The 'Past' Action Trick

In this story, almost everything already happened. To talk about the past in English, we often just add -ed to the end of the action word.

Look at these changes:

  • Like →\rightarrow Liked
  • Shout →\rightarrow Shouted
  • Laugh →\rightarrow Laughed
  • Talk →\rightarrow Talked
  • Want →\rightarrow Wanted

Wait! Some words are 'Rebels' Some words do not follow the -ed rule. They change completely. These are very important for A2 level:

  • Come →\rightarrow Came
  • Wear →\rightarrow Wore
  • Use →\rightarrow Used (Follows the rule!)
  • Is/Am/Are →\rightarrow Was/Were

Quick Guide: If you see -ed, the person is talking about yesterday or a long time ago.
