English sentences so the question is how

do you actually talk about the weather

ready to find out if so this video is

for you welcome to speak English with

Tiffany I am teacher Tiffany and today I

am going to teach you how to talk about

the weather in English are you ready

well then let’s jump right in step

number one give a fact for this step you

will basically give the main idea or in

other words the actual weather condition

you want to start off by letting the

other person know what the weather is so

for example three different facts you

could give are it is thundering outside

it is raining outside or a storm is

coming soon step number two give a

description in this step you can start

to use more descriptive language for

example you can use English idioms or

English expressions your goal at this

step is to describe the weather

condition in more detail so for example

three different descriptions you could

give are it’s raining cats and dogs

which means it is raining extremely hard

outside the lightning shot across the

sky or the rain is coming down hard step

number three give a comparison

in the third step your goal is to

compare today’s weather or the weather

being discussed with another day’s

weather this will help the person

listening to you get a better

understanding of the current weather so

for example three different comparisons

you could give are it’s more humid than

yesterday it’s louder than the last

storm or the wind is a lot stronger

today step number four give your opinion

finally you will give your opinion this

step is important because by giving your

opinion you are actually inviting the

listener to also give his or her opinion

in other words this will lead to a

conversation so for example three

different ways you could give your

opinion are I don’t like thunderstorms

because the sound of thunder scares me I

love the sound of rain because it

usually puts me to sleep

or even though storms are loud they

never scare me so now you can talk about

the weather like this it is raining

outside I mean it is really raining cats

and dogs I think it is louder than the

last storm but I actually love the sound

of rain because it usually puts me to

sleep
