First, let's talk about months and dates in English. In English, we typically format dates as the day followed by the month and then the year. For example, July 9th, 2023 would be written as 9th July 2023. This can sometimes differ from other languages, so it's important to keep this in mind.
To tell the time, we often use prepositions such as "at", "in", and "on" to specify when something is happening. For example, "I have a meeting at 3 pm", "I am going on vacation in January".
Next, let's touch on demonstrative pronouns. These are words like "this" and "that", “these” and “those” which help us to distinguish between things that are close to us and things that are further away. For example, "this book" is close to me, while "that book" is further away.
When describing people, it's important to understand the correct adjective order to use. This order is an opinion, size, age, shape, color, origin, and material. For example, "This beautiful big old circular pink Russian leather tote bag" follows the correct adjective order.
Lastly, let's talk about ordinal numbers from 1st to 100th. These are numbers that indicate sequence, such as first, second, third, and so on. It's important to note that the suffix "th" is added to the numeral for ordinal forms. For example, "5th" is fifth.
That's it for today. I hope you found this podcast helpful. Thanks for listening!
