💡 The Power of "Some" vs "Other"
When we talk about different groups of people, we use a simple pattern to show contrast:
Some people (Group A) Other people (Group B)
Look at the text:
- Some want books Other want money.
- Some want to fix schools Other want to save money.
Why this helps you reach A2: Instead of saying "and" or "but" over and over, you can use this to describe two different opinions clearly.
Quick Guide:
- Start with Some people + [verb].
- Follow with Other people + [verb].
Example: Some people like coffee. Other people like tea.
