⚡ The 'Action' Pattern
Look at how we describe things that already happened. We use a special form of the word to show the story is in the past.
The Shift:
- Speak → Spoke (Incorrect here, we use Speaking for the moment it happened)
- Die → Died
- Find → Found
- Give → Gave
How to spot it: Most of the time, just add -ed to the end of the word.
- Want Wanted
The 'Rule Breakers' (Irregulars): Some words change completely. You must memorize these to reach A2 level:
- Find becomes Found
- Give becomes Gave
- Say becomes Said
