In this 1 minute episode I will be discussing 'British Politeness'.

Please find the transcript of the episode below.

Welcome to this British English podcast. 

In this episode I'll be discussing the topic 'British politeness'.

Brits, which is short for 'British people', are often known for being polite. 

Polite means "showing respect for other people". For example, many Brits often say 'please and thank you'.

In Britain, people often say 'sorry'. They use the word 'sorry' in many different situations. For example,

"sorry I'm late!" or if a person bumps into you, they will often say 'sorry' very quickly. 

 British people are indirect when speaking. For example, a British person wouldn't say
"give me the salt", instead they would say "could you pass me the salt, please?". 

Finally, British people love to queue. 
To queue means 'to wait in line'. They queue for everything! Especially the bus!

One Minute Challenge: Who are you grateful to?

Today's one-minute challenge is to think of people or a person that you feel grateful for.

Who is this person?

How did you get acquainted with this person?

What did they help you with?

And what are the consequences of their help? How did your life change as a result?

Take some time. You can listen to the recording several times to answer the questions. Listen to it. Reading and listening are two modalities (languages of the mind, if you will). Use them both to stimulate your mind differently!

And apply for my private 1-on-1 coaching to go from an English learner to a confident English communicator, whether for job interview preparation, an IELTS speaking exam, or improving your business English for a career and promotions.

See you in my 1-1 classes.

                                                              (🌷 يَوْمُ فِي حَيَاةِ سَلْمَى🌷) 
سَلْمَى طَالِبَةٌ جَدِيدَةٌ فِي المَدِينَةِ. تَعِيشُ فِي شَقَّةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ مَعَ أُخْتِهَا. كُلَّ صَبَاحٍ، تَسْتَيْقِظُ وَتَقُولُ: "السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ." تَذْهَبُ إِلَى المَطْبَخِ وَتَتَنَاوَلُ الفَطُورَ. تُحِبُّ شُرْبَ الحَلِيبِ وَأَكْلَ الخُبْزِ. بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، تُصَلِّي الفَجْرَ وَتَقْرَأُ قَلِيلًا مِنَ القُرْآنِ. فِي السَّاعَةِ الثَّامِنَةِ، تَذْهَبُ إِلَى الجَامِعَةِ لِلدِّرَاسَةِ. فِي الفَصْلِ، تَتَعَرَّفُ عَلَى أَصْدِقَاءِ جُدُدٍ. بَعْدَ الدِّرَاسَةِ، تَعْمَلُ فِي مَكْتَبَةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ. بَعْدَ العَمَلِ، تَعُودُ إِلَى المَنْزِلِ وَتَتَنَاوَلُ العَشَاءَ مَعَ أُخْتِهَا. تُحِبُّ أَكْلَ الأَرُزِّ وَالخُضَارِ. قَبْلَ النَّوْمِ، تَقْرَأُ كِتَابًا وَتَقُولُ:  "تُصْبِحِينَ عَلَى 
 خَيْرٍ" لِأُخْتِهَا

Questa è la seconda parte dal mio viaggio sulla West Coast Americana, il Big Sur. Faccio una descrizione del paesaggio, parlo di alcune delle caratteristiche di questa zona e anche dei posti piú conosciuti da vedere, dove ci si puó fermare e anche mangiare. Tempi verbali: passato prossimo, passato remoto, presente.
