Vocabulary Learning

🕒 The "Already Happened" Pattern

When we talk about things that finished in the past, we often add -ed to the action word. This is the easiest way to tell a story.

Look at these changes:

  • Arrest \rightarrow Arrested
  • Stop \rightarrow Stopped
  • Look \rightarrow Looked

The Exception Rule Some words are "rebels." They don't use -ed. You just have to memorize them:

  • Find \rightarrow Found
  • Go \rightarrow Went

Quick Tip for A2: If you see -ed, the event is over. If you see is, it is happening now.

Example: The man is in jail (Now) \leftrightarrow The police arrested him (Past).
