This game will definitely improve your ability to participate in natural conversations. Conversations about food often happen: at home or in a restaurant, with family or with friends. Is Brussels sprouts the only healthy vegetable? Why are the potatoes too soft, or who is washing up today? These and many other topics require comment and reaction.
On the cards, you will find 100 topics for discussion and as many as 500 reactions and ready-made phrases that players choose for conversations. Each time the conversation is different, unpredictable and unique. Interlocutors decide whether they want to respond kindly, indifferently or maliciously. Joker cards will help you get rid of your cards faster and win the round. However, it would help if you chose your phrases logically to fit the context. Otherwise, you'll miss your chance.
Example conversation topics:
”Coffee makes everything possible.” , “Beetroots are awful!”.” „We need to peel these cucumbers.” „What is this smell?.” and 96 more..
Example Responses:
„Whatever, I’m full, anyway.” “Something is burning.” „ „Stop complaining!.” „You know I hate touching raw meat.” and 495 more...
"There are plenty of reasons why I love HomEnglish. The most important advantage of the series is that the participants of each game absorb a vast amount of natural expressions without feeling at all that they are learning. This practice is beneficial as students usually avoid participating in a conversation because they don't know enough words to express their thoughts or feel too shy to speak in English. The HomEnglish game aims to create an opportunity to practice conversations about everyday topics we are familiar with and learn to give spontaneous answers. Students start by reading the phrases on the cards and will soon be able to use them in conversations without difficulty. As we know - repetition is the mother of knowledge and skill."
