⚡ The 'Action' Pattern

Look at how we tell a story about the past. We take a simple word and add -ed. This tells us the action is finished.

The Rule: Word + ed →\rightarrow Past Action

Examples from the text:

  • jump →\rightarrow jumped
  • chase →\rightarrow chased
  • arrest →\rightarrow arrested
  • check →\rightarrow checked

⚠️ The 'Rebel' Words

Some words do not follow the -ed rule. You must memorize these because they change their shape completely.

The Changes:

  • Catch →\rightarrow Caught
  • Take →\rightarrow Took
  • Run →\rightarrow Ran
  • Tell →\rightarrow Told

Quick Tip: If you don't see -ed, check if it is a 'Rebel' word!
