10/25 (Tue) Ambiguous words part II by Andre's Chang

文章 tashi »

On behalf of Andre's,

Hi All,

Continue from last sharing from Andre's about ambiguous words and we didn't finish the list. This time, get your questions ready
to challenge our native speaker and English teacher.


Session 1:

Borrowing vs lending.

‘Wait me a second.’

‘There have many people.’ vs ‘There are a lot of people there.’

‘He’ vs ‘she’.

‘Where do you come from?’ vs ‘Where are you from?’

‘Where is here?’ vs ‘Where are we?’

Session II.

Please spend few time check this video and think of questions below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4GoUA8nEQE

1. Where do your parents live?
2. Where do your grandparents live?
3. What is one memory from high school that you would like to share?
4. Would you like to be famous?
5. Do you take a lot of selfies?
6. Do you take care of your health?
7. Do you like to play games on your phone?
8. What is your favorite Taiwanese food?
9. Do you have a pet story you would like to share?

We can also extend the ambiguous part longer if it's still too many extended questions as it was last time^^

Many many thanks to Andre's, I learned a lot.

1. "Are you coming/ going to Japan with us?" is clear now. It's also answered here:https://answers.yahoo.com/question/inde ... 901AAo0HvV

2.The choice of "Where are you from?" and "Where do you come from?" is still kind of tricky to me. The first one is correct, of course. But in this TED talk, the man use the second for many times. Maybe it's also OK?

Anyone could extract the part
from this "seminar" since
I just returned back from a
satellite city then, :evil:
gratitude ! :ssmile:
The best teacher is child,
the worst mistake for one is to abandon oneself,
the greatest treasure in the world is love!
