👤 Talking about People

When we describe someone's age, we have two easy ways to do it. Look at these patterns from the text:

Way A: Using 'is'

  • Joshua Bailey is 20 years old.
  • Handley is 25.

Way B: Using a hyphen (-)

  • Oliver Dyson is a 26-year-old midfielder.

💡 The Secret Rule: When we use the second way (with hyphens), we do not put an 's' on 'year'.

Wrong: a 26-years-old man ✅ Right: a 26-year-old man
