Learning
π¨ The "NOT" Rule
To move to A2, you must know how to say something is not happening. Look at how we change a sentence from 'Yes' to 'No':
- Winning not winning
- Score points do not score points
Quick Guide:
- Use not after the verb "are" (Example: The teams are not winning).
- Use do not for actions like scoring or playing (Example: They do not score points).
π Time Travel: The Future
When we talk about May or the future, we use one simple word: WILL.
- Now: They are bad.
- Future: They will be better.
Pattern:
Subject + will + be/get + better Some teams will get better.
