When we tell a story about things that happened one after another, we use these small words to guide the listener:

  • First \rightarrow The start of the action. (First, a big truck hit a woman.)
  • Then \rightarrow The next thing that happened. (Then, a car hit the woman.)

📍 Being Specific with Places

Notice how the text moves from a big area to a small area. This is how we give clear information in English:
