AEE 2353: How to Call People Out on Their Quirks 如何指出别人的怪癖/借口
If you notice a friend has committed干坏事a life transcription, you want to point it out and tease them a bit, what can you say in English ?
structure: Have you know + none
eg, Have you know shame ?
means you're doing something bad and Don't you care that you're doing something bad? Don't you have any shame on what you're doing ? usually for lighter things not heavy serious things. This is a rhetorical question 为了陈述而提出的问题,不期望得到答案 a question that's not looking for an answer, It's more about a question than a statement.

Role play
