English Vocabulary in Use Pre-Intermediate (Unit 100: Abbreviations)


Rewrite this note, making it more informal by using short forms where possible.

Luke

Olly had a mathematics maths examination this afternoon and then had to take his bicycle to the repair shop, so he’ll probably be a bit late home. You can watch television while you’re waiting for him, and please help yourself to anything in the refrigerator. If there’s a problem — for example, if Doctor Brown rings about the influenza vaccination, my telephone number is next to the photographs on the dining room table. I should be home myself by about five. Pam (Olly’s mum)
