CONNECT 6 Unit 5 “Amazing journeys” lesson 2

Language focus: Past simple طيضثنا ٗضاًنا

*We use the past simple to talk about finished actions, or situations, in the past.
ىظامنا ىف تهتنا ثاذحا نع ز يثعتهن طيسثنا ىظامنا وذختسن

I visited Alexandria last summer.

*We usually include a time phrase (yesterday, last week, three years ago) with the
past simple, but not always. امئاد سيل نكلو طيسبلا ىضاملا ىف نمزلا ىلع لدت ةرابع عضن ةداع

*Some common verbs are irregular in the past simple, for example be, go, find,

have, and make: حمظتنم زيغ حعئاشنا لاعفلاا طعت

*e.g. (be) Almost 100 years ago there was a very surprising discovery.

(go) Archaeologists went to the area to find out more.

(have) They had large eyes and complicated hair styles.

*The form of past simple verbs is the same with all subjects, apart from "be"
which

has two forms:
I/he/she/It was you/we/they were
