Vocabulary Learning
🕒 Talking about the Past
In this story, most things already happened. To do this in English, we usually add -ed to the end of the action word.
How it works:
- Show → Showed*
- Stop → Stopped*
- Escap → Escaped*
The 'Rule Breakers' (Irregular Words): Some words change completely. You must memorize these:
- Say → Said
- Die → Died (Wait, this one follows the rule!)
- Go → Went
- Find → Found
Quick Guide for A2:
- Present: I help the police.
- Past: I helped the police.
Negative Past (The 'Did Not' Trick): When we say something didn't happen, we use did not + the normal word. We do NOT add -ed here.
❌ He did not said (Wrong) ✅ He did not say (Correct) → The 'did' already tells us it is the past!
