Sympathy Expression

Hello,  i’m back..

Meskipun badan capek minta ampun karena baru jadi tukang dadakan, aku mau ngepost materi lagi nih...

Berhubung ini blog bahasa inggris saya akan kembali menggunakan bahasa inggris...

Okay, now I want to share material about SYMPATHY EXPRESSION

Sympathy expression is an expression or feeling of pity and sorrow when we know and see someone or people are unlucky or have trouble and in bad condition. By expressing sympathy we want to show our concern or carefulness on other people’s condition.

 

After you reading the definition of sympathy expression, now you can go to next  section..

So, how to give sympathy expression to someone??Let me explain to you...

 if the person who got into trouble was staying close to us, we can show it directly to him.
but if the people who got into trouble was staying away from us, we can show it by using letters, or card by post also by short message service (SMS), e-mail, television, radio, and newspaper.

Several expressions of sympathy :

—  I’d like to express my deepest condolences

—  I’m sorry to hear that

—  I’m awfully sorry about…

—  Oh, how awful!

—  Oh, dear!

—  You must be very upset

—  Oh, what a shame

—  How pity you are!

—  How terrible / awful for you

easy right?? 

I will give examples of dialog that relate to this material.

Bryan:  Amy what’s wrong with you?

Amy: I think i’ve lost my motorbike’s key.

Bryan: How upsetting! Anyway, have you checked in your pocket?

Amy: I have , but it wasn’t there.

Bryan: Let me help you find it.

Amy:Thanks.

The sentence in bold in the dialog is used to express sympathy.
