  • Hello! I’m John Russell.
    Let’s continue our exploration of common words, phrases, expressions, and questions.
    In recent lessons, we examined a polite way to get another person’s attention: by saying “Excuse me.” We have also explored how to ask questions about location with the question “Where is....?”
    Now, we should practice using them in an everyday situation.
    The good news is that you have a native speaker to practice with.
    The bad news is that the native speaker is.... me.
    Imagine you are in a train station. Get the attention of the employee in a polite way. Ask about the location of track D5.
    Here is one possible way to deal with the situation.
    You could say:
    “Excuse me. Where is Track D5?”
    This combines a polite way to get attention as well as a specific question about a location.
    Let’s practice. Repeat after me slowly:
    “Excuse me. Where is Track D5?”
    Now let’s ask the question a little more quickly.
    “Excuse me. Where is Track D5?”
    Now imagine we need to ask about the restroom. We can use the same structure but use the noun phrase “the restroom” in place of “Track D5.”
    So you might ask,
    “Excuse me. Where is the restroom?”
    That’s all for today! Keep up the good work!
