Hello everybody!
My name is Katharine
and I am your teacher of English.
Today we're going to learn about...
Eh, be quiet, please! Listen!
Today we're going to learn about...
Children! Pay attention, please!
The class is about to start!
Thank you.
By the way, it's wonderful to see you again.
Today we're going to learn about orders and exclamations.
Exclamations are used to express a strong feeling.
For example, when you reach a road crossing, you stop.
If someone keeps on walking,
you can say to them: Stop!
You have to make sure the traffic light is green for you.
You can also say: Don't walk!
That's also an exclamation.
When you go to class, you sit down.
But if someone is standing up,
your teacher could say: Sit down! That's an exclamation.
When your teacher wants to ask someone a question,
she may say: Stand up!
That's also an exclamation.
A lot of exclamations are orders,
but not all of them.
For example,
if you see something you really like,
you might say: Wow!
You may have seen this in comics.
If you're in trouble, you can shout: Help!
That's also an exclamation.
There are also exclamations that star with "what".
Let me think...
Or we can say...
And there're exclamations that start with "how".
Like...
Let's think of more examples...
You can also give orders without exclamations.
For example, your teacher might ask you...
And I'm sure that your parents
have surely told you many times to remember...
Am I right?
Now, can you tell the difference between exclamations and orders?
Exclamations are used to express strong feelings.
For example: Stop! Sit down! Be quiet!
Some exclamations are orders like:
Wow! Help! No way!
And orders can be given in complete sentences like:
Remember to wash your hands.
That's all for now.
Remember to use your new words and expressions in English.
That's an order. See you next time! Bye!
