Hi everyone! Thank you for tuning in to Time for English.

Summer's here. An exciting season for beer drinking.

So, let's learn some phrases that you can use when you enjoy drinking with friends.

Let's say. You're at a bar or a pub with a friend. The friend says, "How about a beer for starters?" A great idea. You agree. "Okay, I'll start with a beer".

Now, you finish your first drink. The friend asks you "How about another drink?" And you answer is "Why not?" Then she continues, "Would you like to move on to wine?" which means "Would you like some wine instead of beer?"

You can say yes to wine, but you may not be a wine drinker. If you want to drink more beer, then you can say, "I think I'll stick to beer".

I have given you half a dozen phrases, but let's just practice one phrase together. Please repeat after me:

I'll have a beer for starters.
