🕒 The 'Past Time' Pattern

Look at how the story tells us things that already happened. To talk about the past in English, we often just add -ed to the action word.

Examples from the text:

  • Play \rightarrow Played
  • Start \rightarrow Started

The 'Rule Breakers' (Irregular) Some words change completely. You just have to remember them:

  • Win \rightarrow Won
  • Be (is/are) \rightarrow Was/Were
  • Hit \rightarrow Hit (This one stays the same!)

💡 Quick Tip for A2: If you see 'did not', the action word goes back to its normal form.

  • Correct: They did not hit the ball.
  • Wrong: They did not hitted the ball.
