Today is the third class in our current four class set. We will begin our class with some lip reading and a numbers exercise.
We have a couple phrases this week, they include, "that's fair," "fair enough," and "fairly rare." "That's fair," is often used as a substitute of for true or okay. "Fair enough," can express acceptable. "fairly," is an adjective we often put in front of words to express a higher degree.
Today's reading is about single malt and our listening material is about horn honking. Please listen for and create examples for the vocabulary words.
