Junk totiž znamená haraburdie či prenesene odpad.

    7 I give it to you, if I can
    12 She not mind it, if you come
    10 If she be late, we must wait
    4 what you do, if you be me?

    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.

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

    8 Will you have some wine? No, I have a beer.

    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.

    11 Nemal by jesť orechy. nuts
    8 Bol by som rád, keby to urobil. glad
    6 Koľko by to stálo? cost
    2 Mohol by si mu zavolať? call
    9 Musel by si počkať. have to
    5 Veľmi rád by som, ale nemôžem. love to
    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
    1 Čo by sa stalo? happen
    10 Mal by si umyť riad. wash up

    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.
