🏀 The "Past vs. Now" Switch

Look at how the story moves from yesterday to today. This is the secret to A2 storytelling.

1. Things that already happened (Past) We use these words to talk about the game that is finished:

  • Beat → won the game
  • Played → did the action
  • Had → owned or scored

2. Things happening now or later (Present/Future) We change the words when the game isn't over yet:

  • Are → current state (e.g., "They are sick")
  • Will play → future plan (e.g., "Will play Toronto")
  • Need → something wanted right now

Quick Guide: Past Event \rightarrow Added "-ed" (mostly) Future Event \rightarrow Use "will"

Key Words for your pocket: Poorly \rightarrow Not good Healthy \rightarrow Not sick
