🌍 Connecting People and Actions

Look at how the text describes people and what they want. This is a great way to move from A1 to A2.

The Pattern: [Who] + [Want/Say/Have] + [What]

  • The U.S. and Iran \rightarrow talk \rightarrow about peace.
  • Iran \rightarrow wants \rightarrow two things.
  • Leaders \rightarrow say \rightarrow they are strong.

💡 Simple Word Swap

To make your English sound more natural, use these basic 'action' words from the text:

  1. Want (to desire something) \rightarrow "They want their money back."
  2. Say (to speak a fact) \rightarrow "They say this is a problem."
  3. Help (to make something easier) \rightarrow "Qatar helps them."

⚠️ Small Tip: Notice that for one person or group (Iran), we add an -s to the action: Iran wants. For two groups (The U.S. and Iran), we use the word as it is: They talk.
