Vocabulary Learning
🕒 Talking about the Past
Look at these words from the story: died, happened, talked, decided.
In English, when something is finished, we often just add -ed to the end of the action word. This is the easiest way to tell a story about yesterday or last year.
The Pattern: Action Past Action
- Talk Talked
- Decide Decided
- Happen Happened
⚠️ The 'Rule Breakers'
Some words are 'rebels.' They don't use -ed. You just have to memorize them.
- Go Went (The man went to the hospital)
- Make Made (One person made a model)
Quick Tip: If you see a word like went or made, it means the action is already over. You are looking at a memory, not something happening right now.
