English with Pictures: Number and Quantity

In addition to numbers, there are also a few different ways to express quantities in English. Some examples include:

• “A few” (used to indicate a small number)
• “Several” (used to indicate a few more than a few)
• “Many” (used to indicate a large number)
• “A lot of” (used to indicate a large number)
• “Most” (used to indicate the majority)
• “All” (used to indicate the entire quantity)

It’s important to note that the way we express numbers and quantities can vary depending on the context and the level of formality.

Idioms for Physical Feelings and States

In English, idioms are often used to express physical feelings and states. Here are a few examples of idioms that are commonly used to describe physical sensations:

• “Butterflies in your stomach” (used to describe feeling nervous or excited)
• “A pain in the neck” (used to describe something or someone that is annoying)
• “A breath of fresh air” (used to describe something or someone that is refreshing and new)
• “Feeling under the weather” (used to describe feeling ill)
• “Feeling on top of the world” (used to describe feeling extremely happy or successful)
• “Feeling run down” (used to describe feeling tired and rundown)
• “Feeling blue” (used to describe feeling sad)
• “Feeling like a million bucks” (used to describe feeling very good)
• “Feeling green” (used to describe feeling sick or nauseous)
• “Feeling on edge” (used to describe feeling anxious or stressed)

Telling the Time in English

Telling the time in English can be done in a few different ways. Here are a few examples:

• Using cardinal numbers: “It’s four o’clock.” “It’s seven thirty.”
• Using ordinal numbers: “It’s the third of March.” “It’s the seventh of the month.”
• Using “o’clock”: “It’s four o’clock.” “It’s half past three.”
• Using “am” or “pm”: “It’s 4:00 am.” “It’s 4:00 pm.”

When using cardinal numbers to tell time, it’s important to note that hours are typically written as numerals and minutes are typically written as two digits (e.g. “4:05”). When telling time using “o’clock” it’s important to note that we do not use the “o'” for the hour, for example, “It’s four o’clock” instead of “It’s four o’clock o’clock”

Additionally, it’s common to use the phrase “in the morning” to refer to the time from midnight to noon, and “in the afternoon” or “in the evening” to refer to the time from noon to midnight.

It’s also important to note that when you are asking the time, you would say “What time is it?” or “Can you tell me the time, please?”
