Vocabulary Learning
🕒 Talking about the Past
In this text, we see how to describe someone's life using Past Tense verbs. For an A2 learner, the most important thing is recognizing the difference between a 'regular' action and a 'special' action.
1. The 'ED' Pattern (Easy) These verbs just add -ed at the end to show the action is finished:
- work worked*
- help helped*
- want wanted*
2. The 'Change' Pattern (Tricky) Some verbs change their whole look. You must memorize these:
- is was*
- do did*
- go went*
Quick Look: Putting it together
"He was a leader... He worked at a university... He went to Jammu."
Tip: If you see -ed, it's usually the past. If the word looks completely different (like 'go' becoming 'went'), it's an irregular past verb.
