⚽ The 'Past' Pattern

When we talk about a game that is finished, we change the action word. Look at how the words change from Now to Then:

  • Beat \rightarrow Beat (stays the same!)
  • Play \rightarrow Played
  • Score \rightarrow Scored
  • Change \rightarrow Changed

The Simple Trick: To tell a story about yesterday, just add -ed to the end of most action words.
