Vocabulary Learning
💡 The "Past Action" Pattern
Look at these words from the story:
- Stop → Stopped
- Die → Died
- Use → Used
How it works: To talk about things that already happened, we usually add -ed to the end of the action word.
Examples from the text:
- "Police stopped two adults" (It happened in the past).
- "The officer used gas" (It happened in the past).
⚠️ The "Rule Breaker"
Some words do not follow the -ed rule. They change completely.
The Big Change:
- Say Said
In the story: "They say the police..." (Now) "The mother says..." (Now) "She told the police" (Past).
Note: 'Told' is the past of 'Tell'.
