Vocabulary Learning
⚡ Quick Pattern: 'Must' vs 'Want'
In this text, we see two different ways to talk about needs and desires. This is a big step for A2 learners.
1. The Order (Must) When something is a rule or a requirement, use must.
- Israel must leave Lebanon.
- Hezbollah must give away weapons.
- Pattern: Person → must → Action
2. The Wish (Want) When someone has a desire, use want to.
- They want to keep their weapons.
- He wants to create safe zones.

💡 Vocabulary Shift Instead of saying "left their homes," you can say "moved away."
- One million people left their homes → One million people moved away.
⚠️ Note on 'Since'
- ...died since March 2.
- Use since when you talk about a specific starting point in the past until now.
