⚡️ The 'Right Now' vs. 'Maybe Later'

Look at how the text talks about time. This is the secret to moving from A1 to A2.

1. Things happening RIGHT NOW We use simple words to show the current state:

  • Is (He is a player)
  • Are (They are thinking)
  • Needs (The team needs a player)

2. Things that MIGHT happen When we aren't 100% sure, we use these 'magic' words:

  • Might \rightarrow He might come back later.
  • Can/Cannot \rightarrow He cannot play in 2026.

Quick Guide: The 'Change' Flow Current Fact\text{Current Fact} \rightarrow Possible Change\text{Possible Change}

  • He is hurt \rightarrow He cannot play.
  • He is free \rightarrow He might join a team.

💡 Tutor Tip: To sound more like an A2 speaker, stop saying everything is a fact. Use 'might' when you are guessing about the future!
