⚡ Quick-Look: Past Actions

When we talk about things that already happened (like the news story), we often add -ed to the action word.

Examples from the text:

  • Talk \rightarrow Talked
  • Use \rightarrow Used
  • Pay \rightarrow Paid (This one is a rebel; it doesn't follow the -ed rule!)

📦 The 'Private' vs 'Normal' Contrast

Notice how the story uses these two words to show a difference:

  1. Normal = Regular, for everyone (e.g., normal seat).
  2. Private = Only for one person/group; paid for (e.g., private rental).

A2 Tip: Use these opposites to describe things in your daily life!
