⚡ The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how the text describes things that already happened. We use a special form of the word to show the action is finished.

The Change:

  • Beat → Beat (Stayed the same!)
  • Play → Played
  • Score → Scored

Why this matters for A2: To tell a story or report news, you usually add -ed to the end of the action word.

Quick Map: PlayPlayedEngland played first. ScoreScoredThey scored 76 runs.

The 'Odd' One: Some words don't follow the -ed rule. WinWonEngland won the series.
