πŸ•’ The 'Past' Pattern

Look at these words from the story:

  • Fell
  • Stopped
  • Helped
  • Took
  • Won

What is happening? These words tell us about things that are already finished. In English, we change the word to show the time.

Simple Rules:

  1. Most words just add -ed (Help β†’ Helped).
  2. Some words are 'rebels' and change completely (Win β†’ Won, Fall β†’ Fell).

A2 Quick Tip: If you see a date like "Wednesday" or a word like "Then," you usually need these past-tense words.

Example: Today: I help. β†’ Yesterday: I helped.
