Vocabulary Learning
⏳ The "Way Back" Words
In this story, we see words that tell us things happened in the past. To reach A2, you need to recognize these patterns quickly.
1. The "-ed" Pattern (Action Finished)
- helped did it before
- started happened in 1986
2. The "Change" Words (Irregular) Some words don't use "-ed". They change their whole shape:
- die died (This one is regular, but look at the others!)
- is was (e.g., "He was the boss")
- fly flew (e.g., "They flew the plane")
- fall fell (e.g., "The plane fell")
Quick Rule for A2: If you see WAS, FLEW, or FELL, the story is talking about a memory or a finished event, not right now.
