yes look I'm here again I know a lot of
people weren't sure you were wondering
whether or not I was going to appear
today well here is the answer to your
question hi everybody welcome here we go
again it's Friday it's a brand new month
power to the people and let's all dance
around the Maypole it's May the 1st and
this is English addict coming to you
live from the birthplace of English
which just happens to be England
greetings to the proletariat nice to see
you today hi everybody this is mr.
Duncan in England how are you today
are you ok I hope so are you happy I
really really hope you are happy today
I am quite happy for two reasons
first of all we have finally said
goodbye to April I can't begin to tell
you how much I have hated the month of
April it was a really stinky month don't
you think so can you think of another
word another adjectives that you can use
to describe April how would you describe
the month of April how would you
describe it what adjectives would you
use mine is stinky I don't know why I
think stinky it was a really stinky
month it was unpleasant to say the least
so one word one English word which
English word would you use to describe
April because April has gone now we can
talk about her all we want we can talk
all about April if you want to but how
would you describe April would you say
April was a good month mr. Duncan are
you crazy of course it wasn't what would
you say it was a bad month
what would you say hello to everyone
today and of course it is May the first
not only that it's Friday
believe it
echo echo I'm talking in my echo my echo
chamber hello hi are you okay it's
Friday we have made it once again to the
end of the week and what a week it has
been for the past few weeks I've been
with you live every day April has gone
we have said goodbye to the month of
April however how would you describe
April boring oh that's a good one
Thank You Kaelyn boring April was a
boring man because there was very little
to do many people had to stay indoors
what about oh I see
strange yes Thank You Mika strange I
suppose you could describe April as a
strange month the month of April was
very strange indeed
Sandrine says April was freaky
April was freaky
I think so I would agree with you there
hello mo said April was so so so so not
a Greek month
Chandran or Shan Dan also says strange
it was a very strange month
Zorin says crappy oh yes that is a very
strong word if something is crappy it
means it wasn't very good
so something that isn't very good
something that you didn't enjoy maybe
something that you think isn't a good
thing we can describe as crappy it was a
crappy month the word crap by the way is
a very rude word in British English it
means poop I was really hoping to get
through today's lesson without saying
poop unfortunately there it was there it
was crappy hmm I think so it was a very
crappy month the month of April talking
at the live chat I suppose I should also
say hello to everyone on the live chat
anyway hello to everyone on the live
chat anyway flower
oh hello flower Espoir you guess what
you were first on today's live chat
amazing amazing amazing it really was
Thank You flower Vitas you were second
today hmm
your finger I think is becoming very
tired because it would appear that you
can't click it very quickly these days
maybe you have worn your finger out it
has become useless because of all of the
clicking also flower thank you very much
you have a very fast finger you have the
fastest finger in the world maybe no sin
says hello mog mog hello mog mog nice to
see you back again haven't seen you for
a while I haven't seen you for a while
hello also Anna peeker
thank you for your little wave and also
your beautiful rainbow as well of course
that has become the symbol of hope for
the future during the past few weeks
hello also franceska kaylynn and also
Peter hello Peter
nice to see you again sujin is here de
Vaca or de Vaca is here I can't hear you
it's okay yes I hope you can hear me now
maybe I should go to my window and shout
but I think that might annoy the
neighbors to be honest
Beatriz says hi mr. Duncan happy workers
day power to the people
that's what they say isn't it yes you
are right
may is here it is the 1st of May and for
many people the 1st of May is quite an
important period so the 1st of May is an
important day for many people here in
the UK
we are talking about May as well but
many people think of May the first as
yes as I said just for the workers we
often think of May Day as being the day
for the workers all the workers will
rise and they will get their rights
International Workers day so hello to
all of the workers around the world if
you are working at the moment or maybe
you have been furloughed in your job
which means you can't do it at the
moment it is International Workers day
that is what it is
also today it is something else as well
it is BHEL tain can you see that word
baile tain or Beltane it is the start of
summer in the Celtic calendar because
the Celtic calendar today it would be
the 21st of March so in the Celtic
calendar it is officially the start of
summer in the Celtic calendar and of
course here in the UK there are many
traditions that would take place in the
past we would have lots of fair maidens
there they are
dancing around the very phallic maypole
and may the first is often celebrated as
a way of wishing that the forthcoming
harvest will be fruitful it is all about
fertility and that is the reason why all
of the fair maidens dance around the
Maypole at the beginning of May it is
something that hopefully will bring lots
of good fortune for the farmers their
crops will grow their animals will stay
strong and all the fair maidens
we'll find a handsome man I think I just
made that last part up to that that that
last part isn't real I made it up
although come to think of it it might
actually be true Mayday I'm not calling
Mayday by the way for those who were
wondering so I'm not calling Mayday
because you will call Mayday
if you have a problem if you are in
trouble or danger maybe if you are
flying an aeroplane and suddenly you
have engine trouble like Harrison Ford
did did you see
Harrison Ford once again I think between
you and me I think Harrison Ford
when he's flying his aeroplane I think
that he's imagining himself in the
Millennium Falcon that's what I think so
he flies it like he flew the Millennium
Falcon in Star Wars so that's why he's
always having problems with his plane
because I think he he thinks he thinks
is doing the Kessel run that's what I
think so this week Harrison Ford got
into trouble he flew over a very busy
runway at an airport and another plane I
believe was trying to take off or land
as Harrison Ford went across in his
airplane or as he calls it his
Millennium Falcon so I think so
naughty Harrison Ford not naughty
Harrison Ford oh if he was here now I
would put him over my knee and I'd spank
his bottom until it was cherry red I
really would what thanks for joining me
today if you're wondering what on earth
this is this is my new show it's called
how long will it take for YouTube to
start disconnecting my livestream like
yesterday did you see yesterday I don't
know what was happening but YouTube
cutting off my connection very annoying
fortunately YouTube being very clever
managed to produce the whole livestream
so you can watch yesterday's livestream
complete you can hello to Connell hi
Connell nice to see you here as well it
is May the 1st it is when the a common
man rises up and says look we want our
rights if you wanted to work for Oh for
you we have to have our rights
hello also to Francesca
maybe this environment has affected your
behavior so smooth I don't know what you
mean I'm not sure what you mean by that
I'm intrigued mr. Duncan I would like to
congratulate you on the first of May I
wish you to be healthy and wealthy well
I am one of those things no not the
second one I'm not the second one maybe
the first one I am but the second one
definitely not I hope you will stay
strong and live long me too as the
vulcans used to say live long and
prosper I think so and look what
happened to mr. Spock hello Chandon good
evening sir good evening to you as well
nice to see you here your magnolia tree
is spectacular thank you we also have
some big trees of magnolias with some
different flowers you can have white
magnolias you can also have pink
magnolias
so the magnolias in my garden is pink
magna well actually purple it's sort of
purple purple pink
I know we had an argument the other week
didn't we about my tie because some
people said that my tie is pink and some
people said that it's purple so here are
some lovely magnolia leaves and also
some lovely flowers on my magnolia tree
Oh
also as we saw yesterday we also have my
apple blossom as you can see it's very
windy today outside it is blowing a gale
outside at the moment so there is my
lovely apple blossom coming out as well
I must say this year my apple tree is
looking rather healthy I don't know how
it's happened but last year
my poor apple tree looked really unwell
it didn't look very well at all but now
it looks very healthy and there is lots
and lots of apple blossom growing on my
apple tree at the moment so who knows we
might have lots of nice apples growing
on the apple tree this year Palmyra
hello also petrol hello Pedro Pedro at
the moment by the way he has so I hope
you're wearing your mask Pedro I hope
you are feeling alright I can't complain
says Pedro that's good that's the spirit
that's the attitude that will get you
through any adversity whatever goes
wrong in your life keep that attitude
and you'll be alright
hello Valentin hello also franceska mr.
Duncan I was referring to all of your
trees and bushes and flowers I think I
would be more relaxed in that
environment rather than the city oh I
see what you mean there is no
thing like being in the countryside as I
often say I love the countryside very
much if I had a choice would I rather
live in the city or the countryside I
was I would always choose the
countryside every time no doubt about it
hello Hugo Hugo Hernandez hello to you
nice to see you again
Belarusian hello Belarusian the live
stream is at 10 a.m. here in Argentina
and it is time to do a lot of things
soon I will be cooking you know I won't
be able to resist asking what are you
cooking today is it something nice we
will be cooking something later on every
Friday this is something that has become
traditional in this house not
necessarily your house but this house we
have a tradition every Friday we like to
have curry every Friday night so I will
be showing one of my earlier video
recordings that I did with mr. Steve in
the kitchen because every Friday we
always have curry in fact I have no
choice to be honest
Steve says having curry tonight and
that's it I have no say I have no say in
the matter which means I can't make a
decision myself I can't say what I think
I have to have curry terrible hello I
rank sour hello to you in the all die by
region in the Basque Country there is a
live connection at five o'clock English
time with The Awl
or die by bird center and it is a great
living museum of nature
I like the sound of that so that is
actually five o'clock today British time
I'm going to check that I'm going to
have a look at that I don't know if
you've noticed but on YouTube there are
lots of live streams lots of nature live
streams on YouTube as well and some of
them are fantastic I remember about
three years ago there was a web camera
and it was following the the lives of a
group of giraffes who remembers that and
there was a little giraffe that was born
and this tiny giraffe was walking around
it was trying to walk on its little thin
legs it was the cutest thing I've ever
seen
hello - mirela pink Magnolia is male
white Magnolia is female and smells
smells wonderful I must be honest with
you
the pink Magnolia or purple doesn't have
any smell at all it doesn't have any
fragrance which I was surprised by
however my lovely lovely lilac has a
wonderful scent so I also have a lilac
tree in the garden and to be honest with
you a few moments ago I opened my window
here in the studio and the first thing I
could smell was lilac I could smell the
lilac tree which is around the front of
the garden very far away from my studio
so the scent the smell the aroma from my
lovely lilac tree is actually going all
the way around the house in the wind
it's great I'm really enjoying it hello
- Pete Petra
hello we'll also 2ts
Blue Thunder hello blue Thunder where
are you guess what guys I'm now at the
hospital because of a car crash my leg
was slightly broke goodness me what is
happening at the moment with my viewers
could you all please stay safe I hope
you are all right blue thunder you win
car I believe your real name is Sol
Thank You blue thunder for letting me
know that you are also having difficulty
at the moment but something quite
different from Pedro so I hope you are
all right please keep in touch let us
know how your leg is feeling so who else
was in the car was anyone else injured
is everyone else all right
shocking quite shocking hello
Adarsh hello mr. Duncan I have been
trying so hard but my English is not
improving often I lack confidence while
speaking and end up an articulated could
you help well this is something I've
mentioned before speaking is the hardest
part of learning any language it really
is I know I say this very often but
speaking is the hardest part you can
learn the words you can remember the
words you can read the words you can
understand English but when it comes to
speaking as I said before it is a little
bit like performing it is a little bit
like going on to the stage to give a
performance so all you have to do is do
it more you have to become accustomed to
speaking English because for all of your
life you've been speaking another
language and now suddenly you have to do
this it's different and maybe you feel a
little shy doing it in front of other
people but I always suggest that you
should record your voice so try to make
a recording listen to the sound of
voice as you speak you have to love what
you do whatever it is and speaking
English is no exception so confidence
comes from doing something again and
again and again the more you do it the
easier it becomes and the easier it
becomes
the more you want to do it it's as
simple as that
hello - alle pika hello Anna pika I have
read an interesting news article this
morning it seems that people affected by
will have antibodies that will protect
them well some people are not sure at
the moment there seems to be conflicting
reports about whether a person will then
be protected after they have had the
thing that I can't mention hello pal
Mira mr. Duncan I wrote about a new
British hero who raised money to help
the hospitals yes that that was that is
true I always call him major tarma
because I always think of the David
Bowie song but yes he has been raising
money he was a hundred yesterday a
hundred years old it is a sad fact
though it is sad that someone has to
raise money to actually support
something that we are actually already
paying for in this country so it is a
strange thing the National Health
Service is the service in the UK that
provides free health care but we all pay
for it
through our taxes so through our tax we
pay towards it but over the years
unfortunately the National Health
Service has become more overrun with
people becoming ill having sickness
and there is always a shortage of
doctors nurses and also beds in the
hospitals so it is a sad thing it is a
sad fact that someone has to raise money
to support something that has been there
for many many years
some people feel rather annoyed about it
to be honest
hello Adrian mr. Duncan what do you mean
with curry as a cooked dish you eat each
Friday is it chicken with rice for
instance what mr. Steve makes every
Friday is actually fish it is a fish
curry so quite often he will put fish in
the curry and we will have spicy curry
with rice always brown rice very nice
brown rice I like it very much so that's
what we're having every Friday and in a
few moments we are going to take a look
at one such night every Friday we always
have curry today also we're going to
have a look at some strange English
words strange words in the English
that's what we're doing later hello
everyone I didn't have the notification
on time again
sorry Noemi I did send out the
notification and also I did put a
message on my little message board on
Facebook and also on my youtube channel
however this is a problem that's been
going on for a very long time I tell
people that I will be on unfortunately
many people don't realize I am on
because they don't get notified
unfortunately
hello also franceska hello - oh I see
Devo Devo chat or Java
hello mr. Duncan I'm a teenager from
Russian how can I support my English
level during the lockdown well one of
the ways of doing it of course is
watching English movies with captions
you can watch my live streams you can
watch all sorts of video lessons not
only from myself but other people as
well but I'm live with you here on
YouTube and it is a good way of
listening and learning English because
it is spontaneous this is live right now
so at the moment it is 23 minutes away
from 3 o'clock in the afternoon on a
Friday afternoon in fact hello Frances
hello also ts nice to see you here as
well so many people are here mr. Duncan
when do you think you will be able to go
back into your garden asks Anna the
weather at the moment is very strange
we've had a lot of rain today I will
just show you outside you might be able
to see outside at the moment it is
actually quite sunny so the sun is
shining on my apple blossom it is also
shining on my Magnolia however this
morning it was also very dull and cloudy
it looked as if it was going to rain so
at the moment here in the UK the weather
is very unsettled
I am hoping maybe next week to go into
the garden again at the moment it is not
looking good because the weather is
changing so often at the moment so often
I hope that answers your question
Oh Luis Luis Mendez is here again guess
what we are going to have a look around
Paris in a short while as well it is a
year since I went to Paris can you
believe it
a year since I went to Paris so we are
going to look at a video clip a little
bit later on of me in Paris also would
you like to see a little bit of nature
with mr. Steve here we go
very close to our house there is one of
our neighbors and they have horses and I
remember last year when mr. Steve and
myself we were going for a walk and we
came across our neighbors horses and
they are so lovely
you
you
so cute some lovely horses in my
neighbor's field
oh isn't that nice I know yesterday we
were talking a lot about nature and we
were talking about birds and at the
moment the birds are going crazy outside
building their nests some of them have
already got little chicks to take care
of so a lot going on at the moment hello
- Grazyna hello Grazyna nice to see you
here today
Noemi I am happy because the gardener
has cut the grass we have been going on
for two months without the grass being
cut and we've had a lot of rain so I
imagine the grass will grow very quickly
if you have lots of rain and it looked
like the jungle I imagine it did
fortunately he has started to work again
so Noemi it looks as if you have your
gardener back after crazy April so now
it's come to an end and a pika Steve is
a very horse friendly man or he is very
horse friendly that means he gets along
with horses and animals I don't know why
but both of us both myself and Steve we
always get along with animals quite well
we do I don't know why but we do would
you like to come with me on a little
trip we are going to take a trip to a
place that isn't very far away from this
country we are going to hop across the
English Channel we are going across to
France to have a little tour around one
of the most romantic cities in the world
Paris
oh I really love that so there it was
some shots taken last year during my
trip to Paris with mr. Steve we had a
free holiday exactly one year ago can
you believe it
interesting ah Bonjour Madame Monsieur
Jim Appel Missa danke
hello there Lala nice to see you here
today I am wearing my my little red
beret I hope you are enjoying my fashion
style today very nice mm hello to the
live chat nice to see you all here as
well
Paris is love where we think of Paris we
often think of romance we think of
sitting maybe in a lovely cafe looking
out across the Paris skyline and in the
distance twinkling in the night sky the
Eiffel Tower and everything is very
lovely so we had a lovely time last year
in Paris thank you very much to mr.
Steeves company because they gave it to
us they gave us a free holiday in Paris
last year and I still can't believe it
didn't cost us anything
quite amazing mr. Duncan at the moment
Paris is dead what a pity it is a large
prison I would imagine it is so I
thought it would be nice to have a
little look at a time a period of time
when things were different we might even
have a little trip along the Seine later
on would you like to do that but right
now we are going to take a look at
something that has become quite a
tradition over the past two or three
years in this house every Friday night
we will make our traditional Friday
night meal it is our lovely delicious
spicy curry night
oh hello there welcome to my kitchen it
is now Friday night and I am busy here
preparing my special Friday night treat
mr. Steve will be coming down soon to
help me but for now I am here by myself
and can you see what I'm doing I'm
peeling some potatoes we need to have
some potatoes peeled peel it's a very
interesting word the word peel can
actually be used in many ways for
example peel can mean to remove some
things slowly for example you peel the
skin from a potato you peel the potato
also peel can be described as removing
your clothes slowly so again it is
something you are taking off very slowly
so you peel your clothes off
also the word peel can mean to wring the
dean a bell the sound of a bell ringing
can be described as peel and of course
the thing that you remove from the
potato can also be called peel so the
word peel can be used in many many
different ways so as I mentioned we are
having curry tonight
ah yes every Friday night mr. Steve and
myself we always have a delicious curry
so mr. Steve will be joining me very
soon here in the kitchen and between you
and me he will be doing all of the hard
work all I have to do is peel these
potatoes I think some of these potatoes
have actually become a little bit rotten
so I'm gonna have to be very careful
or peeling these potatoes I have to make
sure that all of the rotten parts are
removed because of course no one wants
to eat rotten potatoes of course not mr.
Steve will be joining me a little bit
later on the live stream and also here
in the kitchen because mr. Steve will be
cooking for curry so all I'm doing for
now is preparing the meal preparing the
potatoes but to be honest with you mr.
Steve will be doing most of the work we
will wait for a few moments for mr.
Steve to come down the stairs and join
me here in the kitchen so as you can see
mr. Steve has now joined me in the
kitchen so what are we eating tonight
mr. Steve curry having a curry tonight
so I've got everything that I need laid
out here and it's a strange curry this
because it's my own sort of concoction
there's a word concoction and caption
and it's mr. Steve's special mixture
special recipe it's a bit of this a bit
of that so I'm starting off with some
red split lentils there we go she's not
being as close to the camera lentils
because I like mint wasn't a curry and
the good oh yes lentils are very good
for you so this particular curry is
going to be a fish curry and also with
the lentils as well and what style of
curry is it Steve so this is a
particular style of curry okay
these take about
mr. cook must say we are enjoying the
banging so banging away in the kitchen
so I'll just put this onto the stove or
the cooker and we'll get that cooking so
I'm going over here so how long do we
have to cook the lentils for how long do
they take Steve right the lentils take
about 20 minutes which is what I just
said oh right so this is what we're
having we're having buna style curry if
you can give it a bit more
buna buna style which is in the thing of
it the thing I love about this Steve is
that this this tastes is good as a curry
that you would have in a restaurant so
if you went to a restaurant and had had
a buna it would taste as good as this
stuff in the jar we're not being
sponsored by the way just in case you
think we're being sponsored by this
company we're not loitering but should
you wish to contact a Zenda and ask her
to sponsor and we would be very happily
do so because yes just in case Loyd
Grossman is watching and you would like
to sponsor my English lessons please
please get in touch thank you very much
let's give him another plug because
there's lots of other flavours that was
the buna which is essentially a very
curry based around onions and tomatoes
onions and tomatoes well I think there's
all Curry's about onions in heaven over
that one got a lot of tomatoes in we
could also have a Rogan Josh there we go
a Rogan Josh which tomatoes and fried
onions with ginger and coriander Oh
delicious I must admit there's one thing
I love about curries it's when it has
lots of ginger in it not many people
like ginger some people hate ginger and
what's the other one Steve the other one
is the old favorite
tikka masala you know if you're not keen
on a strong curry that's the one to have
tikka masala so that's quite a mild one
quite a mild one with with lots of cream
and the yogurt in it so it's a bit more
fattening than your average calorie so
that particular one isn't very healthy
now I bought these they were on offer
today really yes they're normally around
2 pounds 20 a jar okay but they were on
offer today for a pound a pound each so
I got a a dozen of them 12 of them today
so keep them in there and so you know
saving a lot of money I tell you what
they used to do there's only I'm being
very pedantic here pedantic there's
another word but antique means very
picky a person who picks the fine
details all the faults out of everything
when they first brought these curries
out years ago they used to have 425
grams per jar and then they shrunk the
jars down and charge the same price
happens a lot nowadays you know you know
the same thing happens to chocolate bars
as well they keep making chocolate bars
or boxes of chocolates smaller and
smaller and every time they do that they
don't reduce the price so they make the
product smaller but they don't lower the
price they charge exactly the same thing
it really annoys me yes and the problem
is that's not quite enough for - the jar
isn't quite big enough for two rows
previously it was so I have to bulk it
out with some lentils I had a bit more
of my own curry powder into it and well
you'll see what else I add in to turn
this from what is what they're already
very good that I add some extras to it
to spice it up even more so mr. Steve
uses this particular mix but also he
adds his own little magic ingredients as
well right I'm gonna keep my eye eye on
those lentils but
they boil over very easily I've just
realized I'm starting to sound like Loyd
Grossman this is how Loyd Grossman
taught
hello my name is Loyd Grossman I don't
think anyone will know I don't think
anyone will know who lured Grossman is
but anyway he used to be on television
all the time but nowadays he nowadays he
is a celebrity ship ok so while that
lentils are cooking I'm going to prepare
some other things so mr. Steve has just
rinsed the rice we really do like sweet
potatoes home just one just one oh yes
the lentils are very prone to boiling
over the lentil so I shall just peel
this service sweet potato like so and I
like to cook the sweet potatoes in with
the rice rather than cooking them
separately because then you'll retain a
lot of the goodness that comes out of it
and it saves a saucepan retain I love
that word retain if you retain something
you keep it back you keep it back you
preserve it you retain those in with the
rice like that and there we go oh yes
there we go
and so that in with the rice and I'll
put those on for a slow cook
and I'm also going to educate with
little rubbish here I'm gonna put some
extra tomatoes in well but I'm also
going to rinse the tomatoes to get rid
of the pesticides which you might think
sounded strange this is something that
Steve does a lot actually he does it all
the time so this is something Steve does
he always he rinses everything and I
mean everything in vinegar even his
strawberries when he has strawberries he
even does does it with the strawberries
so he puts the strawberries on vinegar
because he he thinks it will get rid of
all the horrible additives and
pesticides that are on the vegetables
and also on the fruit it does this is a
mixture of water vinegar and salt and
then I just five minutes soak any fruit
or vegetable well not all fruit and
vegetables but ones that I think are
going to be prone to collecting the
pesticides and like strawberries things
like that strawberries and I like to
wash tomatoes strawberries and do do it
with blackberries Steve yes fruit any
any fruit that could have been sprayed
so most fruit most fruit I don't bother
with if it's not organic if it's organic
then I don't bother but if it's not
organic I will always rinse it just in
case there are a few pesticides lurking
on the outside you might notice here by
the way that these potatoes these sweet
potatoes are organic can you see on
there can you see they are actually
organic sweet potatoes so with the rice
and so was
who are the lentils now let's see how
the lentils are doing because they need
a stir I've got the wooden spoon I'm
gonna give them a stir so I'm going over
here right so the lentils nicely cooked
so next stage is to add the curry sauce
boom no we're going store that in yeah
swing it out with a bit of water because
just to get all the lovely juice out of
there quick stir I'm slaving away in the
kitchen slaving away it's an expression
often used to describe someone who's
working hard in the kitchen some garlic
granules cuz I can't be bothered to buy
fresh garlic and cut it up that is
better but this is a substitute so I'll
add some garlic granules I will add the
fish so I've got mackerel in spring
water which I've drained and I'm going
to add those in now if there's some I'll
say one thing Steve it's very fishy
the smell macro is one of the smelliest
fish it's very smelly but in that curry
it's very nice and it's very healthy
because it's got lots of healthy fats in
it mackerel and we've got a small tin in
there so we've got some protein mmm and
I shall bring that to the boil I will
add my tomatoes which are now happily
devoid of pesticides
d'void
that's a great word if something is
devoid it is it is without it is without
it it is devoid there's already a lot of
tomatoes in this curry sauce but I like
to add some fresh tomatoes as well just
for a bit of added flavor so we can
leave that to cook but when it's come to
the boil and just before we serve it I
won't have this as a final addition and
it's my favorite it's garam masala we
saw that earlier earlier earlier we were
talking all about Somozas Somozas at the
start of today's livestream we talked
about some Moses and I said that mr.
Steve likes to put that in his baked
beans I add this to everything it's
absolutely delicious it's aromatic spicy
it's not it's not strong in the sense
that it's it's hot it's just very
flavoursome so you can add this to
everything oh I just love the smell of
it so I'm gonna add that in in about 5
minutes
time for those who
just joined us hello this is mr. Steve
and mr. Duncan on a Friday night but for
those who are worried that this is not a
live stream don't worry it is we will be
back live in a few moments but at the
moment we are cooking curry if you just
want to cook some fish and give it a
little bit of flavor you can just
sprinkle this on to fish to meat to
anything just to give it a bit of a bit
of an Indian sort of curry flavor but
without making it too hot I love it
and it's lovely in baked beans that is
one of the problems with curry because
some people don't like it too spicy but
they do like the flavor and the aroma of
the spices but they don't want it too
hot they don't want the curry to burn
their mouth out yes and what makes a
curried hot of course is the chili and
that's what makes it very hot whereas
this is everything but it doesn't have
the chili in it so it gives you the
flavor without the heat spice so I'm
ready to add the garam masala now
because this is all cooked the fish is
already cooked anyway the lentils are
cooked so I'm going to add this in I
need a teaspoon as we said earlier
mister
here we go here comes the garam masala
only a teaspoon because otherwise you
can't taste anything else oh all the
smell coming off there absolutely my
mouth is watering at the prospect of
eating this lentil fish curry and as I
speak the rice is coming to the boil and
we've got the sweet potatoes in there as
well cooking with them so that's coming
to the boil so I think that's about it
we're nearly ready to eat now give it
ten minutes oh no I'm gonna go ahead and
do the exercise mr. Steve is going
upstairs he almost forgot there did you
see that he forgot that he had to go and
do his exercises upstairs don't worry
you won't see that right bye for now I'm
back in the studio or are you gonna film
is eating this we'll just carry on shall
we so we will be back in a moment at the
dinner table so we will actually be
sitting at the dining table ready to eat
the meal right now through the wonders
of modern editing so there it is
our Friday night curry is ready to eat
and now we will return you back to the
studio
no mr. Steve that's my potato
oh I must be honest gonna be honest I
have to be honest with you that has made
me very hungry watching Steve prepare
that curry has really got my juices
flowing my mouth is now watering and
that is what we are having tonight we
are having that exact meal tonight I
hope you enjoyed that something a little
different I know a lot of people loved
watching mr. Steve in the kitchen he is
a master of cookery I think so he's
amazing he has so many abilities as we
were talking about yesterday I think it
might be safe to say that Steve is
multi-talented multi-talented I think so
thank you very much for your lovely
comments as well I was able to speak to
you through the live chat as well as we
were all watching that together
including me all I can say now is I feel
hungry I really do I really want to eat
I want to eat that curry to be honest
unfortunately I have to wait for a
little bit longer there were some
interesting words as well in that video
mr. Steve was mentioning a lot of words
and I did explain some of them in the
live chat so I hope that was helpful to
you as well we are going to look at some
strange English words in a few moments
but a couple of things I want to show
you I have been asked mr. Duncan can you
tell us where in the UK you are
whereabouts actually are you so I'm
going to show you now where I am
on the map so here you can see a little
map and I will also bring up on the
screen my pointer ah so now I can show
you exactly where I am dude you do so
that is where I am in the UK that is my
location in that area it is much Wenlock
in Shropshire and over here this area
here is Wales
this is Wales a beautiful country a
beautiful place very scenic and there
are lots of lovely places to visit by
the sea as well so we have Wales here
then we have England England is quite a
large area so all of this all of this
right up to here is England down here we
have London so London is way down here
and I am up there so now you can see how
far away I am from London
I'm around a hundred and around a
hundred and sixty miles away from London
so you can see there is quite a distance
between us and down here we have
Cornwall again Cornwall is a beautiful
County there are many lovely places
around this part of the world over here
there is a place called hope Cove and
Hope Cove is a place that we visited in
one of our English lessons we actually
went to a place called hope Cove so
there you can see exactly where I am in
the UK for those who keep asking mr.
Duncan where are you can you show us the
map now you know I am walk right up
there so I am inland when we say inland
it means you are not by the sea you are
far away from
the land and up here for those who are
interested up here is Lake Verne we so
this is where you will find Lake Verne
way a place that I visited many times
over the years so I hope that was useful
to you I'd like to show you things that
are different sometimes and today is no
exception
it is absolutely no exception whatsoever
so now you know where I am in the UK for
those who have been asking now you know
Brighton hello Anna
Brighton is Brighton a beautiful place
to visit it is by the seaside lots of
fresh air lots of seagulls flying over
your head lots of delicious food lots of
nice tasty things to sample in Brighton
definitely are we still talking about
food I'm not sure I'm not sure hello
tomorrow they say a talented person is
talented at everything I'm not sure
about that I don't think I really have
any talents
I think mr. Steve is more talented than
me he can sing he can remember lots of
scripts he has a very good memory he can
retain things very easily in his memory
so sometimes I feel slightly jealous of
Steve because he can retain a lot of
information very quickly unfortunately
I'm not very good at that I'm not good
at remembering lots and lots of words or
scripts so if I had to appear in a play
I would be hopeless because I would
never be able to remember all of the
words all of the script that I would
have to use on the stage I wouldn't be
able to do it I'm afraid
shall we go back to France we were in
France just now and we are going to take
another
look this time we are going for a little
sale along the River Seine
OhLaLa very nice and there it was some
scenes from my trip to Paris last year I
hope you enjoyed that something a little
different today we are showing a lot of
things today
have you noticed would you like to go
inside a bird's nest right now I was
talking all about nature yesterday and
in my garden there are many birds
building nests and it reminded me of the
time when I had some birds nesting in
one of my little bird boxes and guess
what I was also able to record the
action all of the things going on inside
the bird box so this is something that I
recorded when I was living in my
previous house I actually set up a web
camera and also I was able to monitor
what was going on and there you can see
there is a bird actually building its
nest so on the screen now you can see
the bird is actually putting some of
well you have grass and you have lots of
things including moss as well things
that are commonly found in the average
garden such as grass and moss and that
particular bird is building its nest
inside the bird box so this is something
I was very pleased about because I was
able to actually record it would you
like to have a look at the chicks so
we've had a look at the mother and now
we are going to have a look at the
chicks inside the nest so this is a
little bit later on after a 2 or 3 weeks
you can see the chicks have been born
they've hatched out and there they are
getting ready to accept some more food
from the parent so look at that that is
an actual shot filmed in my previous
garden that I used to have before I
moved here
and you can see there are lots of little
birds these are actually baby blue tits
they are actually baby blue tits and at
the moment there are many nests around
the area where I live
they are all over the place all over the
place there are nests everywhere so I
hope you enjoyed that something a little
unusual again I am showing you some
unusual things today don't you think I
think so as well
latina says I like the way you say Oh
Lala
French people are usually who use Ola
ooh la la when something wrong has
happened oh I see I don't know why I
always feel excited if I feel excited I
always think of something surprising
something delightful but apparently
French people usually use it when
something horrible has happened or if
they are shocked about something we will
see you are very keen on birds mr.
Duncan that is true I can't I can't lie
I do like nature very much Ernesto is
the first day of May the Labor Day also
in the UK to be honest with you we don't
really observe Labor Day here we do have
a labor movement one of our main
political parties is actually the Labour
Party so they are the opposite of the
Conservatives so we have the Labour
Party and their origins stem from I want
to say left-wing ideology and we'll
leave it at that okay we will leave it
at that I don't want to get too deep
into politics to be honest with you but
yes we do certain people do observe
Labor Day not everyone so here in the UK
we also have
our traditions with the arrival of
summer and many people believe that if
they wish if they celebrate in certain
ways then their crops and their animals
will be healthy and there will be lots
of food for everyone to eat as the year
goes on so we often have lots of
ceremonies or lots of festivals however
this year as you can imagine there are
non we are having no festivals this year
many people normally wake up very early
on this day and they observe the rise of
the Sun and made the first because the
Celtic summer begins today on May the
1st I hope you understood that because I
almost did I almost understood it oh I
see Lewis says you are right you can
also say oh la la if you are excited I
think so as you can imagine I use that
word a lot lights mr. Steve with some
food la la I like it I always feel like
going along to the to the - one of the
lekars lefel or something like that and
watching the ladies lifting their legs
up very high as they do the can-can
something like that do you like the sea
mr. Duncan because I know that you can't
swim that is true I can't swim I am very
good at drowning III I won an award at
school they gave me a special award for
drowning it was a huge brick because
they said that I swam like a brick in
other words I would sink straight to the
bottom of the pool so I'm not very good
at swimming you are right however I do
like to be beside the cease
I do like to be beside the sea
definitely hello Christine how do you
make your fish curry well the video that
you just watched with me and mr. Steve
that is actually it that is us making
our mackerel curry even though to be
honest with you Steve does cheat a
little bit because he uses something
that he buys in a jar you see mm-hmm yes
mr. Duncan have you ever visited
Brittany and Normandy these are
beautiful regions
well Brittany can you believe it on my
father's side my family originated in
Brittany I am part French
I hope you don't mind but yes on my
father's side I do have a little bit of
French inside me I don't know what part
but I do have a little French inside me
not to be confused with a little
Frenchman hello to Francesca hello also
Lewis again Louis lives around 10
kilometers southwest of Paris but by the
Metro so if if Lewis uses the Metro he
can be at the Eiffel Tower in just 20
minutes that's amazing one of the things
I was impressed with when I was in Paris
was the Metro amazing the underground
system of trains the network of trains
underground in Paris I was really
impressed with it even though everyone
kept warning me to be careful they said
be careful if you are going to use the
Metro be careful everyone kept saying
that I don't know why but apparently
people often will will pick your pockets
they will steal things from your pockets
but we didn't see anything like that
nothing bad happened during our time in
Paris
in fact we had a wonderful time I really
enjoyed it very much
Thank You mr. Duncan for this nice
information you are welcome no problem I
thought now I think actually we will now
have a look at some more strange English
words we are going to look at some more
strange English words beyond right now
more strange English words it is true
that the English language is made up of
many words
some of them common some of them are
very familiar some of them are not so
familiar even though they are used quite
often so we are going to look at some
strange English words right now
the first English word we are going to
use is Steve have you ever heard of this
word the first word is Steve this can be
used as a noun or a verb
Steve can mean to keep something away so
if you want to keep something far away
from you you will push it away you will
prevent it from getting near you you
stave something also as a noun it is a
type of weapon it is a long pole quite
often used as a weapon it is often used
as a weapon also a long piece of wood
that goes upwards as well when you're
building a building a piece of wood that
goes up like that is also called a stave
Steve have you ever heard that word
before Steve Lewis says but pickpockets
are everywhere in all the great cities
you are right I'm not just saying in
Paris I'm just saying that's what people
kept telling me when I was there but to
be honest with you
I've never been to a city in my life
that didn't have crime taking place all
around me to be honest including London
London in fact might be worse than Paris
ah mr. Duncan I can't believe you said
that
I will get in trouble for that
definitely conundrum he's an interesting
word the word is conundrum conundrum
isn't that great I love that word there
it is
conundrum a conundrum is a type of
puzzle something that you have to think
about carefully to actually solve the
question or the puzzle is a conundrum
something that you have to think
carefully about a problem or a situation
that is not easy to solve it will
involve a lot of thinking that thing is
a conundrum
something that you have to work out it
can be something you have to say
something you have to work out
mathematics for example you can have a
conundrum something that you have to
work out in your head something you have
to spend time trying to work out
something you have to solve that make it
takes time is a conundrum here's another
one oh this is one of my favorite words
I'm sure I've used this word in the past
jibber-jabber
I like this word very much jibba jabba
jibber jabber jibber jabber - jibber
jabber is to talk endlessly you won't
stop talking
you jibber jabber you talk in an excited
way you won't stop talking oh I'm so
excited I'm so excited because across
the hills I can't stop talking about it
I can't stop talking
oh please I wish you wouldn't
jibber-jabber so much jibber-jabber
talk excitedly you are always talking
about something talking talking talking
talking talking like that it can be
rather annoying some people say that I
jibber-jabber I don't know what you mean
how dare you oh how dare you go on Greta
you tell them how dare you yes how dare
you say that I can't believe it
jibber-jabber talking a lot in an
excited way oh I like this one can you
read this word it's a great word this
one a very unusual a very strange word
it might look like a word that is hard
to pronounce the word is paraphernalia
can you say that again mr. Duncan
I will paraphernalia paraphernalia
paraphernalia things that you use to
perform a job or a task things that you
have around you that you need to perform
a certain action or something that you
need in your job the things that you
have around you that you used regularly
maybe you carry your paraphernalia
around in a small bag you have things
around you that you need to use lots of
items that are nearby for you to use
maybe in your job maybe something you
knew you need to perform a certain task
you have your paraphernalia
paraphernalia I love that word
paraphernalia and of course in the
middle you have those strange
occurrences there
Pera
pH so this part of the word is actually
pronounced like the letter F para fern
Elia paraphernalia great word I like it
and it says my wife always likes to
jibber-jabber a jibber-jabber my wife
she always likes to give each other
jibber jabber jabber jabber jabber
jabber jabber jabber jabber jabber
jabber jabber yes I know what you mean
I'm not saying anything else I'm not
saying anything else Rosa says 241
kilometers is roughly the distance
between London and where I live yes I
think so I think you're right it is
around 240 kilometers from where I live
to London paraphernalia I love that word
very much here's another one oh now this
is a thing this is a thing
so this names something Bracken Bracken
Bracken is a type of plant it is a type
of fern and you will often see it if you
are walking around an area of forest so
you will see the trees above you
climbing into the sky but normally
around you you'll have lots of Bracken
and this is what Bracken looks like so
there it is Bracken you will see it
often in movies when people are trying
to make their way through the jungle you
will often see people trying to to fight
their way through the Bracken Bracken I
love that word it's a great word so
Bracken is a type of green fern
something you often see in areas where
there are forests maybe a
jungle area here in the UK you will find
Bracken in many places including in the
area where I live there is Bracken
everywhere there is a lot of Bracken
especially near to where I live because
there are many trees many forests and
also many wild areas where the plants
are able to grow wild and free mmm
Bracken I like that word I like it a lot
stickler oh here's an interesting word
stickler stickler what is a stickler a
person who is very fussy a person who
likes to do things in the correct way
they always follow the rules they like
to do things in the right way they like
to do things in a very precise way the
correct way they are a person who is
very fussy about the way they do things
they are a stickler stickler so maybe
you have a boss who always insists that
you arrive at work on time you must
never be late so you might say that your
boss is a stickler for punctuality so
your boss is a stickler for punctuality
you must be at work on time because your
boss is a stickler for punctuality
so punctuality means arriving at the
right time you are not late you arrive
before or on time you must never be late
so a stickler is a person who is very
precise about the way they do things or
maybe the way they want other people to
do things you always follow the rules
mmm Anna Anna pika says I a bit of a
stickler hmm I think Steve might be as
well I sometimes say that Steve is a
stickler sometimes he likes to do things
in a very precise way not always not
always Steve could also be a little
careless sometimes but then again can't
we all can't we all here is another one
we are looking at strange words today
strange words here is another one
wrought wrought well I like this one
because it has lots of interesting uses
of letters there so you can see W R o u
g h t wrought wrought quite often if you
are having something created for you
maybe from iron or steel you will often
shape the steel or shape the metal you
will twist and Bend the thing you are
creating so wrought just means something
has been reshaped wrought you bend you
twist you turn you change the shape of
something that is straight wrought
quite often you might see are outside
someone's house you might see wrought
iron so what we are saying there is the
iron has been twisted and bent to create
a beautiful shape wrought I hope you
like that very much
wrote something wrought such as wrought
iron twisted bent the shape has been
changed
normally for decoration oh he's a big
one mr. Duncan that is a big one that is
a big word here's another one
another word wrought lil says wrought is
another difficult word to memorize
however if you write these words down as
you see them don't forget you can write
them down you can also watch this lesson
again so you can understand the words
more clearly so sometimes when you are
watching my videos maybe you don't
understand everything straight away
later you can later you can I'm just
distracted because I can see someone
walking their dog on my other camera
would you like to have a look here we go
so in the distance over there there is
someone actually walking their dog can
you see them in the center of the
picture I think it might be a farmer but
he's walking along and it looks as if he
has two dogs with him as well and that
is one of the local farmers that you are
looking at now he is actually one of the
local farmers that lives around here and
it looks as if he was taking his dogs
for a little walk it's not nice a slight
distraction there back to our strange
English words this word is related to
something I was watching earlier in fact
gastronomical gastronomical we use this
to describe anything that is related to
cooking or the preparation or cooking of
food gastronomical you might describe
something as delicious you might say
that it was a gastronomical delight a
gastronomical delight refers to
beautiful delicious food the opposite of
course is a gastronomical disaster that
means the food wasn't very nice so in
this sense we are using the word food
and cooking the way something tastes
anything related to cooking food
gastronomical gastronomical and you
might notice at the beginning of this
world gastro also relates to the stomach
as well eating and the stomach that's
very nice another word oh here's another
one this is an odd word however this
word has a very simple meaning so the
meaning of this word is actually quite
simple quite a basic word even though it
looks very strange the word is
juxtaposed juxtaposed the meaning is
side by side two things are next to each
other they are placed side by side maybe
you are comparing two things you are
putting them next to each other you
juxtapose those things you put them side
by side juxtaposed so that is an
interesting word and it means to put
something side by side you put two
things
next next to each other or to be nearby
those two things are nearby you
juxtapose those things hmm we are having
curry tonight the curry that you saw as
making in the kitchen that is the same
meal we are going to have tonight can
you believe it we are actually having
in fact mr. Steve insists I have no
choice mr. Steve he says we always have
curry on Friday nights so there you go
that's what we're having here's another
word this is a word that is very emotive
this is a word that some people feel
very strongly about in fact this word is
only really used by people who are
against a certain type of action to be
honest vivisection vivisection so this
is quite a dark word it means to
experiment or to do tests on living
creatures so if you are doing medical
tests if you are trying to find out if a
certain substance harms an animal before
it is used on human beings we call that
vivisection it is to act in a way that a
lot of people disagree with you test
products quite often wealth certainly
many years ago in the cosmetic industry
many companies used to test their
cosmetics on animals they used to put
the cosmetics into their eyes and they
would force them to eat these things
just to see what the effect was so you
had to test on animals that were alive
many people believe that this is a very
cruel way of doing it so people who are
against animal testing live animal
testing they refer to it as vivisection
vivisection vivisection just means live
autopsy you are cutting something open
that is still alive you are operating or
testing on something that is living not
a very nice thing and there are many
people who are against vivisection
fortunately nowadays there are
companies that don't do it they have
stopped carrying out vivisection oh my
goodness mr. Duncan what is that what
what is that word mr. Duncan hey I know
it's a strange word mr. Duncan but it's
also a big word this is a word if you've
ever seen a Disney movie have you ever
seen the Lion King The Lion King Akuma
let me just a cou man Matata is a lovely
word Hakuna Matata
it is often what I don't know I think I
need to lie down in a dark room I think
so so have you ever seen a Disney film
and you've seen the animals talking they
are almost like human beings so they
have many of the characteristics many of
the mannerisms that a human being would
have so you are changing an animal into
human form you are looking at something
in a different way quite often an animal
or maybe a type of bird anything you are
changing the form and also the
characteristic of an animal into
something else
Disney if you've ever seen the Lion King
that is a good example of animals having
human characteristics people who own
dogs they will also do this to their
animal and I'm going to show you the
word here it is and throw PO more more
thighs anthropomorphize anthropomorphize
anthropomorphize if you am prefer more
thigh something and throw more thighs it
means
you give an animal the characteristics
of a human being a person they have the
personality of a human being you are
transferring one thing to another animal
the way in which they behave or
communicate and you will see this quite
often with Disney films cartoons quite
often you will see the animal actually
talking and also behaving like a human
being and this is the process this is
what we call it and throw per morph eyes
you anthropomorphize it means you change
the characteristics of one animal to
another in this case we are talking
about animals talking like human beings
and also behaving like human beings
it is a hard word to say you are right
and throw per morph eyes and throw per
morph eyes so if you split the word up
into syllables it's not so hard and
throw PO morph eyes anthropomorphize
parrot is you are changing the
characteristics of one thing to another
I suppose you could say that the
Egyptians used to do that they used to
create sculptures and also carvings of
animals that appeared human so maybe
certain Egyptian gods they had the form
of an animal however they also had the
form of a human being they were changing
the formation of those two animals and
combining them together and for a perm
or thighs is what you are doing okay
from one difficult word to a simple word
and this is one I like
Wabble Wabble Wabble something will
wobble if something was it means it
moves from side to side very loosely
wobble you might wobble as you walk like
that wobble something that moves very
easily we can say that it wobbles so a
wobble is something that is an even
something that is moving because it is
loose or maybe it is not straight it
wobbles maybe your table at home when
you sit down to have your meal maybe
your table will wobble it wobbles from
side to side I think so I trying to
pronounce the word that you just showed
and my tongue does it find a way don't
worry you can watch the lesson again and
I will give you plenty of time because
you could watch it forever you can watch
this lesson forever and ever you can
watch it once twice or even a million
times if you want wobble something
wobbles it wobbles here's another one oh
okay then we have a very similar word
here it looks very similar to the
previous one dabble dabble this is an
English word it is used quite often a
person who tries to do something maybe
they do something not seriously but they
try they have a go at doing it they try
it not seriously but they have a go they
try it they dabble in that particular
thing a certain action that you try but
you don't do it professionally you just
dabble you do it from time to time so
maybe you dabble in home decorating you
do it sometimes you don't do it all the
time it is not your professional job you
dabble dabble I like that word I like
that word very much we only have three
more words and then I will be going it's
almost time for me to go can you believe
it our two hours have almost come to an
end here's another word oh I like this
one I like this one I like it a lot
yes wobble moving from side to side not
straight and also not fixed not fixed so
maybe a table that is not even will
wobble isn't that annoying do you ever
sit down in a cafe or a restaurant and
you sit at the table in the table
wobbles it's so annoying it really is
very annoying on trum yes dabble try
something in all in the way in a certain
way but not seriously you try to do it
so what about this word what about this
word ooh okay come on Duncan concentrate
here is another word a strange English
world but it is a real word it's
definitely real honestly the word is
brouhaha brouhaha it sounds a little bit
like instead it is brouhaha brouhaha
brouhaha means an argument or fight
something that is chaotic maybe an
argument between one or more people
what how can you have an argument with
yourself where you can I suppose I mean
I could I have arguments with myself all
the time
no mr. Duncan you can't do that well why
not well because you can't you just
can't but I wanted but no you can't so I
suppose you can have an argument with
yourself it is a bit weird so an
argument taking place between two or
more people is a brouhaha a very noisy
disagreement a brouhaha so if your
neighbors are having a fight in the
middle of the night and there is lots of
noise coming from the house you might
say who in my neighbor's house last
night there was a brouhaha a brouhaha an
argument a very aggressive argument
normally involving shouting or maybe
things being broken get out something
like that uni Kareena imagine using all
these words together for the first time
when he meets someone who is a native
English speaker he or she would never
talk to us again I'm not sure about that
I don't think so they would be very
impressed I think their head their head
would explode I think so brouhaha is a
big argument noisy argument taking place
people disagreeing and shouting at each
other
it's a brouhaha here's another one we
have just two more so this is the
penultimate penultimate oh I like that
word excuse me whilst I just enjoy the
word I just said
panel Tamera
penultimate penultimate ah that's better
so here is the penultimate word by the
way
penultimate means the second-to-last so
it's not the last word it is the
second-to-last so the next word will be
the last word this word is the
penultimate word that we are looking at
today scallywag a scallywag is a young
person who is mischievous they do very
bad things maybe they are a disruptive
child or a young teenager we can
describe them as a scallywag scallywag I
love that word it's great scallywag a
mischievous teenager a young person who
does bad things or maybe they are always
doing things that they shouldn't be a
disruptive young person is often
described as a scallywag
it sounds made-up
it isn't it is a real word you can check
all of these words later if you don't
believe me maybe you doubt me maybe you
doubt me how could you how could you
doubt me how could you doubt me after
all we've been through together after
all of the adventures that we've had
don't forget the adventures that we've
had in the past so many adventures so
I'm not lying those words are real
including this one this is the final
word that we're looking at today before
we say goodbye
Harbinger Harbinger when we describes
something as a harbinger it is something
that is bringing a message a certain
type of message a harbinger something
that comes along and gives you a
message or a feeling we could also use
the word omen so a harbinger is
something that comes along and it is
giving you a certain feeling or
messenger or message
so the harbinger is literally the thing
that comes your way maybe a message or a
feeling the harbinger of doom is
something that is coming your way that
might create problems in the future
harbinger the bringer the bringer of bad
news or bad feelings or bad events
harbinger I like that I like it a lot
Thank You Valentin Vitesse mr. Duncan is
there an English word can attests or is
it a Spanish word I took it from the
song Hotel California the warm smell of
colitas always sea colitas I'm not quite
sure what that means I know that I know
the song very well Hotel California it's
raining oh my goodness look at the rain
coming down oh my goodness it's raining
such a nice try I'm not sure what Kaleta
colitas is it might be a type of it
might be a type of wine it does sound
like wine doesn't it sounds like the
name of a type of wine maybe thank you
very much for your company oh it's been
so nice to have you here today yes it is

made the curry in the kitchen we've
looked at some very strange words we
took a trip to Paris twice we had a

Palmeiras says oh when we were students
at university we called our dormitory
the Hotel California because if because
it was a very popular song
at the time that is a very old song by
the way it came out many years ago the
Hotel California it also has one of the
longest introductions of any song I
remember years ago when I used to do
radio presenting Wow look at that look
at that rain again what is going on out
there the rain is really coming down
quite heavily look at that Wow it is
definitely raining outside I can safely
say that the rain is definitely falling
outside my window look at that well as I
was saying many years ago when I used to
play Hotel California on the radio you
could talk for a very long time before
that the vocals came in so before the
people in the on the song started
singing you could talk for ages so I
used to like reading the weather or
doing some sort of chitchat over the
introduction of Hotel California because
I think it goes on for about two or
maybe three minutes it has one of the
longest introductions of any song that
was ever in the charts it's true it's
true I tell ya
thank you very much Valentin we are
getting some pleasure while speaking the
English words and is is what only
advanced English addicts can do have a
nice day and have a nice end of the day
as well thank you Valentin that's very
kind of you yes it is definitely raining
cats and dogs outside and that's what I
said earlier that's the reason why I
can't go outside at the moment to do my
live streams because the weather is so
unpredictable sometimes the Sun is out
and then sometimes it rains very heavily
Thank You Adrian thank you for your live
stream have a nice evening enjoy your
curry I will I definitely will
