Live English - From England 5th August 2018 - Forgive and Forget - Fun in the Sun - ODD WORDS

doop doop doop do do it is a glorious Sunday here in England and I hope where you are

everything is shiny and bright as well

here we go again it is a Sunday and as I mentioned it's an absolutely glorious

day look at that alive view looking out into the distance you can see that the

sun is shining brightly it is a very hot day and well I'm feeling very

adventurous today because we are going to have a little break here for a few

days so I thought today we would go outside so that is what we will be doing

a little bit later on so I hope you will stick around lots of things coming your way today

hi everybody this is mr. Duncan in England how are you today

are you okay I hope so are you feeling happy because the Sun is out and

everything is ok so be happy smile it isn't against the law there is no law

against being happy so smile and enjoy this thing we call life

so here we go it is Sunday and it's mr. Duncan that's me by the way for those who are flicking

around because I know many people do they like to click and flick around the

internet so perhaps you are going through some of the YouTube channels and

you have stumbled across me my name is Duncan and I teach English and I've been

doing that for over 11 years I'm not joking I've been on longer than most of

the big YouTube stars so if you name any YouTube stars I bet I've been on longer

than they have I started doing this way back in 2006 when YouTube was just a

little puppy so many years ago 2018 is my 12th year

on YouTube I've spent the last 12 years of my life doing this can you believe it

huh I certainly can't so here we go it's Sunday and I hope you are feeling great

oh I can't get enough of the sunshine today I am really really loving all of

this sunshine would you like to see a beautiful view from the other evening

because everything is looking nice and many of the farmers are now gathering

their crops so let's take a look at some of the views right now and there you can

see in the distance the farmer is gathering all his crop I think that

particular field has barley in it and there you can see one of the beautiful

sunsets that we experienced this week we had some glorious weather it's

incredible and I'm feeling particularly excited today I'm feeling very excited

because I have heard that the weather this week is going to be very nice as

well ooh what do we have here we have some

farming equipment some things that are used to gather in the crops so let's

have a closer look shall we well that is something used for

gathering the grain that is part of the thing that reaps the grain it collects

it it grabs it and there you can see something called a combine harvester a

very complicated piece of equipment it cuts it gathers and it throws all of the

unwanted bits of chef as we call it out of the back so there you can see a

closer look part of the combine harvester it is a

huge piece of equipment it's massive and quite often around here at this time of

year you will see many farmers gathering their crops in fact this year they are

doing it slightly earlier than normal so they are doing it earlier this year

because of the harsh weather we have had such a lot of sunshine and it's been so

hot as well very hot so the farmers are very busy at the moment

gathering their crops and there you can see what is left after the farmer has

gathered all the grain you can see what is left so that eventually will be

gathered as well so nothing goes to waste

everything is used so you can see there what remains is called straw and it will

be bailed and it will be used during the winter months to feed the animals so

when there is no grass when everything is in short supply during those cold

winter months the cattle and the sheep will have something to eat so there I

hope you enjoyed those views something a little different lots of things going on

at the moment around where I live because the community I live in is

mainly farming lots of farmers lots of agriculture around

the area in which I live so I hope you enjoyed that something a little

different oh also this morning I woke up

especially early this morning I wanted to wake up early so I could see the

sunrise and it was beautiful it was very nice and also I was lucky enough to see

the Bulls see the cattle walking across the field at the back of my house would

you like to see that as well oh I am really spoiling you today

so there that is the view from my bathroom window so I was in the bathroom

I think I was actually sitting on the toilet at the time I think I was

actually on the toilet when I film this okay I wasn't really so there you can

see the cattle going across the field and I think one of them is having a poop

isn't that nice that's good that's nice I didn't notice that earlier I didn't

realize that one of the cattle was actually having a poopoo so there you

can see the view at the back and I thought that the cattle would be unhappy

during this hot weather but they seemed quite happy they seemed quite content

and during the daytime when it's very hot they always find somewhere to rest

normally a shady corner safe in the shade so that's normally what the cattle

do when the weather is like this they normally like to lie in the shade so

there they are that was filmed this morning through my very dirty bathroom

window it looks as if that window needs a clean I think I'll do that next week

so it's Sunday afternoon it's live English I hope everything is ok where

you are I'm feeling especially excited because mr. Steve and myself we are

going to have a few days of rest relaxation and maybe a little adventure

as well so we won't be here on Wednesday but we

will be here next Sunday so don't forget that we won't be here on Wednesday night

with our Leighton live we are having a little break for the week but we will be

back next Sunday and it is a very special day because it's my birthday

next Sunday mr. Steve will be here later on he will be here with what will he be

well I think he's got his register yes do you remember on when

deny mr. steve was talking all about his register and it looks as if mr. steve is

going to be doing that so he has made a record of some of the names some of the

people on the live chat and he will be checking to make sure you are here today

yes mr. Steve will be here at around about 2:30 did it get colder in here or

is it just me I think it's just you mr. Steve definitely I I have a strange

feeling it's mr. Steve yes definitely so there he is the plenty more mr. Steve

coming later on I hope you are ready for that oh yes of course we have the live

chat as well we mustn't forget that lots of people on the live chat Steve was

getting very excited last week because he has made a list of all the people who

are now on the live chat and he's made a very long list and apparently now I was

really surprised about this apparently there are a hundred and thirty-five a

hundred and thirty-five regular people on the live chat a hundred and

thirty-five I didn't realize it was that many so mr. Steve will be talking about

his list his register and something else we want to do today we want to find out

where people are in the world because we are very interested to find out who is

watching and where you are watching so that will be happening today also we'll

be talking about forgiveness are you a person who forgives easily because some

people don't like to forgive whilst others forgive very easily so if a

friend or relative has done something to you or someone has crossed you they have

done something bad to you do you forgive them easily

are you a forgiving person and do you offer Redemption easily we'll be talking

about that later on also we have some holiday expressions and some quotes as

well because we are having a little holiday this week I'm very excited and

mr. Steve is feeling especially excited because he doesn't have to work for ten

days so he's feeling very excited about that so the live chat I've mentioned it

already and there it is the live chat is now on I wonder who was first on the

live chat shall we have a look let's go right back to the beginning of the live

chat and see who was first Wow lots of people are on a live chat Blue Thunder

hello blue thunder congratulations you are first on the live chat so I think

that deserves a round of applause

Blue Thunder well done and also andrew is second hi Andrew nice to see you here

that's your second mention today as sorry hello Azari new dean nice to see

you as well we will be making a note today of people watching and where you

are watching we are very interested to find out where you are watching in the

world and there is a reason for that we are trying to find out how many people

watch around the world and we are especially interested to find out where

people are watching so we would really like to find that out I think the

information will be very very useful I have a fly at the moment that is being

very annoying it keeps flying around my head so I may

have to do something about that a little bit later on Mavi hello Mavi watching in

Turkey oh hello there we have been to Turkey we've been there twice and we had

a lovely time Lewis is here hello Lewis Chris is here also let's have some fun

learning English yes for those who are not familiar the

reason why we do this is to give you a chance to listen to English being spoken

so you can hear the English language being used and can I also explain that

most of this is not rehearsed so everything you hear today

everything you see is not rehearsed it is all spontaneous I love that word I

love it so much Belarus series here welcome to my sunny English it is a

sunny Sunday today I must admit it's a beautiful day it's so hot outside and I

will be talking to mr. Steve he will be in the garden a little bit later on in

very happy Thank You Connell yes we are taking a little break

up very early this morning Jeff is wishing me a happy birthday for next

week yes next Sunday it will be my birthday I

will be another year older oh dear also hyung Trin and mm hello in men I

like the place where you live a house surrounded by nature and animals

everywhere what can someone ask for or what more what more that someone ask for

well I love it here I love being near the nature and we will

be taking a look at a lot of nature today would you like to see something

very unusual and interesting you know I like to show you things that are strange

sometimes a little unusual so let's have a look at something now have you ever

seen a baby pigeon now there are some pigeons actually nesting outside one of

the windows of the house and this week the small baby pigeons came out and

luckily I had my camera very handy so let's have a look shall we

so here is one of the baby pigeons and this pigeon had just emerged from the

nest there it is so this is a baby pigeon a lot of people ask why don't we

ever see baby pigeons and there is a reason for that and that's because they

stay in the nest until they are fully grown so that's the reason why you never

see baby pigeons or chicks because they always stay in the nest until they are

fully grown and there you can see a new pigeon a little baby pigeon and that one

has just left the nest it is preparing its feathers it is getting ready to fly

for the first time so I hope you enjoyed that and that's one of the things I love

about living in the countryside there is always something to see there is always

something special to look out so every time I look at my window my bedroom

window or maybe the window in my studio there is always something going on we

will have another look at the baby pigeons later on because I have

something else to show you now this is an excerpt from one of my full

English lessons a lot of people like to watch my full English lessons so here we

go this is taken from full English number 24 and in this video we will look

at lots of very interesting subjects and look out for the beautiful countryside

views

one of the things I love about English is how some words sound made-up and

unreal some English words are amusing to say and hear words with strong consonant

sounds tend to be the ones that stand out the most words such as pimple bubble

nibble pump nanny wobble blink if you are trying to be humorous then the use

of certain words will guarantee that laughter will be heard we often make

embarrassing things seem less humiliating by giving them funny names

I need a wee-wee I need to take a poop the tents of certain English words could

also sound unreal or made-up for example the past tense of dive is douve the past

tense of forbid is forbade the past tense of forsake is forsook the past

tense of shrink is shrank the past tense of shine is shauna the past tense of

leap is lept another curious word is manslaughter this word means the crime

of killing a person without premeditation or malice aforethought a

non intentional killing is manslaughter what is interesting about this word is

if you split the letters in a certain place then you get men's laughter which

seems very inappropriate given the nature of the original word manslaughter

man's laughter

do you like my new coat I bought it in the sales I thought I would treat myself

what is it about treating yourself to something new that makes it such a joy

sometimes it is nice to treat yourself to something it doesn't have to be

something large and expensive you can treat yourself to something small to

this new coat is not only my treat but it is also something I needed my

previous coat is now old and worn out which is not surprising as I've had it

for over 10 years I don't buy new clothes very often I might buy the

occasional t-shirt and maybe a pair of socks to replace a worn-out pair I'm

certainly no big spender the past tensor buy is bought you buy something you have

bought something not to be confused with the past tense of bring which is brought

can you see what is hanging from this tree come on take a closer look don't be

shy

what you can see here is a certain type of fruit

these are damsels a damson is a plum like fruit that grows in the summer both

here in Britain and across Europe their flavour is not all that sweet

in fact they can sometimes taste quite sour you might even say that the damson

has an astringent taste which can be quite harsh and bitter

despite that damsons do make great Jam which is exactly what I will be doing

soon with these particular damsons hanging here there are enough damsons

here to make over 30 pots of jam which is more than enough to keep me going

until next summer at the end of this season I will cut this damson tree back

a little as it is starting to become too large and is in danger of over growing

to cut back a tree or bush so is to prevent it becoming too large is called

pruning this damson tree needs to be pruned I will prune it I will give it a

trim

did you do to do I hope you enjoyed that

and of course you can watch many of my live English lessons on my youtube

channel

dip dip dip do live from England it is the 5th of August I can't believe that

it's August already 2018 is going by so fast and it's mr. Duncan that's me live

on YouTube oh there you are hello there it's a glorious day here in England I

hope everything is ok where you are I hope your weekend is going fine it is so

hot here and I thought we are going to be away for a few days because we're not

going to be here on Wednesday so we are going to take a little rest mr. Steve

and myself and I thought well seeing that the weather is so nice seeing that

everything is so lovely I thought we would go outside and waiting for us

outside in the hot sunshine braving the elements here he is it's mr. Steve hello

hello can you hear me mr. Duncan I can't he I can hear you perfectly hello

everybody mr. Duncan's got me outside in the hot

Sun that's why I've got my hat on but there's a big screen in front of me so

hopefully I'm not gonna get sunburned I didn't have time to put any factor 30 on

mr. Duncan so I hope I'm not going to give away on holiday

burnt to a frazzle well there's one piece of good news at least you are in

the shade there I'm in the shade you have taken care of me but should your

screens blow away in the wind I will be exposed to the elements no that's not

going to happen Oh mr. Duncan look what I've got in my hand here yes we have the

register now this is this is something that you mentioned on Wednesday night

and it's something that you seem very keen to keep doing so so please first of

all explain why you've done this well I just thought I don't really know whose

keeps coming on everybody's names I'm getting familiar with some of the

names but we see a lot of the same names coming every week every Wednesday every

Sunday which is fantastic but I wanted to see on each day who is there and who

isn't because if you're not there see this is what I'm getting annoyed about

now if you're not going to be there I need a doctor's note or a note from your

parents to say why you're not attending mr. Duncan's live English lessons so

it's a bit it's a bit of fun really you must have a good excuse it's a bit of

fun but I've been sitting upstairs watching the first half an hour and I've

been ticking off because you wouldn't believe it but yes look here's

everybody's names not incredible of the people who have I have just I went over

the last two lessons last set Sundays and last Wednesday's and I wrote down

everybody's name and I've been ticking them off in the first half an hour

so I've probably missed awesome we've got Alex Mac wild we've got Alice and

this time doing this an alphabetical order we've got accent in Spain it's 38

degrees they're very hot apparently we've got Belarus here of course we've

got blue thunder Chris we've got Jamila from Algiers that's the other thing I

want to know where everybody is so I've got a little column here for

where people are Francesco Francisco Munoz for example we've got a men from

Tunisia is here Jeff is here Julie ji is here mavey is here we've got

Mika who said she's very hot as well and has been hot for some time can I just

say Steve I I think maybe not on your list as present is sook at SU cat da da

well I have got su cat down here okay but I haven't seen her yet she said yeah

oh I must have been you see I was only upstairs for 20 minutes I didn't have

time so here we go just to prove this is live and you see your name there a su

cat I'm going to give you a big tick for today's lesson and you're just under su

Jin from South Korea who is also here so I hope you like this new TS TS has

been an earthquake yes apparently I think is that Indonesia - yes yes right

Indonesia I'm gonna put that in I need all this information for next time

there's been loads of people which who weren't on the last two vodka man's here

of course we've got Andrew we've got a low gear from Vietnam we've got as

Raheen a je s Hong train V TAS JH Lim gh Alto oh we've got so many it's Colombia

we've got hasit from Colombia Raji from Bangladesh hummed in from Vietnam we've

got Germany a drought Schmidt from Germany we've got the loads from Ukraine

oh we've got Columbia we've got everybody watching today it's incredible

mr. Duncan you know one of the problems with doing this Steve is sometimes when

the live chat is very busy so when all the names appear on our screen here

sometimes it's very easy to miss those names out and and I feel very I feel

slightly ashamed that I don't say hello to more people I know it is Martha from

Poland Mario from Brazil Fernando from Brazil DJ Tran oh there's too many names

I can't mention them all so apologies but that's just in the first 25 minutes

so feel free to say you're here and I shall take you off my list this is a

real list as you can see I can I can tell you who else is a Titan mr. Duncan

where there Steve I can tell you who else is here

go on have you got JC Jordi JC let's have a look it's all in alphabetical

order JC Jordi look there is your name can you

see that JC Jordi is here so I'm ticking you off now that you were here on Sunday

the 5th did the fifth is it today mr. Duncan it is the 5th of August 5th of

August I've got date country date

and what put the ticks in the wrong box never mind and another thing another

thing we want to find out Steve another thing we are interested in finding out

is where people are because yes it is strange that we have people all around

the world watching and I think we've been doing this for a long time and you

almost forget that there are people now around the world watching this and and

you can't you kind of become just so used to it you don't think oh my

goodness there are people now around the world watching us so we are interested

to find out where you are as well maybe we won't do that today because it might

take a long time but certainly when we come back next weekend after our little

break next Sunday by the way is my birthday as well

we will probably try to find out where people are I'm thinking of designing a

nice map and then we can we can find out where people are watching and how many

people around the world are watching in certain places that would be a great

idea mr. Duncan yes I think it's a lot a map of your influence around the world

yes if anyone wants to say they're here who hasn't then we will add them tick

them off the list and then after the after the show today I'm going to go

through all the live chat and add everybody's name that isn't already on

my list well I've already got 130 odd names and today just by looking in the

first 20 minutes there's about another 50 to add the class is getting bigger

and bigger yes and we need we need some classroom assistance I think mr. Duncan

III was amazed because you you said last night that you had added all the names

up in there were a hundred and thirty-five that was just from the last

two livestream it's incredible and and just in the last 20 in the first 20

minutes of the show the rubato the but there are 30 or 40 people who hadn't

hadn't been watching for the other two so that the class is getting bigger and

bigger yes and there's a aero plane going overhead mr. Duncan

it's a biplane is it really it's a biplane and there's there's a

woman on each wing it's a biplanes it's a aeroplane with two wings over and I

think they're building a Hollywood yes I got buster that sounded very low it was

very low it I thought you were gonna get taken away then no I could see the pilot

so you've got something to show as I believe have I certainly yeah what do

you want me to show mr. dink are you thirsty by the way not at the moment I'm

fine I took a big gulp of water okay because if you're going outside if you

need some water I will pass some water to you so don't worry through the window

I don't want you to suffer you see I'm okay at the moment I'm fine I may need

to come into the shade in about ten minutes but I'll be fine for the time

being it's bright I know it's very bright that's all right

now on the live chat we have Alex Alex has asked does YouTube provide this

information where people are well they do but sometimes the information isn't

very clear because sometimes people don't say where they are when they

register and of course there are people who watch me who are not registered or

they don't have a youtube account so sometimes that information can be a

little inaccurate and also I don't I don't necessarily trust YouTube's

algorithms to be honest or their analytics so either I tend not to trust

them to be honest so I would rather find out for myself

Andrew makes an interesting point he said and I said this this morning it

would be better if this could be automated in some way because it's a

difficult job for me to take it buddy of Alamgir Husein says what why

isn't my name on the list you are here there you are

but I've written you in manually today because obviously for whatever reason

you couldn't be here well you might have been here so I didn't see on the list

but I've written you down and you're going to be on my Excel spreadsheet

here's here's another one for you finish here's another one for you Steve

Mavi oh ok let's have a look because ma vie is s ma vie asks how can we register

Mavi Doris an Ivor already there we go can you see that you're already ticked

off there I ticked you off earlier because you must have come on early

today so know what all all that's happening or what I did was I looked

through mr. Duncan's just the last two livestreams

and I just went through the live chat and I took everybody's name that I could

see on the live chat I couldn't watch the whole thing and I just put

everybody's names down so for example I've got a colour code here so some are

in black some are in orange and the orange were the people that were there

on Wednesday and the black are the people that were there on the Sunday but

a wasp in front of me now mr. Duncan it's not after me because you got stung

by a wasp last week it just landed on you and stung you for no reason at all

to find that we have so many people all over the place it's fantastic absolutely

fantastic and also there is someone called Anna

Rita I've got Anna and guess where she is ah where she is watching in Tuscany

test Oh buted Tuscany Melek lush very lucky which is that I think that's Italy

isn't it Tuscany is a beautiful place that's where that Tuscany is where

British people aspire to go on holiday because if you say you've gone to on

holiday to Tuscany Oh people think that you're very cultured and very highbrow

expensive place to go lovely wine Tuscany region for wine so yes and it

you're on there and I've now put Tuscany by your name so it's great to know we

off have you got have you got Rita Gomez I'm Brazil way to go are you miss Rita

interesting is this I don't know is it is it only interesting to you Steve okay

what we feedback we want feedback is this a good idea or not probably we're

spending too long yes perhaps were spending too long well this is this is

the first time we've done it it is Rita I've seen Rita somewhere but I can't

think from Brazil you're on you're on the list I'll check later on so see me

but I can't find it right now we have all we have another we have a new person

Julia Julia now Julia we've got Julie gee haven't we yes we have Julia I've

got Julie G and now we've got Julia Julia kamay Lichter or liquor I shall

look later watching in Poland Poland I know that we do it along with Martha

then yes we do we do have quite a few people watching in Poland

Martha is watching in Poland at the moment as well so that's at least two of

you watching in Poland fantastic well this is so exciting like I spend all two

hours doing this mr. Duncan yes I'm sure it'll be very interesting for everyone

you know I like facts and figures yes I know

so here's something we're talking about today I mentioned it earlier we are

we're talking about forgiveness now a lot of people are taught at an

early age to forgive if a friend does something bad to you if someone does

something that isn't very nice we are often encouraged to forgive and forget

but some people don't like to forgive they don't

forgive easily and I suppose it's it depends on what it is that the person

has done so I think Steve now this is just a guess I think Steve you you

forgive very easily oh well with me it's quite strange I will put up with a lot

of bad behavior from people mm-hm up to a point so I will forgive minor

transgressions shall we say yes so something that's occurred a person

that's done something to you in it's not serious it's not that serious but if

they keep doing it with me there's a line and once that line is crossed

there's no turning back once you cross that line you're out forever

that's it out forever and Steve you know my feelings

what's that well you know well would you say I forgive people easily no no you

don't you don't forgive people easily you are right we're quite opposite in

that in that way mm-hmm there's a if anyone sort of done sales or in sort of

it not necessarily sales but sort of works for a company sort of business

that there is a something called insights where you it's a sort of it's a

way of looking into people's characters and you you assign colors to people like

red green yellow or blue is that their character yes it yes so you do a

questionnaire quite a lengthy questionnaire and then it goes through

some analysis and then you come out and you get these great big charts and it's

sort of like a personality questionnaire test but it's called insights it's quite

a quite a popular one because it just assigns you a color hmm so you could be

green red yellow or blue and and within those four colors

there are characteristics that are attributed to those colors so if you're

if you're a red person I've got a red top on but it doesn't mean I'm in sights

red but a red person makes very quick decisions tend to be leaders don't take

any nonsense that sort of character of a person and we all know people like that

if you're a yellow person it means you you like talking about your holidays and

about yourself and you go on and on about yourself and you're all sort of

fluffy and and everything's alright and they'll sort of talk to you and and

endlessly about everything mostly about themselves yes no not necessarily if

you're blue if you're a blue character that means you're quite introspect if

you like to look at all the details of everything and you're into facts and

figures and you don't make decisions unless you've got all the facts and

figures around you if you're a green person then that means you're all you're

very nice you're very open friendly towards everybody a lovely friendly

character but you're very easily hurt you know already people already I feel

that you might be blue I don't know actually I'm blue green I'm having

nobody's ever just one color ah usually people are a mixture of

colors they've got a dominant color and then they've got other parts so this

sounds like psychoanalysis it is a kind of well it's it's more about finding out

what your character is and and sort of attributing it to these four colors and

within that you can sort of because if for example you're in a in a sales job

you don't want to be too green all the time and you don't get you you want to

you want to sort of flex into your read a bit more and and it's allowing you to

think about what your natural character is but then allowing you to sort of flex

and move into other areas that have that may assist you in your career

so does this justice help with say self-improvement

so what is the point of this so for from my point of view

I I think I might be red so so I see myself maybe as a red person maybe a

person who I'm not very patient I think I mean I mean I don't mind

analyzing myself I'm very aware of some of my strong points I'm also equally

aware of my of my weaknesses and one of them is impatience so I can be quite

impatient I do like to get things done quickly if I'm doing something for

example preparing this livestream I really do get very focused on it and I

don't like messing around for too long I like to get things done very quickly and

when it comes to forgiving people I'm not a very forgiving person I will I

will give them a little bit but really I can cut people off very easily from my

life I I have absolutely no problem with that so if I I will be pushed so far but

but really if if I'm pushed too far that that's it I I don't I don't forgive

easily and I can very easily cut people off yeah well yes I've seen you do it

the other thing that this this attributing this color is it enables you

to when you're with people you can assess what is their dominant color

whether they're red green blue yellow and then from that you can sort of sort

of mold yourself to sort of be more attractive in terms of relating to that

person in a better way so if you go to see somebody and they say you get in

sales and you're going to see a customer and that customer you can tell doesn't

want any nonsense doesn't want to talk about the holidays then you just wrap it

you just go in tell them the facts and ask for and expect a quick decision and

leave if it's something you go in and they start talking about their holidays

then you've got to sort of yeah sort of go along with that so it enables you

just sort of not manipulate but sort of sort of sort of morph into into their

behavior of it or enables you to be a bit more like a

chameleon hmm and sort of adjust your behavior to suit the the situation or

the person that you with the the sunshade is moving and blowing in the

wind mr. Duncan but luckily the sun's gone in so I'm all right

so yes what you were saying there was quite interesting we've got quite a few

people on the live chat as well sue Kat says she is blue blue detail

she likes the detail I bet you don't but I bet you're like me if I the worst

thing for me is having to make a decision on buying something say a new

fridge just something like a fridge most Pete a lot of people would just a person

who's yellow would just it would go out there just buy a fridge no it'll take me

two weeks to decide I look at all the facts and figures and decide them as

that fridge what what's the the Eco rating that fridge and what's the

capacity of it and what's that like compared to others if that got a good

reliability record I'm sorry this this this sounds like you Steve and that is

the complete opposite of you you will just buy things on an impulse well I do

see again again I that's why I don't particularly agree with these color

codes I think because sometimes when you wake up in the morning you don't feel

the same as you did the day before about something now that's true that's right

so it's all a flex I must admit I'm not exactly I'm not entirely convinced that

any of this serves any purpose so I think really we all have good days and

we all have bad days we have up days and we have down days so sometimes our mood

can influence the decisions we make so if you are in a bad mood you might make

the wrong decision about something and if you are in a good mood you might be

more generous with the way you treat other people so certainly I wouldn't say

I'm impulsive sometimes I'm the opposite sometimes I'm terrible at making a

decision where where is you Steve you are always always at the extreme yes

you can get paralysis by analysis ah it's a common phrase if you basically if

you think too much you can't make a decision paralysis by analysis paralysis

by analysis so that you're going into too much detail about something over

thinking over thinking your brain becomes full of all these facts and

figures and you can't make any clear decision about something and that very

often happens to me and that maybe happens to sue cat I don't know yes well

I have some good news for you Steve what's that we're going to take a little

break Oh would you like lineside would you

like to take a little break I would I think so so we are now going to take a

look at one of my full English lessons mr. Steve and whilst we watch that Steve

is going to come into the studio and have a well-deserved drink thank you

cows in a field all being good cows in a field chewing the cud to chew the curd

as an idiom means to talk about general things in a friendly way or to consider

something carefully you are chewing the cud just like this cow

these cows seem very friendly don't you think

can you see what I have on my back it is a very useful thing for carrying stuff

around and walks him it is a backpack a backpack helps to keep your hands-free

while carrying things you put stuff in your backpack so you don't have to carry

anything in your hands a backpack can be small and lightweight or it can be very

large and hold many things hikers often use backpacks so as to allow them to

carry many items at once safety equipment waterproof clothing

survival gear or even a fold away tent can be carried on your back using a

backpack the most common type of backpack looks like this something not

too large and not too small very convenient for when you have lots of

things to carry you can carry a small backpack over both shoulders or just

over one some backpacks even have wheels on them so they can be pulled around

like a trolley a backpack can also be called a rucksack

you are not going to believe what I'm about to say but say it I will most

native speakers of English make mistakes while using the language that is to say

in their day-to-day use of English there are many reasons for this first there is

the consideration of the accent being used some English accents clip or alter

the way in which English is used this applies to both British and American

English speakers the speed at which some people speak English changes the sounds

of certain words if you add accent and speed together then you will get a very

different sounding version of English from a grammatical point of view

mistakes are often made by native speakers double negatives such as I

didn't do nothing are common in everyday speech the use of certain words can also

lead to mistakes being made confusion between words such as historic and

historical affect and effect allude and allude assume and presume these are just

some examples of common mistakes made by native English speakers

then there is the spelling of certain words native English speakers will often

spell certain words incorrectly good examples of this include amount

fascinate necessary definitely achieve acknowledge success

imitate familiar scissors and vacuum there are of course many others my point

here is that even though a person speaks and uses English as their first language

they will still be prone to making the occasional mistake it would be fair to

say that on a daily basis very few native English speakers get it

right all the time and that includes me

it is possible to have time on your hands to have time on your hands means

that you have plenty of spare time you are doing nothing at the moment you have

lots of time on your hands we can ask a person do you have time to

see me could you spare some time for me next week when are you free to be free

is to have spare time the word spare can also be a verb to spare some time is to

make sure you will be free you offer your time to someone at a certain time

you will be free and available time ticks by it never stops time marches on

the time and the place is when and where to run out of time is where all things

come to an end you are out of time

did it do it is Sunday and that was one of my full English lessons

it is a glorious afternoon look at the weather there it is a live view looking

into the distance you can see some of the clouds floating over one of the

local landmarks called the Rican and it is a glorious day he's now back inside

he's come back in he's had a lovely refreshing drink of water and it's now

safe and sound back in the studio yes it's mr. Steve hello hello again yes

would you like another round of applause come on there you go well we were while

I was watching that video while that video was playing I saw a couple of

other people I've been able to take off my list Oh

in you go gallo from Spain in a go you're ticked off and s Dan is low

Stanislav from Tenerife oh he's had six beers six beers yes you are very lucky

you now I always save it if you have a little bit of alcohol before we start

our live stream normally it's a little bit more entertaining if you have a

little bit to drink first probably oh you don't mean us no not us no people

are watching so what if you don't can what have you got in your hand

do you want the mr. Duncan just have you been a good boy make them later after

the after the live show yes cup of tea cakes yes we've got those for later you

know I love tea cake he says I'm very hungry I have had

nothing to eat again again every time we spend so much time preparing for these

live lessons he gets up and for four hours five hours solid probably more

than that preparing for the lesson he doesn't have anything to eat so I've got

to make him tea cakes afterwards no one would ever believe how much work how

much effort and how much stress stress now I think

you've told people before goes in to doing these live streams it takes me

four hours at least four at four hours to prepare everything to get the

technology working so yes it's not just about standing in

front of a camera it's it's a lot more than just standing here

how can people appreciate that mr. Duncan talking they do anyway a couple

of tea cakes for you mr. Duncan likes huge amounts of butter on his tea cakes

yes you but you can't have a tea cake with that

lots of butter mr. Duncan's tea cakes are like butter sponges the butter just

melts and runs out the side it runs down my hand he literally does if mr. Duncan

makes you a tea cake you take the first bite and the butter drips onto your

t-shirt that you're wearing and you can't get it out of the wash for about

three washes yes a steady stupid I've chat are more excited her study Steve if

you're talking about getting food down your clothes he is the worst

he's the worst for doing that but never Steve eats anything you can always tell

what he's had to eat because it's always down his shirt so there let's have a

look at the live chat yes cool hello sue Jean says OMG mr. Steve what have I done

Oh to get an oh my god don't move what I said that was it the tea cakes stanislav

stanislav is back so you're gonna have to go on my list i'm n has left a

message on the live chat it is nice being a forgiving person that would mean

that you were not a black-hearted person but some people would consider being a

forgiving person as a weakness yes I think sometimes you could be too

forgiving yes now I think that's where Steve what if one of your you don't have

many faults but Steve does have a couple of faults and one of them is I think you

are too forgiving sometimes with people you are you are very very

patient but I think sometimes you are too patient with people I still just go

back a bit someone has been giving some advice then yes I think so I think you

can it actually harms you I think sometimes if you if you allow people to

walk all over you mm-hmm and as Stanislaw says you can just call me o s

Tanis o s Tanis okay got you I thought you meant call you on the

phone there's some advice I'm not on how to on how to forgive not to forgive me

maybe in the future we can have a phone number that you can call and and mr.

Steve you could give mr. Steve advice and maybe mr. Steve can give you advice

Maria is from Sicily oh hello Maria Sicily Oh fantastic

well Maria has been watching us for a long time she has she has all med is

here as well Ahmed Ahmed Mahad is all Mahmood hello to you as well yes

everyone seems I can't I can't do it right when we're live mr. Duncan it's

too much everyone seems very concerned about my stomach the size of my stomach

Ayman says mr. Duncan is going to be fatter with those tea cakes ms/ms fairy

4 oh yes you you were here last Sunday ah so you're on my printed list so I'm

ticking you off now so welcome Ms fairy nice to see you again

yes I I am looking forward to my tea cake later

thank you Sheeran for that yes we are going to take a look at some quirky

words you know checking your usher in you ticked off okay to be honest I'm

getting a bit ticked off as well with this this name recording well it's

staying it seemed oh do you realize we spent nearly 25 minutes just talking

about the list of names yes well let's see if people like it or

not okay I think yes let's think about that while while we're away about what's

the best way to record who is present on the live chats yes I

think so the thing I'm interested in and this

this is where I'm interested in is finding out where people actually are

what Jess around the world as I said earlier you kind of forget that you're

doing this I know that sounds strange but when you're doing this every week

you kind of forget what you are actually doing which is you are going into the

camera and then you are going all around the world so anyone anywhere can watch

you unless of course you're in China in which case you can't it's very hard to

watch in China because YouTube is blocked and of course that means that I

am also blocked as well that's not very nice Edith as Sat has a birthday on the

19th of August in Columbia Edith has set yes a house at Edith you've got a

birthday haven't you which is not far off

twelve Oh it'll be it'll be Saturday something like that yes I hope you get

an invite to Columbia thank you say Ted is from Hawaii who's that Hawaii say Ted

say Ted I didn't even see say Ted yes I don't know that I mentioned that person

earlier but yes people of Russia we've got people from everywhere today that's

what we really want to know where are you from I would rather like to go to

Hawaii because it looks like a very nice place I'm not I'm not interested in

going to the United States to be honest but I would like to go to Hawaii which

of course is part of the USA I paid from Coventry oh hello are you from Coventry

let's have a look abide yes oh by Dulla or by della Malad is watching in

Coventry in the Midlands not far from where we are you will have to go on the

list as well yes Coventry in years ago people used to use

Coventry as a way of punishing or saying that they were going to punish someone

Haiti they would say that they are they are they are going to be sent

to Coventry or they will send them to Coventry so it's an expression so maybe

you can look it up later but there is an expression send someone to Coventry it

means you you shunned them you exclude them you you disassociate yourself talk

to them yes you ignore you you you stop talking to them you you cut them out of

your life your teacher your teacher would say to you in school if you don't

stop talking I'm gonna send you to Coventry so not literally sending you to

Coventry it just means that you would be excluded from the rest of the class and

no one would talk to you like a punishment yes so that is something

people used to say I think it refers to the Second World War I think it has some

some reference to the to the Second World War of sending people there I

don't know I might be wrong it is an expression that we sometimes use now but

I think it's a little old-fashioned you don't often hear it so you don't often

hear people say that but it is still a very interesting I'm taking notes an

interesting expression Argentina we know sue comes from Argentina I do remember

that but thank you anyway oh we have ban Bangkok have we Bangkok

where's that new Hong Kong singer new Hong singer is watching in Bangkok

Thailand thank you very much so you're there with we've already got somebody

from Thailand as well yes and this is the this is why I'm interested Steve is

because I want to find out where we have people watching in large numbers now

Yemeni first of all I know that we have lots of people watching mean I know we

have lots of people watching in Vietnam and also I know that we have a lot of

people watching in India not a day not today but but normally quite often we

have a lot of people viewing in India but they don't say anything

they just watch without actually writing on the live chat so that's the thing I'm

interested in I want to find out where people are watching

he even those who are rather shy and don't want to type on the live chat so

that's the thing that I'm actually interested in that gel facile says from

Algeria hello and given as a couple of lovely hands yes I think I think I think

they are applause - yes is in Indonesia I think yes I'm trying to find out if

there's been an earthquake because it has mica mentioned it and you mentioned

it ts was saying very early on in the in

the live chat that has been an earthquake and she was fearful of an

island nearby where lots of tourists go to in Bali oh okay

the who could have been affected now we haven't seen this on the news could not

have been busy this morning yes preparing for this lesson so yes so

that's what TAS was saying earlier that's one of the problems with doing

this in the morning is is quite often you will miss the news yes so this is

something that's obviously happened in in the in the maybe the hour or the or

the two hours before we came on I'm at the movies from Dubai thank you for that

hello - Dubai Stanislav says you are both very good fellows you complement

each other very well thank you very much for that we have known each other for a

long time we've been friends and comrades as they say in China for many

years TS and Chris seem to know each other okay which is very interesting

indeed I think Chris is saying that they went to Bandung which is in Indonesia

how fascinating all these connections Mavi wants to talk about forgiveness I

cannot forgive easily it's really hard for me it takes takes many months or

even years first one Snooky is in Berlin and we know some

friends that are going to visit Berlin yes in a few weeks time Louie Mendez in

France oh no they're just in France Oh sent to the Lamaze is that

how to pronounce that in France if the same expression if you send somebody to

Lamaze it means that you're not talking to them

oh and the offices were sent there in the first world

ah so this this might have a very similar meaning to being sent to

Coventry sharina's from Kurdistan okay there you go is that on your list yes oh

yes in my on my list and I can I can update this while we're on holiday I

shall sit there on the beach we're looking through the live chat and

updating my lists that's a good opportunity for us to say that we won't

be here on Wednesday so there is no late in life on Wednesday just to let you

know but we will be back next Sunday and it's my birthday next week

we probably will be back on Wednesday it'll be too late for us to do a live

stream won't it mr. Duncan yes it'll be far too late so we will see you all in a

week we're not going yet no we're not going just yet

we're not going to the beach just yet but we are we are going away and we're

hoping to spend a little bit a bit of time by the sea because we haven't been

to the seaside for a long time we haven't

so we'll be packing our bags tonight yes packing our bags and getting ready to go

away and and we're both looking forward to having a little break

mavey is in Turkey I think I know that yes

oh I didn't I didn't so that's turkeys going to I'll put you down now maybe

thank you - yes so Sanders from Russia okay

Alexander we talked about I think we mentioned Alexander who might return oh

yes and also TS says the earthquake occurred

about three hours ago so yes - before we came on but but we were so busy we don't

have a chance to look at the news unfortunately GK is from Saudi Saudi

Arabia okay fantastic ooh I've broken the live chat I've

broken it that's it it's broken I always get too carried away when I'm clicking

you see and sometimes I click too much and then everything goes wrong Oh Jeff

always count on you saying that my clothes are washed and set out ready for

the holiday oh not again yes you see you try to stifle the uses of the word set

but Jeff always remembers let's have a look I can't see it where is it it was

just there oh really oh yeah I bet mr. Steve has his clothes washed and set out

set out arranged arranged on the bed ready to pack in my suitcase yes well I

haven't just yet but they will be later does mr. Steve work in your computer mr.

Duncan to make the names of the viewers no I never let Steve near my computer

and there is a good reason for that he will probably break it so there is there

is one rule that I have in this studio mr. Steve can never touch my equipment

so his hands must stay up and I must be able to see his hands at all time I

can't see his hands put your hands up so there they are

so I know that mr. Steve isn't touching my equipment I can't touch any buttons

here I can't do anything because mr. Duncan will scold and scolding so no no

mr. Steve ain't me mr. Steve never touches my equipment no and I'm not

going to go anywhere near a computer either no anyway let's not lower the

tone where where are you going on holiday what we're going Sergio to Wales

which is not very exciting not for easily and not very far away and I've

got some lovely quotes which one to read with there we go

before we go Steve has some nice quotes absolutely look we're not going just yes

we're not going yet we are not going yet not yet actually my sister said that she

wants to come and stay here while we're away so we could cheat we could always

tell her to do a live stream she wouldn't know what to do I've broken

the live chat again Steve because all my plants need watering so

we've got people coming to look after the house and the plants everything

Robert away so who so I'm gonna say to my sister you do the live chat we'll

just set it all up ready and she can do it while we're away so you might sees

you might see something very strange pop up on your YouTube account during the

week maybe I'm not saying it will happen but we won't be here on Wednesday with

the late in life but we what we are back next week because it's my birthday next

Sunday so we were asked earlier what what the actual subject will be in the

next hive stream oh there will only be one subject next week right for it and

that's my birthday let's see how many viewers we get mr. Denzo i'm looking

forward to seeing lots of people and it is my birthday on Sunday and we will be

having a live stream surrounding my birthday everything will be about me me

it's always about you mr. Duncan never about me well we'll celebrate your

birthday okay we can talk about birthdays in general and when people

have gall you already know that very soon after yours I wouldn't if anyone

else watching will have a birthday next Sunday uh-huh

because you can see them a very special song so is anyone else having a birthday

next Sunday on the same day as being or maybe the day after or maybe during

August well we had someone earlier hasit Edith

from Columbia has a birthday on the 19 okay then so can anybody get closer to

the twelve so a week after my birthday yeah what yes it's a week after my book

yes exactly yes exactly it's the Sunday after your birthday you really have to

use your fingers then I would do that to work out a week to offer seven is 19 I

know that Wow so yes so yeah or even this or even

on the 11th the day before the day before the day after we'll count those

mm-hmm anybody watching got a birthday on the

11th or the 13th and then we can celebrate the birthday you had on the

Saturday before the birthday coming up on all the week ahead Sergio

Oh Sergio just asked the question he asked did you learn Welsh well

fortunately most people or many people in Wales speak English and what

strangers we can see Wales from our house so if we look at we look out the

window we can actually see Wales so we're not going very far away but maybe

and I'm hoping we will also go to the coast and maybe play on the beach so we

might do some video filming during our holiday as well no not much but we might

go to the beach so we might do a special video for next Sunday where we are

playing on the beach that sounds like fun because I mean sandcastle we've

never done it before we've never done a lesson on the beach

we haven't never do one never never ever that's wicked foggy so you never know we

might be you know mr. Duncan says we're not going to be here on Wednesday but no

mr. Duncan if we're still away then I bet no let's not promise anything

no somebody said earlier have we got any swimming trunks no well I always go

naked you see so what I do I put a towel around my waist and then I go into the

sea and then I let go of the towel and it floats away and then under the water

all horrors can be seen but when you get to all the creatures from the sea coming

and nibbling at your crown jewels mr. doback that's why I do it it's it's all

the attention I get these days I don't get attention from anyone else so I

might as well have the fish come round in in nip nip at my crown jewels sue

cata sent you about eight cakes by the way Wow which is not good for your

waistline that's not very many the low-calorie cakes I want more cakes

more MORE a man went to Aberystwyth Aberystwyth

Aberystwyth several years ago our burliest with Tom Jones was well she was

he's not very well at the moment says dear Jeff yes he's still Welsh yes but

he's not very well no sadly Tom Jones the singer is not very well he's been

ill with I think it's a chest infection so pneumonia as you call it the old

man's friend nico says pneumoniae but that's what doctors say pneumonia is

described by many doctors or used to be they wouldn't say that now ok another

few moments because we're running out of time yes well if we don't do it today we

can do it next Sunday so that's the beauty of this if we don't have time we

can always do it again husana is sitting on a beach now watching us are you on a

beach nurse we need photographic evidence so send the photograph to my

email address of you on the beach I want proof of this week we can't just have

people saying these things without proof so there it is there's my email address

on the screen so send me a picture of you on the beach this is a selfie if

we've got time we'll show it if you don't want to send a selfie just send a

picture of the beach that you're on I want to see it to get me in the mood for

the holiday because hopefully we are going to spend a little bit of time on

the beach as well have a little play on the beach Amory's here for a swim in the

sea sweep every radio hello swim swim swim swim

hmm you're not a very good swimmer are you mr. Duncan that is true let's just

say you can't swim I am very good at drowning they it's school they gave me a

special badge for drowning normally they give you batteries and awards if your

swimming is good but but mine was so bad they actually created a new a new award

which they called the going under award their Guinea Alvarez is from Costa Rica

which he seems to like he says it's a paradise with an eternal summer that

sounds good to me sounds very good although it sounds a

bit like the UK as well yes we seem to be having in an eternal summer at the

moment we do a howl of Europe is Inigo oh hello in ego in ego wants to talk

about the horoscopes so you are Leo outgoing confident and energetic oh that

sounds like me doesn't know that's when you go saying so mr. Duncan you're Leo

yes that's what I just said oh right did he I get the feeling you didn't hear

what I just said then I thought you were talking about to any go no I was talking

about Leo's Tia says that you corrected me on

something so now I've got to do the same hmm we are going to look at some strange

words now now we did look earlier at some in my full english lesson but we

are going to look at some more and I think the English language is a very

fascinating thing because there are some words in the English language that look

strange but they are real so here are some words and I'm going to see if Steve

knows what they mean put me on the spot put me on the spot put mr. Steve on the

spot that means you ask them a question without warning them you test their bra

they do test their knowledge you take a glass of vodka first a glass of vodka I

haven't seen vodka man I have have you seen yes Lina Lina or Leonard

interestingly enough because of the way if I put these in alphabetical order

mm-hmm vodka man comes second to last on my

list because that's how it so it looks like an ex okay although there's

somebody there that looks like Arabic who comes last I don't know who that is

but we haven't seen him yet okay but yes yes I think vodka man that the real name

is is Lina Lina but you want but your name is of course in Cyrillic so we

can't read it very well but i-i've translated

it and it looks like it might be leaner or Lenna so I hope that's okay

words that are strange there are some strange strange strange strange hmm

hit me mr. Duncan with a strange word oh okay no not hit me oh I really wanted to

hit you that because me the other night he hit me did you see Steve he hit me he

punched me in the crown jewels I need you in the groin yes he gave me in a

knee he injured me here we go then so look Steve there is a word boy I know

that one mr. doom oh that's a good word so as what what is an orc and oh it's a

person who doesn't behave very well that a bit I would say they were probably a

young person a young person who and somebody that just sort of is a bit of a

misfit sort of badly behaved yes that's that's closer to the actual definition a

badly behaved person a person who believed behaves badly or they are

disruptive they they they like causing trouble they they create problems I

don't think it's necessarily a young person although it's often associated

with young people weak but it's a real word in the English language and I'm

sure lots of people will now be looking it up you orc if you say to somebody

it's usually applied to young people isn't it yes disruptive people who may

be in the town centre there they're creating and playing football in places

they shouldn't be yes okay they men says can I just who we've asked been asked

this question last time but we didn't answer it okay pictures behind us

those two there somebody drew those for us didn't somebody did and and please

don't ask me who because I can't actually remember at the moment I I have

got the names written down somewhere but my archives

are so holding the person was from Russia yeah I think it was the person

was from Russia I can't remember their name that that's that's oh no I don't

know so so now mr. Steve has put me on the spot ah I don't put you on the spot

yes but I don't know but yes that was actually one of our lovely viewers who

did these lovely characters so at the top you can see there's me caricatures

particular part of the world so no we haven't

those pictures were drawn by one of our viewers one of our viewers I will try fi

the name and I will find the other picture is well that was drawn of me

blue thunder wants a hug you want a hug how I don't know how I can send a hug

through the internet I don't think I don't think technology has become that

advanced at the moment ts and amry are reacquainting themselves with each other

that's knowledge is very nice but we're happy to be a sight that that brings

people back together again they are reunited United you reunite you

bring people together again who became a part somebody from India we mentioned

India earlier we did Archer be Dyan sorry that's incorrect Lee pronounce

from India so yes fantastic have I got marcher on my list if not I will do oh

yes I have Oh Archer 20 here's another word we've got

I want to do about another three or four words before we go we will be going in

around about 10 minutes another word he's an interesting one it doesn't look

like a real word but it is a real English word ploy ploy ploy and he'd

said play but it's ploy ploy ploy mm-hmm ploy so it's a sort of is it like a plot

yes a plan a plan yes normally done in secret or more normally a plan that is

taking place it involves something happening maybe a

ploy to hold somebody fool someone or maybe overthrow the leader of a country

it's a ploy ploy a plan a thing that is being planned so merciful II yes maybe

in secret and secret I suppose you can also use plot as well

plot so you can ploy you can plot you can plan something to do something that

may come as a surprise ploy it's a great word that here's another one I think

this one this one is just for mr. Steve this one this is for mr. Steve I think

Steve will know the meaning of this strange word finicky finicky finicky

somebody who pays a lot of attention unnecessary attention to details about

something so if you were for example a common expression way to use that would

be to say that somebody was finicky about their food yes

now I'm not finicky about my food no somebody that is finicky about their

food is like certain it's very fussy and that what they eat but they might sort

of push things around the plate or they might not want peas or they might they

might not they're only want certain things they might want it at a certain

temperature feeling finicky another word I suppose you can use is picky picky

picky so finicky but also you can you can over fuss so to fuss too much or to

to be too particular about things so I think sometimes you are quite finicky I

can be yes you so don't be so finicky if you were cleaning something for example

you might spend too long cleaning something and going into every little

nook and cranny yeah you could say that you're being too finicky hmm it's

spending too much time I'm doing something otherwise could be

done a lot far that might explain your your your blue-green nature are you back

onto that now I thought you didn't believe in mr. dink I don't believe in

it but I remember you mentioned that earlier but you are you are kind of blue

green everybody everybody has a character and it can be sort of slotted

into four basic groups some people think for those it's two instead of instead of

mr. Steve we should call him mr. finicky mr. finicky but I'm not finicky about my

food no that is one thing let's see Betty you can't say that about either of

us we love eating well you are a bit finicky you don't eat vegetables at all

do you mister no fruit sorry yes there only to mr. Duncan eat no

fruit well light some fruit but I don't like but I don't like certain fruit

because sometimes it reacts with my throat that's true yeah so I have to be

careful because of my health he's another one he's one more and then we

will start to wrap up the grind down because you have something nice to read

I do to get us in the holiday mood and yes oh this is an interesting one man

risk this doesn't look like a word this looks like part of a word but it is a

word and the word is is it eek eek yes oh right he has in to eke out something

yes eek eek so if you seek something you

make something lest longer yes you you extend the time that that thing will

last for so you eat you eat get out yes and that's the expression we often use

you eat something out so maybe you only have a little bit of food to last you

for the whole week so you only eat a little bit each time because you want to

eat if you were running out of milk and the shop wasn't open like we are like we

are that's why I thought of that example we're running out of milk running out of

milk the shop you know isn't so we've got to make it last until

tomorrow so we will eat get out so we won't use it all up at once so we just

use a little bit each time maybe not so much in the tea maybe not not not have a

glass of milk we'll make it last what eke it out you can eke out time time to

make it last longer so I could say let's eat out this lesson for another 10 10

minutes of course the most obvious example is money may we count them yes

yes so you might you might only have a small amount of money but you have to

live for maybe a week or maybe a month maybe this is a time to tell you mr.

Duncan well only about a hundred pounds for the holiday okay got to eat that

money out over the whole period of time that we're away I'm not sure what you

can get and what can you get for a hundred pounds nowadays it might mean

that we might have to sleep on the beach we might be sleeping in the carpark

eke out the money I think we'll be sleeping in the car park of the hotel

we've got a gay before 4:00 so what happens if we don't yes we turn into

pumpkins the tube goes wrong so there it is eek it's a great word one more one

more when this is more this is one I think that mr. Steve will will

understand because you you get lots of these don't you you get lots of these

spots Oh glitch glitch glitch a glitch it's when something goes wrong

yes it's a glitch there is a problem with something something I mean their

fault yes just just a minor fault nothing too

serious a glitch so yes for example when the livestream goes wrong on there it

starts doing weird things yes it's a glitch it's not a serious fault it's

something you can create correct fairly easily but it's a glitch well if the

internet was to go down temporarily hmm but it would come then it comes back on

again it's a glitch in your temporary relatively minor fault that's it sir

something that causes a problem but not a big problem

it's just a glitch glitch so I love that word so I hope you enjoyed those we were

going on holiday yes and we had to get somewhere and there was a traffic jam

you might describe that as a bit of a glitch because it takes you longer to

get there than you wanted to but we will get there eventually so we had glitch we

had eek we had how can we eat out today's lesson

for another 10 minutes we have can we eat get out

we had finicky and also Floy Floy and Ike so there we go we might have a look

at some more words like that because there are lots of very interesting and

some might say strange words in the English language we are going in a

minute but one thing I just want to check down here hold on Steve Catherine

says there glitch equals a bug yes you could you could describe it as a bug in

the system maybe but it's something that just sort of goes wrong or an error yes

an error temporary I'm just checking to see if there are any emails we haven't

had any beach emails or pictures so no nothing so far

all right well that's almost it from us for today we are going to have a little

break well-deserved break path away so mr. Steve is going to leave us with

something rather nice some lovely quotes for holiday inspiration these are quotes

from famous poets famous authors that they have said about travelling really

so here's one from Mark Twain Oh quite a famous writer 20 years from now you will

be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did too

so throw off the bowlines sail away from the safe harbour catch

the trade winds in your sails explore dream discover hmm bark train so that

quite often said isn't it that you regret the things that you

don't do more than the things you do when you get older

Mark Twain wasn't his real name what was it no Sid Smith the use of traveling is

to regulate imagination by reality and instead of thinking how things may be to

see them as they are so we often watch television we think of countries in like

a particular way because we see one view of it then you go then it's completely

different so instead of imagining what something's like go and see it for real

and I know who that quote is by that Samuel Johnson you are correct mr. dumb

yes that's Samuel Johnson that's one of his famous quotes to travel is to

discover that everyone is wrong about other countries Huxley wrote that so you

discover what do you want about a country when you go there again cried

often what you see you'll read about something is not exactly what it's like

Aldous Huxley travel has a way of stretching the mind the stretch comes

not from travels immediate rewards the inevitable myriad of new sights sounds

and smells but by experiencing firsthand how others do differently what we

believe to be the right and only way so a very similar meaning that's right so

so what what you perceive here is not necessarily the reality well it's it's

saying that everybody does things differently hmm there isn't necessarily

a right or wrong way just because you in your community or in your country do

things in a certain way mm-hmm doesn't mean there aren't other ways of

doing those things and they're perfectly valid and perfectly all right yeah and

end up with the same result yes if you reject the food ignore the

customs fear the religion and avoid the people you might as well stay at home

yes so sometimes you have to dive in to experience everything so if you if you

go to a place and then you avoid seeing the real country or experiencing the

local culture or maybe the way things are done then you might as well stay at

home and we a lot of Brits have a reputation of going on holiday

particularly to Spain and they just want everything to be the same as it is in

England so they want the same food the same everything like they just want the

hot sunshine they don't want to go and experience what Spain is really like or

what any other countries like they just want to get on the plane go there eat

drink have some stuff and come back and I don't can't be bothered to find out

about the local and sometimes they won't even venture out of the hotel

they will stay all the time in the hotel where we've got a reputation the Brits

are being a bit a bit a bit like that yes once a year goes somewhere you have

never been before says the Dalai Lama uh-huh

well he knows he knows about traveling because he travels all over the place

except Tibet life is either a daring adventure or nothing says Helen Keller

make voyages attempt them there's nothing else

Tennessee Williams now here's an interesting one who do you think this is

by don't look don't look at the shirt one of the Gladys moments of human life

methinks is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands shaking off

with one mighty effort the fetters of habit the leaden weight of routine the

cloak of many cares and the slavery of home man feels once more happy hmm well

I enjoy it traveling and freeing yourself from all the all the the

routines and the sameness of everyday life well the style of English sounds

like Shakespeare well it was Richard Burton Richard Burton the deceased

famous act Shakespearean actor Richard Burton wrote

that but it miffed me thinketh you see yes ah it's kind of Shakespearean one's

destination is never a place but a new way of seeing things one's destination

is never a place no but a new way of seeing things because when you're on

holiday your mind is freed up from everyday worries and concerns paying

bills going to work family affairs and suddenly you you always find when you're

when you're on holiday your mind can just relax and then and the real you

quite often comes out and and of course there is the the well-known expression

about broadening the mind travel is fatal to prejudice bigotry and narrow

mindedness it says Mark Twain as - we've had Venice Samuel Clemens by the way is

his real name for those wondering he's so clever he's the last one certainly

travel is more than the seeing of sights it is a change that goes on deep and

permanent in the ideas of living so travel broadens the mind really mmm and

allows you to see things in a different perspective apart instead of your own

narrow view of life and we all know people who have got very prejudiced and

and and and their mind is like it's like it's set in concrete

yes all you might you might describe them their mind or their thinking as

being very narrow because they've only seen they haven't been do you know ice

but some there's a village near here and somebody told me and it's probably in

other parts of the country that in this village there are people who have never

left so the village has only got about 300 people in it but a small town yeah

and some people even quite young people in their forties have never left that

village they haven't even they haven't even come to much Wenlock which is only

four miles away they've never left so their mind must be

are you are you going to name the place no I'm not going to name the place and I

name the place no don't don't know there's probably examples everywhere as

of people who just literally never leave the place where they're born and live in

yeah you might describe them as being sheltered we're just about is all right

for them anyway let's not go one that's it so nice of the holiday quotes

inspiration we thought we'd leave you with that that's it's two minutes to go

the bottom line is travel travel broadens your horizons it broadens the

mind and wherever you go there is always

something new to learn something new to see and that's one of the reasons why we

enjoy doing these live streams because we get a chance to talk to you on the

live chat we are about to go and we are having a little break as well thank you
