Hi Arantxa !! How are you? I am Antonio Sánchez from 1ºA
ReplyDeleteFor today, I chose five common expressions that are used many times in English.
There are:
- IF I WERE YOU ... -> This expression is used to advise. For example: If I were you, I would do my homework.
- TO BE HONEST ... -> This expression is used before giving an honest opinion. For example: To be honest, you should practice drawing.
- DON’T GET MY WRONG ... -> This expression is used to correct itself. For example: Don’t get my wrong, but you’re very pretty.
- HOW COME? ... -> This expression is used when we are surprised. For example: I can't leave the house. How come?
Take care. #Stayathome

3 Mama I would help you clean but THE THING THAT I'm studying
4 Hi Jesus LONG TIME NO SEE, since 2016
5 Arantxa TO BE HONEST I want to thank you for all the teachers do to study at home
EXTRA CREDITS:
in my opinion the best one is "I'D LOVE TO BUT ..." because it gives you a new form of negation to say something well and that is the one that will be used the most and I will use it because I don't have much time
Hello! I'm Aylén. 1A

2-By the way..........what are you doing?
3-How come........ your day?

In my opinion, the most useful expression is "By the way" because you can use it in any context and in any place.
