    2 People usually eat rice or potatoes as a: dessert/snack/side dish

    10 Money that you give to the waiter is a: bill/course/tip
    9 If you want to pay in a pub, you say: I'm out!/I'm paying!/The bill, please!

Junk totiž znamená haraburdie či prenesene odpad.

    4 what you do, if you be me?
    9 If I not be married, I travel
    2 he, kill me, if he know

    Všimnite si, že would rather sa používa, ak niekto vyjadruje svoju osobnú preferenciu. Naopak had better je skôr vyjadrenie všeobecného odporúčania, čo by mal niekto radšej urobiť vzhľadom na okolnosti. Je teda významovo blízke použitiu anglického should.

    Exercise 11

    • Doplňte had better, would rather, would like či would hate.

    6 It's going to rain. We stay at home.

    Calm down - (upokojiť) patrí medzi oddeliteľné frázové sloveso - separable phrasal verb. Vyznačujú sa tým, že sa priamy predmet (často zámeno) vo vete vkladá medzi sloveso a predložkovú časticu tvoriace frázové sloveso. Napr.: Try to CALM him DOWN. - Pokús sa ho upokojiť. ap. Viac o frázových slovesách pozri lekcia 12.

    Exercise 12

  • sentence
  • 9491

    • Povedzte po anglicky. Využite pomôcky.

    1 Čo by sa stalo? happen
    9 Musel by si počkať. have to
    11 Nemal by jesť orechy. nuts
    5 Veľmi rád by som, ale nemôžem. love to
    6 Koľko by to stálo? cost
    8 Bol by som rád, keby to urobil. glad
    2 Mohol by si mu zavolať? call
    10 Mal by si umyť riad. wash up
    12 Na koho sa mám obrátiť? turn to
    3 Urobil by si to sám? yourself
    7 To by mi neprekážalo. mind that
    4 Pomohli by ste nám? help

    Hoci food, meal aj dish možno po slovensky preložiť ako jedlo, nie je to to isté! Food sú potraviny všeobecne (čokoľvek čo sa dá jesť). Meal je udalosť (prijímanie potravy) aj prijímané pokrmy. Dish je potom jeden konkrétny podávaný pokrm. Napr. Supper is an evening meal., ale My favourite dish is pizza. - “Moje obľúbené jedlo je pizza.”

    Lunch lʌntʃ - obed, býva skôr ľahšie jedlo (v práci ap.). Hlavné jedlo dňa v anglicky hovoriacich krajinách je dinner ˈdɪnə - najčastejšie popoludní (po práci ap.). Pre nás to teda môže byť skorá večera. Neskorej či druhej večeri sa potom hovorí supper ˈsʌpə.
