⚡ The 'They want' Pattern
In the text, we see this: "They want big changes." "They want to stop the police."
When you describe what people desire or need, use: They + want + [thing/action]
Simple Examples:
- They want coffee → (A thing)
- They want to sleep → (An action)
Why this helps you reach A2: Instead of using complex words for 'desire' or 'hope,' stick to want. It works for almost every basic situation.
Quick Look: The 'Too' Modifier Look at: "too different"
When something is 'more than okay' or 'more than normal,' add too before the describing word:
- Too hot 🥵
- Too expensive 💸
- Too different ↔️
