Vocabulary Learning
🕒 The 'Back Then' Pattern
In the text, we see a change from Now to Before. For A2 students, the most important thing is how the words change when we talk about the past.
The Word Shift:
- Say (Now) Said (Before)
- Think (Now) Thought (Before)
- Want (Now) Wanted (Before)
Spot the Difference:
- "Clinton says old plans... do not work now." (Current opinion)
- "He wanted to fight Iran." (Past desire)
Quick Rule: When you see a date (like 2009 to 2012), the verb usually needs an -ed ending or a special 'past' form. This allows you to tell a story instead of just listing facts.
