HOT & COLD words / English Addict - 49 / LIVE Lesson/ Sunday 8th March 2020 / Play the Prefix Quiz!

ooh look at that oh what a lovely view from my window today the sun is out even

though it was raining about 45 minutes ago however everything is looking rather

nice outside oh hello there welcome here we go again it's another english addict

livestream coming to you from the birthplace of the english language which

just happens to be england

I know I know what you're going to say mr. Duncan mr. Duncan

you are late I'm afraid so yes I am a little bit late today very busy today

lots of things going on as usual however we have had a little problem here

because a couple of days ago a couple of days ago him can you see him behind me

him this guy he felt unwell he was feeling a little feverish and as you can

probably imagine I was feeling rather worried and so was Steve

he was also feeling slightly worried so he has had a little bit of a fever for

the past two days and I suppose I don't have to say any more than I was a little

bit worried for a moment or two because I wasn't sure if mr. Steve was coming

down with something that you may have heard of recently in the news however

today he is feeling a little better so I'm hoping we will be able to tempt mr.

Steve on to the live stream and now I have something here for mr. Steve can

you see it I hope so that is a jaffa cake however this

particular jaffa cake has lost its little orange abit in the middle so the

little soft piece of orange in the middle has gone and that's because I ate

it so I have eaten the middle of this jaffa cake however what is left I've

decided to let mr. Steve have so he can have that I'm hoping that I will be able

to tempt mr. Steve into the studio with what is left

the remote remnants or what remains of this Jaffa Cake so we will see what

happens a few moments of worry concern

so mr. Steve had a temperature it was a hundred and ten degrees so he was

feeling rather unwell and as you can probably imagine I was slightly

concerned I thought well that would be typical wouldn't it it would be just so

typical of mr. Steve but it would appear that already he is getting well so I

don't think it was anything serious I don't think what mr. Steve had was well

you know what it wasn't that I don't think it was this particular thing so

mr. Steve is feeling much better he's not a hundred percent well but he's much

better so thank you very much for your concern because this morning when I

mentioned it on Facebook I had some messages making sure that mr. Steve was

okay he is all right hopefully he will be with us a little bit later on

I am hoping I will be able to tempt him into the studio hello everyone guess

what we are here once again yes we have made it all the way through to the end

of the weekend because it is Sunday

it is of course a special day it is International Women's Day the day for

women can I say hello to all the women all the ladies all the gals all of the

lasses watching out there at the moment it's nice to see you here today as you

may have noticed I am NOT a woman not yet anyway so here we go again

nice to see so many people already here on the live chat thank you very much for

joining me today it is mr. Duncan I am still coronavirus

free unfortunately so is mr. Steve even though a couple of days ago I wasn't

sure Steve was feeling a little under the weather so that's it now what's

happening now is everyone starts to panic as soon as they feel a little

unwell so many people at the moment are catching colds and also flu so not all

of the illnesses that are occurring at the moment are corona virus so some

people are just getting their usual winter cold

some people are catching flu and some people are just feeling blue because

it's wintertime however not for much longer because yes spring is on its way

spring is coming and there it is right now the view from my studio window look

at that it is rather windy at the moment and there we are looking across towards

Wales you can see a large mountain a large hill in the distance Brighton Hill

that is the name of that hill Brydon Hill and it is

just as you go into Wales so that particular Hill in the distance is

actually in Wales even though I am talking to you at the moment from lovely

sunny England and yes it is sunny at the moment it is it's actually sunny outside

even though we had a lot of rain earlier it is Sunday I hope you've had a good

weekend my weekend has been very strange because we had lots of plans yesterday

we were supposed to go to lemming Tain's spa so mr. Steve could have one of his

singing practices and then afterwards we were going to see my mother who is still

being taken care of many miles away from where I live so we were going to do both

of these things yesterday however mr. Steve was not feeling very well so we

didn't do it we had to cancel those plans unfortunately it's not very nice

is it so we had a lovely day in lemming Tain's

bah I'm pretty sure the subtitles will get that wrong however the place I went

to yesterday or didn't go to yesterday because of Steve's illness we should

have gone to Lymington spa by the way if you want to see the subtitles

I know sometimes YouTube gets the subtitles wrong sometimes they make a

lot of mistakes with the subtitles but you can watch captions you can have

captions or subtitles if you press C on your keyboard mmm

so that is a bit of information thank you very much for YouTube for letting me

do that and also you can catch me every Sunday Wednesday Friday 2:00 p.m. UK

time and of course if you like what you see you are more than welcome to like

and subscribe like and subscribe if you like what you see

tell a friend tell your neighbor tell everyone if you don't like it you can

tell me so feel free to like and subscribe as well so hopefully mr. Steve

will be here in a few moments I'm really hoping so if not I really don't know

what I'm going to do however I have some things planned we are looking at words

that can be used to describe being hot and feeling cold

so something hot something cold there are many words you can use in English

and also quite a few phrases idioms as well that you can use so we might have a

look at those today we also have a little game to play we have the prefix

game so I'm going to show you some prefixes some words or some things that

come before a word to change its definition or the way it is used so we

are going to look at some prefixes and also we are going to test your knowledge

of those particular prefixes so a prefix is something that comes before the

actual word you are expressing so quite often prefixes have a little bit of

magic contained within them and also there is

suffix as well so when we say suffix that means something that comes at the

end of a word hello to everybody oh hello - black gotcha hello to you

that is your very interesting name on my live chat and guess what you are also

first on today's live chat as well

so to all the ladies out there to all my honeys what are you doing today to

celebrate International Women's Day day of the women or day of the woman so what

are you doing today to celebrate it I don't know what you're doing because I'm

not there I'm here unfortunately so I can't be with you I have looked on my

youtube channel by the way and now can you believe it I almost have 50% women

watching my youtube videos and also my live streams and 50% men so actually

it's virtually virtually almost half and half so I think that's quite interesting

so 50% women 50% men watch my live lessons and also my recorded lessons as

well which is nice to know hello also to Jimmy who says my hands have been washed

yes of course that is the advice they are giving to everyone if you want to

protect yourself from the coronavirus or in fact any virus so it is always a good

idea to keep your hands clean anyway I think so so that is very good advice

well done Jimmy nice to see nice to hear that you are taking care of your health

as I hope everyone is hello Emily Noah also Tomic hello Tomic nice to see you

here today also Vitas RHS if you want to talk about

coronavirus you can if you want to mention it what is happening where you

are here in the UK I suppose really here in the UK we've been rather lucky we

have been taking some precautions and also people are being checked and

monitored and some people are now in isolation

they are being kept away from other people some people have been placed in

special facilities special hospitals away from other people so the cases are

coronavirus here in the UK I think it's around about 206 I think at the moment

we have around 206 cases of corona virus here in the UK sadly I think we've had

two two fatalities sadly so two people sadly have died however other countries

are quite badly affected at the moment including Italy apparently a quarter one

quarter of the whole of Italy the whole population is now in quarantine or some

form of isolation because of the corona virus so it would appear that Italy is

one of the countries that has been affected quite badly also South Korea as

well and there is a side effect from the corona virus now I'm not talking about

people's health but I'm talking about their behavior did you see I'm not sure

if you saw this on the internet I'm not going to show you the video but here are

a couple of pictures from a video that is going around on the internet right

now and

in this photograph there are two women or a group of women fighting over toilet

paper that's exactly what they're doing I don't know if you've seen this but

these women are actually fighting over toilet paper and this is something that

occurred I think it was in Sydney Australia I think it was yesterday or

the day before yesterday and this is a video that has gone viral now lots of

people for some reason I don't know why I still don't know why but a lot of

people have gone crazy over toilet paper people are now fighting each other in

the supermarket's to get hold of toilet paper I do not

know why because of course there are many alternatives there are many other

things you can do many other ways of dealing with that everyday problem so

there there are alternatives you don't have to use toilet paper you can use

something else you can use a little bit of kitchen roll kitchen paper

so kitchen paper is normally larger and also it's normally thicker so in some

cases maybe kitchen roll or kitchen paper which tends to be very thick and

absorbent might be a good idea so maybe you could use that instead

or maybe newspaper I remember many years ago this is very embarrassing I'm sure

if any of my family members are watching at the moment they will be so

embarrassed many years ago when I lived at home there were times when we didn't

have toilet paper in the house and we used to use newspaper I'm not

joking I wish I was so maybe you could use newspaper instead of toilet paper so

that might be a good alternative a good substitute instead of this so have you

been going out to buy your toilet paper have you at all been out to buy toilet

paper now in my house at the moment I must say

in the house I have plenty of toilet paper to be honest so here at the moment

you can see a roll of toilet paper now some of these rolls of toilet paper I'm

actually going to keep somewhere safe because maybe in three or four weeks

time this toilet paper might be worth a lot of money and perhaps I will be able

to sell this roll of toilet paper on ebay so perhaps I could sell this for

maybe 50 pounds hundred pounds maybe even a thousand pounds who knows so I

will be keeping this roll of toilet paper in a very safe place just in case

it becomes very valuable over the next few weeks I'm going to be served rich mm

satury know is here Jamelia is here as well hopefully mr. Steve will be here as

I mentioned earlier he is feeling a little under the weather at the moment I

wonder if mr. Steve has a problem with going to the toilet I wonder what do you

think

that is disgusting I think mr. Steve you might need some of

this to help you on your way hello to everybody

hello also to Menace Kay hello to you you made me laugh out loud because you

said that you could use newspaper instead of toilet paper there are many

things you could use you could also do what animals do you could you could do

it on the grass so maybe you could clean yourself on the grass you could sit on

the grass and then just move yourself along the grass to clean yourself

especially in the morning when the grass is nice and wet so maybe you could do

that so there are a lot of alternatives a lot of substitutes to toilet paper I'm

pretty sure of it so what about you have you been panic

buying Eric says in times of war we would use newspaper as toilet paper it's

true have you ever had toilet paper that is very hard and very and pleasant to

use there is a certain type of toilet paper that is very smooth and it is not

absorbent do you remember that I think the name was aisel so in this country we

used to have toilet paper many years ago that was very smooth and slippery and it

was horrible and it was called easel I wonder if you have it where you are you

never see it anymore for some reason another thing I've

noticed many years ago when I was growing up we used to have toilet paper

that came in many colors but nowadays you never see colored toilet paper why

is that we used to have blue toilet paper and

red toilet paper pink toilet paper but nowadays we just have white toilet paper

why do we only have white toilet paper I remember many years ago there used to be

lots of colors lots of lovely colors of toilet paper but nowadays it's only

white why is that I have no idea hello Sylvia hello Francesco hello -

Miriam nice to see you here today lots of people joining in with the live chat

yes it's mr. Duncan for those wondering who is that strange man on my computer

screen at the moment my name is Duncan I teach English on YouTube and I've been

doing it for ever such a long time can you guess how long I've been doing this

for 14 years this year it will be my 14th year on YouTube so my English

Channel this channel you are watching now is almost as old as YouTube itself

we are going to have a look at one of my full English lessons in a couple of

moments time so what about you do you have any alternative to toilet paper yes

Theo trap Theo Theo door rat you have a very good idea you could just use water

and soap so maybe if you have one of those clever clever showers that you can

take off and use you could use that and of course in certain countries they have

something called a B day I think B days are incredible maybe one of the best

inventions ever created the B day so you can sit on the toilet and a little

ripple of water will come up and it will clean you and sometimes it feels quite

nice as well always puts a smile on my face

whenever I use a B day so yes I suppose there are men

alternatives to toilet paper I can't believe I've spent the last 15 minutes

talking about toilet paper however it is in the news

lots of people getting very angry because they can't get their toilet

paper so what about you are you stockpiling Christina says the

prices of disinfectant products cleaning products to keep your hands and maybe

your surfaces in your kitchen clean and virus free they are becoming very

expensive I suppose that will happen so if something becomes short supply if

something is is hard to get quite often you will find that the price will go up

so you might find the that in the future the price of toilet paper might go up if

people keep panicking and buying toilet paper so really there's no need to go

crazy and panic by because I'm pretty sure all the supermarket's will have

lots of stock to sell I'm pretty sure of it

anna says mr. Duncan are you investing money in toilet paper I tell you

something if I was the type of person who invests my money in stocks and

shares I tell you now I would be investing my money into anything

connected with antibacterial soap or hand wash like this this sort of thing

or toilet paper so if you are a person who likes to buy shares in companies I

would say one of the best places to go at the moment one of the best things to

buy shares in would be toilet paper and anything any sanitizing product so any

product that will clean things something that sanitizes it cleans it makes things

virus three we are looking at prefixes a

little bit later on and also words to do with hot and cold mr. Steve hopefully

will be here soon however first of all we are going to have a look at one of my

super duper English lessons that are now available on my youtube channel and also

my website as well this is an excerpt taken from full English number thirteen

and then we will be back hopefully with mr. Steve can you see what I'm holding

here it's something sweet and very easy to make this is meringue meringue is a

type of sweet food made by mixing well beaten egg whites and sugar together and

then baking it until it becomes crisp on the outside a meringue can be eaten on

its own or used as a topping for desserts especially pies the center of

meringue tends to be soft and sticky just the way I like it

this particular has been colored with strawberry juice

and smothered in white chocolate which means that I'm now in confectionary

heaven by the way the word confectionery is another word for sweet things such as

chocolate and candy they are both types of confectionery

it's time to take a peek at another buzz word a buzz word is a word or phrase

that is popular during a certain period or is used frequently today's buzz word

is radical the word radical as an adjective means something relating to or

affecting the fundamental nature of something to change something from its

original form to something more extreme or profound

might be described as being radical forming an inherent and fundamental part

or nature of someone or something some radical differences exist between

those who follow the news and those who don't a medical procedure that will be

completely curative is radical something characterized as being a departure from

the traditional it may in some instances prove to be innovative or progressive a

radical approach a radical alternative a complete social or political reform

supporting an extreme idea or concept might be described as radical as

American slang it is sometimes used to express very good or excellent although

this use is now seen by many as out-of-date and old-fashioned

as a noun the word radical is a person who advocates others to push for a

complete change or move away from the current methods of thinking radicalism

is the noun that names the act of being radical to convey radical ideas to

others is radicalization to radicalize someone is to persuade them to follow a

way of thinking that to others might seem unacceptable or extreme then there

is radicalization which is the noun that names the action of radicalizing someone

like shoes and socks with shorts oh what a fashion faux pas they appear

so odd together when looked at from afar shorts with black shoes and socks should

never ever be seen even if you squint the site is still quite obscene black

shoes and socks with shorts please be off and make it quick as those black

shoes socks with shorts are making me feel quite sick

do you ever wish something under the carpet no I'm not talking about doing

the housework in this case I'm talking about trying to forget something or to

pretend that something does not exist the idiom brush under the carpet means

that you would rather forget that something bad unpleasant or difficult to

deal with has occurred or will occur you try to brush the bad thing under the

carpet you try to make it go away by consciously denying it you want the

thing to go away so you try to brush it under the carpet there is no point in

you trying to brush this under the carpet let's just brush all this bad

news under the carpet shall we I hope you enjoyed that yes that was an excerpt

from one of my full English lessons and yes they are available on my youtube

channel along with all of my live stream recordings yes it's all there for you to

watch and enjoy

I hope you're feeling good today everything is not too bad to be honest

everything is ok very nice outside by the way the weather looking good today I

hope where you are the weather is nice as well so enough of that it is time to

tempt mr. Steve whence more now can I just say Steve has not been very well

over the past couple of days unfortunately he has been under the

weather he's being he's been feeling a little off-color

so two days ago Steve had a bit of a fever and I must be honest with you and

I was rather worried that he might have something serious you know what I mean

I'm sure you know what I mean however fortunately it would appear that Steve

is feeling much better however we have to make sure that he is okay so what I'm

going to do now as usual on a Sunday I am going to try and tempt mr. Steve into

the studio what I have to do is lure him I love that word by the way

so I need to use something to get mr. Steve to come in and guess what I happen

to have something here unfortunately the thing I have is not complete so this is

a jaffa cake do you have jaffa cakes where you are unfortunately someone has

taken the orange piece a little bit of orange out of the middle it's gone I

wonder who could have done that maybe me perhaps who knows so it's time to tempt

mr. Steve with a little piece of jaffa cake even though it is now missing

the orange bit in the middle which between you and me is the best part of a

jaffa cake I must be honest with you here we go then so everyone be quiet

because mr. Steve is very timid he is easily disturbed let's face it he's

disturbed enough already so everyone wait as we tempt mr. Steve

into the studio

you are so ungrateful mr. Steve what what you are so ungrateful I left I left

something out for Steve to eat and he threw it away did you see that that why

did you throw it away the orange was missing so I'm not gonna

eat a jabber cake with the orange bit missing I mean you tried to tempt me on

but then it's rubbish hello everybody no I'm no I'm not sick I'm not sick at

all no not now however we have taken some precautions I forgot to put my

shoes on mister don't raise me up a bit so it's okay I can't do anything now I

can't lift you up Steve so we have we have our special sign Steve look at the

camera there it is so we have a special sign here telling people not to touch

mr. Steve because he's been unwell you had a fever don't touch my toilet paper

this is going to be valuable one day I'm going to keep this safe just let me have

one sheet mr. Duncan just one okay leave my toilet paper alone I'm not having

that on for the entire lesson Annoying Steve is already complaining is only

just being here for a minute just one minute and he's already complaining

about things so you were you were unwell well suddenly Friday night I felt a

little unwell yes Steve felt a little queer I thought I thought I'm coming

down with something coming down with something that's what we say here quite

commonly if you think you've you've got a Bergen infection I think I'm coming

down with something it's what we commonly say meaning I've got a cold

coming probably it's unusual you are slowly becoming ill yes that's it coming

down with something a fever something like that well in fact I I got a bit of

a little bit of a sore throat and a temperature yeah I was shocked because

of all the health regime but I have last thing I expected was to defeat

Hills anyway Steve has quite a strict health routine

he takes exercise regularly but also he he is one of those people who uses a lot

of medicine or a lot of things to keep the bugs away however it didn't work on

Friday because Steve had a little bit of a fever and we were worried weren't we

yeah but we were worried yes I was cuz you know what yes miss out there because

let me just show you the culprit here it is on the screen now just above Steve's

head there it is

yes and they keep showing this what we shouldn't laugh because it's actually

quite serious it is serious but I think I think you have to you have to make

some fun of it because sometimes during bad periods of time you have to you have

to somehow smile even even in the face of adversity I think so so okay it's

it's going now keep that away from me mr. Duncan any Italians watching is

right now a quarter of the population are in quarantine at the moment to

mention that about 20 minutes ago yes it's incredible it's um anyone from

Italy watching now please tell us what it's like it must be it must be quite

scary well I'm imagine very frightening I know

that you always like to hear from people who are affected by things I have had

some messages this morning from southern Italy apparently a lot of people now are

being told to stay at home or stay isolated Eve even if there's nothing

wrong with them in Italy so in Italy a lot of people have been affected even

even not directly so indirectly that's a good prefix because they were on to stop

it spreading obviously I like that prefix anyway I had this temperature and

then the next morning is it gone yes and I thought perfectly alright so I think

my health regime fought off whatever it was well I'm hoping it's not

you know coronavirus well I don't think it is because you're okay now well yes

that's true I mean if you're ill in two weeks time we'll go and get a test I

mean we haven't really got that many cake we haven't had any cases near us so

it can't be it can't be I think it's just I was at choir on Monday nights

higher I go to choir on Monday night and somebody next to me right next to me had

a cold a bad cold and they said they didn't go they weren't there last week

rehearsal and I think they gave it to me and that's what I've got hmm but you

know I'm fighting it off and I don't think I still feel a bit under anybody

let's not go on about it mister don't know I've got all my health tablets yeah

that I take so you do have things that you like to take not necessarily

medicine so this isn't medicine that Steve takes it's just things that are

supposed to be healthy or to help you so we think of things like vitamins vitamin

C and of course at this time of year in the UK a lot of people are lacking

vitamin D as well because that comes from light and here in the UK we don't

get much sunlight in winter come to think of it we don't get much sunlight

in summer I think I don't think we saw the sudden for about a month this with

all the rain and wind that we've been having but yes

vitamin D a lot of people lack vitamin D hmm particularly as we're also being

told not to go in the Sun even when it is out because we might get skin cancer

so you you know some people do think it's a good idea to supplement with

vitamin D that's a good word so you take supplements so a supplement is something

that can replace a thing that you might be lacking or something you might be

without so you take supplements and there are many different types of

supplements so you think of vitamins vitamin tablets are a type of supplement

yes you add something in that you think could be missing from your diet mr.

Duncan I've just got to disappear for two seconds

okay and I should be back okay oh okay that was that's interesting what what do

I do now do I just stand here shall I stand here and just wait

I wasn't expecting mr. Steve to suddenly disappear I know what the problem is

Steve unfortunately on this camera Steve looks very small oh there he is he's

back I'm back there we go okay Steve oh that was professional because of the the

angle you've got the camera at I felt very uncomfortable keep saying that it's

nothing to do it's because you're short I'm five nine and a half yes this is

exhausting right what are we talking about today the mr. Duncan well we've

been talking about coronavirus of course because everyone is it almost seems like

the subject itself has become viral everyone's talking about it it's all

over the news it's all that you see on the news at the moment it's just half an

hour of coronavirus did you see those women fighting over toilet paper I did

yes that's been all over the news and over the Internet yes it's sad when that

sort of thing happens you know you'd expect it over maybe a chicken what

Oh so or a loaf of bread how did you come up with chicken well you know I've

never seen anyone fight over a chicken well you thought people would fight over

something that was really valuable to their health like food the first thing

you thought it was chicken well chicken bread rice but you think that people

would go and buy those first wouldn't you rather than toilet oh we don't know

why that is we read something on the internet that people think that because

they're their large packets okay multi packs they look big and they look like

something you might want to store up by the way multi pack multi pack did you

see that it has a prefix on the beginning we are looking at prefixes

later so these two women there they are it is Internet

Woman's Day so it's International Women's Day and here you can see some

international women fighting over toilet paper there's not nice to see they got

very angry didn't know but look how many look how many multi packs of toilet

tissue that that one lady has in her basket look at that she's filled her

basket completely full of toilet paper yes we don't know the full story there

but that alone mitt my mother said that she went into a supermarket and she saw

the same thing here people with like eight packs of toilet paper in their in

their baskets it's not the sort of thing that we're going to run out of but

there's toilet paper and it's difficult to make and as I said earlier that there

are lots there are lots of alternatives you can use newspaper you could also go

into the garden and use the grass you could sit on the grass and just drag

yourself across the wet grass and I'm sure that will clean your bottom as well

like an animal yes I mean it's hardly essential is it and you're probably only

going to have to isolate yourself for two to three weeks

so one multipacks probably going to be enough to keep you going

and if you're not feeling very well you won't be eating much and you won't use

much toilet paper but yes I mean that's the slightly scary thing if people are

fighting and panic buying toilet paper hmm what's going to happen when we get

short of food well the size I mean because that's in thick you think that

it'd be more important yes I think so well well the first thing I would be

thinking of Steve is food I mean first of all you can't eat toilet paper I mean

we could try I mean let's have a go shall we so here's some tallit paper

maybe maybe these people have discovered that toilet paper is actually very nice

to eat there might be a recipe that we don't know that's maybe there is some

sort of toilet roll recipe curry you could you could you could add curry

sauce to it chat it up well and add a curry sauce well the problem with curry

is afterwards you do definitely need toilet paper afterwards

so let's try let's see if we can eat a little bit of toilet paper just to see

if it is this might be it you see we might have cracked it Steve we might

have solved the problem maybe they know something that we don't I think these

people have found out that toilet paper can be eaten and it fills you up really

nicely it's made of cellulose so we can't

digest cellulose okay you need to be a ruminant to do that so a cow could

probably digest it but we definitely can't and it would probably cause you

serious blockage if you were to or consume that mr. Duncan I thought is mr.

Duncan actually going to do that or is he just going to say he's going to do it

but of course he has done it if that is mr. Duncan we've seen it here before

we've seen fights here I don't think that's exclusive to that particular

country we've seen people in this country fight over bread if they if

breads gone there's been a shortage of flour things like that people will fight

over things like this because it's something kicks in some kind of survival

mechanism kicks in and ultimately a part of your brain takes over their hearts

back to when we were living in caves or lokay in trees I've come to the most

other way I've come to the results Steve Paul cut me off this is like this is

like sitting at the Oxford University when someone's giving a lecture well a

part of you part of your brain is primitive yes that has been retained

from before we were human therefore or in Steve's case a hundred percent

primitive in a situation where survival could be at risk our animal instincts

will take over yes okay even if it's something like toilet paper which seems

like you wouldn't want to fight about that so the point I was trying to make

his toilet paper cannot be eaten you can't eat it

I've just tried to eat toilet paper and can I

just say it doesn't work because first of all your mouth becomes very dry so

you can't even get the toilet paper wet in your mouth so don't do that instead

you could have oh I know what you could have you could have a tin of baked beans

now I'm surprised that people aren't stocking up on tinned food so things

that come in tins because they last for years a long shelf life yes so you can

keep tinned food for a long time so I'm surprised that more people aren't going

outside and going crazy over buying things that come in cans or tins such as

baked beans which of course is well we love baked beans don't we Steve we do

we're like children we do and of course yes I mean maybe now that we said it

with all the millions watching us across the globe there will now be panic buying

of tins so I'd be responsible for that are you saying that you and I might be

responsible for panic buying tinned food let's hope not well I don't thinks I

don't think we have that much influence on the world trust me well tinned food

will keep for a couple of years at least yes so you can buy some tinned food so I

think people should be fighting each other over tins of beans and of course

not only that but you can you can also use the tins as weapons as well so if

you hit someone over the head with with it with some toilet paper it doesn't do

any damage but but you know you clapped someone over the head with a tin of

beans and yes they know about it people are obviously more worried about having

a a dirty burn than our about starving it's interesting that people are more

worried about their bottom being a little bit pooi than actually putting

food in their stomach there but it is strange in throughout the world in many

countries there's been panic buying of toilet paper why not tinned food why not

tin meat or as you said or fish something which you really will need

because even if you didn't have toilet paper you could improvise with something

else you could just use your hand just

we have Pedro says he's in a train you go from Alicante to sell that one

Salamanca in Spain Salamanca well Pedro you're on a train watching us

now I think that's probably that is dedication

you know what we could do Steve I wonder what type of train it is I wonder if

it's an old steam train old steam train but isn't that amazing Pedro is a

traveling yes okay well I'm these watching us on the train it amazed

amazing thank you for what it is that's how dedication so we pretend

we're on train here we go we're on a train there so so - just to make just to

make Pedro feel more comfortable we are we're now going to pretend we are on a

train come on Steve join him if he must still do

so the Train is rocking from side to side the Train is weather and

comfortable train mr. Turkus well it's is it lost control of the brakes broken

I think this particular train has been derailed a long time ago mr. Duncan

Stine if you say something is derailed or has gone off the rails it means that

it's not working as well as it did but but you could say a project hmm has gone

off the rails so something which had a course of action that you could see and

you've got an end point somebody's gone wrong and it's gone off the tracks or

off the rails Nestor has some good advice if you are thinking of keeping

lots of toilet paper in your house make sure you keep it away from your animals

your pets because if there's one thing that animals especially dogs and cats

like to do they like to play with the toilet paper they like to eat it scratch

it and they used to be a TV commercial many years ago with

little dog that would always get wrapped in toilet paper mr. Duncan mm-hmm

Frances has said that she's bought or he sorry has bought flour sugar tea coffee

enough for six months mr. Duncan what sugar we forgot about sugar what are you

going to do if this stores run out of sugar well we've got lots of sugar

didn't didn't you see the huge bag that I bought the other won't be enough mr.

John can you get through one big bag a week it's all right there won't be sugar

shortage what you don't know the ants might stockpile it but Mr

Duncan has 6 2 teaspoons of sugar in his tea I don't have 6 all right - that's my

mother it used that used to have 4 but you do eat an extraordinarily large

amount of sugar I don't so I think we need to stock up on that mr. that's pure

energy well it is anything you can survive on for months it's sugar

salamanca by the way is near the Portuguese border right ah Louis Thank

You Louis but I saw that that's amazing that one of your dedicated viewers is

watching you on a train and you must have very good internet because I don't

think don't know camp have we got good internet like that on our train yes ok I

never go on trains public transport I'm not interested so I just travel in a car

everywhere I never use public transit very rare do you have good internet in

your car useless yes that's it so there's some ideas I

think that's very good we need to stock up mr. Duncan in fact

what's the time if I go now you carry on with this I'll go and do some panic

buying at the local supermarket about that unfortunately we don't have a

supermarket here in Much Wenlock we just had to have two small shops so we

haven't run out of toilet paper here well yesterday Steve Steve was

desperately trying not yesterday but last week Steve was trying to get some

hand sanitizer and also some other things as well but

we can't but I have mine I have my hand sanitizer here so I always keep this

nearby it's it's strange in Much Wenlock we've got loads of toilet paper they're

trying to give it away at the supermarket we went yesterday no we

didn't pardon no we didn't well whenever it was we went to the local shop to get

some toilet paper ok and they were trying to sell it to us or do you want a

multipack or they or a shop I know but mr. Duncan the point I'm

making is that everywhere else it seems people my mother said she couldn't buy

any toilet paper where she is which is about 50 miles from here

and yet in Much Wenlock nobody seems to be panic by tour maybe they never used

it in the first place maybe we're being derogatory about the locals maybe the

locals around here don't use toilet paper but hand sanitizer as you said the

local chemist hasn't had any for three weeks we went in yesterday and asked and

she said oh we had what was it a hundred bottles in at nine o'clock and they were

all gone by 11:00 mm-hmm oh it's more than that I think she said a thousand

bottles didn't she it was a lot maybe a million maybe it

was a million bottles well okay Salamanca so no no Salamanca

that's it that would make it that would be a good name for somebody Salamanca

okay that's a good name that is just like that yes in fact in fact isn't

there in Breaking Bad isn't there somebody called Salamanca

I don't know Stu Salomon what are you saying you saying Salamanca is

automatically connected to organized crime what a great name that would make

good what's your name mr. Salamanca oh well bye-bye to all these South

American viewers thank you very much sorry name I'm not saying either bad

though he's a good name but you did sort of kind of we make me seem very if I had

opted that name I would seem very what's the word

I don't know what you're talking you mr. Salamanca sound like a Bond villain as

well isn't it do you have a third nipple like like the

man with the Golden Gun sure I'm sure in a Bond film or in a

film somewhere there's somebody called mr. Salamanca maybe somebody can look

that up why do you need toilet papers well yes not everybody uses it well you

can use toilet paper for lots of things of course not just for wiping your

bottom but also for blowing your nose or maybe if you have a little bit of loose

wax in your ear or maybe you have something in your eye and you have to

remove it or maybe your dog your dog is a little bit bored and it wants

something to play with Tomic it's in better call Saul there is

a mr. Salamanca okay told you yes I didn't say I didn't say it was wrong I

just said it's strange that you should just refer to Christina says organized

crime just Christina says that they sold out in Italy Christina what's it like

there at the moment what is the mood in Italy is it making people feel uneasy

panicky worried afraid how are people feeling in in in Italy now hmm because

this of course could happen to any European country yeah I'm probably will

well any any place in the world yes except except the Antarctic I think I

think probably the only place that there won't be coronavirus is the Antarctic

and also the North Pole and maybe Scunthorpe the North Pole I'm sure

they've had one case there a penguin got in hello Larissa sir greeting us from

Latvia okay thank you very much welcome satury know had something very harsh to

say about the way in which the news is reporting coronavirus and italy so this

is what happens there we were talking about this this morning you know you

know what happened sometimes the media will take something

and they will talk about it and then sometimes they make it seem more

dramatic than it really is so saturated was saying that she doesn't agree with

some of the news stories so a lot some of sometimes they make things seem worse

than it really is yes I mean it may get a lot worse but at the moment in most

countries it's fairly well contained but of course that as we've seen in Italy

can change very rapidly and certainly China seems to be containing it at the

moment but that's all people want to talk about at the moment

oh it's Salamanca's got one of the oldest universities in europe it's very

beautiful right that's another place we can visit in Europe yes Salamanca yes

it's in Spain isn't it so yeah it's a beautiful city and I think somebody said

that it was in Spain Luis toll as it was in Spain I see I thought it was

Portuguese I was okay though yes of course it's on

the Portuguese border it's near the port ship yes so it's in Spain

okay the Portuguese border it does it just sort of sound South American though

it sounds like it's South American would you like to have a look at some words

because we are teaching English believe it or not it is what we are doing

sometimes so we have some words to look at Steve and when you think of being hot

when you think of being very hot maybe you're in a hot room are there many

words that you could use to describe that feeling how many do you think there

are five to describe a feeling of being hot hot in a room or just hot I can

think of yes yeah well there we go look at that so there are quite a few words

we can use to describe being hot you can of course be hot something feels hot

something contains a lot of heat so it feels hot

or you might describe a room as being hot such as this room we are in now

because there are lots of lights lots of equipment in this room so this room this

room is very hot also we can use the words scolding scolding scolding hot

scolding something is scolding hot that's probably the temperature of

boiling water I sure think that might be spelt wrong now I spelt scolding wrong

then think so that's right to me mr. Duncan maybe that's the other scold

golding hot means because if you if you scold something it means you burn your

skin yes usually refers to hot water hmm or hot liquids that is something that is

so hot it can cause damage to your skin blistering on your skin yes

baking Oh it's baking hot in here mr. Duncan yes say looking hot you might say

there is baking baking hot so it's so hot of course when you want to bake

something in the oven you need a very high temperature so that's where it

comes from so if it's very hot you might say Oh mr. Duncan it is baking in your

studio it is so hot another one scorching scorching it is scorching hot

in the studio scorching yes so scorching usually

refers to something being so hot that it will cause if you were to scorch

something you will be very hot like a flame a flame thrower or a flame would

would scorch something it would change the color of it due to the heat so

you're suggesting is it's as hot as flames really that's what you're saying

quite often so you scorching is it will burn but it won't ignite so sometimes

you will see things scorched but it won't actually catch fire it will just

go it will just become discolored yes it's just below the temperature required

for something to burst into flame you're right there mr. Duncan it's just below

the flashpoint so you can yes you can scorch grass but so you would

make it change color due to the heat like the Sun might do it or a flame or a

fire if you had a fire in your garden and it was creating a lot of radiant

heat in theory it could set fire to something else nearby but it doesn't

quite do it it scorches it and then we have we have

blazing blazing hot yes again very hot so if something is blazing it can also

describe a thing that is on fire so the house is blazing really a vigorous fire

yes a vigorous fire a ferocious fire the fire is blazing roasting another one

another type of cooking one and a cooking method a method of cooking

something you normally roast a chicken maybe the chicken that those two ladies

were fighting over yes say you you've got a fire and you're turning the meat

on our honor on a on a skewer mm-hmm so it's normally when you'd refer to

roasting you normally have an open fire and you're turning the meat near to the

near to the fire itself so roasting is normally a direct heat that is normally

coming down or from underneath so I suppose you could roast some meat in the

oven so you have direct heat so roasting is another way of saying hot blistering

as well so singing something is so hot it causes maybe the paint on the front

of your house to to peel off it is so hot it is blistering and of course what

we tend to do as humans to describe something is we exaggerate us so

obviously a lot of these phrases are exaggerations and what's actually

happening so when you say something's baking hot or scolding hot you're not

referring literally to that you're trying to suggest to the person that it

is it's as hot as this so they're actually terms that exaggerate

what's really happening for you to make a real point of what you're saying you

are using those words figuratively yes so it's not literally on fire

you're not literally baking like less like some potatoes in the oven you're

not you're not literally baking so it's figurative I suppose we could also say

sweltering sweltering hot sweltering now that's not an exaggeration because if

you swelter it means you're sweating really even it's or an oppressive

humidity is sort of almost like you're in a tropical rainforest with the Sun

beating down but remember when we used to go to Malaysia on holiday yes

Malaysia is a very humid country very hot so when you go outside that to us we

would describe that as a sweltering heat it makes you sweat you go red sort of in

color and it's uncomfortable and you want to get into the air-conditioning as

quickly as possible yes sweltering something that makes you perspire or

sweat a very hot place or hot room sizzling again something quite often

used in cookery to describe something that is so hot it is now making a sound

you can hear the

sizzling sizzling and then we have boiling as well quite often we will say

it is boiling hot in this room yeah it is a common one to use it is so hot in

here it is boiling baking yes baking and boiling hot a very common

ones to use in the UK yes and finally we have searing a very

harsh direct heat that is making you feel really uncomfortable

searing yeah he's a searing heat so maybe if you go to a very hot sunny

country you might describe the Sun as searing or the heat as searing again

another type of cookery it's from cookery yes where you put meat

into a very hot pan to sort of seal it on the outside and so you need a searing

heat for that it's a very high heat that will immediately heat the protein in the

meat up to a point where it puts a seal on it hmm

it's very good before you make a stew or a casserole so normally you have you

have to make sure all of the goodness and all of the juice stays inside the

meat so rank there who's couldn't you in in order of how people the commonality

of using those phrases in the UK I would say boiling hot and baking hot would be

the common ones to use to describe the situation where it is uncomfortable

Pedro says my internet connection is bad on the train so unfortunately it is bad

on the train at the moment maybe we can chat about verbal tenses well maybe we

can we can on another time Irish and vodka is the best cure for all of the

viruses says raw man well there's a very good point Roman or Roman Roman because

we're running out of hand sanitizer here the UK yeah and of course hand

sanitizer is 80% alcohol okay then if you run out of hand sanitizer you could

rub your hands in vodka or any other spirits and that would probably do a

very good job of course it's a bit of a waste to use it for that but you know if

you were pushed if you had no other alternative you could use a high

strength actually most vodka I don't think in

this country you can't get 80% vodka in this country I was going to say you can

get 60% does it work Steve does it work the other way around though you mean I

can huge yeah can you can you actually use hand sanitizer as alcohol to get

drunk to drink so I would say guessing I would guess that the answer to that is

no no it doesn't work the other way around

so you can't drink hand sanitizer instead of vodka I don't think it works

like that you probably you probably will get drunk don't but of course I'm not

you'll be amazed you'll be there are people now fighting

maybe that's why they're all buying it Hannah sanitize there are people

fighting tooth and claw over something to wipe their bottoms on so I'm pretty

sure they might try drinking or consuming hand sanitizer please don't do

it please maybe you could say if you were

somebody that was was caught drink driving hmm you could you could say well

I've run out of hand sanitizer and I've been rubbing vodka all over my hands -

who are sanitize my hands and that's why the breathalyzer has suggested that I'm

over the limit hmm right remember what's this teiegram with chin dimple Tigran

yes there was I think it was one of my viewers Tigran I remember Tigran Tigran

was one of our viewers and they had the chin

balls just like me hi lovely dimples well I think there who was who's that

famous actor who had had a big dimple in his chin died now all that's left is he

is his dimple he was hung getting something when he's very old he died

recently lots of lots of lots of sons was he acting business was it Spartacus

yes that's what I'm thinking of Spartacus it was spartacus spartacus he

had a famous chin dimple it was the famous well-known actor Spartacus well

what was his name I can't remember now

wondering how long it take you to remember that missus I like the way you

say it just after me to make it sound as if you knew anyway but you didn't

Spartacus Sabrina says in Italy they have made the coronavirus check to

everyone that asked it in other EU countries only you have the symptoms go

to the hospital yes yes so maybe they're doing more testing in Italy so some some

countries are testing every one or as many people as possible

whilst in other countries they are only being tested if they feel unwell for

example not very far away from where we are in Wales they are doing something

very unusual they get they are getting people to drive to a place and they are

being tested as they drive through I would imagine it's some sort of clinic

so people are in their cars and then they just wind down the window and then

I think someone is just I don't know maybe poking something into their ear or

up their nose just to see what their temperature is what the test entails

whether it's a blood test or whether it's saliva I just love the idea of

having your blood taken from you I'm imagining it's saliva in your car

because they've made so many tests I can't imagine it's a blood test I'll

imagine it's saliva okay maybe somebody it's anybody watching now anybody who is

anybody watching had a corona virus test if so please tell us of what the test

entails what what is the test do you what do you spit into a something

what how do you what does their because we don't know do they just ask you we've

done thirteen thousand thirteen thousand tests here Wow

and I think we've got about two hundred and thirty people tested positive yes so

we actually have done a lot of testing here or it's gone up again what's gone

up again no it's gonna begin the number of people with corona virus in the UK

it's bound to yes see well you just gave the figure so what is it now mr. Duncan

well you just told us well that's what it was last night on them oh I see

I thought 213 or something okay I don't know I don't know that's why I asked you

you see well I don't know I'm not only five cases in the Philippines so they're

obviously Chris says that they're being very strict there in keeping people safe

can you explain to me says Francesca Francesca can you explain to me the

wards to be happenin speech the wards what's that mr. doom okay why do you

give us a bit more information what you mean

Francesca and we'll try and answer your maybe it maybe less maybe its words the

words that you use in a speech well it depends what the speech is about so do

you mean a speech that you give formally to a group of people so I don't I don't

really know flags of the world Pedro well Pedro normally disappears so I

didn't bother because Pedro normally goes ana says it's from saliva yeah a

remarkable fact actually is the speed at which they were able to to to get a test

ready I think within two weeks very short space of time they had a test

ready which they would not have been able to do twenty years ago when the

first coronavirus when you were in China SARS which is obviously very which we

know is similar to the current outbreak but it took them a long time because

because technology has come on so fast in that period of time we they were able

to come up with a scientists were able to come up with a test very very quickly

let me tell you now on two weeks we've got the answer it's a swab eye swab I

thought it would be yes because I cut that kind of Majan they'd be able to do

13 I mean thousands of tests so they just let me just explain so when we say

swab we they just wipe the inside of your mouth so it's a bit like when they

give you a DNA test as well it's probably the same sort of thing when you

have a DNA test they put something in your mouth just to wipe the side of your

mouth and then they test it to see if you have any of that horrible icky

coronavirus maria says at the beginning of your live stream I saw advertising on

YouTube about a cake it for coronavirus okay well I have no control over that

and that's nothing to do with me I think that's interesting that YouTube decided

to put up an advert for a testing kit well korone I don't think it's YouTube I

think it's someone is paying to put the advert but you know to me mr. Duncan but

I think that's interesting there was an advert for coronavirus kids but is it is

it does it really do it yes I wouldn't really work there are a lot of people

claiming to have the cure for corona virus another thing that you could buy

if you were panicking and this is something that happens in the UK Steve a

lot of people panic buy bread yeah he's here they do that that in all the years

that I've been around okay that's a long time I remember when I was a child

people used to panic buy bread it's something that in the UK that's what we

do here that it's it's bread did they have bread then if someone was to hint

even slight I can't remember why in the past there's been people do it at

Christmas don't they well they do it whenever the weather changes it's quite

often in the winter they might say oh there's a snow storm coming and PS

people will go to the shops they will go crazy

see they will all run to the shops and they will buy all the bread they will go

and take it they will buy all of the bread off the shelves so that is

something that's unique to here I think yes certainly British people they

suspect there's gonna be a you know a weather event

yes breads the first thing we usually go and it's bread milk not tallit paper we

go crazy over bread but it's I haven't heard about bread shortages so I think

what happened was in they all ran out of stocks in one country I think it was

Japan they went out of stock of toilet paper I read and then of course I think

that spread around the world and I think people are just thinking that they've

got to buy toilet paper why I don't know why you can use other things you can use

some kitchen paper maybe you have some old clothes that you don't need anymore

and maybe you could cut them up into little strips and then you could you

could use I don't know an old pair of jeans or that that that old shirt that's

got holes in it you could use those as toilet paper just just think of

something else you could use you could use your curtains you could use the edge

of your curtains and then your your neighbors will come round and say oh I

like the design of your curtains that's very unusual Wow and and what an

interesting smell man X cam sorry I don't know if I pronounced that

correctly cooking and watching us at the st. ooh what are you cooking are you

making something nice I hope so we have hot cross buns today hot cross buns one

a penny two a penny although mr. Steve unfortunately mr. Steve does not like

his hot cross buns cold he likes them he likes them hot however sometimes I might

serve them cold and so here are some words Steve to do with cold or words we

can use instead of cold I will do that for you mr. Steve because that's the

kind of guy I am there we go is that better sir

we've just done words for heart - now we're doing words for cold so you can

have cold comes it is cold in here if you are standing outside on a winter's

day maybe you have no coat maybe you're feeling cold you feel cold it is cold

you look cold maybe maybe mr. Steve's face is blue

like it was on Friday when he was feeling unwell and I thought he had

coronavirus but fortunately he he doesn't have it well I don't know I

haven't been tested you haven't got it cold we could also say bitter so it's if

it's very cold it's so bitter in here it's very bitter

it's very cold chilly I like this one chili chili is sort of not that cold

would not unbearably cold it's it just feels a bit a bit cold mmm bitter would

be if you're going to rank them bitter would be colder than chilly yes and

nippy yes nippy there's a bit of a frost about yes

so nippy you could feel maybe the ends of your fingers feel a little cold so

literally it's as if the cold is biting you so that's where it comes from so if

you say it feels nippy it's almost as if think the cold is biting your your

fingers it is nippy it's new clean here nippy

I see freezing yes very cold so you don't necessarily have to have ice on

the ground so there might be no ice however it feels as if there is ice so

you might say the weather feels icy it's very icy or maybe a person who treats

you unfairly or maybe they look at you with a stern face they give you an icy

look they look easy they're cold unemotional you give someone an icy look

it's a cold unemotional

I'm sure that's it mr. Duncan okay I'm trying

Wendy Jake I'm trying here's another frigid frigid there are so many things I

want to say at this point but most of them are rude so I'm not going to say it

frigid very cold something that is cold something that makes you feel cold maybe

a day that is really cold and makes you feel unpleasant and uncomfortable like a

fridge frigid yes like being inside a refrigerator that's it rigid well fridge

comes refrigerator comes from the word frigid so you are re frigerator a that's

also a prefix we are looking at prefixes soon we're gonna have a little contest

well I might be gone okay oh really umm are you that ill and of course if

you describe somebody as frigid you can describe a person as being frigid hmm

and that means that they're very cold unemotional and they don't want to have

sexual relations with you maybe the why your frigid you are so once again the

wife has a headache well or the man or the man or the man might have a headache

somebody who is doesn't want to have sexual relations with you might be

accused of being free cute yes or maybe they if they refuse refuse it on several

occasions you might begin to suspect that they don't fancy you and you right

as retaliation you might describe them as frigid ie cold or maybe the day or

maybe they look like that but yes you can describe somebody as frigid if they

are cold yes they are unemotional towards you they show no emotion to

whore to you they don't want to hug you or don't want to be affectionate and

they don't have sex with you okay we've got that one but you seem to be bringing

that one up a lot particularly is a glacial glacier glacial so something

that has the appearance of ice or something it appears

frozen over glacial or maybe something that appears cold in isn't but it just

appears as if it is and also something that is slow hmm slow to act you can

describe as glacial because a glassier the word obviously comes from glassier

which is that the big ice sheet yes he's very slow-moving so you could describe

think of a situation mr. Duncan where you where progress is extremely slow

okay you could say you could say in the brexit mmm in the in the when it came to

brexit so when we wanted to make negotiations with the EU over brexit are

proceeding at a glacial rate I are you're saying very slowly

I had almost forgotten about brexit thank you for bringing it up again what

I was gonna say is is how long it will take to get the vaccine for for the

coronavirus so that might be glacial it might be very slow before they get yes

vaccine for it so yes and then we have frozen frozen frozen and frozen stiff

let it go let it go let all of your troubles drift away bother me what's

that got to do with frozen that's from the movie called frozen wait okay yes

you normally say I'm frozen or unfrozen stiff I like the snowman he's ever so

funny he's a funny snowman sure he is frozen

stiff that means you're so cold that you're suggesting that you've literally

have frozen solid a frozen stiff put some heating on mr.

Duncan frozen something that is solid and won't move so even if you're not

cold something can be frozen so maybe if you're I don't know you maybe you're

watching this live stream and then suddenly

suddenly the video stop stomach says I bet you guys aren't frigid you could

that's it you can say that something is frozen so maybe mr. Duncan your video

has frozen a picture stopped me as frozen so it is not moving it is still

it is not moving it is frozen and then harsh as well harsh something is harsh

the weather is harsh or maybe a person who treats you badly or cruelly like mr.

Steve does to me sometimes the bread could be a vehicle to spread coronavirus

bread well because we don't really know yet how we don't know all the ins and

outs we don't know all the details of how the virus spreads because you

mentioned to me I mean we're assuming that it's in close

proximity to someone it's droplets droplets spread but you said some

baggage handlers at an airport people that take the luggage out of the out of

the aeroplanes or put them on to the aeroplanes - baggage handlers I think it

was in the UK Heathrow Airport Heathrow Airport in London have tested positive -

coronavirus so they're not in contact with the passengers so maybe they have

got it off the handles of people's suitcases and then they've touched their

eyes and got it that way so maybe coronavirus is being spread by suitcases

well you imagine if someone gets onto a plane all over the world people from all

different parts of the world and they're handling suitcases from people all over

the world and then they're getting the corona virus on their fingers on their

hands and then they're not washing their hands they're scratching their eyes or

something and it gets apparently then it's the north of Italy that's in

quarantine at the moment and the rest of the country is just avoiding meeting or

getting together in large groups and many restaurants cinemas theaters are

also I guess they are closed closed and I would imagine in certain

parts of the UK that might happen later on we were speculating I think it was on

the news speculating because Italian people are

very tactile and well I'm a this is what we assume that when Italians meet each

other they kiss they heard they do maybe that's contributing towards the spread

that's what was on the news here the other night

whereas English people traditionally don't maybe we shake hands but when we

greet people we don't hug them over but then on the other hand in in in France

people kiss each other I don't know whether they still do now well I didn't

see your name is not spreading that fast in France I didn't see anyone kissed

last year when we were in Paris let's see anyone it wasn't very gay to

me no I mean the opposite I think when I met colleagues and I certainly met an

Italian colleague in Paris and she was very tactile towards me kissing and

whatever which to us British people is a bit unusual although not so much now

what people do tend to hug more we're more tactile than we used to be we used

to be very frigid you could say hey hey hey

I would say Italian and French people would describe British people as being

very reserved we shake hands we do but that's very formal isn't yes and I think

hugging and cheek kissing when I say cheeks I mean on the face I think a lot

of people do in this country also kiss on the cheeks to be honest with you I

always feel uncomfortable I don't like it I don't like personal contact with

people I don't know I don't like hugging people who I don't know I don't like

kissing people I don't know on the chin or cheek even like kissing people you do

know no not really well Christina and also Santa RINO is an Maria Maria sorry

and Christine have said that the coronavirus have been shown to survive

for quite considerable periods of time 9 or 10 days on a surface which of course

is when you the common cold and flu virus is dead quite quickly

certainly within 24 hours and if you expose it to the Sun the ultraviolet

rays will destroy it quite quickly as well so that's probably contributing

towards the spread is the fact that it's it's obviously can survive quite well

exposed to the air I'm wondering how long it will be before we have a reality

TV show with people in quarantine so a little bit like Big Brother but they

will call it korone a big brother or coronavirus big

brother and so they'll have people in isolation but they will they'll let us

watch them in isolation as they as they try to get over or to recover from

coronavirus it will happen trust me every everything is now shown on

television we have naked people on our television here in the UK there is a

show where people try to find their perfect mate and as a way of showing the

other person they actually get them to take all of their clothes off and they

show everything on television everything everything so that gives you

an idea so Steve was just saying that British people are very bashful and shy

but actually we're not that shy because quite a few of us are willing to go on

television completely naked and they show everything on this TV show is I'm

not even that attractive I'm not even that attractive I don't mind taking a

naked body unless it's it's you know somebody attractive they're quite often

that they have men and women and sometimes the camera gets very close oh

I can't believe it he's shocked yes people are saying that in some countries

people are started to greet each other in different ways

maybe adopting the bow as they do in Japan I think I think I think the bow is

very good I think they should do bowing so you can bow as you go up to your

colleague at work or your friend or you can say hello good morning everyone good

morning good morning I think just just a hi just uh just a hand ways fine

or thumb alright now that that's no good all right you can't do that that's it

that's a bit lowbrow oh my I would say that if you put you do a thumbs up I

know President Trump likes to do that a lot to people all right but if you did

that to business colleagues here in the UK it would be perceived as as you being

not particularly sophisticated and maybe somebody you wouldn't want to do

business with alright but if you just ran like that or I think some people are

sort of doing that aren't they they're doing that I've seen that I thought they

were do they're using their elbows I think that's dangerous because if we're

being told to sneeze into our elbows right so if you do that to somebody

you're gonna pass the infection on just you don't want any content as long as

they don't put their face in there there they're not going I've sneezed in there

by the way mr. Duncan it's all right whatever you've got it's mine hello from

Ecuador hello the Nietzsche oh sorry I don't know I'm very bad pronouncing

names they are yes I feel like I'm on a I'm on a train or something it's slowly

running out of steam it's it's coming to a stop yeah somebody has said it in

Italy they've got a very high proportion of people over 65 yes I've heard that as

well which of course people over 65 are the most vulnerable to this particular

infection just as they are to flu that's why I was so worried about Steve when he

was feeling unwell on Friday I thought oh well you know he's in a danger group

you see the the vulnerable group Steve is there definitely he's got one foot in

in the vulnerable area I think so so I was very worried I was worried that

Steve might be coming down with something but fortunately he's he's

better my voice is going to be mr. Duncan ed and the Gabby had to stay

on for much longer there was a movie called outbreak it says Christina was it

was that the one with Dustin Hoffman I'm not sure about a virus

hmm but I didn't think it would really happen blimey imagine if all the

disaster movies ever made all came true yes well some of them have yes well

here's one yeah King Kong who remembers when that giant

gorilla rampaged through the middle of where was it New York and then he

climbed right to the top right at the top of the Empire State Building and

there was that poor woman and he was holding her in his hand and she was held

by a gorilla on the side of the Empire State Building

Julie G says that if she met you she wouldn't be able to hug you

well you could as long as you could show us a negative test result

maybe that's what we've got to do from now on maybe when you meet somebody

you've got to show them your latest tests correct results that's not the

only test to either hello just show me your test results and I'll

find her there's a whole list of tests especially if you're dating nowadays so

if you're dating someone and you meet someone for the first time quite often

you need to see all of their medical records to make sure they don't have any

of those statue eunuchs says that they're going to kiss you safely online

safely if the viruses can't travel I see yes you can send me you can send me a

virtual kiss if you want you can send me a virtual kiss maybe a little icon or an

emoji that looks like a pair of lips going Oh mr. Duncan I'm going to go

short okay well see you bye okay off you go

sir or shall I stay to the top of the arrow for crying out loud how long do

you want me to stay for well I'm going to have my little prefix game in a

moment are you excited slightly there's a lot

going on so we have some prefixes what I'm going to do is show some sentences

and you have to guess what the prefix is but I will make it easy of course so I

will be showing you some of the actual prefixes so this is what a prefix looks

like I have a feeling it might be in Steve's way so I'm going to move it

slightly there we go I'm so thoughtful don't you think so

after day until the top of the app so you can see here on the screen Steve

there are some prefixes so these are prefixes that often come at the

beginning of words so they change the structure or the meaning of the word so

you can have a reverse meaning for example or maybe you are expressing the

quality of a certain item or maybe it's appearance the way it looks so you can

see here there are quite a few prefixes on this list I will try to get that

right pre means before it isn't it so you have in urn Omni Unni super non

ultra sub multi there are more of course there are other ones but these are the

ones I'm going to concentrate on today so in a moment I'm going to show you

some sentences and what I'm going to ask you to do is tell me which prefix and

also what the word is as well so I'm going to make it a little difficult

I'm always accused of my of my little quizzes being too easy so I've made

today's very hard it's very hard so that's coming in a moment mr. Steve

would you like to go and have a rest I think I will and also would you like to

go and get a cup of tea ready and also a hot cross burn because this afternoon we

are going to sit and watch some episodes of Columbo can I just make one final

point from where I go from Maria okay Italy is saying that they've counted

exactly the number of infected people but in other countries like the United

States there they're not and that they're not doing that accurately and

that is true they're not testing enough people in America so there could be far

more cases than are being reported yes so anyway keep safe everybody and

hopefully see you all next week and I hope you enjoy mr. Duncan's prix fixe

quiz quiz and maybe I'll see the results of that later I've put so much effort

into this I even have an introduction for it I've been busy this morning on on

my Premiere Pro visiting visit video editing suite which is that's why you

were late on today mr. Dale are there many reasons of course you were partly

to blame me because I was I was so worried about Steve because I thought he

had I thought you had covered 19 I really thought that mr. Steve was coming

down with it well I could be I haven't been attested well you're okay now

there are Freight phases to it apparently you you get a sort of cold

like symptoms first yeah and then like a week later you get flu-like symptoms and

a week after that you get a pneumonia sort of comes in phases okay well first

of all can I put this on your head just to make sure yes I meet anybody else it

so now I'm here in the kitchen so this afternoon mr. Steve might go outside for

a walk around the village so this this will warn people not to go too close to

mr. Steve just in case they catch something from him

right so do you may need to have you got any moderators on today yes good okay

right so lovely to see you all this is very annoying mr. Duncan you have to

keep it on that's it at all times by the way if you want to get a print out you

can print this out on your computer so if you if you look down slightly Steve

that's it stay still that's it so now you can get a screenshot of this and

then you can print it out on your computer and then you can wear the same

thing on your head and then it will make sure that no one

comes too close to you are you charging for that this is this is part of my

service you see part of the service so I'm expecting next to it next year to

get some sort of I don't know Nobel Prize for medicine or something so this

is all you need you need just one of these to remind people not to get too

close see you all next week and to Tom mr. Duncan I shall see you in

the kitchen later okay then bye can you take your can you take your thing with

you I can't believe Steve went away to get

something to make him look taller I can't believe he did that

so mr. Steve has gone unfortunately by mr. Steve I so we have a little contest

a little quiz before we finish over the next 15 or 20 minutes we are going to

have a little contest would you like to play along

well would you I hope so I really do hope so where is where is the intro I

can't find the intro where is it gone oh there it is I found it now so here it is

here is the intro to something that is so incredible so tell your friend shout

out of the window tell everyone that now we are going to play the prefix game

I hope you are excited are you as excited as I am I I'm feeling so excited

at the moment so here we go the prefix game and it's quite easy to play

although for some people it might be hard because I have been told I have had

people complain and say mr. Duncan some of your contests and your quizzes are

too easy can you please make them harder so I have a hard one for you today

I really do so what I'm going to do is show you some sentences and what I want

you to do is tell me what the prefix is and also the word that the prefix is

part of Oh so as we play along I'm sure you will

get the idea of how we play it so you will slowly see what will happen in the

game so I will show you a sentence what I want you to do is look up there you

will see lots of prefixes and I also want the word as well the missing word

that goes with the prefix are you ready are you ready to play a super-duper game

called the prefix gay

I've spent so long this morning designing that and that's the reason why

I'm playing it twice because I I wanted to show I wanted to show how much work I

had put into it so here we go the prefixes are on your screen now and here

is the first sentence what you have to do is tell me what the word is including

the prefix Oh mr. Duncan you are so naughty here it is now here it is and I

will put the list of prefixes on the screen as well so here is the first one

all you have to do is tell me what the word is using the prefixes it's as

simple as that so there is the first one I can't

believe it that's what I can't believe it that is what what is it what is it I

can't believe it that is something but what is it what is

it I can't believe it that is but which one which prefix is it which prefix

could it be mmm it's a hard one I can't believe it

that is any idea anyone anyone does anyone know

time's up time is up so what is it who is it where is it why is it I can't

believe it that is and don't forget you have to use you have to use one of the

prefixes that is on the screen right now or of course sometimes you might be able

to use two prefixes so maybe there are two

possible answers ooh I'm so naughty I can't believe it that is well you have a

choice of two answers I can't believe it that is Thank You grace Thank You Martha

Thank You melanoma that is incredible incredible that is incredible

or unbelievable so you can see incredible unbelievable

and you can see we have the prefixes there on the list so I can't believe it

that is incredible all unbelievable so you can see at the

start of those words there is a prefix incredible is defining the opposite so

you are showing the opposite there so incredible means not credible something

that is unbelievable something that you can't accept as being real incredible or

unbelievable so that is the first one I hope you enjoyed that so that is the

first one here is another one because I like to keep you guessing I hope you

don't mind me making your brain heat up on a Sunday I know a lot of people like

to rest on Sundays thank you mister pheasant so now we have all we have

another one now in the prefix game can you see it now on the screen this

blanket will not burn because it is what what is it because it is

this blanket will not burn because it is what what is it this blanket will not

burn I will give you a few moments to put your answer this is what this

blanket will not burn because it is what

what is it we have a few people giving answers but what is it

this blanket will not burn in other words it will not catch fire and we can

use at least one of those prefixes we can use one of those with a word this

blanket will not burn because it is Oh

Thank You Mellon OA thank you also Anna

thank you vino she oh the answer is shall I give

you the answer right now

the answer is non-flammable so this blanket will not burn because it is non

flammable so the word flammable means something that will catch fire non

flammable means something that will not catch fire so something that will catch

fire easily is flammable something that will not catch fire easily is non

flammable non-committal

so in that case we are saying not non it will not do the thing that the word

describes flammable means it will burn non flammable means it won't burn it

won't catch fire so I hope you got that right yes I know these are hard but

sometimes you have to have hard questions to improve your knowledge

here's another one would you like to see the next one on the screen this is a

prefix all I'm looking for is the prefix and also the word as well Wow so what is

a word he is everywhere mr. Duncan he is everywhere he seems what what do I seem

what do I seem what do I appear to be what do I seem to be he is everywhere he

seems what what do you think it is he is everywhere he seems Inigo thank you very

much also Nestor Vinicio Susy care thank you very much

for your answers Superman yes he could be Superman he could you're right

time's up he is everywhere he seems are you ready for the word omnipresent

omnipresent so if a person is omnipresent it means they are everywhere

they are all over the place everywhere you go you see that person or they

appear to be everywhere you might say every time I go onto the internet I keep

finding mr. Duncan and his English lessons

he seems omnipresent Omni everywhere all over the place always found so if we say

Omni it means everywhere so something that has maybe a direction that goes in

many places so maybe not just one direction but many directions Omni Omni

Omni present all over the place he seems to be everywhere everywhere I hope you

enjoyed that here's another one oh I like this one here's another interesting

one this sponge is what now think of the sponge think of something that you used

to wash yourself with it has a certain property but what is the property

something that it does very well what is it what is it this sponge is what what

is the sponge what is it it has a certain quality a certain thing that

makes it very special this sponge is what what is the sponge and as I said

can pick one of the prefixes there but which one is it which one is it

in fact there might be two answers for this one there might actually be two

answers so you might have more than one choice

Thank You vinicio thank you and a pea chair Thank You pal Mira something

that's omnipresent sounds very formal yes but quite often we will use it

religious people might say that God is omnipresent is everywhere nest all thank

you very much for your answer as well

time's up

I like it I like it a lot so from our list of prefixes we can say that this

sponge is super or ultra absorbent so this sponge is super or ultra absorbent

so in this sense we are saying it does something but it does something very

well it just it does it really well it's good it is very good it's very good at

this it is super it is ultra absorbent that means that it will soak the water

very easily it has very good properties for absorbing things this sponge is

super or ultra in this sense the word ultra means very very very absorbent

and that was that here's another one go round the corner there might be a space

to park at the what go round the corner there might be a space to park at the

what go round the corner there might be a space to park at the what where do you

sometimes park your car when you park your car where do you sometimes put your

car where do you put it sometimes especially when you go to town when you

go to town when you go into the town to do your shopping you might park at the

what you might park at the what so think of a place that you can park your car

think of a place but maybe the place has many levels so not just one level but

maybe many levels so I'm giving you a clue there to the answer a little clue

go round the corner there might be a space to park at the what so you can

park on many levels many levels Maria you are very close Maria very close very

near not so many people getting this one

Thank You colonel I see colonel thank you very much also Christina Belarusian

says it's not easy sometimes learning is not easy I will give you the answer

would you like the answer right now okay

here is the answer to the question go around the corner there might be a space

to park at the multi-story the multi-story or of course you can say

multi-story car park so when we say multi-story what we are actually saying

is something that has many levels or floors so multi-story means something

that has many levels so not just one level but many levels quite often

nowadays if you go into your local town or city you might find that there is a

multi-story car park a place where you can park your car and you have lots of

levels to choose from so they can get more cars into the building so not just

one level but multi-story multi levels so multi means more than one multi more

than one it's very difficult that one well sometimes learning is difficult

it's not always easy and that's why we call it learning

here's another one oh I know that I know this is a bit

difficult the cave is underground it is what

the cave is underground it is what cave is underground what is it it is one of

these prefixes one of them which one

doo-doo-doo-doo the cave is underground it is what by

the way good afternoon from the UK if you just joined me yes this is mr.

Duncan for a few more minutes doing my

super-duper live stream and then I will be gone so we are now playing the prefix

game you have to find the prefix so find the prefix and also give me the word as

well the cave is underground it is what it is what we have some correct answers

Isabella says invisible I like that answer by the way because if something

is hidden of course it is invisible so yes I like that I like that it's not the

answer I have on my paper it's not the same one but yes that is a good answer I

like that nice one so what is it

time's up

what is it so we have a choice of prefixes but which one is it the cave is

underground it is oh thank you very much quite a few people have got this one

right well done subterranean subterranean underground so sub means

under under so anything that has the prefix sub

is under for example submarine submarine is a vessel that can go under water

marine means water under water submarine so if we have subterranean well terrain

means ground ground so subterranean means something that is located or

exists underground under Neath the ground

subterranean I like it I like it a lot we can also have subway subway so a

subway is where you go underground to cross the road or maybe you have to go

underground to catch a train subway under ground so a way that you can walk

a place where you walk to get somewhere underground the cave is on the ground it

is subterranean very good thank you very much I like this one we need to buy some

we need to buy some toilet paper from the local what we need to buy some

toilet paper from the local what where do we need to buy the toilet paper but

please if you are buying toilet paper please don't fight over the toilet paper

there is plenty of toilet paper for everyone in the world I'm pretty sure of

it so we need to buy some toilet paper from the local what let's have a look

shall we do does anyone know the answer to this we need to buy some toilet paper

from the local

some answers coming through now thank you very much

Thank You malla Thank You Kristina rhs thank you also franceska thank you Dadu

dext microbiologist hello to you is it your first time here hello tree Wang

hello grace chin Kristina thank you very much for your answers they're good but

what is the answer which prefix are we looking at which prefix what is the

prefix here we go the prefix for this one and I will show you the list again

so you can see it there is the list which one is it we need to buy some

toilet paper from the local the local supermarket super market so it isn't

just the market it is a supermarket so quite often we will describe a

supermarket as maybe a department store or maybe an area where many things are

sold so maybe you can buy food maybe things to drink and maybe things also

for your house maybe things to wash your clothes with so a supermarket is a place

where you buy things it sells all sorts of products and quite often we will

describe it as a supermarket supermarket and as you can see we have super on our

list there it is it is a prefix that means something that is more than usual

something that might be better than usual something that is bigger something

that is better a supermarket a big place that sells lots of things

including toilet paper

here's another one but um would you like another one okay we'll have we have

three more and then I'm going oh here's a good one I I'm pretty sure some of you

will get this I think quite a few of you will get this right let's see shall we

I don't know how he is able to ride that I don't know how he is able to ride that

what which one what is the prefix we are using for this quite a choice in fact I

don't know how he is able to ride that what I don't know how I don't know how

he is able to ride that what think of something that you might ride that is

very hard to stay on something that is very hard to ride and sometimes you see

people at the circus riding this particular thing I will give you a few

more moments because I know that there is a delay on the livestream some times

so I know that there is a delay sometimes on the live chat so I will

give you a few more moments and then I will give you the answer I don't know

how he is able to ride that what

something that is very hard to ride something that you see at the circus

quite often you will see maybe a circus performer or maybe a person in the

street might be riding it and it's very hard to ride but what is it what is it

hello - Prabhakar beat trees hello also Noemi thank you very much for your

answers Oh quite a few people are leaving answers now - this one I don't

know how he is able to ride that what what can he ride or maybe what can she

ride as well so you know maybe it's a lady riding this particular thing

because of course it is International Women's Day hello to all the women

watching I know I have a lot of admirers of the female gender what is the answer

time's up I will show you the prefixes again so they are on the screen I don't

know how he is able to ride that what something you see at the circus a person

might be riding it the answer is unicycle a unicycle

so uni means one or single uni unicycle so a unicycle is a one-wheeled bicycle

it only has one wheel have you ever tried to ride a unicycle ever I haven't

I've never tried and I I don't think I ever will

unicycle one it has a single wheel and of course there is bicycle as well so

when we say bicycle the word by means two or pair of so a bicycle has two

wheels a unicycle has one wheel Wang will here's another one this is the

penultimate so the penultimate one before we go this device has many uses

as it is what what is it this device has many uses as it is what this device has

many uses as it is what I will give you a few moments so I won't rush you don't

worry you have plenty of time so many people are now on the live chat thank

this device it has or it is what what is it

this device has many uses as it is multi functional multi functional so you can

see we are using multi again there it is multi many so this device has many uses

as it is multi functional so if something is multifunctional it means it

has many uses it can be used in many ways it is multi functional it has many

functions function means uses or the thing it does the operation that it

carries out this device has many uses as it is multi functional it can be used in

many ways and we have one more there is just one more before I go I wonder if
