Szia,
Ma tovább folytatjuk tegnap elkezdett témánkat, ami nem más, mint a képleírás. A tegnapi általános bevezető után most nézzük meg, hogyan kell emberekről beszélni.
Nemrég létrehoztunk egy zárt tanulóközösséget is a Facebookon, ahova, ha csatlakozol, több olyan leckét is küldök, amelyek máshol nem láthatók, illetve számos kulisszatitokba is bepillantást nyerhetsz, sőt olyan kedvezményekről is értesülhetsz, amelyekről más nem 🙂
Itt tudsz csatlakozni hozzánk:
Jó tanulást!
Üdv,
Nóri

TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE’S APPEARANCE
People come in different sizes and shapes, so there are plenty of ways to talk about physical appearance. Let’s see it step-by-step!
AGE – KOR
– My grandmother is quite old, in fact, she is an old age pensioner (she has a pension) or a senior citizen.
– My mother is 55, she is middle-aged.
– My sister is 24, she is a young adult.
– My brother is only 17, he is a teenager.
– The boy in the middle is 2 years old, he is a toddler.
– The baby is around 5 months old.

BUILD – TESTFELÉPÍTÉS
As we’ve said before, people are built in all shapes and sizes. There are those who are fat and overweight. Some people are extremely overweight and are obese. Other people are naturally slim, but others look have absolutely no fat on them and are thin, or skinny. Personally, I am stocky – small, but well-built. My father is tall and lean – with very little fat. My sister is short, but wiry – she is quite thin, but muscular. Both my brothers are athletic and well-proportioned. My mother looks like a 1940’s film star. She is curvaceous, with an hour-glass figure. My grandfather is fit for his age and takes plenty of exercise. He doesn’t want all his muscles to get flabby.
Colouring
My sister has fair hair and fair skin. She doesn’t tan easily and has to be careful in the sun. My mother is blonde, also with a fair complexion. I am a red-head – with red hair. Like many other people with a pale complexion, I get freckles from the sun – small brown dots on my face and arms. In contrast, my father has dark-brown hair and he is quite dark-skinned.
Face
Faces, like build, vary a lot. Some people have oval faces – their foreheads are much wider than their chins. Other people have heart-shaped, square or round faces. Features also vary. My grandfather has bushy eyebrows, a hooked nose and high cheekbones. My mother has a broad nose, but she is lucky to have even or regular teeth. My sister corrected her crooked teeth by wearing a brace which straightened them. She has rosy cheeks, small ears and a snub nose, which goes up at the end.
I have long, curly hair, though my sister is the opposite, with short, straight hair. Her hair is fine and doesn’t weigh very much, but mine is thick and heavy. My mother’s hair is wavy – in between straight and curly. It’s cut in a bob and she also has a short fringe, where it is cut horizontally across her forehead. My father is losing his hair – in fact he is going bald, which makes him very sad.
