shopping list
A list is a series of names, items or figures.

A shopping list is made by writing down all the things you need when you go to the shops.


vegetables, potatoes, (for roasting, for mashing), peppers, capsicums, garlic, ginger
Often, but not always, a list is written with each word or item on a different line.

This is what Ian's shopping list might look like.

fruit, vegetables, fish, chicken, coffee, bread, cheese, milk
Amanda’s list might look like this.

When writing a list in a sentence, we separate each item with a comma. And usually, we would put the word and between the final 2 items.
She is going to buy fruit, vegetables, fish, chicken, coffee, bread, cheese and milk.

Or you can use numbers.
1.fruit
2.vegetables
3.fish
4.chicken
5.coffee
6.bread
