Learn English – Lesson 18 – The Thespian

Karen: I used to walk the boards, you know.

Polly: You were in the theatre?

Karen: Yes I was. That’s where I met David. He used to design the sets.

Polly: Did you used to perform in big shows?

Karen: Yes, I used to perform in a lot of musicals. I performed in Cats, Les Miserables, Phantom of the opera.

Polly: Wow, that must have been very exciting. I didn’t use to like the theatre. It has grown on me over the years. Do you miss it?

Karen: I used to miss it a lot. I don’t think about it very much now. Occasionally I get the urge but not very often.

Polly: I think I’d like to try my hand at a bit of acting. Let’s join a drama group!

Karen: I don’t know about that…

Polly: Come on! Let’s give it a go. Don’t take it too seriously! It is just a bit of fun.

Karen: Hmm. Let me think about it…

Polly: Let’s look for some drama groups. We can see if there is one better suited to your experience.

Karen: Okay, but let’s not get too excited. I haven’t decided for sure yet.

Polly: Of course but it will do no harm to look! Besides, you may be inspired!

Karen: Fine, we’ll take a look on the internet but I’m not promising anything. Don’t build up your hopes!

Polly: I’ll grab the local newspaper too.

GRAMMAR PRACTICE – IMPERATIVE FORMS

We use the imperative form to give orders. Constructing a phrase using the imperative is not difficult. It is simply the infinitive without to.

Examples:

Come here!

Be quiet

To have is often used to express wishes imperatively:

Examples:

Have a good day!

Have fun!

To form the negative imperative, all you have to do is add the particle don’t before the imperative:

Negative imperative = Don’t + infinitive without to

Examples:

Don’t come here!

Please don’t go!

LET’S

Let’s is the imperative form used to express something to be done in a group:

Imperative of us = let’s + infinitive without to

Examples:

Let’s dance!

Let’s sing a song!

The negative form, let’s not, is used to express clear denial of an action or suggestion:

Negative imperative of us = Let’s not + infinitive without to

Examples:

I’m tired. Let’s not dance.

People are sleeping. Let’s not play music
