Vocabulary Learning
💡 The Power of 'Not'
In the text, we see how to say someone is not something. This is a key way to describe people at an A2 level.
How it works:
Person + is not + Place/Category
From the story:
- O.J. Simpson is not on any list.
Try these simple patterns:
- I am not a player.
- He is not in the stadium.
- They are not on the wall.
🗝️ 'Few' vs 'Many'
These words tell us about the amount of things.
- Many = A lot (High number) "Many legal problems"
- Fewer = A smaller number than before "The new stadium has fewer names"
Quick Tip: Use fewer when you can count the things (like names, apples, or books).
