🌍 Action Words: Now vs. Then
In this story, we see two ways to talk about actions. This is the key to moving from A1 to A2.
1. Things happening NOW (General Facts) We use simple words for things that are true today:
- Want "They want to help."
- Work "India and Europe work together."
2. Things that ALREADY happened (Past) Notice how the words change when the action is finished:
- Meet Met ("Leaders met in France.")
- Talk Talked ("They talked about problems.")
- Visit Visited ("Modi visited Slovakia.")
- End Ended ("The meeting ended.")
