In this episode we’re going to go shopping. We’re going to buy a jacket or a coat, and discuss the vocabulary related to those items. Let’s get started.
Michael: Mom, I don’t need a new coat. I like my old trench coat. It’s comfortable, and I can use it as a raincoat and an overcoat. So what do I need a new coat for?
Lisa: If you’re going to visit your aunt in Maine, you’ll need something warmer than a trench coat. This parka is nice.
Michael: I’m not wearing a parka. If I’m not warm enough, I’ll wear my denim jacket under my trench coat.
Lisa: That’s ridiculous. You can’t wear a jacket and a coat each time you go outside. Look, this down coat will keep you nice and warm.
