💡 The 'Past' Secret

Look at these words from the story:

  • died (from die)
  • was (from be)
  • posted (from post)
  • locked (from lock)

The Pattern: To talk about something that happened yesterday or a long time ago, we often just add -ed to the end of the action word.

  • Post \rightarrow Posted
  • Lock \rightarrow Locked

Wait! Some words are 'rebels' and change completely. They don't follow the -ed rule:

  • Is/Am \rightarrow Was
  • Die \rightarrow Died (This one looks like the rule, but the 'e' is already there!)

Quick Tip for A2: If you see -ed, the story is about the past. If you see was, the person is no longer in that state or place.
