I am glad you managed the kahoot game, finally! Although, not very happy with the results.

And, what's
more, 4 students still didn't do it. Let me know why? I think it is a good way of revising something while
playing at the same time. Since we are writing a grammar and vocabulary test next Thursday, today we will
practice all the grammatical part from units 5 and 6. Is this date ok?
Also, we will go on audio call so that you can read your answers from the workbook. It will be much faster
and we can discuss any ambiguities instantly. Can everybody participate?

Adrian's answer should have been written: 2 Calling someone a coward in front of their friends will probably lead to
a fight, as the person being insulted will want to keep their honour

Vocabulary
Practise guessing meaning from context by exploring some of the vocabulary that the speaker used in
the talk.
1. In the scene from Hamlet, we saw the root -monger, which means a broker, or someone who sells,
deals in or promotes something. What would you call:
a. someone who sells house and garden tools and other items made of metal (chemical symbol Fe)
b. someone who encourages people to focus on the differences between themselves and others,
based on race, religion, sexuality, etc
c. someone who encourages their group or country to use violence to achieve their aims
Is -monger always an insult?

2. Review this part of the talk relating to Romeo and Juliet and use the context to explain what the words
and phrases in bold mean.
Well, with any fisticuffs you know that there is some serious smack talk going on. And you are not
disappointed. In Act I Scene 1, right from the get-go we are shown the level of distrust and hatred the
members of the two families, the Capulets and Montagues...
3. Review the final part of the talk and use the context to explain what the words and phrases in bold
mean:
Later on in the scene, Tybalt, from the House of the Capulets, lays a good one on Benvolio from the
House of the Montagues. ... Both families hate each other, and this is just adding fuel to the fire. But
just how bad is this stinger? ... Tybalt basically calls out Benvolio, and in order to keep his honour,
Benvolio has to fight.

ANSWERS: 1a an ironmonger; 1b a hatemonger; 1c a warmonger. Words with "-monger" are not always insulting,
but they often are. 2 fisticuffs = fighting, or physical confrontation; smack talk = insults; right from the get-go =
from the beginning. 3 lays a good one on = insults; is adding fuel to the fire = is making things worse; stinger =
insulting remark; calls someone out = says something true but negative about someone
