Now...
It's...
Time...
For...
Two...
In...
One.
The part of the show where we use two key words...
In one sentence.
OK, it's Two in One. I love it.
And I hope that you also enjoy this game.
Two key words in one sentence.
OK, let me think... I know.
I am going to a formal party, so I need a fancy dress.
Ooh, I know the key words you used.
You used "formal" and "fancy." Going to a formal party, so you need a fancy
dress.
Well, let's see. What is my sentence?
Ah, yes.
The annoying guest ate all of the cake and ice cream.
No!
Yes.
Oh, yes, you just used not two, but three key words in one sentence.
You used the key words "guest," "cake" and "ice cream." Great job, Gabe.
Well friends, be sure to practice your Two in One or Three in One sentence
today.
Now let's see these key words in our conversations.
"Yes, sir, I can wait.".
Who are you talking to?
I'm waiting to talk to someone at Georgio's Restaurant.
That's a fancy restaurant.
I know. I'm not a good cook.
So I want to order their food for my mom's birthday party.
Their food is delicious. I love their soups.
Are you planning a formal party?
Oh, no. It will be a casual party.
In Conversation A, Lily says, "I'm not a good cook." I'm not a good cook.
Now here we see our key word "cook" again.
So someone who cooks, who prepares food for others is called a cook.
Now what is a "cooker"?
A cooker is a machine that you use to prepare food.
So you do not call a person a "cooker." You cannot say, "You are a good cooker."
No.
Then you are calling that person a machine.
But you can say, "You are a good cook." You can also say: The food is in the
cooker.
Dinner should be ready soon.
English is sometimes funny that way.
Someone who works is a worker.
Someone who plays is a player.
But someone who cooks is a cook.
It's just one of those things that you need to remember.
And we know that you can do it.
Why? Because you are a good student.
We'll continue now with Conversation B.
Maybe you should order food from the supermarket.
The supermarket? Really?
Sure. You can order finger foods, like fruits, vegetables, meats and cheeses.
So the guests can walk around and eat.
Exactly! You can also order a cake and ice cream from the supermarket.
Good idea!
"Oh, hello, Georgio! No, I'm sorry.
I don't need anything from you. Goodbye!".
So I guess she doesn't need anything from Georgio's Restaurant anymore.
She's going to just plan a casual birthday party for her mom.
It will not be a fancy party.
It won't be a formal party.
It will be a casual party.
People don't need to dress up.
But she might have some finger foods.
Susie suggests ordering finger foods, like fruits, vegetables, meats and
cheeses.
So what are finger foods?
Well, it's like what it sounds like.
They're foods that you eat with your fingers - little foods, like pieces of
cheese or grapes or little pieces of fruit.
It's anything that you don't need to use forks, knives, spoons or chopsticks to
eat.
Finger foods.
What kinds of finger foods do you like?
There are many kinds out there.
What kinds do you like?
Talk about that in English.
Right now, it's time for us to review today's lesson.
You're planning a party but don't want to prepare the food.
