⚡ The 'Past Action' Pattern
Look at these words from the story: stopped, arrested, found, started.
In English, when something happened yesterday or last year, we often just add -ed to the end of the action word.
- Stop → Stopped
- Arrest → Arrested
- Start → Started
Wait! One is different:
- Find → Found (This is a 'special' word; it doesn't follow the -ed rule).
