Let's do this this setting Okay, so we're going to be talking about the time and the place and the location. Here we go. A woman is sitting at a wooden table. The room is full of natural light coming from a window behind the lady. The time could be anywhere from early morning to early afternoon. Since it's so bright with natural light, we can assume that it's a clear sunny day outside.

Okay, so that is a description. Now it is time for pronunciation and then we'll get to some vocabulary, right repeat after me. The woman is sitting at a wooden table. The room is full of natural light coming from a window behind Find the lady. The time could be anywhere from early morning to early afternoon. Since it's so bright with natural light, we can assume that it's a clear sunny day outside.

Okay, so a couple times in here we see natural light right? Since it's so bright with natural light, full of natural light coming from a window behind the lady. So we can see in this part of the picture it's much brighter right so the there's probably sun coming right through the window in shining towards her back. Right. So it's it's very bright. And when we talk about natural light, this just means light from the sunshine, right?

We don't have to use a lamp. We don't have to turn on an electric light or candle. There's something like that. And that's natural light. And most people like natural light because it makes them feel natural. calm.

It's nice. It's very clear. It's easy to see. Alright, let's see. Who might Boomer who mera Gundam says hello from Turkey. Hello.

Hello. Canton Lee says Good evening. Hello, hello. All right. Okay, so this is the first part of the setting. Right?

Let's keep going. There's a lot more to describe in this picture. There we go. The location could be at the woman's home or apartment in a library or in an office building. The wall in the background is white without any decorations. Right and when we're talking about deck This could be a lot of things right?

When you put decorations on a wall. Let's see if we can find some pictures. No, if you put, we'll just say wall decorations. Right? It could be pictures of your family. It could be a design, it could be something that's kind of funky.

I don't know. Everybody has a different taste. When we say people have different tastes, it means they have different likes, things that are appeal to them that they enjoy and they desire. Right. So in the picture that we're doing, there's no decorations on the wall. It's just an empty white wall.

Okay. There are about a dozen colored pencils inside a round container with their sharpened tips pointing up. Hmm. Okay, a little bit of a lengthy sentence but here's a few words that I think are important. One doesn't is 12 right. So if you did, if you did a search for a dozen eggs, it should show an egg carton with 12 eggs.

He dozen eggs. Right there we go, though a dozen is 12. So when I did the picture when I described there are about a dozen colored pencils. So we're talking about these pencils right here. And I can't see exactly how many are but I'm gonna say about a dozen about 12 inside around containers. So that's this thing right here.

In the container. You can see through the sides, the air can flow through the sides, but the pieces won't fall out. And now we're going to describe the position the positioning of the pencil, you can say with their sharpened tips pointing up. Alright, so they are sharpened and they're ready to be used right so they use the pencil sharpener or something. And whoever put these in, they put The tips up, and it's possible that they put the tips up. Maybe they didn't want them to break when they put them down.

I don't know. But when you grab them you might want to watch out because they're gonna poke your hands. Okay? All right, so that was the description. Let's do pronunciation repeat after me. Here we go.

The location could be at the woman's home or apartment, in a library or in an office building. wall in the background is white without any decorations. There are about a dozen colored pencils inside a round container with their sharpened tips pointing up Okay, so we did pronunciation if you're doing pronunciation, but some apples in the comments, it lets me know that you're participating. All right? More setting. You mean there's more to describe?

Oh yeah, here we go. A blue notebook or a personal organizer is lying on the table near the computer. Hmm. So a notebook is kind of simple, right? It's just a book with paper and you can write in it or take notes with a personal organizer. Hmm.

And just to make sure we're talking about the same thing, let's put the arrow we are talking about this blue thing right here. And it's just the corner of it. We can't see it completely, but we can take have a pretty good guess at what it is. And I'm gonna guess that it is a personal organizer. Let me show you what I mean by a personal organizer. Right goodbye a dozen eggs.

So let's take a look at a personal organizer. Alright, so it might have a planner, it might have a notepad, something that you can use to take notes or maybe take down people's personal information, something like that. So it's a personal planner, it helps organize your day, what you need to do a personal organizer. Okay, right. Let's go back. There is a comfortable black chair in front of the table.

Right? It's just we're describing the setting right now we're kind of ignoring the lady because we're just describing the environment, what is in the room, the physical objects, and we can see just the corner of a black chair here, and I think is probably like a leather office chair. That's what I'm going to guess. So if we looked for a picture of a leather office chair I'm going to guess that it's something maybe not as nice as this one was something similar maybe like this, I don't know, a comfortable chair either way. Okay, the laptop is open, and we can see a black keyboard with white letters, numbers and characters. Alright, so we're talking about the laptop right here.

And we can see that the keypad right or the keyboard, and it's got black, black, black keyboard, the little keys are black, and then the letters are white. So the letters, numbers and characters. When we say characters, we're talking about kind of those funny characters, the symbols like these, these kind of characters, right? We wouldn't call those letters we wouldn't call those numbers but you can call them characters. Sometimes people will call them special characters. Right.

The laptop is probably Apple MacBook. That's what I'm going to guess we can't quite see the logo, but how thin it is and just the layout of the keyboard and the touchpad. So this is the touchpad where you move around the mouse. You put the arrow so we can see that right? So this is called the touchpad right here. And I'm gonna guess that it's an apple MacBook.

Right? Let's do pronunciation repeat after me. A blue notebook or a personal organizer is lying on the table near the computer. There is a comfortable black chair in front of the table. laptop is open and we can see a black keyboard with what letters, numbers and characters. The laptop is probably an apple MacBook.

Okay, so we just finished describing the setting we're talking about the time the place, maybe the weather what's happening in this physical location.
