Vocabulary Learning
📍 Talking about Age
In this story, we see a very important pattern for describing people's ages. We use a dash (-) to connect the number and the word 'year-old'.
The Pattern:
Number + -year-old + Person
Examples from the text:
- 14-year-old girl
- 16-year-old person
- 73-year-old woman
💡 Quick Rule
When we use the age as a description before the person, we do not add an 's' to 'year'.
❌ Wrong: 14-years-old girl ✅ Right: 14-year-old girl
Try this logic: My friend → 20-year-old man My sister → 10-year-old girl My grandpa → 80-year-old man
