Vocabulary Learning
The "Past Action" Pattern
Look at how the story tells us what happened. Most words end in -ed. This is how we talk about yesterday or last year.
The Pattern: Word + ed = Finished Action
Examples from the text:
- hurt → (special word, stays the same)
- try → tried
- stop → stopped
- escaped
- helped
Wait! Some words change completely: Some words are "rebels" and don't use -ed. You just have to memorize them:
- drive → drove
- do → did
- take → took
- give → gave
Quick Summary for A2: If you want to say something happened in the past, try adding -ed. If that sounds wrong, check if it is a "rebel" word like drove or gave.
