💡 The 'Age' Pattern

Look at how we describe people's ages in the text. There are two ways to do this:

1. The Simple Fact (Sentence)

  • She was 14 years old.
  • He is now in jail.

2. The Description (Label)

  • A 14-year-old boy.
  • A 31-year-old man.

⚠️ Important Note: When we use the age as a label (like "a 14-year-old boy"), we use dashes (—) and we do not add an 's' to the word year.

Comparison:

  • He is 14 years old. \rightarrow (Action/State)
  • He is a 14-year-old boy. \rightarrow (Description)

Vocabulary from the text:

  • Arrested \rightarrow Police take a person to the station.
  • Suspect \rightarrow A person the police think did something wrong.
