💡 The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how we describe people doing things in this story. We use a simple formula: [Person] →\rightarrow [Action] →\rightarrow [Object]

  • The Giants →\rightarrow lost →\rightarrow the game.
  • Ten couples →\rightarrow said →\rightarrow they love each other.
  • Three pitchers →\rightarrow wrote →\rightarrow Bible verses.

⚠️ Be Careful with Time (Past Tense) Since this happened in the past, the words change their endings:

  • Write →\rightarrow Wrote
  • Say →\rightarrow Said
  • Lose →\rightarrow Lost

Quick Tip for A2: To make a sentence negative (to say someone did not do something), just add did not before the action word. The action word goes back to its normal form:

  • Sam Hentges →\rightarrow did not wear →\rightarrow the hat. (Not 'did not wore')
