24:42
when we go to watch a parade at Christmas. The fire department
0
1482900
5360
19:06
of your house. so definitely if you have a wood stove or if you
1
1146120
4560
33:27
the different kinds of fires in nature, so we have brush fires,
2
2007040
5200
26:59
work there. okay. So if you have a fire you sometimes you
3
1619180
5280
37:50
true outside of that.
4
2270080
3440
10:02
fire, which is a controlled planned activity and to be on
5
602160
5040
13:56
have a fire is you have smoke so again if you have fuel and
6
836400
4800
37:42
So where there's smoke, there's fire simply means you've heard
7
2262240
3440
37:10
morning, but it wasn't actually things are going really good
8
2230260
4560
37:07
wasn't working, I can say, Oh, it's just a dumpster fire this
9
2227780
2480
37:32
little bit of money, but he said he was just borrowing it
10
2252020
4240
34:05
control so just fire. that's not a campfire, not something
11
2045580
5600
34:11
that humans have control over, but it's not a building that's
12
2051180
3680
37:23
then there might be something bigger going on. sometimes a
13
2243540
3360
35:13
can't buy firecrackers. So sometimes Canadians will go to
14
2113640
4160
35:03
are illegal, you cannot buy firecrackers in Canada. You can
15
2103640
4880
35:50
you might go to a larger city to watch fireworks. and when
16
2150920
3760
36:57
something that isn't going well. This lesson is not a
17
2217300
2960
35:37
weekend. so we have Victoria Day in May. We also have Canada
18
2137720
4880
36:11
Okay. When you look outside the building, you will see big
19
2171940
3040
34:33
people not putting out their fire properly. A person who
20
2073660
5360
33:23
the question. Earlier about forest fires and I listed all
21
2003540
3500
34:14
on fire. It's fire in the wild. Okay. So often you'll hear on
22
2054860
4080
34:18
the news that there's wildfires in certain countries or there's
23
2058940
3280
33:02
it's fireproof so fireproof we use that word to refer to
24
1982100
4400
33:52
area where there's more. Like bushes and grass, we might call
25
2032240
3820
32:45
drivers wear a fire suit, which is a suit made of fireproof
26
1965480
4720
32:08
fire escape. modern buildings don't always have this, but
27
1928280
3680
32:16
places where there there are still fire escapes. A fire
28
1936040
2960
32:36
stairs on the outside of a building. Sometimes you buy
29
1956920
4720
22:50
smoke detector. Sometimes it's also a carbon monoxide detector
30
1370340
4320
36:14
metal boxes and that's where people put garbage and we call
31
2174980
3440
36:43
relationship is just a dumpster fire and what you mean is that
32
2203700
3440
36:18
it a dumpster. Sometimes people light a dumpster on fire and
33
2178420
4800
36:08
this is kind of a funny phrase. so this is an actual dumpster.
34
2168420
3520
37:04
the if the lesson wasn't. Working right and my internet
35
2224900
2880
37:18
what this means is that if you hear rumors about something,
36
2238420
5120
36:26
phrase is to refer to something that's been a horrible
37
2186820
4080
33:37
really just depends on what is burning. If the forest is on
38
2017600
4560
37:37
there's fire. he's probably. Than stealing more money, okay.
39
2257940
4300
36:47
two people they're always fighting and they don't get
40
2207140
2640
37:14
and we also have a phrase where there's smoke there's fire and
41
2234820
3600
36:53
describe something in the past that didn't go well or
42
2213780
3520
37:36
and they might say hey, you know where there's smoke.
43
2256260
1680
36:49
along. so dumpster fire is kind of a little phrase. We use to
44
2209780
4000
13:38
when you sit around the campfire there are flames, but
45
818360
3360
34:56
arson. It is a crime. I must say that in Canada firecrackers
46
2096600
7040
33:56
it a bush fire and then wildfire all of those phrases
47
2036060
4880
37:00
dumpster fire, but if I had all kinds of technical problems if
48
2220260
4640
36:23
it's called a dumpster fire, but the more common use of this
49
2183220
3600
36:30
disaster, so you could say something like this. Was a real
50
2190900
4560
35:42
Day in July on July 1st and on those 2 days, you will often
51
2142600
4320
35:21
firecrackers. so they'll buy different firecrackers. I may
52
2121640
4960
01:25
to do things we can use fire to change and shape things like
53
85200
5360
37:45
a few rumors about someone so there's probably more that's
54
2265680
4400
37:26
politician, They'll say, so the politician was caught taking a
55
2246900
5120
35:59
what I say when I see fireworks so couple of phrases and we'll
56
2159780
4080
36:39
year was just a mess because of COVID you could say their
57
2199460
4240
33:42
fire, we call it a forest fire. If it's more like a grassy
58
2022160
5040
36:35
dumpster fire of a year. What that means is that the whole
59
2195460
4000
34:22
bush fires or there's grass fires. And it's just when the
60
2062220
4320
35:54
you see fireworks, you usually say Ooh. That's usually that's
61
2154680
5100
36:03
I'll get back to questions one is the phrase dumpster fire. so
62
2163860
4560
35:46
see people shooting off fireworks in their backyard or
63
2146920
4000
35:08
buy fireworks in Canada, which shoot up into the sky, but you
64
2108520
5120
35:33
fireworks here in Canada on what's called the May 2 four
65
2133800
3920
32:33
entrance or the fire escape. so a fire escape is a set of
66
1953000
3920
35:29
in the US and bought some firecrackers fireworks. We have
67
2129800
4000
34:30
these are started by lightning. Sometimes they're started by
68
2070380
3280
34:46
spring on crime, an arsonist is someone who lights buildings
69
2086700
5200
34:43
a crime. We talked about that in our lesson earlier this
70
2083500
3200
34:51
and other things on fire and it is again. The law, it is called
71
2091900
4700
34:26
world around you. The natural world is on fire. Sometimes
72
2066540
3840
35:17
the United States because in some US states you can buy
73
2117800
3840
33:47
area, we might call it a brush fire or a grass fire if it's an
74
2027200
5040
32:59
the things inside the safe would not be destroyed because
75
1979220
2880
35:26
have done. That once when I was younger, I may have went south
76
2126600
3200
34:00
are just used to talk about fire in nature. that's out of
77
2040940
4640
33:19
if something's fireproof, it usually does not burn, we had
78
1999220
4320
33:06
anything that does not burn or does not completely burn.
79
1986500
5760
33:15
burn just very very slowly compared to other things. But
80
1995940
3280
33:32
Bush fires grass fires wildfires forest fires it all
81
2012240
5360
33:12
Sometimes they're just fire resistant, which means they do
82
1992260
3680
34:39
lights fires on purpose is called an arsonist. so arson is
83
2079020
4480
32:54
you can put valuable things and then if your house was on fire,
84
1974820
4400
32:50
material or fire resistant material. This is a say. Where
85
1970200
4620
32:28
have a sign that says in case of fire exit using the normal
86
1948520
4480
32:24
you can use to. Escape in case of fire, so this building might
87
1944120
4400
32:41
things that are fireproof. I talked about how race car
88
1961640
3840
32:11
there are parts of the city like in Toronto. There are
89
1931960
4080
32:19
escape is a set of stairs on the outside of a building that
90
1939000
5120
31:59
elevator. That's a very very common. one
91
1919320
4160
32:04
older taller buildings sometimes have what's called a
92
1924020
4260
31:40
there is a fire don't use the elevator. I think it's called a
93
1900240
3840
31:36
elevator use stairway for exit. So basically it's saying if
94
1896160
4080
30:21
very confusing. Okay on a truck. If you have a truck that
95
1821520
4240
29:48
even say a. Blazing inferno Okay. So an inferno is a really
96
1788300
4060
31:21
case of fire, so this phrase is seen a lot. If you are in
97
1881280
4800
31:17
on the fire drill. This is just something you do to practice in
98
1877040
4240
29:45
like this, we would say it's just it's an inferno. You might
99
1785100
3200
29:25
on the wood and then when they light it, it blows up. There's
100
1765900
3360
29:18
some people sometimes when they're lighting a fire, they
101
1758860
3520
28:32
they sound like tongue twisters a little bit. don't they if a
102
1712960
4880
31:33
fire okay. this one says in case of fire, do not use
103
1893280
2880
31:06
attendance. I have to make sure all my students made it out and
104
1866960
2960
31:13
they go through and they give us a score on how well we did
105
1873440
3600
30:56
school and they set off the fire alarm because they want us
106
1856720
4480
30:46
fire drill. A fire drill is when the fire alarm goes off,
107
1846160
3680
30:37
flammable substance. anything that can burn is called
108
1837680
3680
30:29
stickers like this that say danger flammable because
109
1829840
3440
31:01
to go through what's called a fire drill and then all of the
110
1861200
3360
31:26
buildings that have signs you will see in case of fire and
111
1886080
3600
31:47
fire. so this you will see signs like this in many pub.
112
1907440
3880
31:51
It'll say things like in case of fire exit through the rear
113
1911320
5040
31:04
students and teachers go outside and I have to take
114
1864560
2400
25:21
and they have places for all of the firefighters to ride and
115
1521700
3760
29:52
really really large fire different than a bonfire. A
116
1792360
3760
24:56
more, but both phrases. both terms are very common. The fire
117
1496180
5040
28:25
fire, they can hook their fire hose up to the fire hydrant so
118
1705500
3680
26:38
Firefighters do a lot more than fight fighters, but we still
119
1598800
2080
29:56
bonfire is a fire you plan to have an inferno is usually when
120
1796120
4800
28:48
if it goes bang and there's this loud noise and all kinds
121
1728300
4160
30:25
is delivering diesel fuel or gasoline, there are usually
122
1825760
4080
28:14
large city or even in our small towns, there are usually fire
123
1694140
3840
30:41
flammable. At school, we sometimes have what's called a
124
1841360
4800
29:29
an explosion that's not recommended. I use newspaper
125
1769260
4000
25:57
that because both men and women become firefighters. so you
126
1557480
3360
26:16
Canada. firefighters don't just fight fires. They also go to
127
1576220
5120
26:52
The fire station is the building. The fire department
128
1612220
4160
27:34
talking about. Hopefully that makes sense and then once
129
1654000
3440
30:49
but there's no fire so once or twice a year, The fire
130
1849840
4160
30:11
funny. We have another word inflammatory because it's not
131
1811200
10320
29:09
explosion is a violent release of energy. A lot of light and
132
1749100
4880
27:27
the fire department arrived. so it's more just the trucks and
133
1647920
3440
26:29
department that comes and rescues you so firefighters do
134
1589660
3760
24:02
have a fire. Extinguisher by our wood stove in the house, a
135
1442880
3740
26:11
job. I think it's a very very difficult job by the way in
136
1571900
4320
25:25
when they turn on the siren you need to get out of the way
137
1525460
3440
23:25
floor of your house. Most people have more than that.
138
1405400
4880
22:44
have a fire alarm system houses usually have a smoke alarm a
139
1364180
6160
22:27
fire alarm when you are in a building like a school or a
140
1347300
3920
23:59
shed and we have another fire extinguisher in the barn and we
141
1439280
3600
22:15
ringing and everyone will know they need to leave the
142
1335780
2720
24:06
fire extinguisher is just something you buy and keep
143
1446620
3840
21:56
alarms. Sometimes we call it. smoke. a smoke detector and
144
1316020
4720
24:27
verb structure to put out when you have a fire and you don't
145
1467900
3760
23:54
our stove. We have another fire extinguisher in our machinery
146
1434800
4480
24:48
usually drives in the parade with one of their firetrucks or
147
1488260
3920
22:08
has two components. It has a thing you can manually pull you
148
1328100
4480
23:46
good at putting out a fire on our farm. We have a few fire
149
1426640
4480
31:56
doors or something like that or in case of fire, do not use the
150
1916360
2960
31:09
the fire department. They time us with a stopwatch and then
151
1869920
3520
31:29
this simply means here's what you should do if there is a
152
1889680
3600
31:44
lift in British English. don't use the elevator in case of
153
1904080
3360
30:33
gasoline and diesel fuel burn very easily. So it is a
154
1833280
4400
29:05
everyone gets out of the car, There's an explosion. so an
155
1745820
3280
29:00
if there's a car accident, the car will explode. Usually after
156
1740940
4880
30:06
something can burn, it's flammable now, this is kind of
157
1806720
4480
29:33
and old pizza boxes to start my campfire. An inferno is simply
158
1773260
5600
28:56
say that something exploded when you watch TV shows often.
159
1736540
4400
30:54
department comes to our school. The firefighters come to our
160
1854000
2720
30:00
a large building is on fire, we would call it an inferno. When
161
1800920
5800
29:38
a very very large fire. So if a multi story building looked
162
1778860
6240
28:37
fire. Forcibly I just want to use the word explodes, but if a
163
1717840
5980
29:22
will put gasoline or what you might call petrol on the fire
164
1762380
3520
28:10
hoses in order to get water quickly. So if you go to a
165
1690060
4080
28:52
of flames and and smoke, we say it's an explosion and we would
166
1732460
4080
27:37
again, if you have a fire, the they come to put out the fire.
167
1657440
5280
27:17
is what I would use to talk about the building and the
168
1637340
2720
28:29
they have water. To put out the fire sorry, I don't know it's
169
1709180
3780
29:13
heat. Generally, you don't see explosions very often, although
170
1753980
4880
28:43
fire is burning nicely with flames, it's just a fire, but
171
1723820
4480
27:24
not always just the building because sometimes you might say
172
1644640
3280
27:54
you'd light a fire when you don't want the fire. Anymore
173
1674720
3260
28:17
hydrants kind of spread throughout the town in key
174
1697980
4160
27:51
water and we put out the fire. so if you want to have a fire,
175
1671120
3600
28:05
fire hydrant is a place where firefighters can hook up their
176
1685980
4080
27:20
people and the trucks like that's the fire department. And
177
1640060
4580
27:31
the people I think it's the organization that you're
178
1651360
2640
28:22
areas so that if the firefighters have to fight a
179
1702140
3360
27:42
when we have a campfire we when we have a campfire at the end
180
1662720
5600
27:57
You put out the fire in many cities you will find fire
181
1677980
4560
27:09
have a fire. Okay. So again. Listen closely fire station is
182
1629020
4480
28:02
hydrants. They're usually red. Sometimes they're yellow. a
183
1682540
3440
26:40
call them. firefighters did. I say that right? I think I did
184
1600880
4560
27:48
of the night, we put out the fire. We get some buckets of
185
1668320
2800
26:45
let's move on so. These two terms are kind of interesting.
186
1605440
6780
26:07
firefighter, you would go and fight fires that would be your
187
1567500
4400
26:03
so if you work for. The fire department we would call you a
188
1563880
3620
27:04
call 911 and they will let the fire department know that you
189
1624460
4560
26:35
firefighters. You want me to say that sentencing.
190
1595980
2820
27:13
what I would use to talk about the building. Fire department
191
1633500
3840
26:00
can't use the word firemen anymore. It doesn't make sense.
192
1560840
3040
25:54
using for the last ten or 20 years. that kind of correct
193
1554040
3440
26:56
is the building and the firetrucks and the people that
194
1616380
2800
24:18
to put out the fire. So if you remember earlier, I said when
195
1458940
4400
25:47
for occupations that are gender specific. They have the word
196
1547480
3600
24:38
here, firetruck and fire engine. so this has two names
197
1478340
4560
26:21
car accidents. They're also good at rescuing people if they
198
1581340
5280
25:28
because it means they're going to go somewhere to put out a
199
1528900
3280
26:26
like if people fall down a hill. It's usually the fire
200
1586620
3040
24:10
until there's a fire and then you grab it. You pull the pin
201
1450460
3600
24:23
something is on fire or when you have a fire, there's also a
202
1463340
4560
26:33
a lot more than fight fires, but we still call them
203
1593420
2560
25:32
fire. Yeah, we're doing well so I used the word firemen just
204
1532180
6100
25:38
earlier and we don't actually use the term firemen anymore.
205
1538280
3600
25:51
man in it. We actually have newer terms that we've been
206
1551080
2960
25:41
We usually use the term firefighter most of our names
207
1541880
5600
25:04
firefighters has a. A different a bunch of different fire
208
1504340
4240
25:08
trucks or fire engines. These are vehicles that are built to
209
1508580
4560
24:31
want it anymore. You need to put out the fire. Let's see
210
1471660
6680
25:17
have tanks of water. Some of them have water pumps built in
211
1517300
4400
25:13
fight fires. They have ladders they have hoses some of them
212
1513140
4160
24:52
one of their fire engines. I actually use the term firetruck
213
1492180
4000
25:01
department that's the place where the firemen work. the
214
1501220
3120
23:51
extinguishers. We actually have a small fire extinguisher by
215
1431120
3680
23:42
usually it's more likely some type of chemical that's really
216
1422480
4160
23:30
okay, just because people want to be safe. Fire extinguisher.
217
1410280
3880
24:14
and you shoot whatever's inside at the bottom part of the fire
218
1454060
4880
23:34
A fire extinguisher is something that has things
219
1414160
4480
23:21
in Canada, you are required to have one smoke alarm on every
220
1401000
4400
23:38
inside that will put out a fire. sometimes it's water, but
221
1418640
3840
23:10
because we want to make sure the smoke alarms are working.
222
1390440
3040
21:49
a little bit about fire alarms so. Houses usually have smoke
223
1309960
6060
22:23
smoke and heat detector as well and that can also. Set off the
224
1343380
3920
22:58
packaging in Canada is to call it a. Smoke alarm okay so every
225
1378900
4100
23:13
We test them as well. There's a little button where you can
226
1393480
2640
23:16
press it to test it. And as the question earlier, referred to
227
1396120
4880
23:03
year, sorry, my little my mustache is a little itchy
228
1383000
3040
22:54
or fire detector. The most common phrase I noticed on our
229
1374660
4240
22:35
you're supposed to exit the building immediately and safely
230
1355060
4880
22:04
Okay, and there's a slight difference here. A fire alarm
231
1324740
3360
22:39
so houses do not have fire alarms. But most buildings will
232
1359940
4240
22:18
building, but it also has a sensor so it does have like a
233
1338500
4880
23:06
every year. We replace the batteries in our smoke alarm
234
1386040
4400
21:45
let's talk a little bit. Maybe I'll move to. yeah, let's talk
235
1305320
4640
21:30
fireflies. they're beautiful. It's kind of fun to sit and
236
1290920
2800
22:31
library or an office building. If you hear the fire alarm,
237
1351220
3840
22:12
can pull the fire alarm and then the bell will start
238
1332580
3200
21:37
look into the dark, you'll see fireplace Sorry fireflies. So
239
1297640
7680
21:27
summer. If we are outside at night, you sometimes will see
240
1287000
3920
21:33
watch either. The fire is memorizing or if you turn and
241
1293720
3920
22:00
buildings like at my school usually have a fire alarm.
242
1320740
4000
21:04
the dark. I don't know if you have them where you live, but a
243
1264200
3840
20:47
they have a fire, they usually have it in a fire pit just so
244
1247880
4080
21:15
yellow glow that appears and those are called fireflies. I
245
1275800
4400
21:08
lot of times when we're outside having a campfire. If you look
246
1268040
3680
20:40
and they'll use that as their fire pit so their campfires a
247
1240380
3280
20:43
little bit more raised off the ground, but definitely. When
248
1243660
4220
20:31
a shallow hole and that's our fire pit. That's where we have
249
1231660
3200
20:34
a fire. Some people will get the old metal rim from a tire
250
1234860
5520
20:12
actually have an electric fireplace in one of the rooms.
251
1212720
4880
20:06
Eugene saying we have an electronic fireplace. Some
252
1206320
2800
19:01
roof of your house so that the smoke from the fire can get out
253
1141560
4560
19:41
wood that you use is called firewood. This firewood is
254
1181780
3440
19:20
although it's not common. For Canadians to have a cooking,
255
1160840
3660
18:43
because a lot of the heat in a fireplace goes up the chimney
256
1123940
4240
19:36
electric or gas appliances, and then, of course, the type of
257
1176260
5520
19:14
if you have a wood stove in your kitchen or if you have a
258
1154120
3680
17:54
they're going to burn wood prefer to use a wood stove. But
259
1074040
3440
18:11
fire hazard. so it's easy. Embers to pop out. Usually
260
1091960
4940
18:58
not normally called a pipe. It's a flue that goes up to the
261
1138360
3200
18:48
and so there you go. Chimney A chimney is basically a long we
262
1128180
5940
17:32
saying what the kind of coal is like charcoal. Yeah a little
263
1052940
3120
17:20
use their wood stoves. They'll cook a little bit of stuff.
264
1040940
2960
17:06
stove in our house. We don't use it as often as we used to,
265
1026300
4240
16:57
very calming and soothing kind of light. So here's your wood
266
1017180
5280
16:49
can see on these people's faces. you can see them because
267
1009260
3920
17:02
stove. There are many different styles. We actually have a wood
268
1022460
3840
16:44
by the fire light. It's this beautiful soft orange glow you
269
1004300
4960
19:49
length and then you split it because when you split the wood
270
1189700
3760
18:16
people have a metal screen in front, but they're also
271
1096900
3280
18:25
wood to heat really really well. a fireplace is less
272
1105140
5440
19:27
people do have an outdoor pizza oven or an outdoor oven that
273
1167940
5200
18:54
say flue by the way it's a long, I'll say pipe, but it's
274
1134120
4240
18:35
again, a wood stove is very efficient. Okay. You get more
275
1115780
3760
20:59
when we are out at night, there are little flies that glow in
276
1259800
4400
19:58
firewood. We have a stack of firewood in our shed and when
277
1198160
4400
17:45
not a not a scientist and then rod earlier was asking about a
278
1065720
4320
20:17
And we have a fire pit when we have a fire at our place when
279
1217640
5300
19:33
they might use. but generally in our kitchens, we have
280
1173140
3120
18:30
efficient. so more of the heat just goes up the chimney. so
281
1110580
5200
19:45
split. so when you have a log, you usually cut it to a certain
282
1185220
4480
21:20
don't think. They exist in every part of the world. they
283
1280200
3920
18:39
heat for every piece of wood than you would with a fireplace
284
1119540
4400
13:46
sitting around the campfire, the smoke always seems to blow
285
826320
3040
16:23
If I'm going to teach English, I need to make sure I know my
286
983600
3200
17:23
Maybe they'll do a pan of soup. They'll make a pan of soup, but
287
1043900
4480
13:13
fire that's just really really big, like maybe three or four
288
793400
5120
17:40
and it's all black, you could call that charcoal. Again, I'm
289
1060220
5500
16:53
of the fire light and fire light is a very cool. I find
290
1013180
4000
16:12
are using it because if we don't clean the ash out of the
291
972880
3120
13:09
campfire, they will have a bonfire where they light. A
292
789500
3900
13:01
campfire, though it's when you yeah, sometimes when people
293
781900
4160
16:09
something that we have to clean out of our wood stove when we
294
969040
3840
13:52
place to sit. but one of the things that you have when you
295
832800
3600
13:29
campfire. When you have a fire, you have smoke okay. There's a
296
809960
5440
13:21
some places in the world where they have huge parties and they
297
801480
3840
15:53
fire burns it produces. Heat it produces flames it produces
298
953700
4620
16:01
ash so this gray substance we would call ash and. Ash is
299
961360
7680
12:35
reason is we do usually cook some food over it. We make we
300
755720
5360
11:50
that I would see in Canada would be a campfire. Okay. We
301
710640
3760
11:13
and we call that Kindling. So if we have a campfire on our
302
673600
4320
12:16
invite my brothers and sisters over, we have a small campfire.
303
736840
3280
11:54
don't often light fires to cook. Although I do know that
304
714400
4320
10:46
the far end and the middle pieces of wood we would call
305
646460
4160
12:01
fire or to light something up to light wood on fire in order
306
721600
4880
11:58
around the world, it is still quite common to have a cooking
307
718720
2880
21:24
are quite common here, though we often see them in the
308
1284120
2880
21:11
away from the fire, you will see a little like a green
309
1271720
4080
20:55
Sometimes people just have the fire on the ground. fireflies
310
1255960
3840
20:26
place where we've kind of dug a little hole in the ground just
311
1226780
4880
20:51
that it's kind of contained a little bit in one place.
312
1251960
4000
20:22
we have a campfire, it's always in the same place. We have a
313
1222940
3840
20:02
we need more firewood, we go out and get a piece. I see
314
1202560
3760
19:10
have a fireplace, you definitely have a chimney and
315
1150680
3440
19:53
into smaller pieces, it burns a little. Easier Okay. So that is
316
1193460
4700
15:21
an S is what's at the. Bottom of a fire sometimes when we
317
921920
4660
20:09
people do have electric fireplaces at our school. We
318
1209120
3600
19:24
fire or a wood stove in their kitchen for cooking, some
319
1164500
3440
14:27
are mesmerizing embers that come off of a fire are
320
867840
3600
18:07
to use fireplaces for two reasons. It's a bit more of a
321
1087960
4000
19:17
fireplace in your kitchen, you will also have a chimney
322
1157800
3040
17:10
but a wood stove is kind of. Place where you can burn wood
323
1030540
4960
17:15
for heat, we don't use our wood stove to cook some people do
324
1035500
5440
17:50
fireplace and I'd mentioned that most Canadian homes if
325
1070040
4000
17:36
bit the coals you know when when you burn wood partially
326
1056060
4160
15:45
flame, but sometimes that burns things you also have ash when
327
945220
5200
16:20
I think it's a Mineral II need to take some science classes.
328
980160
3440
15:58
smoke, but at the bottom you have coals, but you also have
329
958320
3040
18:20
inefficient a wood stove is very efficient. It converts
330
1100180
4960
17:28
we don't do that. So I see in the question in the chat, Andre
331
1048380
4560
17:57
we do also have houses with fireplaces a fireplace is more
332
1077480
5120
16:16
stove, it starts to build up, Maddie says Black mineral. Yes,
333
976000
4160
15:50
you have a fire. I think you're familiar with this that when a
334
950420
3280
16:36
light. Okay. So it's nice when you sit around a campfire
335
996240
4640
15:30
coals and then we cook over the hot coals. so coals are like
336
930660
5680
14:31
mesmerizing as well. glowing embers. Sometimes they land on
337
871440
4320
16:32
campfire or any fire is that you get what's called fire
338
992320
3920
14:53
it to burn. A hole in your clothes after a fire burns for
339
893040
4560
15:18
something you can dig out of the ground and burn coals with
340
918560
3360
14:18
fire as well, you have embers so embers are small little
341
858960
3680
18:02
of an open area where you can burn wood as well. We tend not
342
1082600
5360
14:35
your clothes though, and then they burn a hole in it. I've
343
875760
3600
15:01
while. the wood starts to turn a little bit black and we call
344
901680
5120
15:13
that they get out of the ground. It's like a hard black
345
913040
2720
16:40
because you're. You see everything around you is lit up
346
1000880
3420
15:42
That's the best way to cook. You can cook over the open
347
942500
2720
16:26
science as well. One of the other cool things about a
348
986800
5520
15:26
have a campfire, we let it burn for a while until it's just
349
926580
4080
15:06
this the coals. it's not actually coal coal is a fuel
350
906800
6240
13:41
there is also a smoke that. Off the fire, usually when I'm
351
821720
4600
13:49
towards me and then I usually have to move to find a new
352
829360
3440
14:57
a while, let me make this a bit bigger after a fire burns for a
353
897600
4080
15:15
mineral. I think it's a mineral, but it's coal is
354
915760
2800
12:45
sometimes we make something called a s'more. I'm not sure
355
765180
3280
14:47
fire. It'll go pop and it'll land and you're like oh and you
356
887040
3360
15:36
the black and slightly glowing hot parts of of the fire.
357
936340
6160
14:43
popping and all of a sudden a hot Ember will fly off the
358
883200
3840
14:22
glowing particles that come off of the fire as much as flames
359
862640
5200
14:05
and if you have oxygen, you will have a fire and that fire
360
845280
3680
14:08
will produce in a car. we would call it exhaust, but with a
361
848960
4480
13:25
light bonfires. So a bonfire is simply a really really big
362
805320
4640
13:06
have a big party, they will instead of having a small
363
786060
3440
13:35
phrase about this that I'm going to teach you later. But
364
815400
2960
14:13
campfire we would call it smoke. You. When you have a
365
853440
5520
14:01
if you have a source of heat or something to ignite the fire
366
841200
4080
14:50
want to get it off of your clothes because you don't want
367
890400
2640
12:28
two reasons. It's warm and cozy and gives a little bit of
368
748040
4400
14:39
had that happen a few times where the fire is crackling and
369
879360
3840
13:18
meters high. They'll they'll just light a bonfire. There are
370
798520
2960
12:32
light. I guess that's two reasons already. The second
371
752440
3280
12:11
camping, we call it a campfire. Okay. So on my farm when I
372
731720
5120
12:56
so a bonfire is a very large fire. okay similar to a
373
776700
5200
11:44
to start a fire and generally the most common type of fire
374
704560
6080
12:48
if you know what that is, you might want to look it up on the
375
768460
2720
12:06
to cook, but we generally have campfires even. If you're not
376
726480
5240
12:51
internet. A bigger fire we would sometimes call a bonfire.
377
771180
5520
12:41
roast. Hot dogs, Sometimes we roast marshmallows and
378
761080
4100
11:35
possibly great song. Have to look it up later, but yes,
379
695920
4800
12:23
a campfire. so campfire is a small fire and it's made for
380
743800
4240
11:28
the fire started, I see Mo eggs is singing this girl is on
381
688240
3600
11:05
lighter to start that on fire, but if you have. Pieces of wood
382
665100
4100
11:22
it into small little pieces to use as kindling in order to get
383
682640
5600
12:20
No one is sleeping in a tent that night, but we just call it
384
740120
3680
11:00
on fire. When you have a log a big log, it's hard to use a
385
660140
4960
11:31
fire. I don't know who sings that. Oh is it Alicia Keys
386
691840
4080
11:09
or small sticks. It's a lot easier to start that on fire
387
669200
4400
10:55
small pieces or or lengths of wood that are easier to start
388
655260
4880
11:40
kindling small pieces of wood that you will use when you want
389
700720
3840
10:50
Kindling Kindling is wood. that's cut into very, very
390
650620
4640
11:17
farm, I usually get my Axe and I get a piece of wood and I cut
391
677920
4720
10:41
at this picture, the really really small pieces of wood at
392
641820
4640
10:26
was on fire in the last game. That means that they always had
393
626960
2960
09:46
you're talking usually about something like the house was on
394
586500
3680
07:19
talking about? Yes when the power goes out, Sometimes you
395
439040
2160
10:33
They were on fire. Hey. In order to have a fire or to
396
633040
5340
09:54
Their house was on fire, so they needed to call the fire
397
594660
3120
07:04
out, you will light candles so that you can see at night,
398
424000
5840
08:51
on fire that wouldn't be good. So let's talk about those two
399
531380
5200
09:00
fire and the phrase to be on fire, okay, so sometimes we
400
540980
5280
09:32
you mean, you're having a small fire, usually a campfire to
401
572500
4720
08:56
phrases. There's a big diff. Between the phrase to have a
402
536580
4400
08:10
you have light so a lantern or lamp is not used for heat even
403
490680
5520
08:40
a lamp somewhere. We just don't currently use it because once
404
520100
3680
08:06
kind of have what's called a wick and you light it. and then
405
486920
3760
07:58
a source of fuel in the bottom. It's usually some kind of oil.
406
478600
4480
05:42
lighter.
407
342480
2480
06:24
easily and you strike a match and it produces a flame and you
408
384020
4960
05:36
they're actually a little they're a little more complex
409
336320
3040
06:35
one of the things that many of us have in our homes. Many of
410
395220
3840
05:00
can see someone is burning a book, sometimes in certain
411
300240
3920
04:24
is on fire in order to make things move. Moved let's see
412
264980
5580
06:19
something on the end. that is flammable something that burns
413
379780
4240
05:57
to start a fire. If I wanted to start a fire or if I wanted to
414
357360
4800
04:09
it to talk about cars cars either have an electric motor
415
249700
4640
03:00
in our cars is considered fuel wood is considered fuel coal is
416
180860
4960
05:07
book, but the verb we use to talk about a fire or creating a
417
307440
5440
04:14
or they have an internal combustion engine because
418
254340
3600
03:46
you have oxygen and you have heat and because of that the
419
226780
4880
02:40
if you know that word, but I could sit and look at a fire
420
160140
3760
08:35
still do use lanterns or lamps. We actually own one. We do have
421
515940
4160
09:14
have what's called a campfire. we would use this phrase to
422
554260
4000
09:42
is on fire, okay. So when you use the phrase to be on fire,
423
582020
4480
10:38
start a fire, sometimes you need kindling. So if you look
424
638380
3440
10:19
a job efficiently. you could. If you're talking about a an
425
619600
3680
10:07
fire, okay now, I did earlier use the phrase that I was on
426
607200
4080
09:18
describe it. I would say to my brothers and sisters. Hey,
427
558260
2640
09:50
fire. Okay or their house accidentally caught on fire.
428
590180
4480
06:48
is not working when you don't have electricity when the power
429
408500
4000
07:21
light candles, although it is considered somewhat dangerous
430
441200
4320
06:02
light a fire, I would probably use a lighter. I don't smoke.
431
362160
4420
08:16
though it does produce a little bit of warmth. but generally it
432
496200
3520
07:29
use flashlights instead because they're safer. We don't want to
433
449940
4320
07:38
candles can be a fire hazard. See what I mean you gotta
434
458740
3680
01:42
the discovery of fire whoever that first person was that
435
102140
4480

64160
4160
01:13
many years ago, somebody discovered fire and they
438
73440
2960
00:58
Hopefully you know what that means it means that I was
439
58180
2160
01:50
course of history at the time. So fire a chemical reaction
440
110780
4240
00:49
about phrases where we use the word hot or fire in them. I was
441
49940
4320
09:37
enjoy to sit around, usually at night, Okay, but when something
442
577220
4800
00:08
to tell that joke with a straight face. It's a hot topic
443
8800
3200
00:12
today. Be sure to warm your hearts. Sorry, let me stop
444
12000
5680
02:22
if you accidentally touch them. But if you sit and look at a
445
142860
3440
09:27
yeah we had a. A fire last week. When you use that phrase,
446
567220
5280
00:00
Well, hello and welcome to this English lesson where I'm going
447
0
4000
02:29
flames inside of the fire. so they're kind of the wavy
448
149900
5120
08:47
something that could accidentally start other things
449
527780
3600
00:20
English lesson about fire. The topic today is fire. As you
450
20160
4080
10:23
athlete, you could say, maybe your favorite football player
451
623280
3680
10:29
the ball they they kept scoring. They did really well.
452
629920
3120
10:16
when we talk about doing a job quickly doing a job well doing
453
616000
3600
08:43
again, it is a bit of a fire hazard. A fire hazard is
454
523780
4000
07:53
of use the word interchangeably a lantern or. Lamp usually has
455
473540
5060
09:10
farm where we put Wood and we light the wood on fire and we
456
550180
4080
07:00
of candles somewhere in your house, and if the power goes
457
420560
3440
09:24
to come over? Bring some marshmallows and hotdogs or
458
564220
3000
08:19
is used to give you light and sometimes if you watch an older
459
499720
5360
08:28
Place in the west in the United States, you'll often see people
460
508660
4240
08:32
using lanterns or lamps and I know around the world. people
461
512900
3040
08:03
In fact, many of them were called oil lamps and then you
462
483080
3840
10:11
fire yesterday. This is an idiom. We use a phrase we use
463
611280
4720
07:42
listen to what I say. don't you. I'm using a lot of
464
462420
2320
07:34
accidentally start a fire with the candles that we have out
465
454260
4480
09:06
will have a fire here at the farm. We have an area on the
466
546260
3920
09:57
department. so there's a big difference between. Having a
467
597780
4380
06:44
produce a little bit of light, especially when the electricity
468
404180
4320
06:55
Sometimes you will pull out the candles. maybe you have a box
469
415820
4740
06:28
can use a match to light a fire or to start a fire as well. And
470
388980
6240
07:11
Bernard says. Lighter is Bernard Bernard. So what was I
471
431260
7780
07:44
different phrases. We don't use these anymore but a long time
472
464740
4800
06:16
usually a piece of wood sometimes cardboard with
473
376660
3120
07:25
when the. Goes out We do light a few candles, but usually we
474
445520
4420
07:49
ago in Canada, people would have lanterns or lamps. We kind

4000
08:25
television show, especially a western something that takes.
476
505080
3580
06:52
is out.
477
412500
2560
06:10
a lighter. I could also use a match so a match is a small,
478
370420
6240
03:55
kind of the exhaust part and it will produce heat. And light,
479
235740
4040
06:39
us have candles. so candles are one of the simplest ways to
480
399060
5120
05:39
than that. So this is a lighter. This is actually a bit
481
339360
3120
05:53
France called Bick and it is one of the things you can use
482
353200
4160
05:12
fire is that we will burn something in order to have a
483
312880
4560
04:42
we talk about when something is lit on fire is to burn. Okay.
484
282160
5040
06:06
But if I smoke cigarettes, I would light my cigarette using
485
366580
3840
05:31
lessons work. they seem like simple vocabulary lessons. But
486
331760
4560
04:30
here Ninety-six Prana says combustion The chemical process
487
270560
3680
03:35
at another word. This is more of a scientific word for fire
488
215900
5520
04:47
So in the winter, sometimes I burn wood in my wood stove.
489
287200
4720
05:27
teaching, but the phrases I'm using that's kind of how these
490
327120
4640
04:51
When my furnace in my house starts up to heat our house, it
491
291920
3920
05:04
countries they will ban a book and then people will burn the
492
304160
3280
04:55
burns oil. We have an oil furnace in this picture. You
493
295840
4400
05:17
fire in order to light something on fire. Please pay
494
317440
5760
04:20
actually lighting a gasoline or diesel fuel is combustion. It
495
260820
4160
02:35
glowing. Cool parts of the fire and mesmerizing. I'm not sure
496
155020
5120
02:26
fire, you will see the fire, but you will also see all the
497
146300
3600
03:09
occur in order to have a fire, you certainly need fuel. you
498
189900
4560
05:49
French. This is a lighter. It's a bit lighter from a company in
499
349360
3840
05:45
I don't know what the what the word is. I can't remember in
500
345900
3460
02:50
coming out of the fire. In order to have a fire, you need
501
170780
5280
02:47
especially when you just look at all the individual flames
502
167980
2800
04:37
light. Thank you very much for that. So the verb we use when
503
277600
4560
04:34
occurred with the help of oxygen the product heat and
504
274240
3360
05:23
attention during the lesson to not just the words I'm
505
323200
3920
03:14
need something to burn. You need something to light on
506
194460
4080
03:22
or you need fuel and I just. A few I see Judith in the chat
507
202940
5680
02:13
light that you see in a fire flames are beautiful. flames
508
133820
5200
02:08
will see flames so flames are the individual flickers of
509
128780
5040
01:16
learned that it was good for a number of things. It keeps us
510
76400
3360
03:05
considered fuel, but in order for the chemical reaction to
511
185820
4080
03:51
fuel will light on fire and it will produce smoke, which is
512
231660
4080
03:59
so combustion is just simply more of a scientific term for
513
239780
4400
03:18
fire. so in order to have a fire, you need a source of fuel
514
198540
4400
02:56
fuel that fuel can take many many forms. The gasoline we put
515
176060
4800
03:28
saying mesmerizing it is true. Yes. fire is definitely
516
208620
3520
00:54
on fire yesterday when I was looking for words and phrases.
517
54260
3920
04:17
inside of an internal combustion engine. We're
518
257940
2880
04:04
what we normally just call fire. It's a word that we use
519
244180
5520
03:41
is combustion so combustion is when you have a source of fuel
520
221420
5360
00:36
There are a number of things that I have to talk about
521
36580
3040
03:32
something that's mesmerizing, something that's cool to look
522
212140
3760
01:35
important things that was discovered some people think
523
95660
3280
02:19
are mesmerizing flames will burn you flames will burn you
524
139020
3840
02:43
for a long time. It's just very beautiful to look at and
525
163900
4080
01:00
working hard and fast and I was doing well but anyways welcome.
526
60340
3820
01:58
use probably almost every day in some form. If you look. Out
527
118620
5120
00:39
today. Once again, I was surprised when choosing this
528
39620
2800
01:30
metal, for instance, so fire was. Probably one of the most
529
90560
5100
00:24
recall last week, the topic was water. I am working my way
530
24240
3600
00:46
could do a whole second lesson at some point where I just talk
531
46180
3760
01:19
warm. It cooks our food. It helps us in an industrial age
532
79760
5440
01:55
where you get heat and light and something that all of us
533
115020
