🕰️ Talking About the Past

In the story, we see two ways to talk about things that already happened. This is the key to moving from A1 to A2.

1. The Simple 'Past' Action When something is finished, we often add -ed to the end of the word.

  • Work → Worked
  • Help → Helped
  • Ask → Asked

2. The 'No' Version (Negative) When we want to say something did not happen, we use a special formula: Did not + Basic Word

  • He did not win (Not: did not won)
  • He did not reach (Not: did not reached)
  • They did not agree (Not: did not agreed)

Quick Map: Positive Statement → Use -ed (e.g., He worked) Negative Statement → Use did not + basic word (e.g., He did not work)
