⚡ The 'Past Action' Pattern
Look at these words from the story:
- Won
- Played
- Scored
- Spoke
- Said
What is happening here? These words tell us about things that already happened. In English, when we talk about yesterday or a finished game, the word changes.
Simple Switch →
- Win → Won
- Play → Played
- Score → Scored
- Speak → Spoke
- Say → Said
💡 Quick Tip: The 'ed' Ending
Notice that Played and Scored both end in -ed. Many words in English follow this easy rule to show the past.
Example:
Pakistan played next.
But be careful! Some words are rebels (like Won and Said) and change completely. You just need to remember them!
