GOOD//WELL: Exercise
- After linking verbs such as be, taste, sound, smell, look, seem, appear we use the adjective "good" as we are describing the subject of the sentence, not the action of the verb:
The concert last night wasn't very good.
If the food tastes good, children will eat it.
Your idea sounds good and if it works would be great.
It always smells good after the rain.
The house looks good outside.
- After the linking verbs "be", "feel", "look" we can also use "well" as an adjective meaning "healthy":
I am well. / I feel well. / I'm feeling well. (refers to physical state, health)
I am good. / I feel good. / I'm feeling good. (refers rather to emotional than physical state)
Jane didn't look well last night. (well = refers to heath)
The new dress looks really good on you. (good = refers to appearance)
Note: In the USA (conversational English) you can hear a lot of people answer "I'm good." in response to "How are you?" and it is very popular among young generation.
Bargins: gangas
Car park: (contable). there are a lot of/many car parks
Parking space(-s): zonas de aparcamiento
