I really like and enjoy this podcast. It was so funny when Kat thought that Mark was exposing his credit card. I appreciate both of you for the effort you put into sharing your culture
😄 Fortunately it's an expired one so I thought it was safe to use! So glad you enjoyed this episode, we really liked making this one too. Our next episode will be on quite a similar topic 😀
Thanks to both of u .I really appreciate ur effort to boost and take our English to the next level. I joined this channel late of may ,this year. ameliorate and feel a quick tweak in my vocabulary .
Every single episode is very useful.^^ This is my favorite channel lately.^^💕 And two teacher’s voice is clear to listen. Thank you so much and have a great day.😊
I watch many English teacher and I'm having a tough times to restrain the words I have just heard from them ,however you two leave me some words inside my mind and I got a chance to use it to my conversation when Im talking to my colleagues,by the way Im from the Philippines
Thank you for your kind words! We’re very happy you found us! We’ll keep making videos and you keep working hard 👏👏 see you Wednesday for our newest video!
Rigid Entrees-the main course Pub _ a bar and food Apps short form for appetizers nibble on them snack on sth Communal Do desert Billfold It is my treat- it is on me Thank you❤❤❤
Весело получилось. Интересно слушать не только разницу в словах но и об разных обычиях ваших стран. Поговорите о фильмах и шоу которые вы смотрите по телевизору обычно.
I saw your video for the first time. It is very educational and practical for speaking English. It's especially good for me to understand the difference between US culture and UK culture. I think I will be a huge fan.
Very interesting! Soups in Western menus are often quite simple, like mushroom or tomato soups. We don't usually have anything like "Borscht", maybe that would be listed under a "stew" on a British or American menu :)
@@highlevellistening great! Thanks. Can you tell me, please, if in English or American English the phrase "I'm stuffed" is considered to be a slang or rude. The matter is our Russian teacher thinks that it is not just "full" but it's the same as the verb "pig out" or "pork out", that it's a low language. Now I doubt, if it's okay to tell "I'm stuffed" in any situation (or just among friends as a slang word)? Phrase, help me🤔
Hi! I'm stuffed is not really rude or impolite, we actually use it to say "I'm really very full, and I couldn't really eat anything else!" so like: Would you like some dessert? Would you like some more? Oh no thank you, I'm stuffed! It was so good, thanks. Pig out is usually used with friends to say I'm going to eat a lot and eat very unhealthily haha, I'm gonna pig out on junk food this weekend, don't call me. lolol hope that helps!
Thank you for the nice video again. It's interesting the word "pub" which offers many kinds of food and drinks. We have, in Japan, the same sound word "pub" that offers mainly alcoholic beverages and glamour ladies. We have the word "Izakaya" which counterparts the word English pub. Of course, the word "pub" might come from Mark's country, however, the word meaning has been changed, in our country where most nations are not familiar with English. If I have a chance to visit England, I could ask "could you recommend a good pub" without hesitated.
That’s a great point! Thanks for sharing your experience, even in the US, bars are almost 100% for adults and a pub experience was much more family friendly for sure. Pubs are some of our favorite places for a nice traditional English meal ☺️
That’s a great question! Usually overwhelmed means stressed and is often used negatively, but the phrase “overwhelmed by the support/response” (I think that’s what we said in the video) can also mean that we are feeling very emotional and is a positive phrase that can mean filled with emotion 🥰🥰 Thanks for listening and for a great question ☺️
Pls make video school teacher instructions for students . when teacher enter in class so what should they speak for taking attendance and when they have to say for books and copy and whatever related school and class pls pls
Thank you so much for your videos. Your explanations are amazing. In this episode, you said about a different meaning of the verb "to do" in the phrase "to do dessert". It's like "to experience". I've got a question. What does the verb "do" mean in the phrase "the restaurant does a good set menu"? Is it "serve" or maybe "cook"?
Yes exactly that! The chef does a great steak! Means he makes the steak but with his own professional experience, very common with cooking, she does great cookies, this restaurant does great fish. Thanks for your question and joining us in class!
Hello guys, thanks a lot for this kind video. I have been watching these videos for a month, and I have a question , When I watch your videos I can understand 99 % almost 100 % but when I watch bbc news and English movies I can't get even 90 % what should I do ? I need your advice. Thanks a lot
Hello! That's a good question and a few other students are in the same situation. Our videos are made as educational content first and foremost, so Kat and I talk and teach in a way that's designed for students to comprehend and be able to hear things said multiple times. The news, TV shows and movies are in a completely different topic. The news especially uses language designed to pack in as much information as possible in a short time (words like 'bulletin' and 'flash update' are all focused on giving news quickly). So it's quite the opposite of what we do here; news articles never repeat, avoid using the same words and talk quickly as they expect they are talking to a native audience. If the news is really difficult to understand, then maybe this site would be of interest to you: www.send7.org/ - It's ESL news every day. It's also beneficial to watch a short news story 3, 4, 5 times or even more (if it's 2 minutes or less). With repeat listens you will start to pick up new words more clearly. Of course I would still recommend our channel as well for vocabulary and phrases. If it ever feels too easy you could put it in 1.5x speed in UA-cam and see if you can keep up! :)
At the end of this podcast Kat said ... And then you think, I could do fancy. If you're paying, if you're paying, I can [00:31:00] do fancy. You're right. What does I could do fancy means?
Great question! It's meant to be a bit of a joke: "If you're paying, I can do fancy" I don't normally want to pay a lot of money for a high quality restaurant, but if I don't have to pay, then I would be interested in going to a fancy restaurant. "I can/could do..." is a way to say, I would like to go to a fancy restaurant. what would you like to eat later? I could do Italian. I could do something quick. means I'm interested in Italian or eating something quick hope that helps!
"Overwhelmed" is when you feel stressed or confused because there are so many many things. Maybe if you have a lot of tasks to do at work, you can feel overwhelmed. Maybe if you have to do a lot of chores and cleaning at home, you can feel overwhelmed. Or if you visit a big city with lots of taxis, people, bikes, noise, traffic, sellers - you can feel overwhelmed. Hope that helps!
I really appreciate your project to have both teachers from the US and the UK at the same time the same topic, to have cultural and grammatical comparison. Great! And really unic. I wish you a lot of success a lot of stength. Thanks a lot.

That's veo interesting about soup, because in Russia we consider soup to be a main course, not a starter) thanks❤
Very interesting! Soups in Western menus are often quite simple, like mushroom or tomato soups. We don't usually have anything like "Borscht", maybe that would be listed under a "stew" on a British or American menu :)
@@highlevellistening great! Thanks. Can you tell me, please, if in English or American English the phrase "I'm stuffed" is considered to be a slang or rude.

I am at loss for words ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much! We're glad you found us!
It was amazing, thank you, Could you please do a podcast about dating
Great idea! We’ll add it to our list of topics ☺️
Thank you for the nice video again. It's interesting the word "pub" which offers many kinds of food and drinks.

You rock.
Thanks so much ☺️
Thank you for your episodes It's so helpfull for us in learning natural speech
I want you to ask something. Does overwhelmed mean delighted?
That’s a great question! Usually overwhelmed means stressed and is often used negatively, but the phrase “overwhelmed by the support/response” (I think that’s what we said in the video) can also mean that we are feeling very emotional and is a positive phrase that can mean filled with emotion 🥰🥰
Thanks for listening and for a great question ☺️
Pls make video school teacher instructions for students . when teacher enter in class so what should they speak for taking attendance and when they have to say for books and copy and whatever related school and class pls pls
Interesting idea, we'll think about it!
Thank you so much for your videos. Your explanations are amazing. In this episode, you said about a different meaning of the verb "to do" in the phrase "to do dessert". It's like "to experience". I've got a question. What does the verb "do" mean in the phrase "the restaurant does a good set menu"? Is it "serve" or maybe "cook"?
Yes exactly that! The chef does a great steak! Means he makes the steak but with his own professional experience, very common with cooking, she does great cookies, this restaurant does great fish. Thanks for your question and joining us in class!
Hello guys, thanks a lot for this kind video. I have been watching these videos for a month, and I have a question , When I watch your videos I can understand 99 % almost 100 % but when I watch bbc news and English movies I can't get even 90 % what should I do ? I need your advice. Thanks a lot
Hello! That's a good question and a few other students are in the same situation.
Our videos are made as educational content first and foremost, so Kat and I talk and teach in a way that's designed for students to comprehend and be able to hear things said multiple times.
The news, TV shows and movies are in a completely different topic. The news especially uses language designed to pack in as much information as possible in a short time (words like 'bulletin' and 'flash update' are all focused on giving news quickly). So it's quite the opposite of what we do here; news articles never repeat, avoid using the same words and talk quickly as they expect they are talking to a native audience.
If the news is really difficult to understand, then maybe this site would be of interest to you: www.send7.org/ - It's ESL news every day. It's also beneficial to watch a short news story 3, 4, 5 times or even more (if it's 2 minutes or less). With repeat listens you will start to pick up new words more clearly.
Of course I would still recommend our channel as well for vocabulary and phrases. If it ever feels too easy you could put it in 1.5x speed in UA-cam and see if you can keep up! :)
Great ❤
Thank you ☺️
Great video, but it would have been interesting to hear something about the topic of tipping
That's a good idea for a future video! We've talked about that topic and we think it could be a full video in the future.
Fabulous
Thanks so much! We're glad to have to here as a High Level Listener!
Your topic is really promising
Thanks so much! ☺️
Great lesson！ just from my curious, couples also split the bill in UK？
Yes definitely. Sometimes people even bring out their phones and start using the calculator to figure out exactly how much they need to pay 😅
At the end of this podcast Kat said ... And then you think, I could do fancy. If you're paying, if you're paying, I can [00:31:00] do fancy. You're right. What does I could do fancy means?
Great question! It's meant to be a bit of a joke: "If you're paying, I can do fancy" I don't normally want to pay a lot of money for a high quality restaurant, but if I don't have to pay, then I would be interested in going to a fancy restaurant.
"I can/could do..." is a way to say, I would like to go to a fancy restaurant.
what would you like to eat later?
I could do Italian.
I could do something quick.
means I'm interested in Italian or eating something quick
hope that helps!
0:19 ok, think i could get it. Thanks a lot
😊
❤❤❤❤
🥰🥰🥰
HERE WE LEARN THE CULTURE BEFORE THE LANGUAGE 😍😍😘
Thanks so much - we're really glad you like the format and our videos!
hi what is the meaning overwhelmed ?
"Overwhelmed" is when you feel stressed or confused because there are so many many things.
Maybe if you have a lot of tasks to do at work, you can feel overwhelmed.
Maybe if you have to do a lot of chores and cleaning at home, you can feel overwhelmed.
Or if you visit a big city with lots of taxis, people, bikes, noise, traffic, sellers - you can feel overwhelmed.
Hope that helps!
I'm from Somalia 🇸🇴 I want to learn english I hope you will help me
Thank you for being here with us! We're glad you are here :)
I really appreciate your project to have both teachers from the US and the UK at the same time the same topic, to have cultural and grammatical comparison. Great! And really unic. I wish you a lot of success a lot of stength. Thanks a lot.
