ഉദാഹരണങ്ങൾ.
We have no bread in the house. The servant must
fetch some. Please, Mamma, give me some bread and
butter. I am very hungry. You cannot get bread and
butter now; you must wait till breakfast. How beautiful
that butter is! Where do you buy your butter? We do
not buy it; we have two cows, you know, we make it
ourselves. Taste a piece of cheese; it seems to be good.
May I offer you a piece of this ham? Please, Madam, I
will take a small piece. There is no salt on the table.
I do not like oil with the salad. Here are different kinds
of meat; what will you take? I will take a slice of mutton,
if you please. Shall I not give you a piece of this veal
with it? No, thank you, I have quite enough. This pepper
is very sharp. I never take pepper and vinegar. I will
trouble you for a few more potatoes. I prefer rice and
curry to any other food.
