Want To Join My Barbeque?

(1) Jessica: Listen
Hi, Mr. Petrov. It smells so good! What are you cooking?

"smells" is a stative verb. It's also a linking verb. A linking verb is like a be verb. "It smells so good" means "It is so good", but it talks about the smell.

(2) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Hello, [vocab word=neighbor]neighbor[/vocab]. I'm preparing a little family [vocab word=barbeque]barbeque[/vocab].
(3) Jessica: Listen
Oh, nice!
(4) Mr. Petrov: Listen
What are you doing now, Jessica?
(5) Jessica: Listen
I'm studying for a big test.
(6) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Studying? But, it's the long weekend!

A long weekend is Saturday, Sunday, and a holiday Monday.

(7) Jessica: Listen
I [vocab word=know]know[/vocab]. I know. But, I have a big test after the weekend.
(8) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Oh, I see. Is your mom making you a nice Labor Day dinner tonight?

"I see" means "I understand". Labor Day is a holiday in September.

(9) Jessica: Listen
My mom is [vocab word=visit]visiting[/vocab] grandma. So, she's not here this weekend.

"grandma" = "grandmother".

(10) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Is your dad cooking a nice dinner tonight, then?
(11) Jessica: Listen
No. He went with my mom.
(12) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Oh, okay. Did your sister go with your parents, too?
(13) Jessica: Listen
No. My sister is [vocab word=stay]staying[/vocab] at her friend's house. They are [vocab word=probably]probably[/vocab] playing "Pokémon Go" right now.

"stay at someone's house" means you go to his or her house and stay overnight. You come home the next day.

(14) Mr. Petrov: Listen
So, you are all alone tonight! Come and enjoy the barbeque with us!
(15) Jessica: Listen
Thanks for the offer. But, I wanted some [vocab word=quiet]quiet[/vocab] time tonight to study. I go to a very hard school, you know!
(16) Mr. Petrov: Listen
[vocab word=nonsense]Nonsense[/vocab]! Don't worry about the test. My kids are playing the Nintendo Switch in the [vocab word=living room]living room[/vocab]. Play with them. They really like you.
(17) Jessica: Listen
Well ...

This means "I don't know. I'm thinking..."

(18) Mr. Petrov: Listen
They are playing Animal Crossing, your favorite game.

"favorite" is an adjective, here.

(19) Jessica: Listen
Animal Crossing ... That IS my [vocab word=favorite]favorite[/vocab] ...

But, "favorite" is a noun, here.

(20) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Come on, only for an hour.

"hour" starts with a vowel sound. So, we say "an hour", NOT "a hour".

(21) Jessica: Listen
Well, hmm, okay. Only for an hour.
(22) Mr. Petrov: Listen
Good!
(23) Jessica: Listen
But, I'm bringing my [vocab word=textbook]textbook[/vocab] with me. Maybe, I'll play the game and read the book at the same time!
