Vocabulary Learning
🕰️ The "Past Action" Pattern
Look at these words from the text:
- cancelled
- stole
- died
The Rule: To talk about things that already happened, we often add -ed to the end of the word.
Examples: Cancel → Cancelled Want → Wanted
⚠️ The Tricky Part: Some words are "rebels." They change completely. You just have to memorize them:
- Steal → Stole
- Die → Died (follows the -ed rule)
