⚡ The 'Action' Pattern

Look at these words from the story:

  • Talked (Pawan Khera talked to police)
  • Stopped (Police stopped a group)
  • Arrested (Police arrested people)
  • Destroyed (Buildings were destroyed)
  • Fought (People fought in the street)

The Secret: Most of these words end in -ed. This tells us the action is finished (it happened in the past).

Wait! Look at Fought. It doesn't have -ed. Some words are 'rebels' and change completely. Fight → Fought

Quick Guide for A2: Normal word + ed → Past $ (Example: Talk → Talked)

Special word \rightarrow New form (Example:Fight(Example: Fight\rightarrow$ Fought)
