Now, it’s your turn. In the second half of this video, I listed several examples of accessories: that is, all the extra things that people wear. I think that my favorite accessory is this watch. My wife bought it for me for Christmas five years ago. It’s a great watch, and it came from a great person. What is your favorite accessory, and why? Add your comment to the discussion below.

    hi
    What’s the difference between a dress shirt and a casual shirt ?
    Many thanks

    • http://www.ontargetenglish.com OnTargetEnglish

      That’s a good question. Dress shirts have buttons all the way down the front and are generally long-sleeved shirts. Usually, casual shirts, which might have short sleeves, have only a few buttons.

  • Gilson R. Moura

    #OnTargetEnglish #day6 Sure, my laptop.
