⚡ The 'Past' Trick

To talk about things that already happened, we often add -ed to the end of the word. Look at these examples from the story:

  • Stop \rightarrow Stopped*
  • Happen \rightarrow Happened*
  • Watch \rightarrow Watched*

Watch out! Some words are 'rebels' and change completely. They don't follow the -ed rule:

  • Win \rightarrow Won*
  • Go \rightarrow Went*
  • Say \rightarrow Said*

💡 Quick Tip: Use these 'Past' words when you are telling a story about yesterday or last week.
