💡 The 'Action' Pattern
Look at how we describe things that happened in the past. We just add -ed to the end of the word.
- Stay Stayed*
- Want Wanted*
- Change Changed*
Why this matters for A2: When you tell a story about yesterday or last year, use this simple ending.
Example from text: "One officer stayed in the same job."
🛠️ Useful 'Must' Words
When a rule is very strong, we use MUST. You don't need to change the word after it.
- Must change (No choice)
- Must wear (No choice)
- Must sit (No choice)
Quick Tip: Use Must for laws, school rules, or boss's orders.
