🛠️ The 'Action' Connection

In this story, we see how to describe people doing things in the past. We use a simple pattern: Person + Action Word (Past).

Look at these shifts:

  • Wear \rightarrow Wore (They wore blue shirts)
  • Cover \rightarrow Covered (They covered their faces)
  • Feel \rightarrow Felt (He felt scared)
  • Take \rightarrow Took (Photographers took pictures)

💡 A Simple Rule for A2

Most words just need an -ed at the end (like covered), but some words are 'rebels' and change completely (like wore or felt).
