Daily Life - Describing Someone’s Face (C0261)

A:   Let’s play a game!

B:   Ok! How about Scrabble?

A:    No no, a friend of mine taught me this really fun

game. I’m going to describe someone’s face, and you guess who it is!

B:   Ok!

A:    Let’s see. He has a roman nose, bushy eyebrows

and dimples!

B:    Our cousin Pete! My turn! She has a pointy nose,

sunken eyes and a mole on her chin!

A:   Aunt Rose!  That mole is so huge!  Ok, my turn.

He has a crooked nose and full lips. He has quite a few freckles and an oval face.  Oh, he is also bald!

B:   Your future husband!

A:   Not funny.
