1.17 ASKING FOR DIRECTIONS
How do you prepare for traveling to a new location? You ask someone or consult Google Maps. When asking someone,
be nice. Begin by saying ‘excuse me’ or greeting them.
As shown in the list below, specify your destination (e.g., Central School, Aya Nagar, Railway Station, Laxmi Nagar Post
Office, Admission Office within a building) when asking for directions.
Ð ÐExcuse me, can you please tell me the way to the Central Bank?
Ð ÐExcuse me, which way is the Sector 12, Metro Station?
Ð ÐExcuse me, do you know the way to the National Museum?
Ð ÐCan you tell me the directions for reaching your home from the Model Town?
Typically, the other person will specify the direction, distance, and locations for taking turns. If someone asks for
instructions, follow the same procedure. Check your understanding of the directions by repeating them. Before departing,
remember to express gratitude to those who helped you.
Directions using Landmarks
When giving directions, it's helpful to include well-known sights such as bus stops, lakes, bridges, large workplaces, and
schools. To provide instructions based on well-known locations, we employ 'prepositions'. (Tip: Prepositions indicate
position). In this session, we will focus on using position terms to indicate time, rather than other prepositions. Some of
these words include—on, near to, opposite, and in front of.
