Food Grammar!
Hello Everyone! I hope you`re having a great week!
Today we`re going to talk about food Grammar!
English grammar can be quite difficult to grasp but with the right practice you can get used to it! We will take a look at some food examples to help make sense of it!
Firstly let`s take a look at the word "Pizza". Here are a few sentences with the word Pizza.
I am eating Pizza. I am eating a Pizza.
I bought Pizza for lunch. I bought a Pizza for lunch.
Would you like Pizza? Would You like some Pizza? Would you like a Pizza?
If you use the article "a" with foods such as Pizza then that means that you are talking about "1" of it. If you remove the artice "a" then it is an undetermined amount. Meaning that if you are "eating Pizza" the listener doesnt know how much, only that you are eating some undisclosed amount of Pizza. It could be one slice, two slices or even an entire Pizza! It is the same with cake and other foods that would come as a whole or in pieces."I ate cake" means that it could be any amount of cake "I ate a cake" means that you ate AN ENTIRE cake.
With some other foods such as fruits, if you remove the article "a" it means that you are talking about the flavour and not the fruit. For example with "I ate banana" and "I ate a banana". The first example means that you ate something that was bannana flavoured such as ice cream and the other example means that you ate the fruit. The reason behind this is that in most cases adjectives and proper nouns don`t have articles (unless they are titles) which means that when you don`t use "a/an" or "the" with countable common nouns, you are turning the common noun into an adjective, an uncountable or a proper noun.
Let`s take a look at some more examples.
Bob: "I don`t like Apple" ~ This is is confusing as Apple is also the name of a software company.
Bob: "I don`t like (the company) Apple" ~ Now this makes sense as it is clear that we mean the company.
Bob: "I dont like apple flavour" ~ This makes sense, as here apple is an adjective which modifies the word flavour.
Bob: "I don`t like apples" ~ There is a counter "-s" so the sentence makes sense.
Let us take a look at some more examples.
Toby: "I have dog" ~ This could mean the toy of a character named "Dog" making it confusing.
Toby: "I have a dog" ~ Animals are countable making the sentence clear. He has one dog.
Toby: "I have dogs" ~ He has more than one dog.
There you have it! You can leave out articles when talking about foods such as Pizza, Ice Cream, Cake, Steak, Chicken (and Beef/Pork/Lamb by extension) etc as with most foods. They are usually adjectives or can come in partial quantities allowing you to not use articles (if you are able to) when speaking about them!
I hope you have a great rest of the week!

Greeting with Compliments!
Hello Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend!
Today we will look at using compliments to start conversations!
One way to start a conversation with a compliment is to say "Nice----". For example "Nice Hairstyle". The other person will probably say thanks and you can ask them where/how they got the hairstyle to continue the conversation. It works well with clothing too! It is a lot more fluid than the standard "Hello, how are you?". It is fine and most of your conversations will start that way but a better way to practice is with compliments.
Here is an example conversation:
Sipho: "Nice shoes Tomomi!"
Tomomi: "Thanks! I got them at the Outlet Mall"
Sipho: "That`s cool! Were they expensive?"
Tomomi: "Not really. They were on sale. They were only 5000 yen"
Sipho: "Wow, that is a cool deal. That outlet mall is great"
Tomomi: "I know right? I always get my clothes from there"
As you can see. It is easier to jump into a conversation from a compliment. You also get to use some common language that you already know!
I hope this helps you with your conversation practice! Enjoy the rest of your week!

Transportation vehicles!
Good day everyone! Today I am going to share the different kinds
of transportation vehicles that we use in The Philippines.
1. Jeepney- This is the national transportation vehicle in The Philippines.
It is used by daily commuters to go to work or to other destinations.
The fare is cheap, it`s about 20.00 pesos or 50.00 yen.
However, there is a downside . It is not airconditioned and it can
get really crowded especially during rush hours.
So keep this in mind, before you try riding it.
2. Habal - Habal- In local term we call it `Habal-Habal` whilst in English it is
called a motorbike. However, it`s not mainly for personal use.
In the Philippine we also use it for commuting to remote places.
3. Pedicab- This is also one of the most famous transportation vehicle in The Philippines.
It is small and has a variety of color. We mainly use it for short
distance travel and the fare is also very cheap.
You only need to pay 10.00 pesos or 20.00 yen for one ride.
Those are the most famous transportation vehicle in The Philippines,
so if you ever get a chance to visit The Philippines. It will definitely
be a great experience to try riding them, but always remember to be aware
of your surroundings and safety is always first.
