⚡ The Power of 'Want' and 'Need'

In this text, we see how people express what they desire. For a beginner, these two words are the keys to talking about goals.

2. NEED (A necessity/requirement)

  • Better \rightarrow (Coach is looking for better players)

A2 Tip: When you want to compare two things or show a change, add -er to the end of short words.
