the worst it's so hot outside that you

people are so

you know hating the weather that they're

not going to the ice cream shop they're

just getting it delivered

i've never been to bangalore

yeah and i also and i have also never

yeah i i hope we do get to go to our

each other's places

someday

if you got the chance to go to delhi

would you

yes i would

you would okay

all right hamisha

tell me

your

thoughts about today's though

aged today's topic is age and my

thoughts are that um well age

sometimes in young when we're young

we feel very nice but when we are at all

it feels

like um

yeah we are old and knee pain is there

so it would be better if we

exercise in young so that we can be good

and healthy at

our old age suppose an old age i've

heard that there are many people who

complain about knee pain and so of knee

pain we should go cycling every day so

that we can have our knee pain would be

that now that

we would not have any

knee pain

and

at all age most of the people

have um

have to be bed ridden because of some

illness and all so that would also

prevent it

and uh

some people are

who who do who do exercises yoga and do

physical activity they seem like um

yeah

they seem like uh they are not seeming

old although they are old uh my name is

also seeming like that my mother has

grown up she also has uh

mandela's daughter still he doesn't feel

too old he can he walks long distances

but yeah his legs but yeah still his

legs pain and my father

helps it so we should also help all

people and

at the

old age sometimes it is

it is a very i feel at old ages i'm not

much good because we anyways we will not

be able to walk properly and most of the

time we will be

we will be attracted to your body will

become weak

so i don't feel

like becoming

old

i feel like to be young

right now to your way

and i'm mom do you like to be old

i

don't hate being old but yeah i don't

even love it either

i mean

i do enjoy

being able to do anything i want

but i

do remember how nice it was being a kid

like you don't really have to worry

about job work money

you know all those

stress so yeah being a kid is amazing

but when it comes to making your own

decisions becoming dependent you know

like

not being dependent becoming independent

at that point i feel yeah being old is

nice

but not that old like where i can't even

walk

i don't want to be that old

yeah

okay so uh

tell me how old do you want to live up

to

i would like to live up to

um

some

100 or 200 i don't know how many years i

would like i would like but

i just i don't my lifetime should be

that much so that i can help needy

people who are tight-fisted i want to

help the woman and if i help them i have

i educate i have i helped the

help environment and i

helped the tight-fisted people then i'm

okay after that i'm

agreed

to

be old at any time

okay

so uh do you think

as people get old they start becoming

less interested in friendships or going

out

no

no but yes

they i don't feel that because

my nanu is also

old but she seems young my grand father

you can say

but

still he

doesn't like to go out at all but yes he

loves to make friends and has hundreds

of friends hundreds wow

okay

near his ear

what what

he always keeps his phone to his ear

talking to them

oh okay all right

so he's uh always on his phone he's

always on calls and everything

yeah so i don't feel it is necessary

that um all people

don't like friendship and going out

but yeah some don't

some point yeah some some people just

give up really soon i suppose

all right so uh have you

have you seen any movie where the old

and the young

were connected

like you know the old helping the

young or the young helping the old any

movie any animated movie do you watch

animated movies

i don't like movies

you don't like movies

what do you do in your free time then

i don't have any particular thing to do

in free time

it depends

how i am feeling if i'm feeling happy

i'll play games and enjoy if i'm feeling

sad i'll just sit down and think about

it

you just sit and think about it okay i

wish i see

i see you are

already growing up

okay so

what uh you said when you're happy you

play games

what kind of games

sometimes i play games like hide and

seek but nowadays i like to play ghost

games which are really

um not really made um don't have uh

games where i don't know games like coco

but i know the games which i myself

invented

you invented games

okay what kind of games

some ghost games like my sister and

always make pillows and arrange them and

make a house out of them with the help

of a char pi and

oh you know

behind me

just so far so yeah

they make houses and

we will call it uh

house of a ghost

do you have siblings

you play with your siblings

yes i have siblings i have two siblings

and i also play with them

okay

they're elder to you or are they younger

they are younger

they're younger okay

do you boss them

do you get bossy with them

sometimes i do

or sometimes you do

and sometimes my sister gets gets

you know exhausted with what what she

doesn't want to do i tell what to do she

gets exhausted and

a little bit of cat fight occurs

a little bit of

cat fighters

that's fine

wow okay

so okay so has it ever happened

that you took advantage of being the

elder one

another one

not i don't remember such a in such an

event but yes i remember but

yeah but i think

but i think that being elder ism

always

the because when i was younger

then then people would mostly they would

mostly my mother and father would listen

to the

people older than me

such as if when first i was attending

tuition when i was younger

then this age which is

11 years old i was younger

perhaps 10 or 9 years old so i would

attend the tuition in my native place

and while attending tuition some all the

time uh

you know

sometimes my mother would not

listen to me and

i think because i am younger but now as

i have grown a little big she gives me

opinions that should we buy this or that

she says you have grown up so that is

good

yeah i think the opinion part is really

nice when someone asks for opinions like

should i do this should i do that

that that that's really joyful

all right uh harisha so do you want to

look through a few words of vocabulary

yes of course

yeah okay

whenever i'm sharing my screen

it gets muted all right hold on

i'll just

try some words with you okay so havisha

our first word is senile okay

senile

s-e-n-i-l-e

c9 any idea what that means

um

taking a long time

uh no so it's something related to being

old

when in old age

you start losing the ability to think

you call such people senile

okay you might have seen you know some

old people they start forgetting things

they're not very good at remembering it

or they are sometimes like they'll open

the fridge and they'll be like why did i

come here they'll forget right this

happens no so that is called being c9

okay

it's an adjective c9

right okay

so

next is shrivel

s-h-r-i-v-e-l

shrival

heard of that shrivel

it must be dried up and smaller yeah

yes so it's like when something dries

out we say it has shriveled

right for example

uh raisins

raisins are shriveled right when grapes

get shriveled they become raisins

right so okay try making a sentence with

shriveled

i would say that

the last time

when i kept fruits in the basket they

shriveled

okay all right that's good

okay so we can also use the word

shriveled for

old people why because their skin

shrivels right

you might have seen their skin becomes

all wrinkly

right so you can say shriveled there

also okay all right have a shot now let

me give you a few uh you know of my

feedback for you

you are super confident havisha i really

like the fact that you're so confident

when you speak you express so nicely you

use your hands

right so your hand gestures are really

good okay

so great job there have you sure and

other than that uh

you

can work on prepositions

okay

for example when you said uh exercise

like when we are in young

you said when we are in young

and when we are at old

right you were talking about this no

when we are in young we should exercise

you were saying this no so if you saying

if you say when we are in young that's

not correct right when we are young

when we are young we should exercise

there is no necessity of

in

right

or if you want to say

when we are dash

young age when we are like if you really

want to use a preposition you can say

when we are at our young age

then you'll use at

right what i'm saying is

make sure whichever preposition you're

using

you understand the meaning of it why am

i using it

right

uh all right so

there were times when you kept saying

and

so right and so

and so and so

right you you you connected sentences

using and so don't do that

okay

try and refrain from and so

okay

if you feel like i want to connect two

sentences just say and

right now you can also check out some

more conjunctions

to connect sentences

okay

all right so yeah

that is what i found avisha in in your

today's speech

i i think you're really good but if you

work on these small things you'll be

amazing

all right

so i wish that this session will auto

cut as you already know

right

so i would see you

know you soon your friend you're not

okay

and tell me what's wrong and why you

never said you felt that way and cause

you're trying to stay strong and fake

and smile until

it hurts too
