Dear Teachers,
1. How do you want the beef? Well done?
Yes, and easy on the salt , please.
- What does �easy on the salt mean� here?
2. John! Can you help me cut this chicken?
At your service. How do you want me to cut it?
- What does �at your service� mean here?
3. All right next time lucnch is on you.
It�s a deal!
- What does �it�s a deal;� mean here?
Thanks a million to Teachers,
