⚡ The "Past Action" Pattern

Look at these words from the story: killed, went, looked, found, attacked, died.

These words tell us something happened before now.

The Simple Rule: Most of the time, we just add -ed to the end of the action word to move it to the past.

  • Look \rightarrow Looked
  • Attack \rightarrow Attacked

The Tricky Ones (Irregular): Some words change completely. You must memorize these because they don't follow the -ed rule:

  • Go \rightarrow Went
  • Find \rightarrow Found

Example from the text: "The army and police went to Shopian." (They are not going now; they went in the past.)
