Pattern: “I am here” (location + ‘to be’)

A tiny sentence that unlocks location + introductions.

The pattern

Memorize this as a chunk. Then swap one word at a time.

Say it with different places: here / there / at home / at work.
If your language drops ‘to be’ in the present, learn the natural pattern (don’t force English grammar).
