| In this lesson, we'll learn about a place crucial to your travels in this modern age - the Internet café! Normally, you find Internet cafés in the big main cities. However, if you are in a very small town, there is a possibility the town isn't connected to the World Wide Web. Don't be scared to try to go back and get used to the old standards of communication. |
| But, for this lesson, let's imagine you're at the reception and you need to ask how much the connection is and for how long. You would ask, Excuse me, how much is it per hour? Let's break it down. We have our usual excuse me to get the person's attention. Then we have to ask the price, so it's how much is as we have learned, and then per hour for how long. So all together we have - Excuse me, how much is it per hour? |
| The person may answer, It's $4.00 an hour. It's is a contraction of it and is, $4.00 is the price, and an hour, is how much time you have. Once again, that's It's $4.00 an hour. |
| However, with phones being prominent tools for Internet connection, perhaps you can find a network around a major city. Sometimes these Wi-Fi signals are free. Sometimes you have to pay. Sometimes you just have to buy a cup of coffee at a café to get the password. |
| Okay, now to close out today's lesson, we'd like you to practice what you've just learned. I'll say the phrase or sentence, and why don't you try saying it out loud? Good luck everybody! |
| - Excuse me, how much is it per hour? |
| - It's $4.00 an hour. |
| All right, that's going to do it for today! See you all soon! |
