In the Hotel Dining-room

At what hour is dinner served in this hotel? I believe that the hotel clerk said from six to seven o'clock. Well, let us go down by the elevator. Tell the 6 waiter that we want a table near the window. Yes, the one that overlooks the street.

How do you wish to eat? I am accustomed to dine à la carte, for then I can order what I like best. But as this 7 is our first meal here, let us decide to eat it in the French style. You mean that we ought to eat à table d'hôte ? Look at the menu.

1 Repeat the personal pronoun. 2 Omit.

3 The noun comes after the verb. 4 devoir. 5 to the.

6 to the. 7 See Grammar Review, Section 84.
