Speaking
Snakes frighten me.
Tony: Oh, Nancy, I am looking for you.
Nancy: Well, Sherlock Holmes, you’ve just found me. What’s up?
Tony: The Outdoor Club is going camping this weekend. Care to join us for an adventure?
Nancy: I could be interested, but will there be snakes? I hate snakes; they make me scared stiff.
Tony: Probably not. We’ll be in the mountains, and snakes don’t care for the cold. But there are different kinds of snakes. Poisonous ones like rattlers, and friendly ones like garter snakes. You aren’t afraid of the friendly snakes, are you?
Nancy: Well, if we encounter any snakes, you’ll see how loud I can scream.
Toney: Even if they’re friendly snakes?
Nancy: Yeah, all snakes make my hair stand on end.
