Ask for clarification Do we always use the -ing form with this verb? Ask for repetition Could you repeat that, please? Ask for permission Can I go and get some more paper, please? Express doubt I'm not sure I understand the task. Apologise I'm sorry I'm late. Explain My bus didn't arrive. I know the word but I don't know what it means in this sentence. |

Ask each other what they think Do you think we should put the house here? Say what they think I don't think that's right. We need a different adjective. Agree and Disagree Yes, I think that right. I'm not sure that's right. That's wrong, I think. Encourage and motivate Right, let's start. This is not too difficult. |
