🕒 The "Then" Effect

When we tell a story about what happened, we use simple words to show the order of events. Look at how the story moves:

First \rightarrow Marlins scored runs. Then \rightarrow Seattle took a lead. Finally \rightarrow Marlins won.


⚡ Power Verbs (Past Simple)

To talk about the past, we change the action word. In this story, most words just add -ed:

  • Play \rightarrow Played
  • Score \rightarrow Scoredn* Tie \rightarrow Tied

Watch out! Some words are "rebels" and change completely:

  • Win \rightarrow Won
  • Beat \rightarrow Beat (stays the same!)
  • Take \rightarrow Took

💡 A2 Tip: Using "Very"

If you want to make a description stronger, put very before the adjective:

Long \rightarrow Very long (The game was very long) Well \rightarrow Very well (Max Meyer played very well)
