#LearnEnglish with Finding Nemo! 🐠🌊Ajouté :
Today, we're learning English with Finding Nemo. And I'm excited to teach you with my favorite scene from the movie where we can learn to speak whale.
Dory, this is not whale. You're speaking like upset stomach.
>> Maybe I should try humpback.
>> try humpback.
ALL RIGHT.
YOU ACTUALLY SOUND SICK.
>> MAYBE LOUDER, HUH?
Don't do that.
>> Too much orca. Didn't it sound a little orca-ish? A humpback whale is one of the most famous species. So, this isn't orca. The suffix story used is super native-ish.
When you add -ish to the end of a word, it means kind of. It makes the word less exact. So, orca-ish means a bit like an orca. Are you hungry?
Kind of. I'm a bit peckish. What time did you arrive? 11-ish. Was the movie good? It was okay-ish. You can add -ish to almost anything in casual conversation. It's one of those little words that immediately makes your English sound more natural and native.
You try. Create an example down in the comments.
