   Dressing for the Day

   Our clothing preferences usually depend on the weather. When we describe someone, we can also talk about what they like wearing.

   Weather Words

   • Sunny and warm: Great for outdoor games!
   • Rainy and cool: Time for an umbrella and a raincoat.
   • Snowy and freezing: Perfect for warm coats and gloves.

   Clothes and Preferences

   • In summer: “It is sunny today. I prefer wearing a blue T-shirt and shorts.”
   • In winter: “It is cold and rainy. Defne wears her yellow jacket and boots.”

   Remember: We use the verb wear for clothes we have on right now, and prefer when we choose something we like better.

   What Can We Do?

   We all have different hobbies and abilities. Some things we could not do in the past, but we can do them now!

   Abilities: Now and in the Past

   • Now (can): “I can ride a bicycle and play chess.”
   • In the past (could / couldn't): “Two years ago, I couldn't swim, but now I can swim very well.”

   Comparing Friends and Things

   When we share information about two people or items, we make comparisons by adding -er to short adjectives:

   • “Ahmet is taller than Can.”
   • “My brother is older than me.”
   • “Today is colder than yesterday.”
