⚽ Talking about the Past
When we tell a story about a game that already happened, we change the action words.
The Pattern:
- Win Won
- Play Played
- Say Said
- Is Was
Quick Guide: Most words just need an -ed at the end (like played). But some special words change completely (like win becoming won).
