Let's Talk...
In English.
That's right. I'm Gabe.
And I'm Andrea.
Well, today we continue to talk about clothes.
But we're going to look at men's clothes.
Now men and women, of course, all wear clothes.
But there are some clothes that men usually only wear.
Can you think of what kind of clothing that could be?
Hmm, maybe a tie.
A tie is a piece of clothing that men wear.
They also might wear different kinds of pants that a lady might not wear.
You might want to make sure that your tie matches your shirt if you are a man.
You can wear a cool jacket, a fancy jacket or a sports jacket.
And you might even want to wear a pair of shorts.
Well friends, these are all key words in today's lesson.
And you will see them in your magazine, and hear them in our Read It and our
conversations.
So please open your magazines.
Are you ready?
Good. Let's go.
What kinds of clothes do men usually buy?
They buy pants and shirts.
Some men may wear a tie to work.
Many women buy ties for men.
So some men have a lot of ties!
Many men like their ties to match their shirts.
They may wear a jacket to work too.
On weekends, a man may wear jeans or shorts.
Those clothes are more casual.
Today we are talking about men's clothes.
So let's look at Gabe and his clothes.
Gabe, are you wearing pants?
Yes, Andrea, I'm wearing nice pants.
Good! That's important.
Do your pants match your shirt?
Well, I think so.
My shirt looks good with these pants.
Yeah, they do match.
Thank you.
Are you wearing a tie?
Uh, no, I'm not wearing a tie.
I like to wear ties to fancy parties.
But I'm not wearing a tie today. No.
Oh. And you might wear a jacket to a fancy party.
Yes.
Now would you wear a jacket and a tie with shorts?
Uh no, Andrea, that usually does not look very good.
Or I don't think it matches.
Hmm, I see.
Well, thank you for helping us use all of our key words, Gabe.
Well, hey.
Now let's look at them together.
The first one is "pants." Now pants are something that you wear on the bottom
part of your body.
You put your legs in your pants.
And men and women can wear pants.
That's right.
You can wear pants during the winter to keep your legs warm.
But in the summer, lots of people like to wear shorts.
That's our last key word here today.
But let's talk about that too.
You wear both pants and shorts on your legs.
Pants are longer, and shorts, well, are shorter.
That's right. And it's important for your pants or your shorts to match your
shirt or what you wear on top of your body.
Our key word is "match." Now when clothes match, that means they look good
together or they go together.
Make sure your clothes match if you want to look good.
Now as a man, you also want to make sure that your tie matches your shirt.
Now Gabe, can you help us with this key word, tie?
Yes. Many people like to wear ties.
They tie them around their necks, around their shirts.
And many shirts look very good when it goes with a tie.
Um, that's probably why it's called a tie because you tie it around your neck.
Ah, I like it.
Well, I like your tie and I like your shirt.
Yes. Do you think they match, Andrea?
Well, not really.
I think you could find a tie that matches your shirt better than the shirt you
are wearing.
OK. Well, that's a good thing to know.
So it's important to try to wear clothes that match - not like my shirt and tie.
That's OK, Gabe.
Well, let's talk about our last key word.
It is "jacket." Now a jacket is something that you wear over your clothes.
You might wear a jacket over a shirt.
If it's cold outside, you might wear a warm jacket.
Or sometimes men wear jackets to look even more formal.
That's right. And I like to wear jackets if I'm going to a fancy party or a
formal dinner.
I would wear a jacket and a tie.
Of course, I would choose to wear a jacket, tie, shirt and pants that match.
Well Gabe, your clothes always look very good.
Oh, thanks.
We do have more to learn together as we talk about men's clothing.
Let's go and see Christina.
Hello, everyone. I'm Christina.
(Chinese).
Mr. Monkey Man, what kind of clothes do men buy?
Men usually buy pants and shirts.
Ooh. What do men usually wear to work?
Sometimes men wear a jacket to work.
And some men wear a tie.
Do you wear ties?
Uh, sometimes.
What kind of ties do you like?
Hmm, I like ties that match my shirts.
Surprise! Look! I bought you a tie.
Oh it's uh, very nice.
Yeah, you can wear it on weekends.
Oh, but on weekends I wear jeans or shorts.
Yeah, this tie will look good with casual clothes.
It's a casual tie.
A casual tie?
Yeah.
Uh, thanks.

And we'll learn more from the Word Brothers.
Hi, everyone. I'm Jim.
And I'm Tim. We're...
The Word Brothers.
We are similar.
But very different.
Yes, just like some English words.
Right. For example, see, S-E-E.
And sea, S-E-A.
These two words sound the same.
But they are very different.
We see, S-E-E, with our eyes.
Some people have good eyes.
They can see very well.
How are your eyes?
How well can you see?
How is "see," S-E-E, different from "sea," S-E-A?
Well, let's see.
Sea, S-E-A, is another word for ocean.
There is a lot of water in a sea.
Yes, the water in the sea is very salty.
Some people like to swim in the sea.
Do you like to swim in the sea?
Yes, swimming in the sea is fun.
How can you remember the difference between these two words?
Well, we see, S-E-E, with our eyes.
This "see" has two E's.
Yes, see, S-E-E, has two E's.
And we have two eyes.
So when we see with our eyes, that's "see," S-E-E.
Do you understand?
OK, friends, sea.
And see.
Can you see the difference?
Good! Until next time, this is Tim.
And Jim, saying...
Goodbye.
