask \rightarrow Asked

Wait! Some words are 'rebels' and change completely:

  • Kill \rightarrow Killed (Regular)
  • Shoot \rightarrow Shot (Irrebel/Irregular)
  • Find \rightarrow Found (Irrebel/Irregular)
  • Tell \rightarrow Told (Irrebel/Irregular)

Quick Tip for A2: If you see -ed, the action is finished. If the word changes its shape (like find \rightarrow found), you just have to memorize it! This is how we move from talking about 'now' to talking about 'yesterday'.
