Fair play

Pronounce "should" and "shouldn't"

You shouldn’t talk while eating! You should stop shouting.


Murmur: Should you eat good food? You shouldn’t eat junk food!

Orders and advice

Observe: You mustn’t push other players. You should keep calm. You can’t run with the ball. You shouldn’t shout so loud.
