Do you know how to make a promise in English? Hi, my name is Alisha and this is 3-Step English by EnglishClass101.com. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use intensifiers to describe past experiences through a quick conversation. Let's look at the dialogue. Wow, it's been such a long day. We've looked at so many locations for the new gym. What did you think about the last one? The rent was so cheap.

It was quite a good price, but it was extremely small. I agree, it was too small. What about the first one we saw? That one was big enough, but the location was so far. Yes, it was terribly far away. Well, how did you feel about the other one? The location was really convenient, but it was much too expensive. Jerry, you're unbelievably picky. Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. Let's go over the dialogue again, more slowly this time.

Wow, it's been such a long day. We've looked at so many locations for the new gin. What did you think about the last one? The rent was so cheap. It was quite a good price, but it was extremely small. I agree. It was too small. What about the first one we saw? That one was big enough, but the location was so far.

Yes, it was terribly far away. Well, how did you feel about the other one? The location was really convenient, but it was much too expensive. Jerry, you're unbelievably picky. Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. Let's focus on the key part of the conversation. The location was really convenient, but it was much too expensive.

The character is using the intensifiers "really" and "much too" to communicate a stronger meaning or more emotional context to a word.
