Welcome
to Erica's English. Let's learn more
English today here in Australia.
In this video I describe
a variety of houses and apartments
in Manly in Sydney. I use
have and its conjugated form
has in most sentences.
You will learn a large variety of
vocabulary
related to describing the outside
of houses and apartments.
You can also study the vocabulary
