🗝️ The 'Past Action' Pattern

To reach A2, you must describe things that already happened. Look at how the story changes words to show the past:

  • Regular Change (+ed):

    • Arrest →\rightarrow Arrested
    • Happen →\rightarrow Happened

  • The 'Special' Changes (Irregular):

    • Shoot →\rightarrow Shot
    • Go →\rightarrow Went
    • Have →\rightarrow Had

💡 Quick Logic: If you see -ed or a special word (like went), the action is finished.

Example from text:

  • "She worked at Google" →\rightarrow (She does not work there now).
  • "He went to the hospital" →\rightarrow (He is there now, but the travel is finished).
