INT C/D: "The One with the Dirty Girl"

Today we will watch a short clip from the popular sitcom Friends to introduce the grammar topic we'll be studying this week.

1) VOCABULARY

"Mitzi is.. my hamster"

3) While you watch, you need to write down six different sentences. The sentences must be said from one person to another (Either Cheryl-Ross/Ross-Cheryl  OR Joey-Ross/Ross-Joey) and be written down exactly as they are said (DIRECT QUOTATION). 

-Use quotation marks "  "  to mark the quoted speech
-The 6 sentences must be one of the following categories:
  1. Question
  2. Imperative (Command) 
  3. Simple Present
  4. Simple Past
  5. Present Perfect
  6. Future (will or be going to)
For example:

1. Question-  Cheryl to Ross: "Would you like to come in?"

REPORTED:  Cheryl asked Ross if he would like to come in. 

2. Imperative- Cheryl to Ross: "Take a seat."

REPORTED: Cheryl told Ross to take a seat
