⚡ The 'Want' Pattern

In this text, we see a very common way to express a need or a wish: Want + Person/Thing.

How it works:

  • The team \rightarrow want \rightarrow new players.
  • He \rightarrow wants \rightarrow to play there.

🚨 The S-Rule (Important for A2): Notice the difference between the group and the one person:

  • The teams (many) \rightarrow want
  • He (one person) \rightarrow wants

To describe someone's character or skill, we use: [Person] + is + [Word].

  • Experienced \rightarrow Has a lot of practice.
  • Mean \rightarrow Not kind.
  • Old \rightarrow Not young.

Example from text: "Hopkins is 34 years old." "Aiyuk was mean."

Use 'But' when the second part of the sentence changes the feeling of the first part (Positive \rightarrow Negative).
