Vocabulary Learning
⚡️ The "Past Action" Pattern
Look at how the story describes people. Everything happened in the past.
The Secret: Just add -ed to the action word.
- Work Worked
- Talk Talked
- Use Used
Real Examples from the Text:
- "Joe Hart worked for the BBC."
- "They talked about the games."
Special Case: The "Did Not" Rule When we say "no" in the past, the -ed disappears. We use did not + the simple word.
They did not talkedThey did not talk
Quick Tip for A2: If you see -ed, it is finished. If you see did not, it is a finished "no".
