⚡ The 'Past Action' Pattern
Look at these words from the story:
- Won
- Helped
- Said
- Played
- Scored
- Beat
What is happening? These words tell us about things that are finished. In English, we change the word to show the time has passed.
The Simple Switch: Regular words just add -ed at the end:
- Play → Played
- Help → Helped
Some words are 'rebels' and change completely:
- Win → Won
- Say → Said
- Beat → Beat (stays the same!)
Why this helps you reach A2: To move past beginner level, you must stop talking only about now. Using these 'finished' words allows you to tell a story or share a memory.
