In this lesson, we'll introduce you to one of the common constructions of the English language using the verb "to be": the construction "want to be." We'll look at various examples of this construction, practice its various pronunciation methods, and explore its subtleties and nuances. Among other things, we'll stroll along Piers 35 and 36 in Lower Manhattan, admire the East River and the views of the Manhattan Bridge from this location. Enjoy watching, and good luck with your English learning.
