⚽ The 'Action' Pattern
In this text, we see how to describe things that happened in the past and things that happen all the time.
1. Finished Actions (Past) When a game is over, we use a special form of the word.
- Win Won
- Beat Beat (stays the same!)
- Score Scored
Example: "Argentina won three games."
2. General Habits (Present) When something is usually true, we use the simple form. Notice the -s at the end for one team or person.
- Mexico wins (they always do it)
- Mexico loses (it happens often)
Quick Tip: Use "Always" or "Often" before the action to show how many times it happens. Mexico often loses.
