⚡ Quick Pattern: Saying Someone is 'Out'
In the text, we see different ways to say a player cannot play. For A2, you can use these simple patterns:
1. The 'Pain' Pattern
[Person]+has+[Body Part]+pain- Example: Tyler Glasnow → has back pain.
2. The 'Unable' Pattern
[Person]+cannot+[Action]- Example: He → cannot play.
3. The 'Status' Pattern
