🔢 Describing People (Age)
In English, we can describe someone's age in two different ways. See the patterns from the text:
-
The Age Group "A man in his 20s" (This means he is between 20 and 29 years old).
-
The Specific Age "A 44-year-old man" (Notice there are dashes
-between the words. This turns the age into one big adjective to describe the man).
🔍 Action Words (Past)
Most of the actions here happened in the past. We add -ed to the end of the word to show it is finished:
- Arrest Arrested
- Jump Jumped
Wait! Some words are "rule-breakers" (Irregular). You must memorize these:
- Die Died (regular)
- Go Went (irregular)
- Know Knew (irregular)
