Vocabulary Learning
🚩 The "Not" Rule
In this story, we see how to say "No" or "Stop" using the word not. This is the most important step for A2 beginners to describe things that are missing or forbidden.
How it works: Put not after the helping word (like is, do, or can).
From the text:
- Cannot work (Can + not) Impossible to work.
- Did not like (Did + not) Past time dislike.
🛠 Word Swap: Bad vs. Wrong
These words both describe things we don't like, but they are used differently here:
- Bad (for comments/actions): "She said bad things."
- Wrong (for ideas/beliefs): "Her ideas are wrong."
⏳ Time Markers
Look at how the text tells us when things happen:
- Now Right this second.
- Until July 3 From today up to that date.
- Back Returning to a place (The team).
