Last week I showed you this sentence:
“Yes, English can be weird. It can be understood through tough, thorough thought though.”
Let’s see if we can understand it piece by piece.
- English can be weird → English is strange / English has rules that are difficult to understand
- It can be understood → You CAN understand English!
- through → by
- tough → hard / difficult
- thorough → completely done / well done / detailed
- thought → thinking / studying
- though → however / but
All together we can say something like this:
“Yes, English can be difficult to understand. But, you can understand it by studying hard and doing your best!”
I hope that was a little bit easier to understand! If you didn’t get it, don’t worry, next time we’ll try an easier one. Or ask me about it in class!
