Vocabulary Learning
⚡ The 'Winner' Pattern
In this story, we see one word used over and over: won.
What is it?
Won is the past version of win. We use it when the game or race is finished.
How it works:
- Today: I win the race. Now
- Yesterday: I won the race. Past
Spotting it in the text:
- "Melissa Jefferson-Wooden won..."
- "Tate Taylor... won..."
- "Kayinsola Ajayi won..."
Quick Guide for A2: If you want to talk about a victory that already happened, stop using "win" and start using won. It is an irregular change (it doesn't end in -ed), so you must memorize it!
Bonus Tip: Who is who?
Notice how the text uses names first, then a shortcut word:
Nikki Hiltz She
Tate Taylor He
