that we do together we will have 07:30 a moment like now when I go in this 07:33 position 07:35 and we will work with a scream let's 07:39 look at that dinner the screen now this 07:42 is a moment when we focus on the grammar 07:45 so all the things that I said then had 07:49 the verb to be so let's look at the verb 07:53 to be here we are I am you are he is she 08:00 is it is we are you are and they are now 08:08 when we speak in English we contract the 08:12 form so that I am becomes I'm you are 08:17 becomes your he is becomes he's she is 08:24 she's it is it's we are where you are 08:32 you're they are there okay so there is 08:39 quite a difficult pronunciation there 08:42 they are there now let's look at the 08:46 sentences I'm your teacher you're my 08:50 student he's good-looking she's a puppy 08:57 it's a Japanese hat we're a team you're 09:05 interested and they're very good now in 09:11 our story that's life there was some 09:13 phrases using the verb to be for example 09:16 and said I'm an I'm from Oxford and then 09:22 Alice said you're a Capricorn you're 09:27 American other examples were he's from 09:32 New York she's really happy it's a 09:38 mexican hat it's an African mask it's 09:44 really beautiful italy's wonderful we're 09:50 flatmates your students and they're so 09:56 friendly ok now that's the verb to be be 10:00 careful with the pronunciation your 10:02 we're there now you're going to see the 10:07 first episode of that's life again but 10:10 this time listen very carefully and see 10:13 if you can recognize all the parts of 10:17 the verb to be alright and then I'll see 10:20 you later okay bye hello I'm Jack hello 10:40 my name is Anne nice to meet you it's a 10:44 pleasure so this is the house hmm it's 10:49 really

hundred percent 11:14 English yes and you are American is that 11:20 right yes but my family is from Italy 11:23 Bologna Italy is wonderful my sister is 11:28 in Italy at the moment where she's in 11:31 Rome studying Italian painter's huh 11:34 she's really happy the Italians are so 11:37 friendly oh that's Alice she's also part 11:43 of the family it's nice to meet you 11:46 Alice said 11:47

12:36 mask is it magic of course but look at 12:41 this a bottle of Italian wine do you 12:47 like wine 12:58 hello again was that a bit easier yeah 13:02 good now let's continue with our lesson 13:07 about the verb to be but this time we're 13:10 going to study the negative form so 13:13 listen to me again I'm not english i'm 13:19 welsh in a whale's wales scotland 13:23 england wales i'm welsh and I'm not a 13:29 teacher I'm a singer you know singer 13:33 letter that are there well but don't 13:37 worry don't worry now you aren't fluent 13:43 in English yet you aren't fluent but you 13:48 will be now he my boyfriend hmm he isn't 13:56 rich he isn't famous and he isn't tall 14:02 but he's still wonderful ah she yes she 14:08 isn't a pedigree and she isn't very 14:13 obedient but she's smashing it yeah well 14:20 this hat it isn't very practical it 14:25 isn't very practical is it now we aren't 14:32 friends yet but we will become friends 14:37 so we aren't they those they vant 14:44 English music and they aren't cheap ok 14:51 so those are examples of the verb to be 14:54 in the negative and now it's time to 14:57 move to our language screen where we can 15:01 study the grammar together now like in 15:05 the positive for 15:07 we have a contraction in the negative 15:11 let's look at the negative I am NOT you 15:16 are not he is not she is not it is not 15:21 we are not you are not they are not now 15:26 to contract those when we speak we say 15:30 I'm not English you aren't you see that 15:37 and are not aren't difficult 15:40 pronunciation you aren't worried he 15:45 isn't famous she isn't obedient it isn't 15:54 comfortable we aren't relatives you 16:01 aren't fluent and they aren't cheap so 16:07 the difficult here is the pronunciation 16:09 of are not witches aren't okay aren't 16:14 good so that's the negative of the verb 16:18 to be and now it's time to go back to 16:21 our story that's life and I'll see you 16:24 soon bye mm-hmm this one is very

29:50 groups to help you remember okay so 29:54 let's look at the screen the first group 29:58 is with the sound eh and the letters are 30:02 a H J and K all right the second group 30:10 is with the sound e at the end so the 30:14 letters are b c d e g p T and V okay the 30:25 next group is with the sound eh for 30:29 example F L 30:32 m n s x and z in the middle z alright 30:40 next group is I

about 47:24 the time for dinner 830 930-1030 well 47:31 that's what we're going to do in the 47:33 lesson now is look at how you tell the 47:36 time in English and for that I need a 47:39 clock so here we have a clock now when 47:45 the hand is in this position on the hour 47:49 in English we say o'clock it's look at 47:54 this six o'clock now if we move the hand 48:00 into this position so it's 15 minutes 48:05 after we say it's a quarter past six a 48:10 quarter past six let's move it again and 48:16 here we have half past this is half past 48:22 six alright 30 minutes after half past 48:25 let's move again like this this is a 48:32 quarter to six a quarter to 45 minutes 48:38 all right now let's look at those things 48:41 on the screen because they're quite 48:43 difficult to pronounce all right let's 48:46 go and see them now so the questions 48:52 were what time is it or what's the time 48:58 then we said it's five o'clock with it 49:02 on the hour it's a quarter past two for 49:07 example it's a half past three and it's 49:12 a quarter to nine those are the examples 49:17 all right just with it hello hello yes 49:26 oh yes yes about the romantic weekend in 49:29 Paris yeah yeah yeah yes I'm very very 49:32 interested yes okay yeah um what time is 49:41 departure departure at nine-fifteen okay 49:47 and what time is a rival 1030 okay 49:52 that's good 1030 great and what about 49:56 the romantic dinner for two yeah in the 50:01 evening eight okay yes eight o'clock 50:04 that's perfect and then there was a boat 50:07 trip on the sin what time is that 845 in 50:13 the morning hmm that's a bit early okay 50:16 but that's fine and our departure from 50:19 Paris when is that ok good 340 in the 50:27 afternoon fantastic yes thanks great i 50:30 love it yes i'll book it ok great thank 50:34 you very much thank you yes bye 50:39 fantastic that is a holiday that I've 50:43 booked for my boyfriend and I for his 50:46 birthday for a romantic weekend now did 50:51 you hear when I was speaking I was using 50:54 digital time in English now let's look 50:58 at that on the screen digital time well 51:02 it's very easy because you just read the 51:06 numbers so for example 9 15 is 915 look 51:13 at the screen 1030 845 so very easy if 51:21 you know the English numbers digital 51:24 time is very easy now in English we use 51:28 the 12-hour clock so we say ten o'clock 51:33 in the morning we don't say ten o'clock 51:36 a.m. we say in 51:39 in the morning we say 340 in the 51:44 afternoon not PM 340 in the afternoon 51:50 okay and then we say seven o'clock seven 51:54 o'clock in the evening we don't use p.m. 51:58 so seven o'clock in the evening and then 52:03 for example 11 15 at night so in the 52:08 morning in the afternoon in the evening 52:12 and at night okay so that is telling the 52:18 time in English that's both normal time 52:21 and digital times so I think you'll find 52:24 that useful good well keep studying and 52:28 remember to come back and be with us 52:30 again at English today well you'll be 52:32 learning English live so see you very 52:35 soon take care bye 52:51 good evening everyone welcome to our TV 52:54

just used 61:39 to talk about cinema first of all in 61:43 American English the word movies means 61:46 films a movie is a film and the movies 61:50 means the cinema let's go to the movies 61:54 is an invitation to go to the cinema 61:57 when we talk about cinema the word star 62:00 means a famous actor who plays principal 62:04 roles in films star is also a verb it 62:07 means to play a role in a film George 62:11 Clooney stars in many films we all know 62:15 what an actor is someone like George 62:18 Clooney who plays a role in a film but 62:21 what about Julia Roberts she's an 62:23 actress and actor is a man and an 62:26 actress is a woman the person who 62:30 directs a film like Steven Spielberg is 62:32 called a film director and the person 62:36 who writes a film is called a screen 62:38 writer George Clooney rights films so 62:42 he's a screenwriter he directs films so 62:46 he's a film director and he stars in 62:48 films so he's also an actor notice how 62:53 we always use the article are or an 62:56 before a profession we never say he's 63:00 film director we say he's a film 63:03 director well that's all for now I hope 63:06 you enjoyed the program I certainly 63:08
