- Hello, excuse me.
- Listen, everybody.

Activity 3
Read and learn it.

There are some expressions, you’ve found in the italicized sentences in the dialogue

When Siti wants to know Mrs. Wati thinks about her job, she says “What do you think about
your job?”. As a response, Mrs. Wati answers “I think my job is interesting.” The expression
tells what she thinks about her own job.
Another expression in dialogue 2, both “What about this pink dress?” and “What do you
think?” also have the same function, to ask what one’s thinks of something. When Tiwi says
“I think the color is too bright.” it means that She tells her view about the dress which is
chosen by Nuh.
The italicized sentences in the dialogue above are known as asking for and giving opinion
expressions. We use these expressions to tell what people think about something. Here are the
expressions of asking for and giving opinion.

Asking for opinion Giving opinion

How do you think of…? According to my opinion, it is ….
What is your opinion about…? In my opinion….

situations that probably happened in our daily life, such as meeting, wedding party, birthday

some of friends to come. Of course, we have to make an invitation for our guests. There will
be two answers for them who are invited by us, they may come or accept the invitation and
they may not come or decline or refuse the invitation.

If we want our friends or relatives come to our party, we have to invite them to come and

 Please do come to my party next Sunday?
 You will come to my birthday, won’t you?
 I was wondering if you’d like to come to dinner on Wednesday evening.

 Yes, certainly. I will come
 I would come to your party.
 With pleasure.
 Yes, I will do.
 Thanks for your invitation. I’d be delighted to.
 Yes, thanks. That would be great/wonderful.
To refuse invitation we can use :
 I want to but I am busy at the moment.
 Thank you but I am busy next Sunday.
 I am sorry I can’t.
