some other information about ourselves. When you meet new people,
sometimes you want to know some details about people you have just met.

Alia : “Nice to meet you too.”
Thinks about it
Important point
Sometimes different questions have similar answers. For example, “What is your

hobby?” and “What activity you love to do?” mean the same thing. It means there
are many ways to ask about the same information. It is important for you to know
so that you can use different phrases in the introduction.
Expressing Self Introduction
When you meet new people, or you are in a new class or school, you need to
introduce yourself. Introducing yourself to someone doesn’t mean you only tell your
name. You can also share more details about yourself.
To open your introduction, you can start with greeting such as, Hello or Hi. After
that, you have to tell your name.
• Hello, my name is Zaky.
• Hi, I am Anita.
In a more formal situation, you might want to say Let me introduce myself or I’d like
to introduce myself and tell your full name.
• Hello everyone! Let me introduce myself. My name is Zaky Triawan.
• Hi, I’d like to introduce myself. I am Anita Mariska.
You can also tell people more about yourself such as address and hobby. See the
examples below.
Name : ZakyTriawan
Age : 13
Job : Student
City : Jakarta
Hobby : Football
Hello, Let me introduce myself. My name is ZakyTriawan. You can call me Zaky. It
is spelled Z-A-K-Y. I am 13 years old. I am a student. I live in Jakarta. My hobby is
playing football. It is nice to meet you.
Name : Anita Mariska
Age : 12
Job : Student
City : Bandung
Hobby : Cycling
Hi, I am Anita. It’s A-N-I-T-A. I am 12, and I am a student. I come from Bandung. I

love cycling. It’s nice to meet you.
From the two examples above, we know that Zaky and Anita share the same
information about themselves but a different way. Zaky’s introduction is more
formal. Anita’s introduction is less formal (informal/ casual). When your teacher
asks you to introduce yourself in front of your new class, it means that the situation
is forma. You can use Zaky’s introduction. When you are between friends, you can
use Anita’s introduction because the situation is casual.
o To tell how old you are, you can say:
I am 13 years old.
I am 13.
o To tell about your job (or what you are doing now), you can say:
I am a student.
o To tell about where you live or your origin, you can say:
I live in Medan.
I come from Bandung.
I am from Jakarta.
o To tell about your favorite activity, you can say:
My hobby is reading.
I love fishing.
I really like to play basketball.
o To end your introduction, you can say:
It’s nice to meet you.
(I am) glad to know you.
Tips
Important points
• When introducing yourself, you can tell information such as where you live, what
your hobby is, and your age. There is no strict rule on how to introduce yourself, it
depends on the situation you are in and what the questions are.
• You can use contraction such as
My name is .… = My name’s .…

I am .… = I’m ....
It is nice to .… = It’s nice to .…
Time, Month, Day, Year, Numbering
Time: Date, Days, Month, Years
Description: students can define the time correctly. They know how to write date,
month and year in a formal and informal style. They also know some terms and
vocabularies about time in the daily conversation.
Lesson
In this lesson, students will learn about date, days, months and years. To express
date, days, months and years, people can use names of the day, names of the
month and the numbers of the year. Read and learn the following explanation:
1. Dates of the months In a month, there are many days. Sometimes, it is twenty
eight, thirty or thirty one days. Read and say:
Ordinal
number
Cardinal
number
Ordinal
number
Cardinal
number
1st First 11th Eleventh
2nd Second 12th Twelfth
3rd Third 13th Thirteenth
4th Fourth 14th Fourteenth
5th Fifth 15th Fifteenth
6th Sixth 16th Sixteenth
7th Seventh 17th Seventeenth
8th Eighth 18th Eighteenth
9th Nineth 19th Nineteenth
10th Tenth 20th Twentieth
The way of writing the date is specific. Although it looks like regular numbers,
expressing dates has some rules. Look and learn.
Example:
Date: 21st July
We say: the twenty first of July

Date: February 24th
We say: the twenty-fourth of February
1. Days of the week There are seven days in a week. Weekdays are Monday to
Friday. This is because people go to work, school and college from Monday to
Friday in the English speaking countries. Saturday and Sunday are week ends,
because the position is at the end of the week where people have a short break
(holiday) from work, school and college.

Important notes: notice that day of the week and weekdays are not same:
Days of the week are all seven days in a week from Monday to Sunday.
Weekdays are only five days from Monday to Friday.
Weekend is Saturday and Sunday.
1. Month of the year There are twelve months in a year. In writing the names of the
months, use capital letters at the beginning of the names.
Example: August; January, July
Month Season
January February March April May June
July August September October
November December
Winter Spring
Summer Autumn
Winter
Every four years, in the fourth year, the month of February has 29 days instead of
28. This year is called a “Leap year” and the 29th day of February is called a “Leap
day”. Years that can be divided by four are leap years (ex: 2000, 2008, 2016,
2020).
In Australia, because of its climate, the seasons are the opposite of seasons in
Europe. Winter in Australia is between June to August; Spring is between
September to November, Summer is between December to February and Autumn
is between March to May.

1. Years Years consist of numbers. However, the way you say the years is different
than the way you say price or numbers in math. Read and learn:
• 1984 : you say nineteen eighty four (19: nineteen; 84: eighty four)
• 2014 : you say two thousand and fourteen or twenty fourteen
1. Writing the date Formal
British Day-Month-Year American Month-Day-Year
The fifteenth of August, 2014 August the fifteenth,2014
15th March 2014 August 15th, 2014
Generally, the longer formats are more polite, it shows the respect for the reader.
You use formal way to write dates on printed items like wedding invitations,
graduation invitations, meeting or conference invitations, and other formal letters
(business letters, academic documents).
Informal
British Day-Month-Year American Month-Day-Year
15/8/2014 8/15/2014
Shorter formats are used in less formal situation, for example in a letter to a friend,
a memo, an invoice, and technical documents.
Important notes:
• Add ending ‘th’ to the numbers if you want to say and write about dates
• Pay attention to the following endings: 1st (first); 2nd (second); 3rd (third). These
are exceptions that do not use ending ‘th’.

Expressing Time, Month, Day, Year
Numbering
Here, we will learn about time. We use time when telling about hour (using clocks,
watches), date, month and year (using calendar).
1. It is about Clock
• O'clock is only used at the full hour.
Example: I wake up at six o'clock.(06.00)
• Past is used to say time after the hour until half past. From 1st minute until 29th
minute.
Example: She goes to school twenty past six in the morning.(06.20)
• To is used to say time before the hour. From 31st minute to 59th minute
Example: He arrives in the office at a quarter to eight.(07.45)
• Quarter is 15 minutes of an hour. At 15 minutes past the hour we can say
“Quarter past” or “fifteen”. At 15 minutes to the hour we can say “Quarter to” or
“forty-five”
Example: My class starts at quarter past seven. (7.15)
• Half is 30 minutes of an hour.We can say “half past” or “ thirty”
Example: I go home at half pas one. (1.30)
• We can also say the number of time.
Example: I have lunch at twelve thirty.(12.30)
Important notes: </span>
When speaking about time, in a day there are 24 hours, generally we use the 12-
hours clock. We use a.m. and p.m.
• a.m. stands for Ante Meridiem, the time between midnight and noon. 00:01 –
11:59
• p.m. stands for Post Meridian, afternoon 12:01 – 23:59
• Noon or midday is for 12.00 or 12 p.m.
• Midnight is for 24:00 or 12 a.m.

2. When speaking about different time in the day, we have morning, noon,
afternoon, evening and night. There are indicators for using the time expression.
• Morning is the time between sunrise and noon, sunrise-11.59.
• Afternoon is the time between noon and sunset, 12.01-sunset
• Evening is the time between sunset and night, sunset-darkness
• Night is the time after evening and before sunrise, it usually uses to greet before
sleep.
3. In telling about time, it needs preposition, it uses "in the" for morning, noon,
afternoon and evening. Ex: in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the evening.
But it is different for night,it uses "at". Ex: at night.
4. Telling date: day, month, year
• For single days or dates we use ON
Example: I will go to Bali on 7th of this month.
• For months we use IN
Example:
I was born in January
I was born on February 17th.
• For years we use IN.
Example:
This building will finish in 2015.
This restaurant is going to be opened on July 25th, 2015.
Preposition ON is used in the exact time with date, if there is only ‘months’ or
‘years’ we use IN.
