⚡ The 'Want' Pattern
In this text, we see a very useful way to talk about goals: Person + wants + person + to [action]

How to use it: Use this when you have a wish for someone else.
Simple Examples:

📉 Word Contrast: Happy vs. Unhappy
Look at how English creates the opposite meaning by adding 'un-' to the start of a word:
Happy (😊) Unhappy (☹️)
If you see un- at the start of a describing word, it usually means "not."
