🕒 Simple Past Struggles? You’re Not Alone! Something I notice a lot, even with intermediate English learners, is how tricky the simple past can be, especially in the negative form. In positive sentences, it’s intuitive: ✔ I knew about the meeting. ✔ We watched a movie. ✔ She called me yesterday. But in the negative… suddenly it changes! ❌ I didn’t knew about the meeting. ← Oops! ✔ I didn’t know about the meeting. ✅ ❌ I didn’t watched the movie. ← Oops! ✔ I didn’t watch the movie. ✅ ❌ She didn’t called me yesterday. ← Oops! ✔ She didn’t call me yesterday ✅ Even though the action is in the past, after “didn’t,” we go back to the base form of the verb (think of the infinitive form). 🕰️ didn’t know (to know) 🕰️ didn’t watch (to watch) 🕰️ didn’t call (to call) Today, this clicked for one of my students. It’s such a simple rule, but easy to miss! 💬 How about you? Have you ever mixed up past tense negatives? Drop an example below (correct or incorrect) and let's chat about it. 😄

Today, I went to Costco for the first time since I recently moved into my new place. Because of the move, there were so many things I needed to buy, so I was really looking forward to shopping there. As soon as I walked into the store, I felt overwhelmed by how huge it was and how many different products they had. It was exciting, but at the same time, I had to remind myself not to get carried away and buy unnecessary items.  One of the most important things I needed was a mattress for my bed. I had been sleeping on a temporary setup, so finally getting a proper mattress felt like a big step toward making my new home comfortable. After looking through the different sizes and types, I found one that seemed perfect. Besides the mattress, I also bought a lot of food since Costco is famous for selling groceries in bulk. It felt practical to stock up on essentials, especially since I want to save time on frequent shopping trips.  By the time I finished, my cart was completely full, and it felt like I had really taken another step toward settling into my new life.
