How can...

I like that this song repeats "can."  I can't respect this man's situation.  Can you give him good advice?

Because and so

We talked about "so" as a conjunction (connecting word) today because the word "so" was on the goal form.

People also use "so" (as an adverb) before an adjective (describing word) to make it really strong.  

He is so handsome = He is very handsome.

So = very is common for speaking, but you should use "very" when you are writing.

(Please use "so" for writing on this blog, so I can see that you can do it correctly!)

Some people say, "so" before they change topics when they are speaking.

So as a connecting word:

Examples: because or so? (from LearnEnglishfeelgood.com)

Quiz: because vs. so (from a4esl.org)


SO as an adverb that means VERY
