Il cadavere della signora Luani viene scoperto nel suo appartamento: intorno a lei, per proteggerlo, si sono schierati cento gatti neri, tutti di proprietà della defunta. Vicino al corpo viene anche ritrovato un anello unisex con un simbolo celtico. Chi è l'assassino? E a chi appartiene l'anello? Il proprietario dell'anello è anche l'assassino della signora Luani? A questi interrogativi dovrà rispondere il sagace Ispettore Malvisi.

Strop. Codswallop. Knackered. Just like the picture of a chair in the street above (no, we don’t get it either), we Brits do say some strange things sometimes – usually because they evolved from the many, many (many) vastly different regional dialects that exist across the UK (or the strange and very long history of the English language.) Unfortunately, that doesn’t help if you’re learning English in Britain and can’t understand half of what people are saying!

Whether you work for a small company, a large company, you're a student, or you're looking for your next job, planning is an essential part of our work days. Today we're going to look at some important vocabulary that we can use to communicate our ideas when planning out our days. We've got a bunch of vocabulary here, including two phrasal verbs and an idiom. Don't forget that I'm a full time English coach and tutor right here on iTalki so if you're interested in working together to improve the way that you communicate at work then please feel free to send me a message!
