🕒 The "Past Time" Secret
Look at how the story tells us things that already happened. Most of the words just add -ed to the end. This is the easiest way to talk about yesterday.
- Grab → Grabbed
- Squeeze → Squeezed*
- Stop → Stopped*
- Call → Called*
- Arrest → Arrested
(Note: Some words double their letters, like stop stopped)
🛠️ The "Change-Up" Words
Some words are rebels. They don't use -ed. You just have to memorize them as a new shape:
See Saw Go Went (though the text uses "go home" in a different way, usually we say "He went home") Is Was (The text says "is in jail" for now, but "The fight happened" for before)
💡 Quick Tip for A2
If you want to tell a story about your weekend, use the -ed pattern for 90% of your actions. It makes you sound clear and correct immediately.
