💡 The 'Who did it' Pattern
In this story, we see people doing things in the past. To move to A2, you need to know how to say who did what.
The Simple Past Pattern:
- The police arrested the teacher.
- The child went into a pool.
- People tried to help.
How to build this:
Most words just need an -ed at the end to show it already happened:
Help → Helped
Check → Checked
Arrest → Arrested
⚠️ The Tricky Ones (Irregular): Some words change completely. You must memorize these:
Go→Went(The boy went into the pool)Die→Died(This one is regular!)
