Tips to remember the verb "passar":
• Think of “passar” as similar to the English "to pass"—it can mean to move past something, to happen, or to elapse in time. When you hear “isso passou,” imagine an event that has simply come and gone.
• Remember that many events “pass” and “passar” is used both for physical movement (e.g., a car passing by) and for abstract events (e.g., tough times that have passed).

Explanations:
• In the sentence “isso passou,” the verb “passar” is used in the simple past (pretérito perfeito) form “passou,” meaning that something is already over.
• The same verb can be used in several contexts: to describe a physical movement (“O carro passou rápido”—“The car passed by quickly”) or to indicate that an experience or moment has ended (“O medo passou”—“The fear passed”).

Other words that mean the same thing in this context:
• Acontecer – often used for events (“O que aconteceu?” = “What happened?”)
• Ocorrer – similarly means “to occur” (“Tudo ocorreu como planejado” = “Everything occurred as planned”)
• Suceder – another synonym, often used in narrative or formal contexts (“Muitas coisas sucederam” = “Many things happened”)
