Talking about the past (yesterday, earlier, last week)
A beginner‑friendly approach to past tense: start with one safe past pattern and reuse it.
The strategy
Don’t try to master every tense. Start with one common past pattern from real sentences.
- Use time words (yesterday/last week) to make meaning clear.
- Copy a native past pattern and reuse it with different verbs.
