| B | This lesson was also mostly on the past tense of the verb but with a
much richer vocabulary and introducing questions. For conversation you need
to be able to pose and answer questions. Try and write a similar phone conversation.
Obviously Seán fancies Aingeal in this conversation but Aingeal may
also like Colm. What of a phone conversation between Aingeal and Colm?
Alternatively, or in addition, write another essay in the past tense. Include some conversation in it with questions and answers. Learn by heart the short expressions: Go hiontach! Ar fheabhas! Dáiríre? Ná bí fiosrach! Muise! Tá má tá! Enrol and send your work to me by email for correction. |
