Vocabulary Learning
💡 The 'Want' Pattern
In this text, we see a very useful word for A2 students: Want.
It shows what someone needs or desires. Look at how it changes based on who is talking:
- The government wants → (Single group/He/She)
- They want → (Many people/They)
How to build your own sentences:
Person + Want/Wants + To + Action
- Example from text: "The government wants to stop bad content."
- Example from text: "They want to show a good image."
Quick Rule: If the person is just one (The government), add an -s → wants. If there are many (They), keep it simple → want.
