Vocabulary Learning
🕒 The "Past Story" Pattern
When we talk about things that already happened, we change the action word (verb). Look at how the story changes words from the present to the past:
- Play Played
- Feel Felt
- Do Did
Why this matters for A2: To tell a simple story, you cannot use "now" words. You need these "then" words.
Quick Guide:
- Most words just need a -ed at the end (Play Played).
- Some words are "rebels" and change completely (Feel Felt).
Example from text: "She scored nine points." It happened in the past, so we use scored, not score.
