This International Women's Day, we revisit the story of Arminda de Jesus, a 32-year-old mother accused of witchcraft in 1933 Portugal. Through our interview with Dr. Inês Tadeu from the University of Madeira, we present the historical facts of this little-known case from the village of Soalhães. Dr. Tadeu's research through trial records and newspaper accounts provides context for understanding how witchcraft accusations persisted into the 20th century. Arminda's case, occurring just 22 years after the first International Women's Day, illustrates the ongoing threat faced by women accused of witchcraft globally.Content warning: Contains descriptions of violence.International Women's DayWitch Hunt Episode: Witchcraft Accusations and Gender Inequality with Dr. Samantha SpenceWitch Hunt Episode: Women and Witch Trials with Ann LittleMaryland House Joint Resolution 2MD Witch Exoneration Project WebsiteSign the Maryland PetitionSign the Massachusetts PetitionConnecticut Exoneration Written TestimonyWitch Hunt podcastContribute to End Witch HuntsSign up for our Newsletter

In February 1933, while the world was entering the age of radio and automobiles, individuals from the town of Soalhaes, Portugal burned a woman accused of witchcraft. The victim was Arminda de Jesus, a 32-year-old mother of two children, known locally for her kindness and for helping her troubled neighbor. That same neighbor would accuse her of witchcraft, leading to an exorcism ritual that spiraled tragically out of control and ended in Arminda's death. Through meticulous research in Portuguese archives, Dr. Inês Tadeu from the University of Madeira has reconstructed this forgotten case using trial records and newspaper accounts. She joins us to discuss how witchcraft beliefs persisted into the twentieth century, and why some communities still struggle to confront these dark aspects of our humanity. Together, we explore how a simple accusation of witchcraft could end in murder in 1930s Europe, and why Arminda's story remained buried for so long.

O livro “Une Odyssée Portugaise (Presque Ordinaire)” conta a história de um homem e, através dele, de milhares de portugueses que deixaram o país durante a ditadura. O seu autor é Mário Queda Gomes que transforma o pai num herói de carne e osso: um homem do povo que passou a infância numa aldeia portuguesa perdida, pequena e mesquinha, na década de 50, que começa a trabalhar em criança e cujas aventuras em busca de uma vida melhor o levam para Lisboa, Angola e França. Oiça aqui a entrevista. RFI: "O Mário veste a personagem do seu pai, Carlos, e conta a história da vida dele como quem dá um murro na mesa e no estômago. Porque é que decidiu escrever este livro?"Mário Queda Gomes, Autor de “Une Odyssée Portugaise (Presque Ordinaire)”: "São histórias que eu ouço desde pequeno à mesa, ao domingo. O meu pai conta histórias de quando era criança na Beira Alta, de quando começou a trabalhar em Lisboa e, mais tarde, quando chegou a Angola e quando chegou à França em 1975. São aventuras. Quando leio, gosto de livros com aventura, com humor, com uma parte cómica. Eu achei que a história do meu pai era perfeita para ter um livro com muita aventura e humor.""Porque é que o livro se chama 'Uma Odisseia Portuguesa (Quase Normal)'?""Foi complicado encontrar o título certo. Primeiro chamava-se “Le Roman de Carlos”, mas a editora não gostou e tivemos que pensar num outro título. Este título, “Uma Odisseia Portuguesa”, abre o campo de possibilidades. Em vez de focar na história no meu pai, a ideia era focar na história de milhares de portugueses que viveram também a mesma aventura. E, porque não também - porque, hoje em dia, a imigração continua a ser um tema de actualidade - através do meu pai falar dos portugueses, mas também de todos as pessoas que um dia deixaram o país para vir, por exemplo, para França.""E porque é que assumiu a pele do seu pai enquanto narrador?""Isso também foi uma escolha bastante natural porque eu adoro a maneira como o meu pai conta histórias. Eu tentei reproduzir um pouco do talento oral do meu pai. Quando ele conta essas misérias, ele põe o pessoal a rir, portanto, eu tentei, quando escrevi, reproduzir essa maneira de falar muito portuguesa e de retratar o passado do meu pai mas com humor.""Há muito sarcasmo a acompanhar relatos de violência de pais contra filhos, de homens contra mulheres, de crianças contra crianças, de vizinhos contra vizinhos, de portugueses racistas e machistas contra angolanos e angolanas, de portugueses contra os retornados, de franceses contra os portugueses, etc, etc. E, às vezes, fica-se com um amargo na boca e pensa-se: será que ele está a denunciar ou a justificar?...""Essa foi a parte complicada para ter ali um equilíbrio, para tentar retratar aquilo que é a realidade ou que foi a realidade. Essa foi a parte complicada, de facto, porque os portugueses em Angola não foi uma missão filantrópica. Ao mesmo tempo, eu sinto que quando o meu pai fala de Angola fala com nostalgia, que ele gostava mesmo de Angola. São os mais belos anos da vida dele quando estava em Angola, mesmo na tropa, gostou também dessa fase da vida dele. Foi essa a dificuldade, de arranjar ali um equilíbrio para denunciar, mas com ironia. Ou seja, dizer por vezes o contrário daquilo que se pensa, mas acabar por dizer aquilo que eu pensava através do meu pai e outras personagens.""Faz questão de misturar referências bíblicas, ditados populares portugueses, figuras dos mitos do Império, referências musicais e literárias portuguesas. Há, também, palavrões e uma linguagem assumidamente coloquial. Escreve em francês, mas as referências e os insultos são em português. Porquê este cruzamento de registos?""Primeiro, porque gosto muito da cultura portuguesa. Eu sou professor de português aqui em França e tenho essa missão de, de certa forma, promover a cultura portuguesa junto dos meus alunos. Quando escrevi o livro, acho que guardei essa mentalidade de tentar promover aquilo que é nosso, português, e escrevi em francês porque a ideia também é de se promover a história de Portugal, aquilo que foi o percurso de muitos portugueses antes de chegar à França, junto de um público francês. Espero que que este livro também chegue às mãos de um público francês porque também fiz um trabalho com a língua francesa. Tentei não escrever de maneira clássica, tentei criar um estilo novo. Eu pensava o livro em português e escrevia em francês. Essa foi a minha linha de escrita: pensar em português, escrever em francês. E foi uma pequena ginástica que eu tive que fazer no início, mas depois consegui ter aquela dinâmica e é um encontro entre a cultura francesa e portuguesa.""No livro, o Mário não poupa nada, nem ninguém, muito menos a própria família. Comecemos com a infância do narrador, Carlos, na verdade, o seu pai.  Ele fala de uma aldeia mesquinha, “Lobras”, que descreve como “o fim do mundo”; conta que o pai dele quase matou a esposa com uma sova; que a mãe alcoólica Maria da Paixão preferia comprar vinho do que alimentar os filhos; que a professora primária dona Arminda tinha como método de ensino dar reguadas na cabeça dos meninos; que não teve direito a uma infância e que teve de deixar a escola para trabalhar; que o tio quase morria numa espécie de ritual de bruxaria, etc. Foi o seu pai que lhe contou? Ele acompanhou-o na escrita?""Sim, exactamente. São histórias que eu ouço desde pequeno. Quando o meu pai contava essas histórias à mesa, eu ficava fascinado com aquelas histórias porque eu nasci em 1979, em França, no conforto, num país com uma democracia consolidada, uma grande potência mundial, portanto, para mim, ele era um livro. Era um livro de aventuras quando o meu pai contava as histórias. Essas histórias são verdadeiras e quando eu quis escrever um livro essa história, enfim, havia tanta aventura para contar que era só recolher o testemunho do meu pai! Tentar, claro, fazer o meu trabalho de autor e fazer um livro com uma dinâmica, com uma aventura em todas as páginas e, também, reproduzir a forma de contar do meu pai que,  mesmo quando conta as misérias, põe o público a rir. As pessoas que estavam à mesa riam das misérias do meu pai.""O Mário teve o cuidado de alterar alguns nomes e mesmo a própria localidade, 'Lobras'…""Exacto. O meu pai teve uma infância um pouco complicada e eu quis trocar o nome da aldeia porque digo muito mal daquela aldeia e não queria prejudicar as pessoas que moram lá. É uma aldeia da Beira Alta. E não digo mais…""Farto de ser explorado em Lisboa, ainda adolescente, Carlos decide mandar-se para Luanda e pede emprestado dinheiro a uma prima que lá estava para embarcar. Em Angola, é novamente explorado e depois chega à idade para ir lutar para o mato contra os que lutavam pela sua independência. Você mostra a guerra do ponto de vista do seu pai, um branco, mas também tenta denunciar a desproporção de forças e os crimes hediondos que os portugueses cometiam, não é?""Exactamente. Ainda por cima, o meu pai conta aquilo que quer. Tentei contar as histórias vistas pelo meu pai, mas também quis dar um retrato de uma guerra que é sempre uma guerra. As guerras são sempre sujas. Tentei também contar esse ponto de vista e conseguir, mesmo através da sua personagem, dar uma mensagem pessoal.  Arranjar um equilíbrio entre aquilo que era a realidade vista pelo meu pai, mas também a minha parte de autor de não dar a imagem de uma guerra bonita e perfeita. Nenhuma guerra é assim.""A seguir conta que os portugueses nas antigas colónias se sentiram completamente abandonados depois da Revolução dos Cravos e que era preciso sobreviver ao que chamou de 'apocalipse colonial' com a vingança das pessoas que durante séculos foram escravizadas e depois colonizadas. Ainda que fosse assim que o seu pai viveu isto, contar esta história é mandar uma pedra para o charco ou é perpetuar uma narrativa, entre aspas, branca?""É uma boa pergunta. Eu tentei ser fiel ao testemunho do meu pai. Ele viveu essa fase da história que foi a derrocada portuguesa nos anos 75. Eu acho que os portugueses viveram uma situação complicada porque eu quando escrevi experimentei um bocadinho daquilo que foi a vida dos portugueses, escrevendo. De certa forma, eu acho que eles viveram ali uns momentos complicados, mesmo de sofrimento, em que se sentiram abandonados pelo Estado português. Depois, é histórico: quando chegaram a Portugal não havia emprego, não havia alojamentos, foi também por isso que eles foram para França. Nessa parte, eu acho que simplesmente fui fiel àquilo que disse o meu pai e, de certa forma, houve uma compaixão também com os portugueses que viveram uma situação bastante complicada e se sentiram realmente abandonados.""É justamente outro tema que aborda sem tabus: a discriminação dos retornados. Fala de cerca de 500.000 pessoas das antigas colónias luso-africanas que regressam a Portugal e lemos 'Percebemos logo que não éramos bem-vindos no nosso país'. Relatar isto é corrigir uma injustiça?""Sim. É interessante porque falei da aventura, da boa disposição do meu pai a contar as histórias, mas quando leio um romance também gosto de aprender alguma coisa.  Acho que neste romance há muita História - eu tentei reproduzir o contexto da época - mas também é um livro em que tentei pôr emoções e sente-se essa fase complicada da derrocada portuguesa depois da Revolução dos Cravos e depois da independência da África Lusófona. A ideia foi recriar essa situação que os portugueses viveram, muitos portugueses, não foi só o meu pai. Através do meu pai é o exemplo de muitos portugueses que estiveram durante anos em Angola, por exemplo, e chegam a Portugal e Portugal não tem condições para receber os filhos da nação. E foram empurrados para fora. Acho que isso é uma realidade e foi uma opção narrativa de escrever o livro através do olhar do meu pai, reproduzir aquilo que é a opinião do meu pai e a vivência do meu pai naquela altura.""E também humanizar um tema que finalmente não é assim tão falado?""Exactamente. É um livro que fala de uma altura de Portugal e de um português e através desse português falo de muitos portugueses, mas espero também falar de muita gente hoje em dia que foge do seu país para chegar à França ou outros países e dar um rosto a essa gente, uma identidade, contando esse percurso antes de chegar a França. O percurso que foi de milhares de portugueses, neste caso. Não foi um percurso fácil, são heróis quase normais. Foi numa conversa com a minha editora: o meu pai é quase uma figura banal porque, naquela altura, todos os portugueses viveram grandes aventuras porque foram empurrados pela História para fora do país. O meu pai foi para Angola, outros vieram a salto até França ou até à Alemanha. Algumas personagens no livro vivem essa parte. Tentei escrever um livro mais universal para não ser só um livro para portugueses. Não é um livro só para portugueses.""Mas é um livro em homenagem ao seu pai?""Sim, mas como dizia o Miguel Torga, o universal é o local sem os muros. Qualquer coisa assim. Eu tentei falar do meu pai, de Portugal, mas sem os muros. Escrevi em francês, gostava que o público francês também lesse o livro e pudesse ver o que foi a vida dos portugueses antes de chegarem, mas também tentei humanizar o meu pai o máximo possível e esse percurso dos portugueses também.""Carlos vai, então, para França com a esposa e aí vemos outros relatos que os emigrantes portugueses reconhecem, sem dúvida. Podemos ler, a dada altura, que 'o tempo dos bairros de lata acabou em 1972, mesmo se muitos olham os portugueses como animais selvagens, vindos de fora, pobres estrangeiros sem valor, portugueses da ponta da Europa, a verdade é que deixámos a nossa condição de ratos'. O narrador descreve, também, como alugou a primeira casa insalubre, arrendada pelo próprio patrão que, como tantos outros patrões, se aproveitava da miséria dos portugueses. Entre outros trabalhos, ele acaba por  'conduzir o exército dos invisíveis sem papéis, de escritório em escritório, para limpar o Val-de-Marne das suas imundícies'. Este livro é, também, um ajuste de contas?""A minha editora acha que eu fui simpático demais nessa parte final! Mas o meu pai tem uma boa imagem da França. Eu acho que não há mais patriótico do que o meu pai em relação à França. Eu acho que, às vezes, os franceses precisavam de ir para fora viver outras experiências para saberem a sorte que têm de estar em França. O meu pai sempre teve essa mensagem junto dos filhos que é a de que estar em França é uma sorte. Ele tem uma imagem positiva. Mesmo assim, quando chegou aqui ele não tinha dinheiro, não sabia falar a língua francesa e teve que se adaptar. Acho que essa é uma das grandes qualidades reconhecidas ao povo português que chegou a França, os próprios franceses reconhecem que os portugueses têm essa capacidade de se adaptarem, essa coragem de agarrarem qualquer emprego, qualquer trabalho.""Isso também deu muito jeito aos franceses…""Claro, mas eu tentei, mesmo assim, mostrar que os portugueses foram aqueles heróis quase normais, comuns, porque chegaram aqui, as condições não eram fáceis. Eu conto no livro: o primeiro casaco que a minha mãe comprou foi a crédito; o meu pai teve que comprar uma bicicleta em segunda mão. Esta é a história de muitos portugueses. Não foram só os meus pais. Para mim, como eu dizia há bocadinho, que nasci em 1979 no conforto, são vidas paralelas, não tem nada a ver com a minha vivência.""Também retrata a coragem das mulheres que, com duas crianças nos braços, não temem em 'dar o salto' e 'sair pela porta pequena e clandestinamente' de Portugal para França. Mas, ao mesmo tempo, desmonta - ou não? - o machismo do 'Rodrigo de França' a emigrar primeiro e, só depois de sair do bairro de lata de Champigny-sur-Marne, é que diz à esposa para se juntar a ele porque já precisava de alguém para se ocupar da casa e da cozinha…""Sim. Peço desculpa ao meu tio! Troquei o nome de propósito. Mas é que os portugueses, na altura, primeiro vinha o homem arranjar trabalho, um emprego e uma casa. Depois, só depois, é que vinha o resto da família. A sociedade naquela altura - ainda é um bocado, mas as coisas estão a mudar - era machista e era a lógica do casal do Rodrigo.""O seu pai e a sua mãe acompanharam a escrita do livro, já percebemos, mas já o leram? Expor assim a família, reabre ou cura feridas?""O meu pai não tem qualquer problema com isso. Eu quando fui escrevendo o livro, já conhecia essas histórias, mas quando uma pessoa quer escrever, depois precisa de conteúdo e coisas mais factuais. Eu passei muitas horas, durante esses três anos de escrita, com o meu pai, em Portugal ou aqui - eles moram em Boissy Saint-Léger - à mesa, eu a fazer perguntas, ele a responder, eu a tomar apontamentos... Ele não tem qualquer problema com isso, em expor a vida, se calhar há aqui episódios que eu próprio não assumiria e que ele assume. Ele já leu o livro e o comentário dele foi: 'Tive mesmo uma infância de merda!'. Ele vive o livro como se revivesse o passado, não com o olhar crítico-literário.""Ficou emocionado?""Sim, acho que sim. Dediquei o livro ao meu pai e só essa parte já foi bonita porque ele ficou emocionado. É uma homenagem ao meu pai e àquelas histórias que eu ouvi quando era pequeno, que me comoviam e que eu achava mesmo que eram uma aventura de loucos.""Para terminar, fale-nos um pouco de si. Este é o segundo livro publicado em França. Em 2018, publicou 'Les Passages Obligés'. Que ambições e que espaço é que a escrita tem para si?""Eu sou professor perto de Rouen, professor de português, e sempre escrevi durante muitos anos para a minha gaveta. Escrevia e depois arrumava na gaveta ou não terminava os meus projectos. Chegou uma altura em que pensei que tinha de terminar os meus projectos e assumir – porque publicar é quase o contrário de escrever, publicar é expor o nosso trabalho. Havia duas ou três histórias que eu gostava de escrever e de publicar. Esta foi uma delas. São histórias que vêm de longe. Já passei os 40 anos e estou a assumir aquilo que escrevo, pela segunda vez, porque já escrevi um livro em 2018 chamado 'Les Passages Obligés' em que conto o meu dia-a-dia de professor com os meus alunos também baseado em factos reais."

This week Dominique and Arminda are joined by legendary lighting designer and historian Kathy A. Perkins about her collaboration with Alice Childress and how she came to edit the anthology of Childress's plays. Guest: Kathy A. Perkins

“Eres de la familia”, le repitieron tantas veces sus empleadores a Arminda, que terminó por creerlo. Lavó, limpió, cocinó, cuidó, sin recibir un salario. El día en que decidió irse, sin ahorros, sin beneficios, se dio cuenta de que una trabajadora del hogar difícilmente deja de ser una extraña, alguien de paso, alguien reemplazable. Arminda Gómez Quispe nació en la comunidad de Mollipongo de la provincia Camacho (La Paz), segunda de tres hijas de una pareja de campesinos aymaras. Su hermana mayor migró primero a la ciudad. Arminda quiso seguirla pronto. Sus padres trataron de disuadirla, de que al menos terminara el bachillerato; pero la adolescente estaba empeñada en buscar una vida menos dura que la rural de los años 80 que le tocó en suerte. Ella supo sortear un sinfín de vicisitudes y comprendió que la vida hay que mirarla como aprendizaje y oportunidad. Hoy Arminda es propietaria de un negocio propio y rentable. La historia de Arminda Gómez es una de las 10 seleccionadas en la convocatoria "Trabajo, empleo, chamba" de Rascacielos junto al Centro de Estudios para el Desarrollo Laboral y Agrario CEDLA, y el apoyo de la Embajada de Suecia para hablar del #empleo en #Bolivia a través de distintas trayectorias laborales. La historia fue propuesta por ella misma y la crónica fue escrita por Mabel Franco, con ilustración de Andrea Balcázar. El guión es de Melisa Balderrama. En la locución estuvieron Valeria Moeller, Mabel Franco y Álvaro Chubi Gonzáles. La producción estuvo a cargo de Iván Méndez.

Hacemos un repaso por el destino que corrieron ocho mujeres de la nobleza de la sociedad aborigen canaria. Mujeres que se casaron, o fueron casadas, con conquistadores. Enlaces que a ellos les proporcionaban legitimidad, de cara a la sociedad canaria, y a ellas les permitía mantener su estatus social. El historiador Manuel Lobo nos ayuda a hacer este repaso y a comprender el drástico cambio cultural y de costumbres que tuvieron que vivir estas mujeres. *Fe de erratas: Durante la entrevista se dice, por error, que la niña Arminda "recibe" a los visitantes del Museo Canario cuando lo hace en la Cueva Pintada de Gáldar, en Gran Canaria.

Escuchamos un poco sobre la vida de Arminda y lo que ella ha aprendido acerca de sí misma, su familia, y la identidad que ha encontrado en Jesús.

In a previous life I was immersed in the art and culture of the music industry, writing and producing in Los Angeles when a different muse caught my eye in the form of the seductive Pinot Noir, drawing me into the artistry of winemaking. After several years at various wineries such as Clos du Bois, Assistant Winemaker at Armida and Winemaker at Dutcher Crossing, I decided now to honor my muse with a creation all my own: L’Objet Wines. My philosophy on winemaking is really very simple. I pursue the finest vineyards and fruit, turning away grapes I believe would require too much manipulation. I believe that the vineyard should do the talking and I am the steward for it’s voice. I am sure you will find the quality of the grapes, the vineyards and this wine will speak for itself.

Arminda Thomas grew up in Memphis and her parents always had music playing. She sang a lot as a child but didn't really play an instrument, until Guy Davis left a banjo at her house and she started playing. She also remembers that, when both of her grandmothers passed close in time, she began researching the music they would have listened to when young, which led her to discover the wide variety of roots music. That led eventually to her radio show "Music from the Well," hosted as MemphisMinda, which features eclectic roots music, streams at www.rhythmandsoulradio.com, and is archived on mixcloud. She says "I like the idea that the music is alive" and wants to give people the "chance to connect." She says a lot of roots players were the type who sang and played on their front porch; she thinks it was joy, the joy of doing it, that was their goal. She also says, "I think everybody should be in a band, because bands are about being in relationships in ways that are very practical, and also emotional, but there are solutions. It has helped me grow, ... leads me closer to building peace."

Arminda "Mindy" Figueroa, MBA President & Founder, Latin2Latin Marketing + Communications is interviewed in this episode.

It’s messy in my mind Pronunciation - ‘title’ ACADEMIC TERMS We looked at some useful academic vocabulary in episode 87: http://www.inglespodcast.com/2016/01/24/academic-english-vocabulary-airc87/  Here are a few more expressions: To do/sit/take an exam To redo/resit/retake an exam (if you fail first time round!) - to do resits To do a degree in ___________ eg. I’m doing a degree in Physics at Oxford (University) (A career = a long-term profession/job, NOT a degree. eg. Peter had a 30-year career as a policeman until he retired.) Higher education (HE) = university (UK)/college (USA) level education Further education (FE) = education after leaving school, eg. a technical college, an agricultural college, a catering college, etc. Tertiary education = anything after Primary then Secondary education = FE or HE There are four main degree levels: associate, bachelors, masters, and doctorate. Associate Degrees 2-year courses for things like nursing, graphic design and other vocational areas. - community colleges and technical schools. Completing an associate degree program qualify you to get a job. The most common degrees available at the associate level include: Associate of Arts (A.A.) Associate of Science (A.S.) Associate of Applied Science (AAS) Bachelor's Degrees Undergraduate program - 4 years usually - major area of study, such as finance, history, communications or biology. Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) Bachelor of Science (B.S./B.Sc.) Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) Master's Degrees Master's degree programs are graduate programs that let you specialize in an area of study. Usually take 1-2 years to complete. Many master's degree programs need you to write a thesis for graduation. Master of Arts (M.A.) Master of Science (M.S./M.Sc.) Master of Business Administration (MBA) Master of Fine Arts (MFA) Doctoral Degrees Doctoral degree programs, also known as Ph.D. programs, are the most advanced type of degree program available.

Keep on rocking! Email from Antonio from Badajoz Hi Reza and Craig! It's Antonio again with another question for you. Watching movies in original version, I've realised that a lot of times, I can hear the expression "How would you like...?" followed, for example, by either "a punch in the nose", or "being left by a woman that way" or something like that. I gather it's some kind of complaint or threat, but, since I can't entirely get my head round it. I'd love you guys to shed light on that if you please. Thanks in advance! hugs from Badajoz! 1. For offering someone something that you think they will enjoy. How would you like a glass of wine? How would you like a free T-shirt? 2. For telling someone to consider how they would feel if something bad happened to them, especially if it has already happened to you. How would you like a punch on the nose? (threat) How would you like someone stealing your mobile phone? How would you like it if I spilled beer on your trousers and didn't even apologise? How would you like being left by a woman in that way?

How old was Jose when the story happened? 2. Who had drowned in the chanal in the past? 3. How long did the incident take from start to finish? Now listen to Jose’s story and answer the questions 1. How old was Jose when the story happened - 10 2. Who had drowned in the chanal in the past? - gypsy children 3. How long did the incident take from start to finish - 30 seconds Corrections XHere is my story, I hope you likeX (it) XAll over us had forgiven playing close to the channelX (All of us had been forbidden to play close to the canal) You know how children are (good word order) Pronunciation of 'drown' and 'water' XNowadays, the water is running undergroundX (runs underground) XI realised that I was approaching to the tunnel.X - I realised that I was approaching the tunnel. Transcript I was living in the outskirts of Valencia, in the same city where I've always lived. Close to my home flowed one of the seven main channels in this city. Its water was used by a big paper factory, therefore the channel passed into the factory by a tunnel where there were two enormous wood blades rolling constantly in order to break up the things that the water dragged. Back then, the children we played on the street all our free time and naturally all of us had forbidden playing (had been forbidden to play) close to the channel. But you know how children are because you have also been two of them not very long ago. One day, we were around this forbidden place and the channel was so fast-flowing because of the previous rainy days, that water was on the edge, almost overflowing. I was walking on the edge admiring the speed and strength of the water when I slipped and fell into the water. My friends started to yell my name because they wanted to help me, but they couldn't because the water ran speedily and swept me along very quickly. I tried several times to reach the edge to get out from the water, but I couldn't. I realized, that I was approaching to the tunnel dangerously close to the tunnel and I knew I had just one more chance to reach the edge, but I fell again. Then, I knew that I didn't have enough time to try it again. I was afraid because I was already entering into the tunnel and I knew that this meant dying like many gypsy children had already drowned. However, the volume of the water was so high that my small body hit into the top of the tunnel and it stopped me for a few milliseconds and gave me time to reach the edge and get out from the water when my legs were already into (in) the tunnel. All of it happened just in around thirty seconds, no more. When my parents were told about that, they didn't scold me. Just gave me a huge hug and they thank God THAT nothing bad had HAPPENED to me. So, I could survive this way from a certain death from drowning. Surely I had still a lot of things to do in my life. Of course, we never went to play near the channel again, at least me. A few years later this channel was covered because of the city development, and nowadays the water is running underground. Well, this is my story. I hope you like (it). Recap - What makes a good story, like Jose’s? An accurate mix of verb tenses. eg past simple V past continuous V present perfect, etc. A varied, interesting range of vocabulary, including expressions/idioms Using detailed, descriptive language, especially adjectives and adverbs Using linking expressions. eg. contrast (although, etc); addition (on top of that, etc.); time (afterwards, etc.); consequence (as a result, etc.); reference (as for, etc) and so on. Using suspense, drama, mystery, shock, and other emotions that grab the reader’s attention ...and now it's your turn to practise your English. Do you have a true English story to tell us?

I found you three weeks ago and now I'm addicted. by Aldroper from Spain Voice Message from Gabriel from Tijuana He’s not disagreeing with us, he’s disagreeing with the wall. Episode 149 Edgar Ubaldo’s message (http://www.inglespodcast.com/2017/04/03/the-mexican-wall-and-eugenis-pronunciation-airc149/  ) Voice message from Josep from Barcelona The Phrase Finder: http://www.phrases.org.uk/  Kurt Cobain - Nirvana (1967-1994) It's better to burn out than to fade away." Elvis Presley (1935 - 1977) Towards the end of his life, at his last press conference, amongst the final words he said in public were: "I hope I haven't bored you." Elvis took an overdose of drugs and he said to his fiancée "I'm going to the bathroom to read." John Lennon (1940-1980) "I'm shot." John Quincy Adams (1767–1848) - 6th President of the United States "This, is the last of earth. I am content." Frank Sinatra died after saying, “I’m losing it.” Buddha (AKA Siddhattha Gautama) circa 563BC - circa 483BC "Work hard to gain your own salvation." He also said, "Behold, O monks, this is my advice to you. All component things in the world are changeable." George Orwell’s last written words were, “At fifty, everyone has the face he deserves.” He died at age 46. Leonardo da Vinci was very modest. He said, “I have offended God and mankind because my work did not reach the quality it should have.” Spike Milligan (1918-2005) "I told you I was ill." (Epitaph written on his tombstone) Sir Winston Churchill’s last words were, “I’m bored with it all.” As he was dying, Alfred Hitchcock said, “One never knows the ending. One has to die to know exactly what happens after death, although Catholics have their hopes.” Stan Laurel (1890-1965) "I'd rather be skiing." Groucho Marx’s final quip (witty remark) when he was dying was: “This is no way to live!” Ernesto “Che” Guevara’s last words before execution, after being taken prisoner: “I know you are here to kill me. Shoot! You’re only going to kill a man!” Johannes Brahms, German composer (1833 - 1897): “Ah! That tastes nice! Thank you” after he had a small glass of wine. Anna Pavlova, Russian ballerina, (1881 - 1931): “Get my swan costume ready.” Dylan Thomas, poet, (1914 - 1953): “I’ve had 18 straight whiskies. I think that’s the record…” Karl Marx, German philosopher, (1818 - 1883): When asked by his housekeeper what he wanted his final words to be, he said: “Go on, get out! Last words are for fools who haven’t said enough!” What would you want your last words to be? How would you like to be remembered?

What’s the difference between straw and hay? Cattle and poultry? To sow and to plough? You’ll learn some farming and agriculture vocabulary in this episode of Aprender Inglés con Reza y Craig. Las notas del episodio y más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles están en: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Shownotes and more podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Voice message from Tania from Ukraine living in Spain ("Thank you a million") What is the fastest and easiest way to learn vocabulary? Read! Apps or notebook Memrise (flashcards) - Website: http://www.memrise.com/  Write words on Post-it notes and stick them around your flat or office Duolingo - Website: http://www.duolingo.com/Duolingo  (iOS /Android) Use mnemonics (memory tricks) - ‘rathaus’ Research show that it's better to write down vocabulary and other information by hand rather than digitally. Voice message from Juan from Argentina who’s in Australia Farming and Agriculture Barn - a farm building (granero) - Were you born in a barn? - Close the door! Have you ever been to a barn dance? Cattle - animals like cows and oxen (buey) used for meat or milk Poultry - chickens and turkeys, etc. Livestock (ganado) Dairy = made from milk - vaquería (farm), lechería (store, shop), dairy product (producto lacteo) Crops - (cosecha, cultivo) We had a bad corn crop this year. Maize is an important crop. (sweetcorn, corn on the cob) Crop rotation - The practice of rotating use of different fields from crop to crop each year, to avoid exhausting the soil. Harvest - (cosecha, cosechar) ‘A bumper harvest’ = a very good harvest Vintage - Cosecha de vino To pick - (escoger, coger) pick flowers, fruit, grapes. You can pick grapes from a vine whick grows in a vinyard. Drought - sequía - Did you know that Spain imported water by ship in 2008? Drought in Spain’s northeastern region of Catalonia grew so severe in 2008 that Barcelona began importing water by ship from France. Soil (tierra) erosion Fertile land (producing crops) Fertilize (fertilizar) - fertilizer (fertilizante) Irrigation (irrigacíon, reigo) Orchard (fruit trees) an apple orchard, a cherry orchard ripe - maduro Pesticide (chemicals that you spray on crops) Hay - heno (dried grass) Hay bale/bale of hay - paca de heno Straw - paja To plough - arar To plant (plantar, sembrar) - to sow seeds To sow - sembrar. “To sow the seeds of...doubt (duda)/unrest (inquietud)” To reap - segar/cosechar. “To reap the rewards”= to benefit from good work/planning "You reap what you sow" Idioms to farm something out - to send work to someone to be done away from one's normal place of business; to subcontract work. “We farmed the podcasting editing out.” a funny farm – a hospital for people who are mentally ill Example: My grandmother had to send my uncle to the funny farm when she couldn’t take care of him at home anymore. Note (¡OJO!): This is a humorous or funny expression, but could be considered rude by some people. I’m so hungry I could eat a horse – to be very hungry until the cows come home – for a very long time I could record podcasts until the cows come home! the last (final) straw – the last of a series of events/annoyances/disappointments that lead a person to losing his or her patience/temper/hope “He’s been late a few times, but this is the last straw!” “Yesterday my neighbours were partying until 3pm. This was the last straw. I called the police. From the proverb: “It is the last straw that breaks the camel's back” spring chicken – a young person I’m no spring chicken! to make hay while the sun shines – (hay = heno) to take the opportunity to do something when the time and conditions are right - Work was going really well, so I decided to make hay while the sun shines and keep working for another 3 hours. don’t put all your eggs in one basket – don’t make everything dependent on one thing (same in Spanish) to reap what you sow – every action has a consequence; what you do comes back to you one way or another. If you treat your friends badly, you won’t have any friends. ‘What goes around comes around) This expression is usually used in a negative sense. (reap = cosechar “to reap the benefits of a situation = see the fruit) to take the bull by the horns – to be brave and confront difficult situations If you’re unhappy in your job, perhaps you take the bull by the horns and leave your company. Discussion Have you ever worked on a farm or picked fruit? Have you ever driven a tractor? Would you like to see more organic farming? Why (not)? Are you worried about too much intensive farming? ...and now it's your turn to practise your English. Are there any farms in your area? Have you ever worked on a farm like Juan?

What’s the difference between who, who’s whose and whom? That’s what you’ll learn in this episode of…….Aprender Ingles con Reza y Craig Las notas del episodio y más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles están en: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Shownotes and more podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Reza is on top of the world and as fit as a fiddle. Audio Feedback Janete Hernandez from Mexico I love your accent too, Janete! Audio feedback from Ana from Mexico (so many audio messages from Mexico - Thank you! Please keep sending your voice messages. You will hear them eventually!) Who Whose Who’s and Whom To understand how to use 'who', 'whom' and 'whose' you first have to understand the difference between subjects, objects and possessives. The subject does the action: She works in a cafe. He likes cooking. They bought a new car. The object receives the action: Everyone likes him. I don’t know her. They didn’t speak to us. Possessives tell us the person something belongs to: His new mobile phone is really expensive. I like his sunglasses, not hers. We’re selling our flat. 'Who' can be a subject pronoun like 'he', 'she' and 'they' or object pronoun like 'him', 'her' and 'us'. We can use 'who' to ask which person did an action or which person is in a certain state (subject): Who wrote the email? Who is that girl over there? Who is getting the drinks? We can also use ‘who’ to ask which person received an action (object): Who are you going to invite to the wedding? Who did you meet last night? Who has she chosen to go with? 'Whom' is an object pronoun like 'him', 'her' and 'us' used with formal English. We use ‘whom’ to ask which person received an action. It isn’t common to use whom. Most native speakers use ‘who’ instead. Who(m) are you going to invite to the wedding? Who(m) did you meet last night? Who(m) are they going to choose to manage Arsenal? ‘Whom’ MUST go after a preposition, NOT ‘who’, with formal English: The lady with whom Reza was dancing was the Marquise (=Marquesa) ‘For whom the bells toll’ is Hemingway’s famous novel set in the Spanish Civil War. ‘To whom it may concern’ is typical at the top of a reference. When the pronoun and preposition are separated and/or the pronoun comes first, ‘who’ MUST be used, NOT ‘whom’: The woman who Reza was dancing with must have been a bit tipsy! (tipsy=un poquito bebida) Who did they sell their old car to yesterday? Young boy: “Can I go to the cinema tonight, mum?” Mother: “Who with?” 'Whose' can be a possessive adjective, like 'her' and 'our', or possessive pronoun, like ‘hers’’ or ‘ours’ . We use 'whose' to find out which person something belongs to. Whose glass is this? Whose is this jacket? I see a book on my chair. Whose is it? Whose are these? Don’t confuse whose and who’s = who is. They’re pronounced the same: Who’s(= Who is) that ringing the doorbell? That’s the person who’s(= who is) coming with me to Brian’s party. My Dear friends: This is Edgar Ubaldo from Mexico again. - Question about the Mexican Wall ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2017/04/03/the-mexican-wall-and-eugenis-pronunciation-airc149/ ) According to Longman - "TOEFL Preparation Course", it is possible to use inversion (V + S) with negative expressions such as: never, hardly ever, etc. Because of that, and following my previous message, I wrote never shall we pa y for that wall. Nevertheless, I won't use this expression in an English Test or a normal conversation. Is this okay? or should I not use inversion in cases like this? Additionally, in a book I'm reading "A Tale of Two Cities", there are some questions that don't follow the right word order: "There are two other points on which I am anxious to be instructed. I may go on?" "You are sure that he is not under too great a strain?" "It would show itself in some renewal of this disorder?" I believe that it was written like that on purpose, but I don't know if there are any difference in meaning or intention. And finally friends, especially Reza, I would like to know the grammar behind this expression (taken from the same book): "He approached his second and last point. He felt it to be the most difficult of all; but, remembering his old Sunday morning conversation with Miss Pross, and remembering what he had seen in the last nine days, he knew that he must face it" Why is it Past Simple + Modal in present to talk about something that happened in the past?. I constantly try to express the same and said: I knew I should have faced it or something like that. (Reza’s explanation:”he knew that he had to face it" is the typical, everyday way to say it in modern English, because ‘had to’ is the past of ‘must’. However, it’s quite common to use ‘must’ instead of ‘had to’, even though it’s the past (“he knew that he must face it”), to make the story sound more lively and real, as if it were happening now, in the present, especially in storytelling/literature.) Audio feedback from Evelin Fernandez - advice for TOEFL test - speaking 20 minutes - 6 questions The first two are about familiar topics, and the other four are about short readings, lectures, and conversations. You will have a short amount of time after you read each question to prepare your response. Then you will be given a short amount of time to speak into a microphone. You will be evaluated on "delivery, language use and topic development". We spoke about the TOEFL and IELTS test in episode 68 ( https://www.inglespodcast.com/2015/09/13/the-toefl-and-ielts-test-airc68/ ) TOP TIPS FOR TOEFL - time yourself - take notes (bullet points) - breath deeply - practise speaking in noisy places and recording yourself - image you are speaking to a good friend as you speak into the microphone ...and now it's your turn to practise your English.

Las notas del episodio y más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles están en: http://www.inglespodcast.com Shownotes and more podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Welcome to Aprender Inglés with Reza and Craig. I’m …..and I’m…. With over 45 years of teaching between us, we'll help you improve your English and take it to the next level. Hello to Gustavo Gonzalo (AKA - also known as - Don Quixote from La Mancha) who sent a lovely email from ‘deep Spain’ - thanks for listening. An email from Raixa Pérez from Valladolid who’s going to Ireland this summer with her family. Hello Reza and Craig, I found your great, funny and incredibly useful podcast some months ago and I listen to you almost every working day, on my way to work. I passed the first certificate exam many years ago, around 20 or maybe more!! Your podcast is helping me a lot to refresh grammar, vocabulary, listening etc I listen to Luke's podcast in order to hear different accents, but your podcast is the most pedagogic.;) Next summer we will go to Ireland (we’re going to Ireland), to Cork, for 2 weeks to Learn English in a family. The children play in English and we attend English lessons...in the mornings. Reza, I am afraid we couldn't visit your great country, The North of Ireland (we won’t be able to), but could you give us some advice about Cork: What to visit, What dishes to eat...? I haven't written in English for many, many time (a long time/many years).. I am " oxidized" (rusty). Big hugs from Valladolid. And thank you very much in advance. Raixa Pérez Look out for the colourful buildings. Ask for Murphy's Stout, not Guinness in Cork. Seafood like mackerel, mussels and Oysters will be good in Cork, also milk, butter, buttermilk, Irish bread and a good fried breakfast. White pudding is a typical dish in this part of Ireland. Email: Rafael Alba Garcia Hola Craig, estoy oyendo vuestro podcast y alguien (no recuerdo el nombre) ha dado un significado de "carajo" y como yo ya opiné al respecto y como no coincide con lo que yo os dije, te pongo lo que dice el diccionario de la Real Academia de la lengua.....(solo pongo la primero acepción) que coincide con lo que yo os dije...... 1. m. malson. miembro viril. (es malsonante).... ya lo dejo que no me gusta ponerme muy pesado....saludos Voice message from Francisco Espínola - Úbeda A Short History of Britain The Celts settled in Britain around 700 BC The Celts are ancestors to many people in Scotland, Wales and Ireland (and also England). A famous Celt is Boadicea. She fought against the Romans. The Celts often had female leaders. The Romans occupied most of England and Wales in 43 AD. They built a wall along the Scottish border, called Hadrian’s Wall (after the Roman Emperor Hadrian) to keep the barbarians in the North. The Romans stayed in Britain for a long time. By the 5th Century, they were losing control and the Angles and the Saxons attacked Britain. Then, in the 9th century the Vikings came from Scandinavia attacking monasteries, killing monks and stealing gold and silver. The Vikings stayed in Britain for almost 300 years. They were finally defeated by the Saxon king, Alfred (Alfred the Great) - the first great Anglo-Saxon King of England. In 1066, the Norman invaders from France, under William the Conqueror, defeated the Anglo-Saxon King Harold and took control of the kingdom, introducing many French words and customs. During the Middle Ages, England became one of the strongest nations in Europe. King Edward l was the first English King who conquered Scotland (to conquer - conquistar). Edward lll conquered Wales and Ireland. In 1509, King Henry VIII took the throne (trono - Game of Thrones). He brought in (introduced) Protestant reform and the Catholic Church lost control over England. He earned a lot of money from the reform and was able to get divorced (from Catherine of Aragon) Henry's daughter, Elizabeth l, was the first Queen of England. She defeated the Spanish fleet/armada and created the first English colonies in America. The English Civil War began in 1642. The parliament beat Charles l and England became a republic. Indeed, many people forget that England was briefly a republic, just like Spain! Oliver Cromwell became Lord Protector. The King was executed. On July 4th, 1776, 13 colonies declared independence from Britain. General George Washington broke the British army in 1783 and the US got its independance. Napoleon Bonaparte became Emperor of France in 1805 and declared war on Britain. Britain decisively beat the French at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, after various previous battles against them, including in Badajoz and Salamanca, Spain. Britain's forces were led by The Duke Of Wellington. As we pointed out in more detail in episode 52 of Aprender Inglés con Reza y Craig: (http://www.inglespodcast.com/2015/05/24/phrasal-verbs-with-up-england-britain-great-britain-and-the-uk-gerunds-and-infinitives-asking-for-directions-airc52/ ) All of Ireland used to be part of the United Kingdom (of Great Britain & Ireland) until 1922. Then the Republic of Ireland broke away while Northern Ireland remained in the UK. Thus, the historical love-hate relationship between GB and Ireland, whose histories are closely connected.

‘Would’ can mean soler. ‘Used to’ can mean soler also. So, how do you know when to use ‘would’ and when to use ‘used to’ when you speak about the past? We’re going to tell you in this week’s episode of……..Aprender Inglés con Reza y Craig. Las notas del episodio y más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles están en: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Shownotes and more podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Voice message from Miguel about when to use would and used to. Past episodes: ‘used to’, ‘be used to’ and ‘get used to’ in episode 6 - 31st Jan, 2014! ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2014/01/31/aprender-ingles-con-reza-y-craig-6/  ) ‘Could’ and ‘would’ episode 71 ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2015/10/04/go-and-come-could-and-would-reglas-para-leer-ingles-air71/  ) Pronunciation of ‘would’ in episode 36 ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2014/11/26/more-clauses-and-phrases-pronunciation-goodwoodwould-vocabulary-the-car-airc36/  ) We use used to and would for past habits. Things that we don't do now or that are not true now. I used to live in London. I used to work in an office and I would get the bus to work every day. What did you used to do in Belfast that you don't do now? We can use ‘used to’ and 'would' to talk about repeated past actions: When I was growing up in London I used to/would go to the park with my best friend and play football. We'd cycle to the local park and we used to meet up with other kids to play for a couple of hours before lunch. I used to want to stay longer, but Graham would always make sure that we were home in time for lunch. We can use ‘would’ to talk about repeated past actions. However, only ‘used to’ is possible when we talk about PAST STATES. I used to live in London (XI would live in London.X) I used to have a beard. (XI would have a beard.X) We can use the past simple in the same way as ‘used to’ and ‘would’ to talk about repeated past actions.

In this episode we're going to help you with your news vocabulary. Do you listen to the news? Are you confused with those long words they use on the BBC? We’ll help you understand them in this episode. Take your English to the next level with Mansión Inglés audio podcasts: http://www.inglespodcast.com/   Hi Reza and Craig , I´m Fancisco from El Ejido, Almeria and a long time fan . There is something that annoys me a lot and I´m wondering if other people feel the same . The thing that annoys me is the bad use of English e.g. gonna instead of going to, wanna instead of want to, (and the most annoying one that we hear in every song these days) ain´t instead of aren't or isn't. Does this annoy you or am I the only one? I am asking this because this is a subject that you haven´t yet covered in your podcasts. I would love if you could speak about this subject. Kind regards, Francisco Gutierrez. Cortado - cortau / cuñado - cunyau - people are lazy! Is it bad use or just different? What about written text messages? ‘Yeah’ instead of ‘yes’? Should language be fossilized or is it constantly evolving and changing? - should there be a committee to protect language? - language police?

Today you’ll learn some English expressions about the sea. First we havea an email from Becky Hello guys! Congrats for your podcasts, very useful!! I'm going straight to the point. I'm really very confused with the use of the apostrophe in this case: 80s - 80's - '80s - 80s' I wanna get a tattoo with the following sentence: - 80s girl at heart- (meaning i'm a big fan of the eighties music, culture, fashion..everything, or that I should have be born in the eighties, feeling of belonging to another decade. And i wanna make sure I dont get it in the wrong way 'cause it'll stay forever on my skin. Could you please help me out here? Thanks a lot!! Becky Voice message from Juan from Jaen (the World Capital of Olive Oil - known by locals as liquid gold.) Comment on the blog from Roberto about episode 141 when we spoke about “Go to hell!” / “Get lost!” / “Get out of here!” - ¡Vete al carajo! “From my point of view, the real meaning of the expression "Vete al carajo" comes from the navy, where "carajo" is that small basket at the top of a main mast. I think, "Crow's nest" is a suitable word for that place in English. Just to add another meaning of the Spanish word "carajo" Not a good place to be for sure! Cheers, Roberto” I think they used to send out crows to find land. (crow - cuervo) Thanks also to Marcelo Fernandez who sent an explanation and a picture of a crow’s nest on a ship. It’s in the show notes. Other nautical expressions: It’ll be smooth sailing from here on (also ‘plain sailing’) - easy progress. No big waves or rough sea. Rock the boat - to do or say something that will upset people or cause trouble. Don’t rock the boat / Don’t make waves. Like ships that pass in the night - people who meet for a brief but intense moment and then part, never to see each other again. Has that ever happened to you? That ship has sailed - an opportunity that has passed or a situation that can no longer be changed. - You've missed the boat. "three sheets to the wind" - someone who has had too much to drink. It comes from a term that originally described a ship in a complete mess, with its sails flapping and moving around in the wind. "Taking the wind out of someone's sails" means beating them in an argument, or making them feel less confident in their actions. Originally, the term referred to a naval maneuver. One ship would pass close to its opponent and block its access to the wind. - very useful tactic in battle. Between the devil and the deep blue sea (between a rock and a hard place) - entre la espada y la pared - When you face a dilemma. - Going to the dentist - if you go you suffer, and if you don't go you suffer! "knowing the ropes," - someone is competent at what they do. The statement, printed on a seaman's discharge, indicated that he knew the main uses of the ropes on a ship. Yet rather than indicating that the sailor was a master, the phrase meant that he was a novice who only knew the basics of sailing. Not the only fish in the sea / There are plenty of fish in the sea. (not the only pebble on the beach). Plenty of other suitable people, especially for a romantic relationship. ...and now it's your turn to practise your English.

Are you aware that you only have 90 seconds to speak (XAre you conscious that….X) Conscious suggests being generally aware of the world around you. Aware is more specific, you are aware of certain situations or facts. - Are you aware how important this podcast is? Consciousness comes from one or some of the five senses. It’s a state (subconscious, unconscious - not awake, passed out - desmayado/a, inconsciente) Awareness has more to do with the mind (self-awareness) - it’s the knowledge that something exists somewhere: Send us an email with a comment or question to craig@inglespodcast.com or belfastreza@gmail.com.

In this episode we give Eugeni more feedback on his pronunciation and answer more of your comments and questions. This is Aprender Inglés on Reza y Craig Las notas del episodio y más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles están en: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Shownotes and more podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/  Comment on the blog from Mar Hi guys and congratulations for your great podcast. The correct word to translate "milestone" is "hito". This is a word we usually use for business purposes: e.g. Hemos cumplido los principales hitos del proyecto. We don't use "escalón" for that meaning. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Mar “Moving to Spain was a milestone in my life.” What were some of the milestones in your life? Voice message from Edgar Ubaldo from Mexico about the wall that Trump wants to build between the US and Mexico. Edgar says that he’s from "the place in the middle of the moon" (that's the meaning of Mexico according to some) This is my opinion about immigration and the wall. I forgot to tell that never shall we pay that chingado muro! (we shall never pay - word order) He also apologises for eating popcorn during his recording! Excellent English and wonderful pronunciation! I didn’t know that there were ex-pat communities of North Americans and Europeans in Mexico. How dangerous is Mexico? ‘Prevent this from happening’ Please send us more messages - with popcorn! An email from Javier from Tolosa who sent us a wonderful system for recording, learning and revising vocabulary. “Hi Craig and Reza, how are you? This is Javier González from Tolosa, I would like to share with you and with all your community one good practice that I use to improve my vocabulary. Since I am very absent-minded, I have created this database in access to put the words I want to learn. I explain all the rules of this application in the attached pdf. I will send you too the database (empty) and a sample of the recorder.” I couldn’t open the Microsoft Access file, but there were some nice examples in a pdf. In Javier’s system, you write the word or words you want to learn, the translation, the word family (noun, adverb, adjective etc), the sound (audio file) and example sentences. Example: settle down - phrasal verb - establecerse, sentar cabeza - “I nearly got married, but I wasn’t ready to settle down.” There is an option to review by double clicking in the “translation” field and then you can write the sentences. You can print out lists from the database. Javier agreed to let us share his email address if you want to contact Javier: jabiergonzalez@yahoo.es For learning vocabulary on your phone, I recommend the memrise app: https://www.memrise.com/ Which apps and methods are you using to learn, revise and remember vocabulary? Audio message from Eugeni from Barcelona “Let’s get down to business.” - to begin to get serious; to begin to negotiate or conduct business. “All right, everyone. Let's get down to business. There has been enough chitchat.” to begin seriously doing what you need to do Is Eugeni pronouncing the diphthong correctly in chair, bare, pair, there, parents, where, I don’t care? Bird, flirt, shirt, skirt, nurse, first - this sound is a long schwa. Yes, you pronounce it well.
