Hello.
-
Welcome to today's program.
-
We're going to look at how to make dates and arrangements on the phone.
-
We'll also have a close look at how we talk about things we're in the middle of doing.
-
But first let's continue a drama 'Sisters and Brothers'.
-
Remember Sarah's brother Steve?
-
It is seemed that he quite liked Anne.
-
Now he's going to make a phone call.
-
Medina Hotel. Marie speaking. How may I help you?
-
Could I speak to Ms Anne Lee, please?
-
I'm not sure [...].
-
I'll put you through sir.
-
Hello?
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Steve Parker?
-
Steve.
-
The Sarah's brother. We met [...].
-
Oh, Steve! Hello Steve.
-
Hi. What are you doing?
-
Oh, working.
-
I'm planning a trip to the wineries later in the week.
-
Ah, when're you going?
-
On Wednesday.
-
Oh, good.
-
What are you doing tomorrow?
-
Er...
-
Nothing.
-
Why?
-
[...] winery.
-
I still wonder whether you want to go to our [...] park?
-
With me.
-
If you did like to go Ms Lee.
-
That's what I did.
-
Yes, I can say I'd love to go.
-
Alright!
-
I'll meet you in the foyer.
-
Ten o'clock?
-
Okay, ten.
-
[...].
-
Great!
-
[...].
-
[...] Steve.
-
Let's have another look at how Steve made that date with Anne.
-
First he has to ring the hotel.
-
Medina Hotel. Marie speaking. How may I help you?
-
Could I speak to Ms Anne Lee, please?
-
Steve says...
-
... 'Could I speak to Ms Anne Lee, please?'
-
He's been polite.
-
We use the word 'could' like this when we ask someone to do something for us.
-
It's a question.
-
So he says 'could' before 'I' - 'could I ...?'
-
Try saying 'could I' with the clip.
-
Could I speak to Ms Anne Lee, please?
-
He says 'please'.
-
Asking someone to do something is a type of question called a request.
-
We use 'please' to make a request polite.
-
Steve's request works and the receptionist puts him through to Anne.
-
Hello?
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Steve Parker?
-
Sometimes just the way we say name though single words make questions.
-
When Steve says 'Anne?' he means 'Are you Anne?'
-
Listen first and then say with Steve.
-
Hello?
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Hello?
-
Now listen to the way that Anne says Steve's name.
-
Hello?
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Steve Parker?
-
She means 'Who is Steve Parker?'
-
Listen once more and then say it with her.
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Steve Parker?
-
Hello. Anne?
-
This is Steve Parker.
-
Of course Anne realises who Steve is and then starts to talk.
-
Hi. What are you doing?
-
Oh, working.
-
I'm planning a trip to the wineries later in the week.
-
We've looked at the words called verbs before.
-
And how we change the way we say them to show when something is happening.
-
We call these changes tenses.
-
Today we're going to look at how to talk about actions that are happening now...
-
... and for a short time into the future.
-
In our next clip listen to the way Steve and Anne say the verbs 'do', 'work', and 'plan'.
-
Hi. What are you doing?
-
Oh, working.
-
I'm planning a trip to the wineries later in the week.
-
Doing.
-
Working.
-
And planning.
-
Notice that when a word ends with a single vowel next to a single consonant...
-
... the consonant is written again or doubled when we add 'ing'.
-
The 'ing' form of verbs is used for talking about things happening now...
-
... and for a short time into the future.
-
This tense is called the present continuous.
-
Because it refers to the present and something that continues or keeps going.
-
Let's look at 'doing' first.
-
Hi. What are you doing?
-
Steve is asking about what Anne is doing at that moment...
-
... and for a short time into the future.
-
So what's Anne doing?
-
Say it with her.
-
Oh, working.
-
I'm planning a trip to the wineries later in the week.
-
Work and plan are verbs of action.
-
They are things we do.
-
Only these sorts of verbs has continuous tenses.
-
Some verbs such as understand and know...
-
... are not used with the 'ing' form of the present continuous.
-
You can say 'I'm working'.
-
This means that you're working now and for a short time into the future.
-
But you can't say 'I'm knowing'.
-
Instead you say 'I know'.
-
Let's see what Michelle's doing.
-
I'll ring her up.
-
Hello. Michelle Crowden speaking.
-
Hello Michelle. This is Brenton.
-
Hello.
-
What are you ringing me for?
-
I just want to know what are you doing tomorrow.
-
I'm doing some shopping.
-
Why?
-
I'm having a barbeque with a few friends and I'd like you to come.
-
[...] very nice to ask me but yes, I'll come.
-
What's the address?
-
23 [...] street.
-
What time shall I come?
-
About one o'clock?
-
Alright. I'll see you then.
-
I'll ring if I'm going to be late.
-
What's your phone number?
-
Eight, three.
-
Double six.
-
Two, seven, nine.
-
Okay. See you later.
-
Now...
-
How did Brenton say this number?
-
He said 'Eight, three, double six, two, seven, nine'.
-
When we have two of the same letters on numbers together like these two sixes...
-
... we describe them as double six.
-
Remember the word 'planning'...
-
... does has the double n.
-
Now try to say this phone number.
-
We would tell someone that this number is eight, two, double seven, double one, double two.
-
I [...] phone Brenton.
-
Eight, three, double six, two, seven, nine.
-
Medina Hotel. Marie speaking. How may I help you?
-
Oh, sorry.
-
I've dialed wrong number. Sorry.
-
The clerk says the place where she works...
-
... the Medina Hotel...
-
... and then 'Marie speaking'.
-
When taking phone call for a business it's best to say what the name of the business is...
-
... so the person knows if they've got the right number.
-
'Speaking' is another example of the present continuous.
-
Marie spoke and [...] speaking into the future.
-
And we should hear her again.
-
I'll use the redial back.
-
Medina Hotel. Marie speaking. How may I help you?
-
How may I help you?
-
This is a form of way of asking 'How can I help you?'
-
It's a high class hotel.
-
Remember that we say 'can' or 'may' before 'I' in questions.
-
Now I should ring Brenton.
-
Tell me the number while I dial so I don't get wrong again.
-
Eight, three, double six, two, seven, nine.
-
Thanks.
-
Hello.
-
Hello. Brenton?
-
Oh, hello Michelle.
-
Brenton, about the barbeque.
-
Yes.
-
Can I be with friend?
-
Of course you can Michelle.
-
I've got to ask earlier...
-
... could you bring a bottle of wine?
-
Yes, I could do that.
-
And could you show our viewers the part of the story where Steve arranges when to meet Anne?
-
Yes, I'll do that.
-
See you later.
-
See you.
-
Here it is.
-
I'll meet you in the foyer.
-
Ten o'clock?
-
Okay, ten.
-
Steve used the way he said 'ten o'clock' to make it a question.
-
It's quicker to say that 'Is ten o'clock a good time?'
-
Listen once more and then say 'Ten o'clock?' with Steve.
-
I'll meet you in the foyer.
-
Ten o'clock?
-
Okay, ten.
-
I'll meet you in the foyer.
-
Okay, ten.
-
And now here is Michelle in person.
-
Hello Michelle.
-
Hello Brenton.
-
Let's go over what we've learned today.
-
We learned some things about making phone calls.
-
We learned that you can ask a question by the way you speak a word.
-
Really?
-
Yes, really.
-
And we've found out one of the uses for the 'ing' form of verbs - the present continuous.
-
And about phone numbers.
-
And how to ask some very common questions.
-
Let's review them.
-
Say them after us.
-
Could I speak to Ms Anne Lee, please?
-
What are you doing?
-
What's the address?
-
What time shall I come?
-
What's your phone number?
-
In our next episode we're going to look...
-
... at so many common words that are said together so often...
-
... today become one word.
-
Until next time see you later.
-
Now it's time to show you today's episode of our drama again.
-
Goodbye.
-
Medina Hotel. Marie speaking. How may I help you?
-

-
I'll put you through sir.
