Advanced English: Let's talk about water

Hi, guys!

Today we are gonna have a short lesson about crimes!

We are going to study new words and grammar. And as homework you will have some exercises.
Let’s go.

Crime is a very interesting topic, and a bad guy who takes your money or kills someone we can call a criminal, a felon or a culprit. This guy usually commits a crime.

Okay, so a criminal, a felon or a culprit commits a crime.

What other crimes should we know?

Bribery. Bribery is a crime when one person gives money to get an illegal service. For example, a person gives a doctor 1000$ to make fake papers. When you make fake papers, we call it forgery. 

Okay, bribery, to give a bribe.

Next word is blackmail. If he wanted to give a bribe, but his doctor refused, he can blackmail him. It means that he writes: “If you don’t do what I want, I will ruin your life”. He threatens this person.

Blackmail, to blackmail, blackmailer.


If this person doesn’t listen to this guy, he starts stalking him. He becomes a stalker. He follows him every minute. He wants to get what he’s asking for.

Finally the police arrest him. He is a criminal and he’s behind bars. 

People start talking about him:

“-It is said that he is a criminal
-yes, he is said to be a blackmailer and stalker. He also gave a bribe!”

If you look at these sentences you can see a very good grammar structure.

Let's take a closer look.

For example, we say  “She is a teacher.” We can also say “it is said that she is a teacher” or “sh is said to be a teacher” 

It is said she is beautiful
She is said to be beautiful.


Practise these sentences at home and ask me for correct answers in messages.

He is smart. 
He is a felon. He gives a bribe.
She is a stalker. She stalks him every day.
Criminals commit crimes. 
Bob is a felon. He blackmails people.
Susue is a criminal. She blackmails people and gives bribes.

That’s it guys. If yo9u liked this podcast, and this lesson you can book a trial lesson with me!

CRIMES!

En unos días es Navidad de nuevo y he pensado que es un buen momento para compartir contigo algunas expresiones españolas con temática navideña. Aunque la mayoría de expresiones que voy a compartir hoy las usamos durante todo el año creo que las tenemos especialmente en cuenta en esta época.

Como siempre, espero que disfrutes el episodio. Después de escucharlo no te olvides de dejar una valoración ni de pasarte por mi Instagram para decirme que te ha parecido y si conocías estas expresiones españolas. Además, me encantaría saber si en tu país tenéis alguna expresión típica de estas fechas.
