    Isolating is a necessary measure in the current situation. People understood it already in ancient times. But I would confess that for modern society it can be very hard because of a high level of socialization. It can be a real challenge for us. I hope that we transcend this hard time and do all our best to help and support each other. It is a strict lesson for us.

    LingoHack is my most favourite BBC program. Unfortunately, the episodes are no longer being aired on UA-cam. Though, they are available on internet. I wonder, what's gone wrong! I'm ever optimistic about the episodes being resumed sooner than later.

    As I'm not the native, I realized English is around us and my speaking skill is better than the past since I've try to listen British English accent. I enjoy my favourite topic througt your channel and have a change to learning English writing structure in various situation.
    Actully, I just realized recently. My boss asked my to translated into English and I didn't get struck expressing the word order, grammers, and so on. ;)

    In a crisis that reaches everywhere, even the remotest places could have lessons for us all. 00:19
    In Eyam in Derbyshire, the memory of lives lost centuries ago is motivating a response in the present.
    Derbyshire 더비셔 ((영국 중부의 주))
    lost 죽은
    These are the names of long-dead villagers who, 350 years ago, became infected with plague and sealed themselves off to stop the disease spreading.
    seal off 봉인을 하다
    260 villagers died.
    It was the rector, William Mompesson, who inspired his people to isolate and save others.
    rector 교구목사
    Today, the rector of Eyam is himself in quarantine, as his wife has symptoms of coronavirus.
    quarantine (전염병 확산을 막기 위한 동물사람의) 격리
    Are you awed or inspired by the example of your predecessor, centuries ago? Often when I walked through church and seen his name on the rectors' board, I thought 'I wonder what would happen if it happened today and how I would measure up?' and I guess I'm finding that one out now.
    awe 온통 경외심을 갖게 하다
    measure up 기대에 미치다
    Reverend Gillbert relies on social media to direct the parish response.
    direct 지휘하다, 총괄하다
    parish (교회·성당의) 교구
    Already, we've had lovely acts of kindness of people collecting things, with people supporting.
    Next door in the village school, the headmistress is preparing to send most children home.
    headmistrees [영] (초·중학교의) 여교장
    Eyam school will stay open for the children of key workers in the health and emergency services.
    It is in the nature of this close-knit place that many children have grandparents who either live with them or nearby.
    in the nature of sth ~와 비슷한; ~와 같은 종류[스타일]로
    close-knit 긴밀히 맺어진, 굳게 단결된
    The village committee is now visiting the elderly - like ninety-five-year-old widow Sheila Vipan.
    In World War Two, Sheila was evacuated away from her parents for four years.
    evacuate (위험 지역에서 사람들을) 대피[소개(疏開)]시키다
    She's known this nation's darkest hours.
    That's right. I've got to be a bit careful, at 95. Try and do things that help one to smile or to laugh even. I've just fed the birds. Yes, I must keep them happy.
    Here, they're determined not just to endure this crisis, but, with humanity, to transcend it.
    transcend 초월하다
