I hope you are feeling well.
1
239138
2869
04:14
We are back together again.
2
254120
2869
04:17
It is so nice to be here with you.
3
257990
3737
04:21
We are back once more and it's very nice to be with you during the week.
4
261994
4671
04:26
Oh, very unusual.
5
266699
2335
04:29
I have to say. Hi, everybody.
6
269068
2202
04:31
This is Mr. Duncan in England. How are you today?
7
271270
3370
04:34
Are you okay?
8
274673
1168
04:35
I hope so.
9
275841
968
04:36
Are you happy? Are you feeling good today?
10
276809
3470
04:40
I hope you are feeling bright and gay
11
280312
3137
04:43
because it is English addict Extra.
12
283449
3670
04:47
I have been listening to your comments.
13
287553
3870
04:51
I read everything you write.
14
291457
2836
04:54
All of the things you send to me.
15
294326
2136
04:56
I do read them.
16
296495
1902
04:58
Some people say I don't, but I do.
17
298397
1835
05:00
I definitely do read everything you send to me.
18
300232
3303
05:03
And I've had a few requests for English and Extra.
19
303902
5606
05:09
On Wednesday I used to do it.
20
309708
2269
05:11
Then I stopped doing it.
21
311977
1969
05:13
And now a lot of people want me to do it again.
22
313946
2202
05:16
So I am going to do it every Wednesday to pay UK.
23
316148
5839
05:21
Time is when I'm here with you.
24
321987
2636
05:24
So we are going to do it on Wednesday, even though
25
324957
4771
05:30
it might
26
330929
1202
05:32
cause me a little bit of chaos,
27
332131
2369
05:34
A little bit more work to do perhaps.
28
334900
3904
05:39
But if you want it, I will try my best
29
339505
3270
05:43
to fulfil my obligation.
30
343275
3170
05:46
Oh, I like that.
31
346779
1134
05:47
To fulfil, fulfil or something.
32
347913
3036
05:50
You you carry out the task, you satisfy
33
350949
5673
05:57
the other person you fulfil
34
357055
2269
05:59
their needs or their requirements.
35
359892
4437
06:04
Oh, very nice.
36
364329
2503
06:06
So I will try my best to fulfil
37
366832
3337
06:10
your requirements, your needs,
38
370602
2803
06:13
the things you expect from me.
39
373605
3137
06:17
Today, by the way, we are talking all about
40
377309
2703
06:21
having something extra, which seems rather appropriate
41
381013
5739
06:27
because I'm here with you now doing my English addict extra.
42
387085
4205
06:31
By the way, for those wondering what this is all about,
43
391323
5339
06:38
English,
44
398197
1434
06:40
you may have already guessed that actually.
45
400432
1902
06:42
So my name is Mr. Duncan.
46
402334
2035
06:44
That's me, by the way.
47
404403
1668
06:46
And I talk about the English language. I love it.
48
406071
2769
06:48
You might say that I am one of those up there.
49
408840
2203
06:51
I am an English addict and I have a feeling perhaps
50
411076
4271
06:55
maybe you are one of those as well.
51
415347
3670
06:59
It's nice to see you all here.
52
419418
1535
07:00
Yes, we have made it to the middle of the week because it is Wednesday.
53
420953
5472
07:24
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.
54
444109
3270
07:27
Wednesday has arrived.
55
447612
2336
07:31
And it's lovely to be with you.
56
451550
2135
07:33
I have to say, it does feel rather weird.
57
453685
2102
07:35
It feels slightly strange to be with you on Wednesday after such a long break
58
455787
5539
07:41
from doing this during the week.
59
461960
2369
07:44
But we are back together and I know a lot of you love chatting
60
464329
4638
07:48
not only to me on the live chat but also to each other.
61
468967
3804
07:52
We do have the live chat right now.
62
472771
4471
07:57
Hello to everyone.
63
477242
1501
07:58
I wonder who was first on today's live chat.
64
478743
3337
08:02
Oh, very interesting. We have V test.
65
482080
2903
08:05
V test.
66
485083
1034
08:06
You are first.
67
486117
1469
08:07
Once again, congratulations.
68
487586
3970
08:17
Well done V tests.
69
497229
1434
08:18
It's very nice to see you here.
70
498663
2136
08:20
And I'm so glad.
71
500799
1601
08:22
I'm very glad that you have decided to Joy.
72
502400
3003
08:25
And again, we also have Palmira.
73
505403
2403
08:28
Apparently you are only here for a short time.
74
508139
3971
08:32
I would imagine you have lots of things to do,
75
512110
2102
08:35
which is the reason why you are not staying long.
76
515380
3303
08:38
We also have your gun.
77
518683
1936
08:40
Bart. Dan? Dan, Jad.
78
520619
2869
08:44
Who gun back?
79
524189
1134
08:45
Jan Jad, hello to you and thank you for joining me.
80
525323
5506
08:50
Where are you watching at the moment?
81
530829
1635
08:52
Where are you in the world?
82
532464
2903
08:55
I wonder where you are.
83
535367
2502
08:57
Please let me know.
84
537869
1969
08:59
We also have sash.
85
539904
2103
09:02
Double sash is here as well. Nice to see you here.
86
542140
3370
09:05
Also on the live chat
87
545577
2936
09:08

88
548613
2803
09:11
he is here.
89
551750
1301
09:13
Luis Mendez
90
553051
3070
09:16
is here today. Hello, Louis.
91
556121
2302
09:18
Watching in Friends, a place where I will be
92
558423
4771
09:24
around about five weeks from now.
93
564462
2202
09:27
Not only myself, but also Mr.
94
567999
1735
09:29
Steve and some of the English addicts.
95
569734
3470
09:33
We will all be here together
96
573204
2102
09:36
and we will all be there in Paris in June.
97
576274
4771
09:41
I have to say, I am really looking forward to it.
98
581379
2536
09:44
Hello, Also Francesca.
99
584449
1668
09:46
We have Chee Kim.
100
586117
2302
09:48
Hello, Chee Kim, where are you watching at the moment?
101
588419
4038
09:52
I'm very interested to find out.
102
592557
2970
09:56
We also have.
103
596127
968
09:58
Oh, I haven't done this for a long time.
104
598263
2435
10:01
Mar was
105
601032
2703
10:03
more warm.
106
603735
2836
10:06
It's so nice to see you here as well.
107
606938
3136
10:10
Nice to see everyone.
108
610808
1469
10:12
Mong Golia. Hello.
109
612277
2402
10:14
You can bat in Mongolia now.
110
614979
3637
10:18
I have been
111
618616
2202
10:21
very close to where you are.
112
621886
2002
10:23
Not actually Mongolia, but I did live
113
623888
3704
10:28
for a certain amount of time for a few years
114
628059
3871
10:32
in Inner Mongolia, which is part of China.
115
632230
3470
10:36
So I wasn't very far away from you.
116
636000
2536
10:38
And I did during my time in Inner
117
638536
4071
10:42
Mongolia, I did travel to the grasslands and I had a lovely experience
118
642607
5839
10:48
of being there, a very beautiful place.
119
648446
3503
10:52
And I have to say I was there
120
652317
3169
10:55
and I didn't want to leave if I was honest with you,
121
655853
2570
10:59
especially where the grasslands are, the place
122
659490
2736
11:02
I was actually working at, the place I was working in, in China.
123
662226
4371
11:06
Wall was quite industrial, so it was lovely to go
124
666964
4872
11:12
to the grasslands, to be honest.
125
672303
3337
11:15
I did enjoy it very much.
126
675640
2769
11:19
I know that this is a surprise live stream,
127
679844
4438
11:24
so maybe some of you are not prepared
128
684415
2836
11:27
for my arrival, but that's okay.
129
687718
2370
11:30
I can tell you now that I will be with you next Wednesday as well.
130
690621
3637
11:35
Hello. Also Beatrice.
131
695059
1835
11:36
Beatrice is here.
132
696894
2203
11:39
I'm looking forward to seeing you as well.
133
699097
3002
11:42
When we all meet up in Paris.
134
702533
2836
11:45
H C is here.
135
705369
2937
11:49
Hello to you.
136
709607
1201
11:50
A very mysterious name.
137
710808
3537
11:55
A very mysterious
138
715079
2536
11:58
title for your presence here on the live chat.
139
718916
4071
12:03
Who else is here today?
140
723688
2269
12:05
Maria. Hello, Maria.
141
725957
2002
12:07
Nice to see you.
142
727959
867
12:08
Also on the live chat.
143
728826
1201
12:10
It's great to see you here today.
144
730027
2937
12:13
We have some strange weather.
145
733331
2335
12:15
We have everything at the moment.
146
735666
2403
12:18
If we look outside the window, here we go.
147
738069
2302
12:21
So there is the view outside at the moment.
148
741205
2469
12:23
It's rather windy, It is unsettled.
149
743674
4038
12:27
We've had a lot of rain yesterday day.
150
747712
2802
12:30
We had so much rain yesterday.
151
750848
2469
12:34
I can't begin to tell you how much rain we had,
152
754018
3103
12:37
but we had a lot of rain and also this morning
153
757121
3604
12:41
and the afternoon, apparently it's going to rain again.
154
761626
3403
12:45
So during today's live stream, you might find that there is some rain
155
765029
5539
12:50
falling from the sky during this particular live stream.
156
770801
5706
12:58
So we will see what happens.
157
778042
1802
12:59
And of course, you can see behind me another live view looking out of the window.
158
779844
4838
13:04
We have lots of lovely crop.
159
784882
2035
13:06
We have lots of lovely green rain.
160
786917
2503
13:09
We have everything looking very summery.
161
789720
4004
13:14
It looks like summer has finally arrived here in the UK.
162
794859
4304
13:19
Very nice.
163
799630
868
13:20
Oh, by the way, I think I'm
164
800498
3470
13:23
not 100% sure, but I think we might be getting some animals at the back of the house
165
803968
5839
13:29
because the farmer who owns the animals
166
809807
3971
13:34
was actually at the back of the house this morning.
167
814378
3070
13:38
Can I just say
168
818249
2102
13:42
I have met many people in my life,
169
822086
2602
13:44
many different people all around the world.
170
824955
3037
13:49
But this particular man
171
829426
1936
13:51
I met this morning at the back of my house,
172
831362
2836
13:54
he might be the grumpy past,
173
834198
3470
13:58
the most
174
838702
1302
14:00
unhappy and unfriendly person I've ever met.
175
840004
5105
14:07
I said, Hello, good morning.
176
847011
2769
14:09
And he didn't really reply.
177
849780
1468
14:11
He just looked at me
178
851248
2503
14:13
like this
179
853951
1568
14:19
and I said, Are you all right?
180
859290
2902
14:22
And he said,
181
862192
1335
14:24
And a lot. Hmm.
182
864662
3570
14:28
Yeah.
183
868232
1134
14:29
So he made it very clear that he didn't want to speak to me.
184
869366
3904
14:33
He didn't want to have anything to do with me whatsoever,
185
873637
3270
14:37
which is rather awkward because he was actually
186
877908
2936
14:40
just behind my fence.
187
880844
3137
14:44
Technically, he is a neighbour,
188
884982
2536
14:47
or at least the animal that he has will soon be my my neighbour.
189
887918
4338
14:53
But he was so unfriendly and I sometimes wonder why that is.
190
893157
5005
14:58
So why are some people unfriendly
191
898162
3403
15:01
when you meet them, especially for the first time?
192
901565
3337
15:05
I always like to think that I make
193
905235
2670
15:07
a good impression when I meet someone for the first time,
194
907905
3303
15:11
even though I kind of quite shy, quite shy and introverted.
195
911208
4371
15:15
But I do always try to show my best side
196
915913
3904
15:20
to someone I've never met before.
197
920317
2402
15:22
However, this guy
198
922953
2636
15:25
this morning did not want to speak.
199
925923
3503
15:31
He made it very clear by his attitude,
200
931061
3370
15:35
but also the look on his face as well.
201
935098
2536
15:39
I don't want to speak to you.
202
939570
3003
15:42
Stop speaking to me.
203
942639
2069
15:44
I don't want to talk to you.
204
944708
2269
15:46
Just go away.
205
946977
1668
15:48
So I did. I did.
206
948645
1569
15:50
I did not speak to him.
207
950214
1868
15:52
I just let him carry on with what he was doing.
208
952082
3437
15:55
But I am hopeful.
209
955719
1602
15:57
I am hopeful that we will be getting some lovely animals at the back of the house.
210
957321
4371
16:02
And as you know, I do love nature very much.
211
962192
3504
16:05
I love all the things connected to nature, not only the animals,
212
965696
5972
16:12
but also, I suppose you might say, the plants and everything
213
972169
6673
16:19
that surrounds me here in much Wenlock.
214
979309
2870
18:04
We will have a little bit more nature later on
215
1084748
4437
18:09
with a little mouse because the mice are back
216
1089686
4571
18:14
after their long hibernation, they have returned
217
1094324
3437
18:19
the mice are
218
1099529
1168
18:20
back at the back of the house, they are back
219
1100697
3170
18:23
and they have returned.
220
1103867
3203
18:27
We will be taking a look at one particular mouse in a few moments
221
1107070
4304
18:31
because I like nature and I have a feeling that you do as well.
222
1111374
4672
18:36
Apparently Beatrice was going to the bank,
223
1116579
5239
18:42
but then she found out that I was doing my live stream,
224
1122685
3771
18:46
so she changed her mind and went back home.
225
1126756
2369
18:49
Did you really change your plans just for me?
226
1129626
3003
18:53
Can I say thank you very much?
227
1133229
1902
18:55
And I feel I feel slightly honoured.
228
1135131
2469
18:58
All I can say is I hope that I have not put you out too much.
229
1138067
5039
19:03
I hope I haven't spoilt your plans for today.
230
1143473
3770
19:07
Too much.
231
1147477
2469
19:09
It is very nice here today.
232
1149946
1568
19:11
Lots of lovely spring weather.
233
1151514
1435
19:12
It is looking really good even though we are having a lot of rain right now.
234
1152949
6406
19:19
Of course all of the excitement,
235
1159522
2903
19:22
all of the gossip
236
1162659
2402
19:25
and chit chat about last weekend's
237
1165495
3904
19:29
coronation of King Charles, it's all vanished.
238
1169399
4404
19:34
No one is talking about it.
239
1174304
1968
19:36
Isn't it strange when you have a big event or a big thing that happens?
240
1176272
4538
19:41
Isn't it strange how quickly people move on?
241
1181211
2936
19:44
They forget all about it.
242
1184380
1669
19:46
So? So virtually no one is talking about the coronation
243
1186049
3537
19:49
now, even though a lot of people today are talking about
244
1189586
3069
19:54
the British royal family,
245
1194290
1902
19:56
apparently a certain newspaper in this country
246
1196192
4538
20:01
is actually in court at the moment.
247
1201698
3403
20:05
They are being sued by some well-known
248
1205335
4037
20:09
celebrities because apparently this particular newspaper
249
1209372
3270
20:13
was spying and using a legal method
250
1213142
4038
20:17
to find out or obtain information about those particular
251
1217447
4471
20:22
well-known people, including members of the British
252
1222151
4271
20:26
royal family,
253
1226489
3070
20:30
namely Prince Harry.
254
1230059
2169
20:32
So that is something that happened
255
1232762
2602
20:36
this morning. It's been happening.
256
1236499
1568
20:38
And apparently the newspaper has now admitted responsibility.
257
1238067
4271
20:42
So it would appear that they are about to to
258
1242772
3704
20:46
maybe come to some settlement out of court.
259
1246542
3804
20:50
So this sometimes happens when you maybe if another person decides
260
1250780
5305
20:56
to take legal action against you, you might have to go to court,
261
1256085
6440
21:02
you might have to fight in the court
262
1262692
4237
21:07
to come to some arranged it.
263
1267530
2336
21:10
But of course, some people don't want to go through
264
1270199
2736
21:12
the lengthy procedure of a court case.
265
1272935
3137
21:16
So instead they settle.
266
1276372
2503
21:18
They settle, which means that one person will probably give
267
1278875
4604
21:23
the other person a lot of money and then everything is sorted out.
268
1283646
4504
21:29
Hello to Aziz.
269
1289719
2269
21:31
Hello, Aziz.
270
1291988
1401
21:33
Nice to see you here today. Hello, Mr. Duncan.
271
1293389
3070
21:36
How are you doing?
272
1296459
1368
21:37
How was the coronation? And it wasn't too bad.
273
1297827
3303
21:41
We did watch some of it.
274
1301163
1502
21:42
I know that, Steve.
275
1302665
1535
21:44
Mr. Steve. By the way, Mr.
276
1304200
3003
21:47
Steve is not here today.
277
1307203
1468
21:48
He's very busy doing something else.
278
1308671
2135
21:51
Very busy indeed.
279
1311173
2303
21:53
But he loved the music.
280
1313843
5372
21:59
All of the music that played during the coronation.
281
1319348
2970
22:02
He absolutely loved it.
282
1322718
2803
22:05
So I think Steve definitely
283
1325855
2335
22:09
was quite overwhelmed by the coronation.
284
1329392
3436
22:12
So not necessarily of the things that he saw, but
285
1332828
3037
22:15
the things that he heard with the beautiful music.
286
1335865
3470
22:20
But now most people have forgotten all about it.
287
1340002
3437
22:23
It's all gone.
288
1343439
2069
22:26
In a few moments,
289
1346609
967
22:27
we are talking about a particular subject.
290
1347576
2903
22:30
So this is, as you know, English Addict Extra.
291
1350713
3537
22:34
And today we are talking about things that are extra, some things that you have.
292
1354750
5939
22:41
But then you have a little bit more.
293
1361357
3036
22:44
Maybe you have extra
294
1364994
1868
22:48
extra food,
295
1368197
1969
22:50
maybe extra water
296
1370166
2502
22:52
or maybe an extra English addict life stream
297
1372668
5072
22:58
like this.
298
1378507
1969
25:19
It always amazes me how fast a mouse can move.
299
1519982
4304
25:24
And there was a very good example of that.
300
1524920
2869
25:30
So we do have lots of wildlife, lots of animals living in the back garden.
301
1530359
4838
25:35
And the mouse, that particular mouse
302
1535197
2736
25:38
is a regular visitor, as you can see.
303
1538900
2436
25:41
It has found a way into the garden by going through one of the walls.
304
1541370
5538
25:47
Hello to the live chat.
305
1547542
1202
25:48
Nice to see you here. I hope you're having a good day.
306
1548744
2669
25:51
We have something to talk about today because this is English addict Extra.
307
1551413
5405
25:57
So this is an extra live stream.
308
1557886
4304
26:02
Something extra for you to enjoy on a Wednesday.
309
1562190
5339
26:07
Oh. Very nice.
310
1567529
2035
26:09
Fancy pants, even.
311
1569564
1902
26:11
So we are talking about extra things.
312
1571466
2636
26:14
If you have something that is extra, something that
313
1574102
4571
26:19
maybe you want more of,
314
1579541
2936
26:22
you want more of something extra,
315
1582711
3270
26:26
something that has to be added on because it is required.
316
1586281
4371
26:31
So maybe you have so much, but
317
1591119
2703
26:34
you need extra, you need a little bit more.
318
1594089
4071
26:38
Maybe you need some extra time.
319
1598527
3103
26:42
Maybe you need some extra water.
320
1602130
3437
26:45
Perhaps you are going for a walk over
321
1605967
2903
26:48
a long, long distance
322
1608870
3070
26:52
and perhaps it is a hot day,
323
1612641
2269
26:54
so you will need to take some extra water with you.
324
1614910
4504
26:59
Something you need, something you need That's more than the thing
325
1619748
4037
27:04
you have at the present time.
326
1624085
2903
27:07
We often describe it as extra.
327
1627322
2236
27:10
So let's have a look at some of the words.
328
1630458
2269
27:12
You may have already realised that today's live stream is shorter than normal,
329
1632727
5072
27:18
so it isn't as long as the Sunday live stream.
330
1638099
3270
27:21
I will tell you that now.
331
1641703
2236
27:23
So we have a little bit more, a little bit more,
332
1643939
4170
27:28
a little bit more than what you have already.
333
1648376
3404
27:31
I suppose you might say that we all want a little bit more
334
1651980
3904
27:36
whatever it is, maybe a little bit more free time, perhaps a little bit more
335
1656217
6574
27:44
money,
336
1664259
1201
27:46
maybe a little bit more
337
1666027
2269
27:50
happiness in our lives.
338
1670265
2669
27:53
Like the guy I met this morning at the back of my house, he was really, really unhappy,
339
1673935
4805
27:58
I have to say.
340
1678740
1268
28:00
He might be the most unhappy person I've ever met.
341
1680008
2636
28:04
You might want an extra portion.
342
1684579
3337
28:08
Portion.
343
1688683
834
28:09
So when we say portion, we mean a part of something.
344
1689517
4538
28:14
A section of something, a portion,
345
1694255
3103
28:17
maybe a portion of pie, a portion of cake,
346
1697692
5405
28:23
something that is given in a certain amount.
347
1703565
3103
28:27
So maybe you have a portion of food,
348
1707035
3437
28:31
but it isn't enough.
349
1711039
2002
28:33
You would like an extra portion.
350
1713842
3603
28:38
So I always find this word quite interesting portion,
351
1718012
2803
28:42
a piece of something maybe something that is measured out in a certain
352
1722083
4705
28:46
quantity can be also portion.
353
1726788
3503
28:50
So perhaps you want a little bit more than you were given.
354
1730758
3370
28:54
You want an extra portion, you want more than you were given.
355
1734128
5306
29:00
You might want more of the same.
356
1740868
3003
29:04
So this is an expression we use quite often in English
357
1744305
3537
29:07
when we say we want more of the thing we are already enjoying.
358
1747842
5606
29:13
You want more of the same?
359
1753581
2636
29:16
Maybe you enjoyed a certain type of performance
360
1756784
4738
29:21
or a certain type of show,
361
1761522
2670
29:24
or maybe a certain type of music,
362
1764592
2603
29:27
and you like it so much.
363
1767929
2469
29:30
You want
364
1770698
1769
29:32
more, you want more of the same,
365
1772633
3337
29:36
you want more of that particular thing
366
1776337
2936
29:39
because you like it so much,
367
1779273
3838
29:43
you might want to repeat something again.
368
1783211
3737
29:47
So you could say that something that is being given extra
369
1787382
4170
29:51
might be an extra performance of the same thing.
370
1791986
5205
29:57
Quite often if you go to see a show,
371
1797992
2035
30:00
maybe something being performed on stage,
372
1800628
2769
30:03
you might want an on pool,
373
1803731
2770
30:06
you want to hear that song again, you want to see that performance.
374
1806834
4838
30:12
One more time.
375
1812006
1835
30:13
So quite often an encore will be given an encore,
376
1813841
5406
30:19
which of course comes from the French language.
377
1819814
4137
30:25
You might go on a journey or a trip.
378
1825720
3503
30:29
You might experience something that you enjoy.
379
1829657
3604
30:33
Perhaps you are at the fairground and you go on a ride
380
1833528
5572
30:40
and you enjoy it so much you might say,
381
1840001
2969
30:43
Let's go round again, let's go round again, Let's do it again.
382
1843304
4638
30:48
Maybe you are walking through a field and you go round in a circle.
383
1848342
5306
30:54
You enjoy the walk so much
384
1854081
2269
30:56
you say, Let's go round again, let's do it again.
385
1856651
2836
30:59
Let's go round again.
386
1859587
2703
31:02
I believe there was also a song in the 1970s called
387
1862590
4738
31:07
Let's Go Round Again.
388
1867695
2269
31:11
Mhm. You can have an extra portion of cake.
389
1871299
5939
31:17
It is true.
390
1877938
1736
31:19
And I'm sure someone will say Mr.
391
1879774
2669
31:22
Duncan, we think that you enjoy having an extra portion of cake.
392
1882443
6240
31:28
Well, you might be right, but not at the moment,
393
1888983
2335
31:31
because as you know, I am on a diet.
394
1891852
3838
31:35
I am losing a little bit of weight
395
1895990
1902
31:38
from around my stomach.
396
1898959
3304
31:42
It's going rather well, by the way.
397
1902263
2969
31:45
You might also have to do something extra
398
1905232
4839
31:51
during a procedure, something you are doing.
399
1911005
3703
31:55
So maybe if you are doing a certain thing,
400
1915209
2703
31:58
you might have to do it again more than once.
401
1918312
4004
32:02
For example, quite often if you are washing your hair,
402
1922650
3870
32:07
for example, sometimes you have to put the shampoo in your hair twice,
403
1927188
5538
32:13
so you will put the shampoo in your hair
404
1933093
2937
32:16
and then you will rinse the shampoo out of your hair.
405
1936630
4471
32:21
But then you have to do it again.
406
1941368
2002
32:23
Quite often they will say, rinse and repeat.
407
1943437
3537
32:28
So something you have to do more than once as an instruction.
408
1948309
3870
32:32
Quite often, if you read the label
409
1952846
2536
32:36
on certain types of cosmetics.
410
1956116
3437
32:40
Shampoo is a good example.
411
1960688
2168
32:43
You rinse and then you repeat.
412
1963257
3403
32:46
It means you do it again.
413
1966894
1768
32:48
So you have to do something more than once.
414
1968662
3037
32:52
You have to do it one more time.
415
1972399
2503
32:57
You might have to add some more.
416
1977638
3737
33:01
So extra in this particular sentence is
417
1981875
3370
33:05
you have to add something to the thing
418
1985512
3604
33:09
you've made already or something you have already.
419
1989116
3337
33:12
You need to add some more.
420
1992753
2836
33:16
I suppose the best way of expressing
421
1996223
2402
33:18
this is if you are adding ingredients into a meal,
422
1998625
4739
33:23
maybe you are putting things into a recipe.
423
2003797
3237
33:27
Perhaps you want to add a little bit more sugar or salt.
424
2007735
5205
33:33
You are adding extra.
425
2013307
2169
33:35
You add some more.
426
2015476
2235
33:38
So you might describe this also as as an instruction.
427
2018011
4405
33:43
Maybe you have to add some more salt
428
2023117
3003
33:46
to a recipe because perhaps you want a little bit more flavour.
429
2026920
4171
33:52
So to add some more means
430
2032092
3170
33:55
that you are putting extra in.
431
2035629
2302
34:00
Here is a famous line
432
2040534
2469
34:03
from a very well known story called Oliver Twist.
433
2043003
3337
34:07
Please
434
2047307
1802
34:09
can I have some more, please?
435
2049309
3771
34:13
Can I have some more?
436
2053647
2803
34:16
So maybe you want extra.
437
2056450
2035
34:18
Maybe this is a way of asking for more than what you already have.
438
2058752
5172
34:24
Maybe you are eating a meal.
439
2064391
1635
34:26
Maybe you have some soup or some porridge, and perhaps you want some more.
440
2066026
5272
34:31
So you might ask if you can have extra.
441
2071698
3804
34:35
Can I have some more, please?
442
2075869
3404
34:39
Can I have some more tea,
443
2079806
2703
34:43
please?
444
2083577
400
34:43
Can I have some more coffee?
445
2083977
3037
34:47
I want extra.
446
2087014
3236
34:50
Because once is not enough,
447
2090517
2936
34:56
you might have to put more on all in or over.
448
2096657
6740
35:03
So again, you are having to add extra.
449
2103897
3871
35:08
You might have to put more on or in or over.
450
2108168
5839
35:14
So all those might be described as directions.
451
2114408
4170
35:18
Things you have to do.
452
2118578
1769
35:20
You might have to put more sugar on your grapes fruit.
453
2120347
5205
35:25
You might have to put more salt in
454
2125986
3670
35:30
the stew.
455
2130891
1501
35:32
You might have to put something over.
456
2132492
2436
35:36
You might sprinkle flour
457
2136463
2636
35:39
over the dough before you start to mix it properly.
458
2139733
5072
35:47
Beatriz says the word encore is new.
459
2147207
4137
35:51
Yes, we often say on call when we want something to be repeated.
460
2151745
5505
35:57
You want an extra performance.
461
2157818
2602
36:00
You want something to go on longer
462
2160453
3437
36:04
by repeating it.
463
2164958
2102
36:07
So yes, we often use the word encore.
464
2167060
3103
36:11
You might ask for an extra portion.
465
2171831
3471
36:16
Can I have an extra portion of pie?
466
2176970
3637
36:22
Can I have an extra sprinkle?
467
2182742
3637
36:27
I love that word.
468
2187047
834
36:27
By the way, the word sprinkle means you are putting something on,
469
2187881
4805
36:33
but only a very small amount,
470
2193453
2870
36:36
a very fine amount of something.
471
2196790
3103
36:39
You sprinkle or something
472
2199893
3336
36:44
you might have an extra dash of something.
473
2204197
4505
36:49
So the word dash is very similar to sprinkle.
474
2209135
3470
36:52
It means a small amount
475
2212973
2769
36:55
you are putting it over or in.
476
2215775
3304
36:59
So when we say an extra dash,
477
2219913
2135
37:02
we mean a little bit more, a little bit extra.
478
2222315
4338
37:08
And then, of course,
479
2228021
867
37:08
we can say an extra serving of something.
480
2228888
3370
37:12
Maybe you are having a dinner party
481
2232759
3603
37:16
and maybe someone else arrives who you weren't expecting.
482
2236496
4004
37:21
You might have to come up or you may might have to produce
483
2241101
4137
37:25
an extra serving because there is an extra person
484
2245739
4471
37:30
joining the party.
485
2250210
2702
37:36
Extra might also be too much.
486
2256716
4438
37:41
You might have too much of something.
487
2261221
2269
37:43
So extra can also be too much.
488
2263957
3603
37:47
Maybe you have too much of something in your food and then the taste will be spoilt.
489
2267827
6874
37:55
So it is possible to have too much.
490
2275101
3203
37:58
Sometimes having extra
491
2278838
2336
38:02
can cause problems or difficulties.
492
2282742
2870
38:06
So sometimes it is wise to make sure that
493
2286079
2536
38:08
if you do have extra make it isn't too much.
494
2288681
5039
38:15
You might put too much curry powder
495
2295321
3304
38:19
in your food and then it's too spicy.
496
2299259
2569
38:22
It's too hot. You can't eat it.
497
2302095
2502
38:25
It's too much curry powder.
498
2305131
2669
38:28
So even though you put extra in the food,
499
2308268
3603
38:32
it might be too much.
500
2312672
2035
38:35
Perhaps you put too much sugar in your tea or coffee.
501
2315241
5239
38:41
I know. I used to.
502
2321047
1568
38:42
I used to always put lots of tea and lots of sugar in my tea
503
2322615
5506
38:48
and in my coffee and I would do it quite often.
504
2328221
3136
38:51
But these days I am cutting back.
505
2331357
2603
38:54
I am cutting down on the amount of sugar I eat.
506
2334794
3971
39:01
Hello, Tomek.
507
2341000
1101
39:02
Oh, Tomek is here.
508
2342101
1468
39:03
Hello, Tomek. It's nice to see you here today.
509
2343569
3037
39:06
Are you looking forward to the big Paris rendezvous?
510
2346939
4371
39:11
I wonder.
511
2351344
1368
39:13
Too much love will kill you.
512
2353012
2169
39:15
Well, too much of anything can be bad for you.
513
2355815
3337
39:19
Even love, even kissing and cuddling might be bad for you.
514
2359152
4638
39:24
Perhaps you spend too much time in bed with your lover and then you don't lose.
515
2364157
6272
39:30
And maybe your health will suffer because you are spending so much time together,
516
2370530
4938
39:36
kissing and cuddling.
517
2376803
3103
39:39
You see.
518
2379906
634
39:40
So you might be right that Tomek too much love will kill you.
519
2380540
5205
39:46
I believe also that was a song by
520
2386012
3436
39:50
Freddie Mercury and Queen as well.
521
2390016
2669
39:53
I think so.
522
2393052
1101
39:54
So you may have too much curry powder, too much sugar,
523
2394787
4705
40:00
you might have too much exercise,
524
2400092
2636
40:03
you might do too much exercising, and perhaps you do damage to your body.
525
2403462
4738
40:08
This is always something that I, I think about
526
2408534
3504
40:12
when I think about looking after my body.
527
2412538
2603
40:15
I think it is very easy to do something too,
528
2415374
2503
40:19
even if that thing appears to be good for you.
529
2419578
3204
40:23
So I do think doing something more than you need to
530
2423149
4471
40:28
quite often can be bad for you,
531
2428087
3203
40:31
especially things like exercise, or
532
2431724
2636
40:34
maybe if you are doing too much of something
533
2434360
3036
40:37
so you might eat too much food,
534
2437763
2136
40:40
you might also exercise too much.
535
2440433
2836
40:43
Maybe you will damage one of the muscles in your body.
536
2443536
3203
40:47
Or maybe you will cause yourself some sort of injury
537
2447006
3904
40:52
as these says, extra hours.
538
2452778
3504
40:56
Yes, I suppose so.
539
2456716
1301
40:58
If you are working for a company, maybe they want you to work
540
2458017
4838
41:03
for some extra time, some extra hours.
541
2463489
4338
41:08
So the hours refer to the number of hours that you work,
542
2468227
4905
41:13
maybe the number of hours you work each day, your hours.
543
2473632
4972
41:18
So maybe you have to work extra hours, more hours.
544
2478938
5138
41:27
Yes, I was right.
545
2487780
2202
41:30
Too much love will kill you as a song by Queen.
546
2490382
3537
41:33
You are right.
547
2493919
1969
41:37
Oh, what about an extra portion of cheese?
548
2497456
3337
41:40
Well, I agree with you that if there's one thing you know about me
549
2500793
4037
41:44
is I love food, especially food that is unhealthy.
550
2504830
3871
41:48
And yes, cheese is very high up there.
551
2508701
2469
41:51
I am looking forward, by the way, to trying
552
2511170
3470
41:55
some cheese, but also some lovely traditional French bread
553
2515975
4170
42:01
when we are in Paris for the big rendezvous.
554
2521347
3203
42:05
I'm really looking forward to that.
555
2525017
2069
42:07
I have a feeling maybe by the time I come back
556
2527086
2769
42:09
from Paris, perhaps
557
2529855
2403
42:13
we'll have put a little bit of weight on.
558
2533492
2703
42:16
We will have to wait and see.
559
2536528
3471
42:20
It's also possible not to have enough of something.
560
2540532
4472
42:25
So maybe if you served a certain type food
561
2545270
5106
42:30
and maybe you want a little bit more salt
562
2550376
2869
42:33
or a little bit extra sugar.
563
2553679
2135
42:36
So sometimes it is possible
564
2556315
2135
42:38
to have not enough of something,
565
2558984
3404
42:42
so you want a little bit more of it.
566
2562788
2169
42:45
So if there is not enough quite often you will add extra,
567
2565457
5072
42:50
you will put extra onto the food,
568
2570929
3037
42:54
you will add a little bit more.
569
2574466
2569
42:59
We can also make something extra
570
2579505
2435
43:02
by extending it or making it longer.
571
2582141
5372
43:07
So maybe you add some extra to a certain thing.
572
2587946
5773
43:14
We often think of time as being extra, so maybe in sports.
573
2594086
6073
43:20
I suppose a good example would be football.
574
2600159
2335
43:22
In football you might have some extra time
575
2602761
3904
43:27
at the end of each half of the match
576
2607132
4571
43:32
to make up for the stoppages when there were moments where the match had to stop.
577
2612271
5038
43:37
So quite often they will have extra time.
578
2617809
3504
43:41
In football you extend something, so if something is short
579
2621947
6640
43:49
but you want it to be longer,
580
2629087
2403
43:52
it can be anything.
581
2632791
2102
43:55
You extend it, you make it longer,
582
2635494
4404
44:00
something is extended.
583
2640232
3070
44:04
You can say that it is extra long,
584
2644469
3370
44:08
so maybe your break for lunch is only half an hour,
585
2648307
5472
44:14
but you want to extend it
586
2654479
2837
44:18
to an hour to one hour.
587
2658250
2369
44:21
You want to make it longer.
588
2661019
2036
44:23
You need extra time.
589

So that is today's subject.
590

44:30
Quite often in life you will notice in life quite often
591
2670128
4438
44:34
there is not enough of what you want
592
2674966
2803
44:39
time.
593
2679404
1402
44:41
There is never enough time, never enough
594
2681239
2136
44:43
time, money There never seems to be enough money.
595
2683375
3570
44:47
You always seem to need a little bit more.
596
2687245
2403
44:50
What about what else could you want more of?
597
2690449
4204
44:55
I suppose if you are hungry, maybe your meal is not enough.
598
2695020
4504
44:59
Maybe you want a little bit more because it hasn't satisfied
599
2699524
3771
45:03
your appetite.
600
2703295
2802
45:06
Tomic says.
601
2706465
2635
45:09
You might extend a contract.
602
2709100
3471
45:12
Yes, maybe if you are working for a company and perhaps they like you,
603
2712704
5038
45:18
maybe you are a very good worker, a very good employee,
604
2718109
4472
45:23
maybe they will extend your contract.
605
2723215
3136
45:26
They will allow you to stay with that company for longer,
606
2726718
4805
45:35
which is better for using
607
2735961
2202
45:38
extra hours of work or extra times of work.
608
2738163
4237
45:42
We normally say extra hours,
609
2742867
2136
45:45
so ours refers to your work period.
610
2745403
3971
45:49
So each hour is
611
2749674
2303
45:53
a section or a portion of your working day.
612
2753278
4037
45:57
So quite often we use the word hours.
613
2757682
2469
46:00
Maybe next week you have to work extra hours.
614
2760719
3803
46:05
So yes, we normally say extra hours.
615
2765890
3037
46:09
So I hope that is helpful to you as these.
616
2769294
2803
46:12
Hello, Malia, Malia Nasrat, Hello to you.
617
2772697
4905
46:17
Thank you very much for joining me today.
618
2777702
2136
46:19
And for those who are wondering why I'm here, the reason is because
619
2779838
4437
46:24
we're doing an extra live stream
620
2784442
2937
46:28
like we used to a long time ago.
621
2788279
3170
46:32
So we are doing that.
622
2792016
1202
46:33
We are having an extra live stream during the week.
623
2793218
5505
46:38
English addict, extra.
624
2798823
2002
46:42
So your extra hours, if you
625
2802260
2069
46:44
are working for a company and you are given extra hours,
626
2804329
4371
46:49
you might describe that as overtime.
627
2809000
3203
46:52
Your overtime is the amount of time
628
2812837
3437
46:56
you work over your normal contract.
629
2816274
4438
47:01
So maybe if you are working full 30 hours during the week,
630
2821079
4738
47:05
maybe you have to do some overtime,
631
2825917
2703
47:08
maybe you have to work longer than that.
632
2828920
3237
47:12
Perhaps you have to do another 10 hours
633
2832457
2836
47:15
so your working week will
634
2835660
2336
47:19
be extended.
635
2839297
2102
47:21
What about the word expand, huh?
636
2841966
3203
47:25
Well, expand is very interesting because expand
637
2845470
3503
47:29
can also refer to the volume of something.
638
2849407
4771
47:34
How much something holds?
639
2854279
2902
47:37
Maybe if you are blowing up a balloon.
640
2857649
2502
47:40
So imagine
641
2860385
1902
47:46
you are blowing up a balloon.
642
2866357
1735
47:48
You will notice that the balloon will expand the volume of air.
643
2868092
5773
47:53
Inside the balloon will increase,
644
2873965
3070
47:57
and then the outer surface of the balloon will expand.
645
2877669
4738
48:02
So quite often expand refers
646
2882774
2936
48:05
to volume or quantity.
647
2885710
3337
48:09
As something grows, extend
648
2889547
3203
48:13
normally refers to length of something length.
649
2893151
4704
48:18
So that is the difference.
650
2898189
2369
48:22
I will be going in a moment.
651
2902160
1968
48:24
So this is a short live stream for Wednesday,
652
2904128
3904
48:28
so I will be here for just a short time today.
653
2908466
3437
48:32
But don't worry because I am back with you on Sunday.
654
2912170
4905
48:37
We are back with you on Sunday from 2 p.m.
655
2917508
3404
48:41
UK time and on Sunday Mr.
656
2921045
2436
48:43
Steve will be here.
657
2923481
2235
48:45
So don't worry, don't fear.
658
2925716
2737
48:49
Do not have sleepless nights.
659
2929120
2469
48:54
I will be back on Sunday and Mr.
660
2934125
2335
48:56
Steve will also be here as well.
661
2936460
2303
48:58
So I hope you will join us then.
662
2938763
2536
49:02
Thank you very much for your company today.
663
2942500
2202
49:04
I will see you on Sunday and I hope you enjoy the rest of today.
664
2944735
4772
49:09
I hope the weather is nice where you are.
665
2949507
2102
49:11
It would appear that everything has settled down now
666
2951876
3070
49:15
because we were expecting some thunderstorms this afternoon.
667
2955346
3437
49:19
But as you can see behind me, the weather is actually quite nice.
668
2959183
4838
49:24
I will be back with you on Sunday.
669
2964722
2069
49:26
Don't forget the time. 2 p.m.
670
2966791
2436
49:29
UK time is when I'm back with you.
671
2969493
3737
49:33
And if you want to watch this live stream
672
2973631
3070
49:36
again, you can of course watch it again
673
2976701
3003
49:40
and there will be captions later on as well.
674
2980237
4138
49:45
Although I've noticed these days that YouTube
675
2985643
2502
49:48
is taking a long time to actually process my live streams.
676
2988145
5573
49:54
So there might be a slight delay between
677
2994051
3003
49:57
the subtitles appearing
678
2997455
2402
50:00
after the live stream has finished.
679
3000257
3037
50:03
So there might be a little bit of a delay.
680
3003594
3103
50:06
But yes, there will be captions coming later on as well.
681
3006997
4004
50:11
Thank you, Beatriz.
682
3011669
