💡 The 'Want To' Pattern

In the text, we see: "India and Slovakia want to trade more."

When you have a desire or a plan, use this simple bridge: Person/Group \rightarrow want to \rightarrow Action

Examples from the story:

  • They \rightarrow want to \rightarrow sell cars.
  • They \rightarrow want to \rightarrow use technology.

Try these simple changes:

  • I want to learn English.
  • We want to visit India.

🛠️ Word Building: 'Together'

Notice how the word together is used to show partnership. It always comes after the action:

  1. Use technology \rightarrow together
  2. Make weapons \rightarrow together
  3. Work \rightarrow together

Tip: Use this word whenever two people or countries do the same thing at the same time.
