Hi, everyone. I’m George.
And today, we’re going to learn how to talk about our daily routines.
But before I begin, don’t forget to like the video
and to subscribe to the channel.
Right. So this is what I do every day.
I get up at 8:30 AM.
My twin, Geoff, puts his alarm on snooze.
And then gets up ten minutes later.
When talking about time, we use the preposition at.
For example, I wake up at 8:30.
Or I go to work at nine o’clock. We sometimes exercise together.
We use the adverb sometimes to talk about the things that we do
50% of the time.
I have a shower, and Geoff does his hair. Yeah.
In the UK we say, I have a shower.
But in the US they say, I take a shower.
We both get dressed.
I usually have cereal for breakfast, and Geoff has a cookie.
When we talk about things that we eat for each meal we can say, I have mm for mm.
For example, I have cereal for breakfast.
Or I have sandwiches for lunch.
We use usually for things we do 90% of the time.
I brush my teeth, whilst Geoff brushes his moustache.
I go to work at 11 AM, and Geoff goes back to sleep.
I always get the metro to work.
Always is used for things we do 100% of the time.
I finish work around 7:40,
and get home about 8:20.
When we don’t know the exact time, we can use around or about.
For example, I eat dinner around seven o’clock.
Or I get to work about ten o’clock.
I cook dinner whilst listening to music.
After dinner, we usually play a board game together.
Or watch cat videos on YouTube.
We go bed at 11.
I read my book for about an hour, while Geoff reads the news on his phone.
And then we usually fall asleep about midnight.
Let’s have a quick review of the verbs used in this video.
I get up. We exercise. I have a shower.
I get dressed. I brush my teeth. I go to work.
I finish work. I cook dinner. We go to bed.
For regular verbs, we can just add
-s on the end when using the third person singular.
For example, I get up becomes he gets up,
or she gets up.
And I exercise becomes he exercises, or she exercises.
When the verb ends in
-ch,
-ss,
-sh,
-x or
-zz, we add
-es.
For example, I brush my teeth becomes he
brushes his teeth, or she brushes her teeth.
And I finish work becomes he finishes work, or she finishes work.
And these are the irregular verbs.
So I have a shower becomes he has a shower, or she has a shower.
I go to work becomes he goes to work, or she goes to work.
