A summer get-together with friends |
Would you like to come over?
Unfortunately, the website for the invitations doesn't seem to be working on some computers. Please leave a comment below to let me know if you were able to do the exercises.
Here are some useful expressions you can use for making, accepting and refusing invitations. I copied these from the lists you made in class, and I added a few more.
Making Invitations
- We're having a few people over. We'd like you to join us.
- I was wondering if you'd like to come over.
- We're holding a small get-together. Would you like to come?
- Would you like to come over?
- I'd like to invite you to my house.
- I hope you can make it.
- I'd like to invite you over for coffee.
Accepting Invitations
- We'd love to come.
- That's really nice. I'm sure my husband would like that. We'd love to come.
- I appreciate the invitation. What can I bring?
- That sounds great! Thanks for inviting me.
- I'm looking forward to it.
- Can I bring anything?
- What time should I be there?
- Let me know if I can bring anything.
Declining Invitations
- Sorry, I'd love to come, but I'm busy.
- I'd love to come, but I can't make it.
- I'd like to, but I have a meeting that day.
- I wish I could come, but I have an appointment.
- Thanks for thinking of me, but I'm afraid I have other plans that day.
Hesitating
- Thanks, but I have to check my calendar. Can I get back to you?
- I'm not sure what my plans are. Can I let you know?
