Vocabulary Learning
⏳ The 'Past' Trick
To reach A2, you need to tell stories about things that already happened. In this text, we see a simple pattern: Adding -ed to the action.
Look at these changes:
- Hurt (Stayed the same) He hurt them.
- Happen Happened Things happened a long time ago.
- Stop Stopped He stopped his shows.
💡 Quick Rule: When you talk about the past, most words just need -ed.
Example from the text: "Police took Patrick Bruel..." (Wait! 'Took' is a rebel word. It doesn't use -ed. It changes completely from 'Take' 'Took'.)
Vocabulary for your pocket:
- Custody Being kept by the police.
