⏱️ The "Story Time" Tense

When we talk about things that already happened, we change the action word. Look at these changes from the story:

  • HearHeard (A neighbor heard a scream)
  • GoWent (The police went to the house)
  • SeeSaw (They saw a big dog)
  • TellTold (The police told the owner)
  • RunRan (The dog ran toward the officer)

💡 Pro Tip: Most words just add -ed (like killed or started), but the words above are "rule-breakers." You must memorize them to tell a story in English!
