đŸ“Ļ The 'Something' Pattern

In this text, we see how to describe things when we don't know the exact name or want to be general. Look at these examples:

  • Star Wars things →\rightarrow (General objects)
  • New products →\rightarrow (Items for sale)
  • New sets →\rightarrow (Lego groups)

How to use it for A2: Instead of saying "I want to buy a thing," use [Adjective] + [General Word].

Cheap prices (Low cost) New game (Fresh product) New movie (Fresh film)


📉 Talking about Money

  1. Cheap prices →\rightarrow Low cost.
  2. Cheaper →\rightarrow Less money than before.

Quick Tip: When something was 20andnowitis20 and now it is 10, it is cheaper.
