English poems that mention parts of the house and furniture

I Never Want to Go to Bed
Kenn Nesbitt

I never want to go to bed.
I like to stay up late.
I"m bouncing off the bedroom walls
and, frankly, feeling great!

I"m dancing like a maniac
instead of counting sheep.
My mom says, "Time for bed."
My dad yells, "Get your butt to sleep!"

I'm not sure what my bottom
has to do with anything,
but that"s okay because I"d rather
jump around and sing.

I don't know what it was
that made me feel so wide awake.
Could it have been the Red Bull
and the double-chocolate cake?

I wonder if the seven cups
of coffee plus dessert
of Hershey bars and Skittles
are what left me this alert?

Whatever it turns out to be
that made me feel right
I hope I track it down
so I can stay up every... ZZZzzzzz

The Kitchen

A home is made of many rooms
To rest, to sleep, to shower,
To play, and read, and talk a lot,
Do hobbies by the hour.

But the kitchen, ah, the kitchen
Is a room that"s made of dreams
Of fantasies... created by
A love of cooking schemes.

To touch, to smell, to visualize
The wonders that occur...
And then to taste, and then to taste
Results of things that were.

At one time just "ingredients,"
In their places on the shelves
But become a wondrous mixture
As though transformed by elves.

Yes, a home is made of many rooms.
Each one has it's pleasures,
But the kitchen is the best of all
For finding hidden treasures.

Please remember – don"t forget...
Mabel Lucie Attwell

Please remember – Don’t forget!
Never leave the bathroom wet.
Nor leave the soap still in the water. -
That’s a thing we never ought"er! –
And as you"ve been so often told,
Never let the "hot" run "cold";
Nor leave the towels upon the floor.
Nor keep the bath an hour or more –
When other folks are wanting one;
Just don"t forget – it isn’t done! –
An" if you"d really do the things –
There's not the slightest need to sing!

The topic “Furniture” in English is one of the compulsory subjects when learning the language. It is not difficult to learn pieces of furniture in English, because this topic is very visual - students, as a rule, are happy to draw plans for their “ideal” rooms or houses, immediately applying new words in practical tasks.

Conventionally, for ease of learning, you can “divide the furniture into rooms.” Of course, some words will be common to several rooms, that is, furniture can be in both the living room and the bedroom, for example. But the more room for creativity. Our task is to cover as many words as possible, dividing them into semantic groups. In the signs we will include not only words on the topic of furniture in English with translation, but also the names of some items that, although not furniture, are familiar and necessary in a particular room.

Bedroom - bedroom

Living-room - living room

Study (den) - study

Kitchen - kitchen

Bathroom - bathroom

faucet (hot, cold water)

toilet roll/toilet paper

|ˈtɔɪlət roʊl|/|ˈtɔɪlət ˈpeɪpər|

toilet paper

bathroom cabinet

|ˈbæθruːm ˈkæbɪnət|

shelf in the bathroom

|ˈwɑːʃbeɪsn|

sink

|ˈtuːθbrʌʃ|

Toothbrush

|ˈtuːθpeɪst|

toothpaste

towel

|ˈtaʊəl reɪl|

towel hanger

bath mat

|ˈwɒʃɪŋ məʃiːn|

washing machine

|ˈlɔːndri ˈbæskɪt|

laundry basket

Hall - hallway

We got acquainted with the basic words on the topic of furniture in English. Now you can start learning new words. If your own home doesn't inspire you to put all of these words into practice, the Internet provides students with a variety of illustrated dictionaries.

Don't forget to say new words out loud. The combination of visual and auditory memory will serve to quickly memorize them. At the beginning of the article, plans for a “dream house” were mentioned. We recommend that you spend some time creating such a plan. The more detailed you draw the layout of the rooms, the more objects you “arrange” in them, the better the words will be remembered. Once the plan is ready, talk about the location of each item in each room relative to each other, window (window), wall (wall) and door (door). Use prepositions in sentences:

  • next to
  • opposite - opposite
  • to the left - to the left
  • to the right - to the right
  • behind - behind
  • between - between
  • in front - in front of

For example: There is a big mirror between the armchairs in the hall.- Between the chairs in the hallway there is a large mirror.
