Today we're looking at vocabulary that we can use when someone has been asking us to do something for a long time, and you don't really want to do it, but you eventually agree! We're taking a look at the phrasal verbs "to give up", "to cave in", and "to capitulate". I hope you find today's podcast useful!

The Possessive Word “dyal”

Welcome to The Age of Humans - an open door into the past and the future and far away lands, the door through which all of that spills into your everyday life while you’re having a cup of coffee, commuting, running, fishing or whatever crazy stuff you’re into. But who are we and what will you get from listening to us? We're a couple of friends interested in the culture of us, humans. Think anything from geography to technology, from history to futurism. We produce this podcast as an excuse to learn about Languages and Communication, and for you - the tool to do it. Follow us for new episodes and check out our social media accounts at ageofhumans.

 Tom:  嗯...我希望她的皮肤越来越好，买个好坟地有什么问题吗？

   Lily:  哦... 这样啊，那个叫粉底，不叫坟地。粉底是化妆品，坟地嘛。嗯...坟地...坟地是埋死人的地方。

Tom: Hi Lily, the holidays are coming soon and I want to buy a present for my girlfriend.

   Lily: Wow, you're so sweet, so... what gift are you going to buy her?

 Tom: Hmm... I'm going to buy her a useful cemetery.

   Lily: What? Graveyard? Um... how... how... can you treat your girlfriend like this?

 Tom: Hmm...I hope her skin gets better and better, is there any problem with buying a good cemetery?

   Lily: Oh... Well, that's called a foundation, not a graveyard. Foundation is cosmetic, cemetery. Well... cemetery... cemetery is where the dead are buried.


fén dì→cemetery→坟地
fěn dǐ→Foundation make-up→粉底
