Vocabulary Learning
🛠️ The "Possession" Pattern
In this text, we see how to describe things someone has (like a problem or a team).
1. Having a Problem When a player is not healthy, we use: Person + has + [body part] + problem.
- Shohei Ohtani has a knee problem.
- Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has a back problem.
2. Belonging to a Team To say who a person works for, we use: Person + plays for + [Team Name].
- Ian Seymour plays for the Tampa Bay Rays.
- Jacob Latz plays for the Texas Rangers.
💡 Simple Rule: Use "has" for things you carry or feel (problems/illness). Use "plays for" to show your group or company.
