12:47
coming up today we have some subjects to  talk about of course it is monday monday  
64
767680
6880
12:55
i don't know why a lot of people don't like  monday for some reason i don't know why  
65
775360
5520
13:00
they don't like it but quite often people will  wake up in the morning and they will feel very  
66
780880
4960
13:06
down and slightly miserable because it's  monday what about you do you like mondays  
67
786800
7360
13:14
i don't mind mondays i think mondays  are super duper i think mondays are  
68
794160
7360
13:23
i think they are fancy pants i think  monday is definitely fancy pants  
69
803440
10400
13:35
it's a super duper day so i don't mind mondays  to be honest i think mondays are super duper  
70
815520
6880
13:42
to be honest with you what about you so i  thought today we would have a new feature  
71
822960
7200
13:50
and this is something i've never done before  something we are going to do today we are going  
72
830880
4800
13:55
to have our monday moan so if there is something  at the moment that is getting on your nerves  
73
835680
9120
14:04
something that is annoying you something that you  are thinking about that you want to get off your  
74
844800
5760
14:10
chest now is the time to do it so let's all have  a monday moan my monday moan is dogs what is the  
75
850560
13840
14:24
the problem with people who have dogs when they're  walking their dogs quite often they will let them  
76
864400
5280
14:29
off the lead they will let them go and then  the dog will run around like a crazy thing  
77
869680
5360
14:36
and if you are walking in the same direction  as the dog or maybe in the opposite direction  
78
876480
7840
14:44
quite often the dog will run towards you and  start jumping up and scratching your clothing  
79
884320
6480
14:51
with its dirty feet it's very annoying and i  i'm always amazed how little control some dog  
80
891360
10160
15:01
owners have over their animal they will let it  loose and they will let it run around and so any  
81
901520
7760
15:09
anyone else walking has to be very careful you see  because the dog might run towards them and start  
82
909280
6640
15:15
jumping up like a crazy thing so that is one of my  monday moans what about you do you have something  
83
915920
8480
15:24
that you dislike something that is getting on  your nerves get it off your chest right now  
84
924400
7280
15:32
here we go then oh rosa says mr duncan you  are looking very fabulous today thank you it  
85
932560
6960
15:39
is a fabulous day it's a great day to be alive  because we all have a chance to do this again  
86
939520
7600
15:47
we all have another day of life  isn't it nice any complaints anything  
87
947680
9600
15:58
that you do not like at the moment maybe something  that is annoying you let us get our mundy moans  
88
958240
7280
16:06
out the way so i just mentioned dog  owners quite often dog owners can be very  
89
966160
6800
16:13
selfish and sometimes quite ignorant as  well ignorant of other people walking around  
90
973680
6400
16:20
especially during this time of year  because the ground is very muddy  
91
980800
3760
16:25
and so the dogs are running around and then  they jump up and all of their dirty paws
92
985120
7040
16:34
will go on to your lovely clean  clothing so that's one of the reasons
93
994560
3680
16:40
oh i see alphane or alfian says oh i don't like it  when people allow their dogs to go to the toilet  
94
1000880
10880
16:52
in front of the house yes that is another thing  especially around here i don't know why but  
95
1012400
7600
17:00
around where i live a lot of people do have dogs  they do people are crazy about dogs around here  
96
1020000
9040
17:09
so quite often they will go for a walk with  their dog and then the dog of course will  
97
1029040
5280
17:14
want to go to the toilet because they do  you see that's what dogs do we all have to
98
1034320
5040
17:22
let's not do that again if you were watching  yesterday you will know that mr steve  
99
1042480
6240
17:28
was talking all about one of his toilet problems  hmm so yes quite often people will let their dog  
100
1048720
9040
17:38
run around free and quite  often they will do little poops  
101
1058480
4800
17:43
as well and there's nothing  worse than walking along the road  
102
1063280
3520
17:47
and not only seeing a lump of poop from a dog but  also sometimes if you're not careful you might  
103
1067520
8320
17:55
step into it so is there anything else something  else that gets on your nerves something else
104
1075840
8160
18:06
that is annoying
105
1086960
960
18:10
owning a dog has become very trendy these days yes  i think you're right it's become a huge industry  
106
1090960
6960
18:18
so not only for people who want to  have a companion but also families  
107
1098640
6800
18:25
as well will have a dog so having or  owning a dog has become very popular  
108
1105440
6080
18:32
at the moment especially here in the  uk and i think around the world as well
109
1112080
5520
18:40
yes owning a dog has become very trendy  hello sam sam rainbow says mathematics  
110
1120400
10240
18:52
that's a very interesting complaint your  monday moan mathematics is my complaint  
111
1132320
7520
19:00
says sam rainbow i will be honest with you when  i was at school i was hopeless at mathematics i  
112
1140480
8000
19:08
was so awful i used to find maths very boring  to be honest and i was always being told off  
113
1148480
8960
19:18
by my maths teacher mr west was his name i  still remember his name i'm scarred for life  
114
1158080
7600
19:27
but yes i did hate mathematics quite a  lot and also i i wasn't very good at it  
115
1167040
11280
19:38
so maybe the reason why i didn't like  mathematics was because i was not very good at it  
116
1178320
4880
19:44
so you always find that when you're at  school there are things that you enjoy  
117
1184080
4960
19:49
and there are things that you don't enjoy so  one of the things i did not enjoy at school  
118
1189680
6240
19:56
was maths mathematics i i can do simple  maths i can add and i can subtract  
119
1196560
10240
20:07
but anything else it's it's too hard you see  it's too difficult for my brain i think so  
120
1207680
7600
20:16
hello alessandra we are having our monday  moan this is something we will be doing  
121
1216880
5040
20:21
every monday something that is getting on  your nerves something that is annoying you
122
1221920
5760
20:31
human being hello human being nice to see you  here along with all the other human beings  
123
1231040
7120
20:38
watching today as well i hate it when you do  not want to talk to someone but he insists  
124
1238160
8480
20:46
on keeping talking yes you are right  now you might be surprised to find this  
125
1246640
7040
20:54
or find this out but sometimes i'm not very  sociable so if i'm going out for a walk and i want  
126
1254240
8480
21:02
to spend a little bit of time on my own reflecting  thinking about the world and my my place
127
1262720
8320
21:13
in this crazy thing we call life sometimes  people will come up to me and start talking  
128
1273440
8960
21:22
and i don't really want to talk to them you see  i want to just be alone i want to walk by myself  
129
1282400
7600
21:30
i want to be lost in my own contemplation  that's a good word i like that word  
130
1290000
7520
21:37
so quite often when i'm out i like to walk  alone i like to be silent i like to just  
131
1297520
6960
21:45
enjoy the nature around me i don't want to  be too distracted by anything to be honest  
132
1305200
7200
21:53
so so sometimes someone might might come up to me  as i'm walking and they will start chatting and  
133
1313040
6400
21:59
sometimes it is it is small talk they won't really  talk about anything the thing they're talking  
134
1319440
7920
22:07
about is just useless it's small talk it's just  nothing oh hello haven't seen you for a long time  
135
1327360
8240
22:15
oh isn't it a lovely day what do you think of  the weather do you think it will rain tomorrow
136
1335600
5360
22:23

137
1343280
8800
22:33
well i thought i would wear my beret now  quite often people who are artistic or  
138
1353360
5760
22:39

139
1359120
6320
22:46
on their head they will wear something called  a beret beret thank you for your compliments  
140
1366000
8400
22:54

25:43
we are having a monday moan by the way monday moan  if there is something you want to complain about  
159
1543440
7040
25:50
something you want to get off your chest it  can be anything really something that annoys  
160
1550480
6960
25:57
you something that is on your  mind come on share it with us all  
161
1557440
5200
26:03
get it off your chest sometimes talking about  something can be very therapeutic i think so  
162
1563520
7600
26:12
ricardo says oh we were talking about mathematics  a few moments ago and i said that i was terrible  
163
1572400
7600
26:20
at maths when i was at school and i was maths oh  i see mathematics can be so adorable like poetry  
164
1580000
10000
26:30
do you know maths can predict your future do  you believe it i'm not sure about that i suppose  
165
1590960
8640
26:41
i suppose it depends on whether the mathematics or  the equation is a positive one or a negative one  
166
1601360
7680
26:49
if i was honest so yes i would be i would be  a little cautious about finding out my future  
167
1609600
7440
26:57
just in case you see just in case  something bad is going to happen  
168
1617040
4400
27:01
but the only thing i know about  mathematics is i'm not very good at it
169
1621440
4720
27:08
mohammed muhammadi says i like biscuits too every  day yes me too you two and also me too as well  
170
1628560
9920
27:19
but sadly this is the last biscuit this is  the final biscuit that i have unfortunately
171
1639600
7520
27:31
so i'm trying to make this  biscuit last as long as possible  
172
1651120
3680
27:35
which means that i have to take very tiny bites  
173
1655600
4480
27:42
you might say that i am having a nibble nibble  oh i like that word the word nibble if you nibble
174
1662080
9760
27:57
it means you are taking very small  bites from something imagine an animal  
175
1677120
8480
28:05
maybe a small animal like a squirrel  imagine that particular animal eating
176
1685600
10240
28:22
you might say that the animal is nibbling nibbling  oh i can see what ricardo is talking about now  
177
1702560
11760
28:35
mathematics yes of course algorithms  algorithms numbers that are used  
178
1715600
6880
28:43
quite often to predict a person's  behavior even here on youtube  
179
1723280
6720
28:50
people use algorithms to try and guess what  people want to watch so you are right yes
180
1730000
7840
29:02
human being says i hope this year won't be like  the previous one well we've only had one month  
181
1742240
7840
29:10
so far so we are still into our first month and  
182
1750080
5280
29:17
now we have our second month which has just  started and that's the reason why i'm here today
183

5040
29:22
hello hello to you
184
1762720
4720
29:30
rose rose silva is here as well it would  appear that most of you have nothing  
185
1770480
7760
29:39
to complain about which i think is fantastic
186
1779360
2560
29:44
do you say biscuit or cookie this is a biscuit  biscuit so quite often we we will use the word  
187
1784320
10720
29:55
biscuit to describe this type of food something  that has been baked until it is crisp is a biscuit  
188
1795040
12800
30:09
sadly it is the last biscuit in the packet  so i have to make sure that i don't eat  
189
1809120
6160
30:16
it too quickly i think so mr duncan you  make me hungry do i really okay then  
190
1816400
8080
30:26
i suppose another thing i could moan about another  thing i want to complain about is running out of  
191
1826160
6800
30:32
food especially when you have your favorite  food do you find that sometimes do you ever  
192
1832960
7200
30:40
go to the cupboard in your kitchen and open the  door and you think there is something in there  
193
1840160
6800
30:48
but when you look it isn't there and there are  two possibilities as to why that is so maybe you  
194
1848480
10080
30:59
have eaten all of the food and you maybe forgot  about it or perhaps someone else especially if  
195
1859120
10400
31:09
you live with another person um i think you know  what i'm saying if you live with another person  
196
1869520
8320
31:19
maybe sometimes they eat your favorite food  maybe your biscuits or your chocolates they will  
197
1879680
7440
31:27
sneak into the kitchen when you are not  looking and they will eat your biscuits
198
1887120
5840

internet speed which is one of the reasons why my  live streams have good quality but you are right  
207
1967680
7840
32:55

is that the complaint is that the thing you  want to moan about oh no it isn't wait there  
229
2165760
5760
36:11
a second there's a little bit more to the  message mr duncan you skipped my comment  
230
2171520
6160
36:17
i was saying that living in a condominium  can cause you a lot of problems alessandra  
231
2177680
6960
36:24
you are right yes this is something i talked about  last year and i was talking all about neighbors  
232
2184640
10080
36:35
whether you get on or whether you are friendly  with your neighbors you see so sometimes people  
233
2195600
7520
36:43
can be very friendly with their neighbors  however sometimes if you live very close  
234
2203120
5760
36:49
to other people maybe the people who  are near to you are noisy maybe they  
235
2209520
6160
36:55
make a lot of noise at night maybe they do  things that annoys you maybe they have a dog  
236
2215680
7600
37:05
that keeps pooping outside your front door  you see mr duncan is mr steve coming on  
237
2225200
9120
37:14
today thank you rajuan no mr steve today because  well the simple reason is mr steve is at work  
238
2234320
10160
37:26
and when i say at work i mean that he's  upstairs in his office so steve at the moment is  
239
2246480
6800
37:33
working very hard upstairs in his office  by the way there's something i want to  
240
2253280
5520
37:38
do maybe tomorrow i will show you mr steve's  office he has so much equipment in his office  
241
2258800
8800
37:49
so i will i will show you tomorrow i'm going  to take a photograph of mr steve in his office  
242
2269040
5520
37:54
and then tomorrow i will show it you on the  live chat on tomorrow's second day of february  
243
2274560
9280
38:05
anna carmen hello anna i have three dogs says  anna can i just say i i don't have any problem  
244
2285840
9920
38:15
with dogs i like dogs dogs can be very friendly  they can be very lovely they are very faithful  
245
2295760
8160
38:24
so i have no problem with dogs and i certainly do  have a problem with people who treat dogs badly  
246
2304880
6960
38:32
so if if you have a dog and maybe you treat it  badly that would make me very unhappy but i think  
247
2312480
7360
38:39
sometimes the people who own dogs can be very  selfish or sometimes a little ignorant you see  
248
2319840
7680
38:47
because they let they let their dogs run around  and of course the other thing that dogs often do
249
2327520
9680
38:59
is this
250
2339520
560
39:07
that is very annoying so quite often dogs will  bark another reason why sometimes dog owners  
251
2347920
7760
39:16
can be a little selfish you see or ignorant  they leave their dog outside sometimes at  
252
2356320
5920
39:22
night maybe the dog wants to come into the  house so it will start barking hmm i think so
253
2362240
8480
39:33
hello also to oh hailey quang is here hello  to you i believe you are watching in vietnam

259
2431040
6960
40:38
yes we do i think a good subject to talk  about today is something that can be very  
260
2438000
10720
40:48
annoying you see because we were talking  about annoying things a few moments ago
261
2448720
4720
40:55
gossip we are going to talk about  gossip what about you do you like  
262
2455680
7600
41:03
listening to gossip do you like it when people  talk about things concerning other people maybe  
263
2463840
10000
41:13
people's or maybe one of your neighbors private  affairs something that they want to keep a secret  
264

41:22
maybe something that you've heard that you think  is not true what about you do you think it is good  
265
2482480
8080
41:31
to gossip the word gossip there it is i think  this is a very interesting word the word gossip  
266
2491360
8480
41:40
means to talk freely about other people's lives  or other people's private matters if you gossip it  
267
2500800
10480
41:51

269
2520560

42:12

270
2532080
7120
42:21
have you heard the the news have you heard  the gossip so sometimes gossip can be  
271
2541040
5840
42:27
real or true and sometimes gossip can be untrue or  a lie we often describe gossip as hearsay as well  
272
2547600
12960
42:40
you can say hearsay something that you've heard  from another person can be described as hearsay  
273
2560560
7680
42:48
one person says it to another person and then that  person will tell someone else and then they will  
274
2568880
7040
42:55
tell another person hearsay he essay is something  that has been repeated something that one person  
275
2575920
9360
43:05
has heard that they've told another person hearsay  lolly lolly says i love juicy gossip juicy gossip
276
2585280
15200
43:23
juicy gossip is something that you hear or  something that a person wants to tell you  
277
2603840
6880
43:31
that might have an interesting story so go with  it you see do you see i have some juicy gossip  
278
2611680
10400
43:42
normally something very exciting  or something that might be shocking
279
2622880
4560
43:50
another word for gossip is tittle tattle  you can have tithe tattle tittle tattle
280
2630080
7680
44:00
tittle tattle
281
2640640
880
44:04
a person who likes to gossip a person who likes  to tell other people about another person's  
282
2644000
8400
44:12
private life or maybe something they've heard  and they want to tell other people about it they  
283
2652400
6720
44:19
like to title tattle so people that tittle tattle  are talking to each other quite often they will  
284
2659120
9360
44:28
talk about other people's private lives or things  that they've heard tittle tattle i like that one
285
2668480
10560
44:43
another one we have oh now this is a word  that can cause lots of problems and heartache  
286
2683600
7760
44:52
for many people
287
2692080
960
44:55
rumour rumour a story that is going  around maybe something people are saying  
288
2695440
7440
45:03
maybe something that lots of people are  telling each other however they can't prove  
289
2703680
7200
45:11
that that thing is correct they can't prove it  so they hear something and then they tell someone  
290
2711520
6800
45:18
else what they've heard but they don't know if  it is true or not a rumour is something you hear  
291
2718320
8400
45:27
although you're not sure if that thing is accurate  or fake as you see in 2020 we had a lot of people
292
2727520
14160
45:44
making rumours about other people you see so  yes rumour a rumour can be very damaging in  
293
2744400
10640
45:55
fact when you think about it you can say anything  about anyone however if that thing is damaging  
294
2755040
6800
46:02
if it causes damage to that person then you might  find yourself you might find yourself in trouble  
295
2762480
5520
46:09
but yes rumours if you spread a rumour it  is quite often a story that cannot be proved
296
2769920
8400
46:20
you might describe a person as two-faced have  you ever met a person in life who is two-faced  
297
2780400
8320
46:28
a person who seems to have two faces and when we  say two-faced we are describing a person who will  
298
2788720
9360
46:38
behave one way to you when they are with  you but when when they are away from you  
299
2798080
9200
46:48
they will say bad things about you they  have two faces so they will say nice things  
300
2808800
7840
46:56
oh mr duncan it's so nice to meet you oh oh  i really enjoyed your live stream yesterday  
301
2816640
7360
47:04
oh it was so much fun oh it was wonderful and then  you go away and you talk to someone else and then  
302
2824000
7440
47:11
you say oh that mr duncan i can't stand him did  you see his live stream yesterday it was terrible  
303
2831440
8880
47:21
all he kept talking about all they talked about  was mr steve's constipation that's all they talked  
304
2841280
7440
47:28
about it was terrible so a person who has two  faces is a person who might say something nice  
305
2848720
8000
47:36
to your face but they will say something horrible  about you to someone else um i don't like people  
306
2856720
10080
47:46
who are too faced and i will be honest with  you in my life i have met many people who have  
307
2866800
7600
47:55
more than one face hmm another word you can use  is duplicit a person who is duplicit a person  
308

who has two ways of looking at you so maybe they  have a positive way and a negative way so they  
309
2887520
9200
48:16
say good things to your face and bad things when  they are away from you i don't like that at all no
310
2896720
7600
48:28
here's another one you might say that the  word on the street so you might describe a  
311
2908960
7760
48:36
rumor or gossip as word on the street so it means  something that people are talking about generally  
312
2916720
8960
48:46
so a general conversation general gossip  general title tattle might be described  
313
2926240
8080
48:54
as the word on the street something  that you've heard from someone else
314
2934320
7520
49:04
alessandra hello alessandra oh we're  talking about dogs are we oh very nice yes  
315
2944560
7920
49:12
a lot of people seem to enjoy having dogs i think  it's a great thing to have a dog i would not have  
316
2952480
7760
49:20
one myself because i don't think we would be able  to look after it properly you see because mr steve  
317
2960240
7280
49:27
is a busy man i'm a busy man so that is one of  the reasons why we don't have we don't have a dog
318
2967520
9040
49:41
anna hello anna anna carmen says i just gave my  husband the shopping list and it is written on  
319
2981280
9520
49:52
toilet paper
320
2992080
960
49:56
what can i ask you a question why  did you write your shopping list  
321
2996320
3680
50:00
on toilet paper it does seem a very  strange thing to do but then of course  
322
3000720
5680
50:08
you can always use the shopping list  later on you see for something else yeah
323
3008320
5600
50:16
maybe maybe your idea is a good idea yeah i think  so so apparently your husband couldn't believe it  
324
3016000
9840
50:26
your husband was protesting about  the shopping list that you wrote down  
325
3026960
6560
50:34
on toilet paper very  interesting how do you describe  
326
3034640
5200
50:41
the sound of a dog we can say that the dog will  bark bark so you are describing the sound bark  
327
3041840
13120
50:55
however if you want to imitate the  sound of a dog you can go woof woof
328
3055520
12320
51:14
so woof is the imitation of the sound of a  dog very nice hello dynamic hello dynamic  
329
3074080
10960
51:25
nice to see you here as well we are talking about  gossip here's another one to spread gossip oh yes  
330
3085040
10240
51:35
so some people don't just like listening to  gossip they also like to spread gossip we have  
331
3095280
8240
51:44
we have around here i can't say who it is because  i will get into trouble but we have a neighbor  
332
3104880
7200
51:52
around here who often spreads gossip she likes  to talk about other people all the time yes so  
333
3112880
11280
52:04
you might spread gossip a person who likes going  around telling other people about your private
334
3124160
8400
52:12
life
335
3132560
5280
52:22
very annoying very annoying indeed
336
3142480
2800
52:29
mr duncan you imitate the dog very nicely thank  you very much so a person who will spread gossip  
337
3149360
8560
52:38
can be very annoying indeed here's another one oh  you might say that there is a rumor going about
338
3158480
8640
52:49
something that you've heard from another  person you might say oh there's a rumor  
339
3169280
7040
52:56
going about there is a rumor going about it means  people are talking about one particular thing  
340
3176880
7440
53:05
they are gossiping amongst each other there is  a rumor going about a rumor going around nice
341
3185040
12720
53:20
here's another one
342
3200240
880
53:24
gossip someone has been saying
343
3204400
3440
53:30
so this is a way of starting a sentence when  you are talking about what you've heard someone  
344
3210880
7680
53:38
has been saying that mr duncan is doing  live streams every day during february  
345
3218560
6800
53:47
so you might say that someone has been  saying that thing someone has been saying  
346
3227280
6320
53:54
that mr duncan never changes his  socks it's it's a rumor it's gossip
347
3234960
7840
54:06
a person who likes to spread  gossip a person who is always  
348
3246240
4560
54:10
talking about other people might be described as  a busybody ah you see a person who always talks  
349
3250800
10000
54:21
talks to other people spreading  rumors spreading gossip about others  
350
3261520
8080
54:30
they are always interested in other people's  lives and then they talk about those people  
351
3270400
6240
54:37
to other people a person might be described as  a busy body a busy body yes i have a neighbor  
352
3277440
8160
54:46
i have a neighbor who lives very close to me and  she is a busy body she is she is a big busy body
353
3286240
11040
55:03
busy body is a new word yes i live  very close to some busy bodies
354
3303440
6160
55:12
they always like to talk about  other people's private business  
355
3312000
3280
55:16
and if they don't know they just make  it up you see and that's another problem  
356
3316320
4320
55:22
you might talk about where the gossip has come  from you might talk about the source of the gossip  
357
3322160
8000
55:30
so where the gossip has actually come from where  has the story come from where did it originate so  
358
3330160
9840
55:40
you want to know where the story started you want  to know who told you the story where did it come  
359
3340000
7520
55:47
from who is your source of information source so  the place where the gossip started the place where  
360
3347520
13360
56:00
it originated is the source the source of the  gossip hello richard brown richard brown is really  
361
3360880
10320
56:11

56:21
both legs well then richard yes we get your we  get your message thank you very much oh dear  
363
3381520
9280
56:31
the problem is i don't think i don't think richard  knows when to stop i think that is a problem you  
364
3391760
6400
56:38
see sometimes when you do things you have to  know when to stop so you have to say something  
365
3398160
7040
56:45
and then go hmm i think i've said enough i think  it's time to stop so that's it you see that's it
