⚡ The 'Want' Pattern

In this story, we see a very important word for A2 students: Want.

It describes a wish or a plan. Look at these examples from the text:

  • He wants to grow this company.
  • He wants to work with Sky.

The Secret Rule: When we talk about one person (He, She, Dana, Eddie), we add an -s to the word: want →\rightarrow wants.

🚩 Who is doing what? (Ownership)

To reach A2, you must describe who owns what. The article uses simple verbs to show power:

  1. Owns →\rightarrow Dana White owns a company.
  2. Work with →\rightarrow Eddie Hearn works with Anthony Joshua.

Quick Tip: Use owns for things (cars, companies, houses) and works with for people (bosses, partners, friends).
