- Um, it's a kind of fruit. It's yellow and long.
- It's an adjective and it’s the opposite of 'clean'.
- It's like a clock, but you wear it on your arm.

Sian
Good idea! So the first person used 'it's a kind of'. You can use this phrase to talk about the category of the thing you are describing. So, for a banana, we can say 'it's a kind of fruit’. And for 'a cat' we can say 'it's a kind of animal'.
Bolam

λλ€. μ¬κΈ°μ kind λμ typeμ μΈ μλ μκ² μ£ ? So we can also say 'it's a type of', can't we?

That's right. So we can also say ‘it's a type of fruit'.

And it’s the opposite of 'clean'.
Sian
Yes, 'it's the opposite of…' So this is a useful way to describe an adjective, if you know its opposite.

It's like a clock.
Sian
So we can use the phrase 'it's like' plus the thing to say that something is similar to something else. You can also use 'it's similar to'.
Let's practise the pronunciation. Repeat after me.
It's like a clock.
It's similar to a clock.
