🕒 THE 'THEN' WORDS

Look at how the story tells us about the past. To talk about things that already happened, we often add -ed to the end of the word.

  • Live \rightarrow Lived
  • Move \rightarrow Moved

⚠️ THE IRREGULARS

Some words are 'rebels'. They don't use -ed. They change completely. You just have to memorize these:

NowThen
SaySaid
FindFound

📍 WHERE & WHEN

In English, we usually put the Place first, then the Time.

Example: "...moved to Ireland (Place) in 2021 (Time)."

Try to remember this order: WHO \rightarrow ACTION \rightarrow WHERE \rightarrow WHEN
