Could you please help me?
Hi, there

Could you please help me with two questions?

1) Let us say your son/wife/brother goes to work and takes the key to your house along with them. Then , when they(can I use they here? they= your wife, or your brother or your son) get home, they find you lockef out. ..

Could you say something like (iin not such a angry tone-- or should I say "In not so angry a tone???" or "In not such a angry tone"?)

"Now, you are always pulling that kind of antics/stunt on me, don't you?"?
Does it sound odd. What could you say??

2) Let us say someone says the follwing to you: "We should have lunch sometime, don't you think?"
Could you say "Sure. We just have to arrange that/make the arrangements"... Is it odd? What could I say?

Please

Thank you very much!

Answer

1)

If you are talking about your wife:
My wife went to work and took the key with her. Then, when She got home, She found out I've been locked out.

If you are talking about your son or your brother:
My brother(son) went to work and took the key with him. Then, when He got home, He found out I've been locked out.

Well, I would say someting like:
"Well, you might pay more attention next time, It's really annoying being locked out of my own home"

If it is really happening with you, you should just get a copy of the key hahaha

2)
You could answer with something like below:
"Sure, we can set this up!"

I guess this would be right. Since i'm not a native, someone could correct me if I directed you on the wrong way.

Thanks
