🕒 The 'Past' Trick

In this story, we see words that tell us things already happened. To move to A2, you need to see how verbs change.

The Normal Pattern Most words just add -ed at the end:

  • Finish \rightarrow Finished
  • Look \rightarrow Looked
  • Ask \rightarrow Asked
  • Thank \rightarrow Thanked

The 'Rule Breakers' Some words change completely. You must memorize these:

  • Is/Am \rightarrow Was
  • Are \rightarrow Were
  • Find \rightarrow Found
  • Do \rightarrow Did
  • Give \rightarrow Gave

💡 Quick Tip: If you see -ed, the action is over. If you see was, it describes a person or a place in the past.
