Etymology
"đã" is a native Vietnamese auxiliary word marking completed action, while "tham gia" comes from Sino-Vietnamese: "tham" (to enter) and "gia" (to join a group).
Memory Aid
Break the phrase into two parts: "đã" signals past action, "tham gia" means to enter into an activity, so together it simply means joined in the past.
