Here is the video to a song. Have you heard it before? It was popular when I was in high school. Listen to it and think about the lyrics. What does it say? Is it for a specific person?
Can you think what kind of person you imagine is signing the song? Which words do you think are appropriate and why:
outgoing, shy, dishonest
Can you think of any more?
What kind of words are we trying to find? Nouns , verbs, adjectives,
Think about the person in the song, how many more adjectives can you think of ?
The chorus to the songs repeats the following sentence:
" Words don't come easy to me?"
Do you agree or disagree?
Words equal vocabulary and they are the building blocks of our sentences. The way we use them is governed by grammar rules which cements them together.
So how can we get a nice tall strong wall (sentences /text) in in good interesting English).
The post box was in the wall.
The red post box was embeded into the stone wall.
