-What would you say?
This week’s topic is:
What is your best childhood memory?
Today, let’s look at some ways to say that you remember something.
In the dialogue, Mei says: One unforgettable day, we found my mom’s makeup.
Moeno, what does the word “unforgettable” mean?
I think it means someone cannot forget.
Yes. That’s right. Something that is “unforgettable” is impossible to forget.
Right. Mei means that she will always remember the day that they found her mom’s makeup.
Yes. When you use this pattern, you can start by saying, “One unforgettable day, …” and then go on to say what happened.
And, of course, you can use different words to describe when it happened – for example, “one wonderful day” or “one rainy night.”
Everyone, let’s try practicing using Mei’s line. Ready?
One unforgettable day, we found my mom’s makeup.
One unforgettable day, we found my mom’s makeup. Good job.
Yugo shares a favorite memory, too. He says: I’ll always remember when I made my dad laugh.
