The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how we describe things happening in the past. In this story, we use a simple pattern: Person + Action word (ed).

  • Shouted \rightarrow (shout + ed)
  • Locked \rightarrow (lock + ed)
  • Worked \rightarrow (work + ed)

Why this helps you: To reach A2, you must stop saying "I go yesterday" and start using the -ed ending for finished actions.

The 'Exception' Rule: Some words are rebels and don't use -ed. In the text, look at these:

  • Say \rightarrow Said
  • Take \rightarrow Took
  • Find \rightarrow Found

Quick Guide: If the action is over \rightarrow add -ed (usually) or use the special form (irregular).
