Vocabulary Learning
🏁 The 'Past Action' Pattern
To tell a story about a race, we change the action word (verb) to show it already happened. Most words just get an -ed at the end.
Look at these changes:
- Race Raced
- Pass Passed
- Finish Finished
- Start Started
⚠️ Watch out for 'Rule Breakers'! Some words change completely. You must memorize these:
| Now | Past | Example from Text |
|---|---|---|
| Win | Won | Lachlan Turner won the race. |
| Fall | Fell | Some riders fell. |
| Get | Got | Cannon got third place. |
| Break | Broke | She broke a rule. |
Quick Tip: Use these "Past" words when you talk about yesterday, last week, or a race that is over.
