💡 The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how we describe what people do in this story. To reach A2, you need to move from simple words to past actions.

The Shift:

  • Present (Now) \rightarrow Past (Finished)
  • Find \rightarrow Found
  • Steal \rightarrow Stole
  • Lie \rightarrow Lied
  • Put \rightarrow Put (Stayed the same!)

How to use it: When telling a story about a movie or book, use these 'Finished' words.

Example: "Hayden stole the baby." (Not: Hayden steal the baby).


🧩 Word Building: People

Notice how we name people by their job or role to make the story clear:

  • A journalist (The person who writes news)
  • A police officer (The person who catches bad people)
  • A free man (Someone not in prison)

Tip: Use "A [Job]" when introducing a new person in your speaking.
