🕒 The 'Past' Pattern

In this story, we see how to talk about things that already happened. Look at these words:

  • Started (2008/2009)
  • Worked (for many years)
  • Moved (to Paris)

The Simple Rule: To talk about the past, we often just add -ed to the end of the action word.

  • Start \rightarrow Started
  • Work \rightarrow Worked
  • Move \rightarrow Moved

🛑 Saying 'No' in the Past

When the writer wants to say something did not happen, they use a special helper word: did not.

"She did not want Owen to die."

Notice that after did not, the word want stays normal. We don't add -ed here because did already tells us it is the past.
