💡 The 'Who does what' Pattern

In this story, we see a simple way to describe people and their actions. To reach A2, you need to connect a person to a fact.

Look at these examples:

  • Tyler Robinson \rightarrow is in court.
  • A friend \rightarrow said Robinson did the crime.
  • The judge \rightarrow must decide.

Why this matters: Notice that we use a name or a label first, then a small action word.
