🟢 The "Want" Pattern
In this text, we see a very common way to talk about goals.
The Rule:
Person/Group + want + description
Examples from the text:
- The Miami Dolphins want better defense.
- The New York Jets want bigger players.
Why this helps you reach A2: Instead of using complex sentences, you can use "want" to describe a need or a dream.
📦 Small Words, Big Meaning
Look at these words used to describe the players:
- New (Fresh/Just arrived) "New players"
- Old (Experienced/Long time) "Older players"
- Better (Higher quality) "Better defense"
Tip: To move from A1 to A2, start using these "comparing" words (like better or bigger) to give more detail to your nouns.
