In this lesson you will learn how to speak when you wish to do something at some other time.

Murphy, aren’t you studying?

I’ve just finished. Let me watch South Park!

I guess it’s your turn to clean the kitchen today.

We had a deal, Kate. Don’t you remember the laundry?

Murphy, that deal is already done. I cleaned the carpets! You’d better clean up the kitchen now.

Uff...!!! Alright! I’ll do that later. For now, let me watch TV.

My kids get on my nerves these days.

Guess they are not kids anymore!

Guess not. Every time I tell them to do something, I get a ‘do it later’ reply!

My kids say that, too. It’s a teenage problem.

I never did that when I was a teenager!

Then probably you should do it now.

What do you mean?

When your kids ask you for something, reply “I’ll do it later”.

Yeah, that might be a good solution.

I’ve tried it and it brought me good results!

Have you already fixed the car, Murphy?

No, I was thinking about doing it later in the afternoon.

You’ve been saying that since Monday!

I promise! It’ll be done by evening. Have you ironed my clothes?

No, I will do it later.

Please stop saying that! I need to go out.

Then go and fix the car right now!

Okay! Okay! I got the message.

Austen, how are you?

I’m fine Kate! I was looking for you!

For me, why?

Can you review this article for me?

Sure.

Actually, I was planning to submit it by this afternoon.

I need to cook something for the children. Will it be fine if I do it later?

It’s fine, I’m in no hurry.

Alright Austen. I’ll do it later for sure!

You’d better clean up the kitchen now.

Alright! I’ll do that later. For now, let me watch TV.

Every time I tell them to do something, I get a ‘do it later’ reply!

No, I will do it later.

You’ve been saying that since Monday!

Will it be fine if I do it later?

I’ll do it later for sure!
