💡 The 'Action' Word Trick

In this story, we see a pattern: Someone + did something.

Look at these examples from the text:

  • Ohtani \rightarrow left the game.
  • A ball \rightarrow hit him.
  • The team \rightarrow stopped him.

How to use this: To talk about the past, we often add -ed to the end of the word. This tells us the action is finished.

  • Play \rightarrow Played
  • Stop \rightarrow Stopped
  • Want \rightarrow Wanted

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

  • Feel \rightarrow Felt
  • Get \rightarrow Got

Quick Tip: If you want to say something happened yesterday, check if the word is a 'regular' (-ed) or a 'rebel' word!
