 Let'recap/ Nous avons vu à l'oral , l'utilisation de Be+ING, il est temps d'en garder une trace.

PRESENT CONTINUOUS (Be +BV-ING)

From Wikimedia Commons, the free media repositoryer  

Jusqu’à présent nous avons surtout travaillé avec l'auxiliaire "To BE" et quelques verbes lexicaux.

 To placé devant le verbe est la marque de l’infinitif.   expl : to eat. La base verbale est eat (sans to).

Le 1^er emploi de ce présent continu : commenter une action en train de se dérouler.

Formation : Il faut conjuguer be au présent (on peut contracter) puis ajouter ING à la base verbale du verbe voulu.

➡ ( to rain: pleuvoir)  It is raining /It's raining

➡ ( to snow: neiger)  It is snowing /It's snowing.

➡ ( to sleet:tomber de la neige fondue)  It is sleeting/ It's sleeting.

Hello everybody. Let's talk about the weather in the United Kingdom

Today, in Glasgow the weather is cold with 47 °Fahrenheit, and it’s foggy in Edinburgh, the temperature is at 51°. In Manchester, it’s cloudy and 60°, and it’s rainy in Liverpool with a temperature of 59°. In the south, the weather is better, it’s hot; 81° in Dover, and in London, it's sunny with a nice 77° in the shade. In Cardiff, the weather is cool, 70°  but a bit windy. Finally, in Belfast, it’s stormy with a temperature of 50°.

How to convert from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius? Take out your calculator and apply the formula:

From FAHRENHEIT to CELSIUS T (°C) = [T (°F) – 32] x [5 / 9]

Expl: For 47° F--------> T (°C) = [47 - 32] x --------> 15 [5 / 9] = 15 x 0.555 = 8.3°C

Now look at the map of the British Isles. Name the countries and capitals, and place the cities mentioned above.

                        

Give the composition of Great Britain, the United Kingdom and the British Isles.

Great-Britain     = ENGLAND   + SCOTLAND +WALES  

United Kingdom= ENGLAND   + SCOTLAND +WALES  + NOTHERN IRELAND

British Isles         = ENGLAND   + SCOTLAND +WALES  + NOTHERN IRELAND + REPUBLIC                                     OF IRELAND
