🕒 Talking About the Past

When we talk about things that already happened (like a tennis match), we often add -ed to the action word.

Look at these changes:

  • Play \rightarrow Played
  • Beat \rightarrow Won (Special change!)
  • Lose \rightarrow Lost (Special change!)

Why this matters for A2: To tell a story, you need to move from 'now' to 'then.'

Examples from the text:

  • "The weather was very hot." (Not 'is')
  • "Some players left the tournament." (Not 'leave')
  • "Zverev played Cobolli." (Not 'plays')

Quick Rule: If the action is finished \rightarrow use the Past form.
