Evan TS#15

Dojun and I met on Skype and I answered some questions he had about the difference between similarly defined vocabulary words, and the many correct uses of "would." Defining "would" was difficult, but Dojun found helpful that it is often used when expressing desires or intentions. If I ever teach "should," "could," and "would" I will be sure to study beforehand. We also discussed the difference between "Would you like something to drink?" and "Could I get you something to drink?" I told Dojun that they are both polite, but "would you like something..." tends to be more formal. Some words that had similar meanings that Dojun wanted further explanation of were "related to," "involving," and "has to do with" which I told him that "has..." is a broad sense of being a part of something and "involving" is more specific. On our next meeting we plan to talk about Independence Day.
