🚩 The "Action-Time" Connection

Look at how the story moves from the past (what happened) to the future (what will happen). This is the key to A2 storytelling.

1. The Past (Finished Actions) We add -ed to the end of the action word to show it is over.

  • Arrest → Arrested
  • Start → Started

2. The Future (Upcoming Events) We put the word will before the action word.

  • Will go → (He is not at court now, but he goes later).

Quick Mapping: Past (Happened) \rightarrow Future (Plan) Arrested \rightarrow Will go to court


💡 Simple Tip: If you see -ed, look backward in time. If you see will, look forward in time.
