Vocabulary Learning

🚨 The 'Can't' Pattern

Look at these two sentences from the text:

  • He cannot play.
  • He cannot play.

In English, we use cannot (or can't) when someone is unable to do something.

How to use it: Person → cannot → Action

Examples from the news:

  • Michael Helman → cannot → play (because of a broken hand).
  • Vinnie Pasquantino → cannot → play (because of a broken bone).

Try it with other words:

  • I cannot sleep.
  • She cannot come to the game.
  • They cannot win.

🔄 'Join' vs 'Play'

Notice the difference in the story:

  1. Joins the team: This is for new people coming in. (Example: Alejandro Osuna joins the team.)
  2. Plays for: This is for people who are already on the team. (Example: Spencer Arrighetti plays for the Astros.)
