🕒 The "Past Habit" Pattern

Look at how we talk about things that already happened in the text:

  • He played for NBA teams.
  • He scored 10 points.
  • He signed a contract.

The Simple Rule: To talk about a finished action, we often add -ed to the end of the action word.

Now → He plays (Present) Before → He played (Past)

Watch out! Some words are rebels and don't follow the -ed rule. Example from the text: Left (You don't say "leaved" → you say left).
