How to make a cup of tea the British way

Watch the video about how to make "a proper cuppa" on the next slide. After watching, you have to make a word list. Write down at least 10 words you didn't know the meaning of yet.

Tip: Switch on the subtitles when you are watching the video. You can then also read what she is saying.

Word list

In the next slide, I would like you to type out (at least) 10 words or expressions (uitdrukkingen) you didn't know (the meaning of) yet.

Write down the English word and the Dutch translation of this word.

It should look like this:

to put the kettle on = de ketel opzetten / een drankje klaarmaken

proper = goed, juist, fatsoenlijk

etc....

Type in your word list below

That's it for today! Don't forget your homework for Monday, though! See next slide...
