Hi, I need your help.
I don't hear "beginning to want to", "starting to want to", and "come to want to", but are these expressions used in everyday conversation?
1. I've come to want to read the book.
2. I'm beginning to want to eat ice cream.
3. I'm starting to want to eat ice cream.
Are three expressions written above correct in daily conversation?
There is a good expression that applies to any case in my mother tongue, but is there such an expression in English? Or do you always choose an expression such as "have an urge to", and "have a craving for" among lots of expressions?
