⚡️ The 'Past' Power-Up

To tell a story in English, we change the ending of the action word. Look at these changes from the text:

  • Tell \rightarrow Told
  • Say \rightarrow Said
  • Speak \rightarrow Spoke
  • Write \rightarrow Wrote

Why this matters: These are 'Special Words' (Irregular). They don't follow the normal rule of adding '-ed'. If you want to talk about yesterday or last year, you must use these specific forms.
