A simple test for language Functions ^^

[Crimson Soul]

First i would like 2 say that it's really cool to open up an English Forum , Thanks to the guys who came up with that idea to be putten here in montada ^^


Well , just like what the headline spoke about this thread , it's a simple language function test i just thought about , so that we can take a swiff look at the abilities of the members

^^




- on the street -






Fahed : You stepped on my foot !! , can't you look where you're walking you fool !



Naser : I'm terribly sorry , I was looking backwards



Fahed : What ?! are you a moron or something ?! how could you walk while looking backwards ?!



Naser : Someone was following me , anyway, how can i make it up ?



Fahed : Never mind that ! , you ought be careful next time ! or i'll tweak off your legs !



Naser : * Thinking that he can't take that guy on because he's a muscle man :09: * .. Ok , I'll do it -_-



Fahed : Now scram !!



1-Obligation :



2-Apology :



3- Asking for explanation :



4- Agreement :



5- Blame :

Okay... ummm...
*reads over to make sure he didn't miss anything :p *
I don't get it... what are we supposed to do exctly? :33:

EDIT: okay, I think understand a bit but i don't think the other members do... why don't you try explaining a little bit more about this test?

I understand every single word u said

but the problem is bro i dont get what u exactly want

do u want us to define the words u wrote??

[Crimson Soul]

Sorry if i didn't elaborate guys , I thought it was obvious ,


Well just like what the part in blue tells you ^^


U check the conversation and then find what co-works or defines with every point


like number 1 , Obligation , Find what's most suituable in the conversation for an obligation and copy and paste it

^^


U know this is the way how they put a part of an exam in kuwait ^^ , and it's pretty simple i know you don't have to say it guys :tongue2:

Loool

This test reminds of the old high school days :D

here goes nothin :tongue2:

1- Obligation : you ought be careful next time !

2- Apology : I'm terribly sorry

3- Asking for explanation : how could you walk while looking backwards ?!

4- Agreement : Ok , I'll do it

5- Blame : You stepped on my foot !! , can't you look where you're walking you fool

I'm sorry guys, but i'll have to disagree with you on some of what you wrote.....

"you ought to be careful next time"

This sentence sounds more like a warning or an adivce than it does as an obligation

the same thing goes for the blame sentence... it sounds more like scolding than blame

of course if we look to the words used, you are perfectly right, but the function it was used for was different therefore the language functions are different

My apologies for ruining the topic
