🏁 The 'Will' Power

When we talk about things that happen later (the future), we use will. It is like a bridge from now to then.

From the story:

  • "The cars will drive on a short track"
  • "250,000 people will watch the race"

How to build it: Person →\rightarrow will →\rightarrow action word

  • I will go.
  • You will see.
  • We will win.

🛠️ Fixing the Action

Look at how the story changes a simple action into something that already happened. We often just add -ed to the end of the word.

The Change:

  • Talk →\rightarrow Talked
  • Help →\rightarrow Helped

Example: "The President helped to fix the problems."

Now it is in the past!
