⚡ The 'Past Action' Pattern

To talk about things that already happened (like a sports game), we change the end of the word.

The Rule: Just add -ed to the action word.

  • play → played
  • help → helped
  • finish → finished

Wait! Some words are 'rebels' (Irregular): They change completely. You must memorize these:

  • win → won
  • beat → beat (stays the same!)
  • get → got

Quick Check:

  • Wrong: The Mariners win the game yesterday.
  • Right: The Mariners won the game yesterday.
