Vocabulary Learning

🕒 Talking About the Past

In this story, we see two ways to talk about things that already happened.

1. The "-ed" ending Most words just add -ed to show the past:

  • Play → Played
  • Live → Lived
  • Score → Scored

2. The "Did Not" helper When something didn't happen, we don't change the main action word. We use did not (or didn't) instead:

  • Right: They did not defend the ball.
  • Wrong: They did not defended.

Quick Pattern: Positive (+) \rightarrow Action + ed Negative (-) \rightarrow did not + Action
