🛠️ Building 'Action' Sentences
In the story, we see how to describe a bad event using a simple pattern: Who Did what To whom.
Example from text: "A man attacked another man" (Who: A man Action: attacked Whom: another man)
Why this helps you get to A2: Beginners often mix up the order of words. To speak clearly, keep the action right after the person.
Compare these simple patterns:
- Police arrested a man.
- People burned a bus.
- Police used cars.
Quick Tip: When talking about the past, add -ed to the end of the action word (attack attacked). This is the easiest way to tell a story in English.
