The imperative

Hey everyone, welcome back to Every Day English Academy.

I looked outside this morning and it was so gray and rainy.

I just wanted to pull the covers over my head and sleep more.

It's weird how weather affects our mood, right?

Like, when it's sunny I wake up feeling ready to go, but rainy days I just feel slow.

Actually, that's kind of funny because that's what we're talking about today.

Right, we're talking about weather in English.

And I know some people might think, "Oh, weather.

Weather is something everyone talks about every single day.

It's like the most common small talk topic ever.

In England, people talk about weather all the time.

You can meet someone on the bus and just say, "Terrible weather today, isn't it?" and boom, you're having a conversation.

It's the easiest way to start talking to someone you don't know.

Like, you can't just walk up to someone and say, "Tell me about your life.

But saying, "Nice day, huh?" is totally normal.

So today we're going to help you feel comfortable talking about weather in English.

We're not going to use crazy difficult words.

Just normal, everyday English that you can use right away.

I know, but sunny days can be too bright for me.

I like it when it's a bit cloudy and there's a nice breeze.

Not strong wind that blows everything around, just a nice soft breeze.

Well, okay, not super hot, but warm and sunny, perfect.

I start sweating and feeling uncomfortable.

And here's a fun question: does weather change your mood?

Like you said earlier, rain makes you sleepy.

Well, not too sunny, but you know what I mean.

Okay, so let's start with some basic phrases.

So if you want to ask someone about the weather, the easiest way is just, "How's the weather?" Simple, right?

You can also say, "What's the weather like?" Same meaning.

Well, you just describe what you see outside.

Like, "It's sunny today," or "It's raining." Exactly.

Sarah, how's the weather where you are right now?

It's cloudy and... actually, I think it might rain soon.

She said, "It's cloudy," and then added her prediction.

Yeah, you can always add a little extra information if you want.
