Learning
💡 The Power of 'Less'
In this story, we see a pattern for talking about reducing things. When we want a smaller amount of something, we use less or fewer.
1. Use 'LESS' for things you cannot count (like liquids or money):
- Less oil
- Less gold
- Less money
2. Use 'FEWER' for things you can count (like cars or people):
- Fewer cars
- Fewer leaders
🛠️ Sentence Builder: "Want to" + Action
To talk about a goal or a wish, we use: Subject + want to + verb.
- India wants to save money.
- The government wants to save resources.
Quick Rule: If the person is just one (He/She/India/Government), add an 's' → wants to. If it is many people (They/Workers), no 's' → want to.
🌍 Location Words
