💡 The 'Money' Pattern
Look at how the text talks about money. It doesn't use big words; it uses simple directions.
Going Down (Less/Lower)
- Make less money → Earning a smaller amount.
- Lowering prices → Making things cheaper.
- Fewer sales → Not many people are buying.
Going Up (More/Cost)
- Cost more money → Prices are increasing.
- Make more money → Earning a larger amount.
Quick Tip for A2: Instead of saying "The price decreased," just say "The price is lower." It is natural and easier to understand.
