⚡ THE 'COMING BACK' PATTERN
In this story, we see a very useful way to talk about returning to a job or a game: Coming back.
How it works:
When someone was away (because they were sick or hurt) and now they are here again, we use:
be + coming back
Examples from the text:
- "Other players are coming back to play."
- "AJ Smith-Shawver is also coming back."
Simple Swap → Practice it in your head:
- I am sick → I am coming back tomorrow.
- She is on vacation → She is coming back Monday.
🦴 TALKING ABOUT HURT BODY PARTS
To describe a problem with the body, use this simple formula:
Person + has + a + body part + injury
Look at these patterns:
- Anthony Bender → has a leg injury.
- Mitchell Parker → has an arm injury.
Quick Tip: Use 'a' for consonants (leg, foot) and 'an' for vowels (arm, eye).
