Guided speaking

Roleplay: doctor and patient. The patient describes 2 problems. The doctor asks questions and gives advice. Then swap roles.

  • Use: "What's the problem?"
  • Use: "I don't feel well."
  • Use: "I have a ___ache."
  • Use: "My ___ hurts."

Answer, then check.

Challenge

Speak

Now do it again with no notes. Speak for 60 seconds.

  • Talk about body parts & feelings without stopping.

Step 2 · Let's Practise

Common difficulties

The parts learners usually find hard in this lesson.

Pronunciation: Silent letters & tricky sounds

Chunks

Silent letters: 'knee' (silent k). 'stomach' = STUM-uk (ch = k). Plural: tooth → teeth, foot → feet.

stomach (STUM-uk)

knee (NEE)

tooth → teeth

foot → feet

headache (HED-ake)

Tricky ones — say it, then check

Recall

These are the parts beginners often get wrong.

Common difficulties

Practise

Slow down and choose carefully.

  1. I have a ___ throat.

  2. I ___ hot.

Answer, then check.

Step 3 · Let's Use It

I have + ache / I feel + adjective

Strengthen the grammar from this lesson — a different route into it.

Quick explanation

Understand

Pain: 'I have a' + ache (headache, toothache) or 'My ___ hurts'. Feelings: 'I feel' + tired / sick / fine / hot / cold.

  • I have a headache.
  • I have a sore throat.
  • My back hurts.

Notice the pattern

Notice

Read the sentences. What is the same in each one?

  • I have a headache.
  • I have a sore throat.
  • My back hurts.
  • I feel tired.

Choose the right form

Practise

One answer only. Take your time.

  1. I ___ a headache.

  2. I ___ tired today.

  3. My leg ___.

  4. She ___ feel well.

Answer, then check.

Each sentence has one wrong word. Write it correctly.
