Opposites - Grammar Fail and Roadblocks
There are times when you just hit the wall when a student asks you about opposites.
I will document them here.
Sam: How's the weather in Korea?
Student: It's snow very muchee.
Sam: Do you mean it's snowing hard in Korea.
Student: (ecstatic) Yes, yes. Snowing very hardly.
Sam: Repeat after me, It's snowing hard in Korea.
Student: It's snow hard Korea. Teacher!
Sam: Do you have a question?
Student: Yes, teacher, question. What is other of snow hard?
Sam: Do you mean the opposite of snowing hard?
Student: Yes, teacher. What is opposite snow hard?
Sam: Well...(blizzard passes through) It's not...snowing in Korea? I really don't know. It doesn't snow in the Philippines.
After class...
Sam: (googles) Puta, lightly. Snowing lightly, tanga.
