Well, sorry for being missing in action for a while!! Teaching got really busy since March this year, and now, I have gotten settled down a little. So, I felt there is a need to update my blog more frequently! Thousand apologies to my readers here.
Today, we are going to learn about some jargons describing cold. Since autumn is almost here, I guess it's very useful for many of us.
1. chilly (chill) : cool or uncomfortably cold, for example, when you are wearing your summer t-shirt in about 15-18 degrees Celcius.
Example sentences:
(1) Oh, it's chilly in the night, isn't it?
(2) I am feeling a bit chilly, can I borrow your jacket?
2. cooling (cool) : Comfortably cold, just nice, usually with some wind or flowing air.
Example sentences:

(2) It is cooling today. Autumn is almost here.
3. breeze: a current of air, a gush of wind
Example sentences:
