💡 The Power of 'Want'
In the story, we see a very useful word for A2 learners: Want.
It tells us about a person's goals or desires. Look at these two different ways the article uses it:
-
Want + to do something (An action)
- "The US and Iran want to make a deal."
- "He wanted Usha to become Catholic."
-
Want + a thing (An object)
- "I want a coffee." (Example)
🛠️ Quick Swap: Now vs. Then
Notice how the word changes when we talk about the past:
- Now: Want "The US and Iran want..."
- Past: Wanted "He wanted Usha..."
Pro Tip: When you see -ed at the end of 'want', the event is already finished. Yesterday/Last Year/Before.
