💰 The 'Money' Pattern
In this story, we see a very common way to describe why something happens. Look at these sentences:
- "...they did it for money."
- "...attackers want money from him."
How to use this at A2 level: When you want to explain a goal or a reason, use FOR + [the thing you want].
Examples:
- I study English for a job.
- He goes to the gym for health.
- She works for money.
📍 Who owns what?
Notice how the text describes people and their things:
- "Rattan owns hotels."
- "Arvinder is the leader of Cricket Canada."
To reach A2, stop saying "He has a hotel" and start using owns for businesses or buildings. It makes your English sound more natural.
Quick Tip:
- Person owns Business/House/Car.
