Learning

⚡ THE "PAST" SWITCH

Look at how the words change when we talk about things that already happened. We just add -ed to the end of the action word.

  • Add (Now) →\rightarrow Added (Past)
  • Play (Now) →\rightarrow Played (Past)

Why this matters for A2: If you want to tell a story about your day or your job, you need this simple change.

Example from the text: "He played for other teams before."

🧩 BUILDING BLOCKS: "To Make"

In English, we use "make" when we change something into a different state.

extAction→extResult ext{Action} \rightarrow ext{Result}

  • Make the team better (Improve it)
  • Make the team stronger (Increase power)

Quick Tip: Use Make + [Thing] + [Adjective] to describe a goal.
