aussie english — 20 English Idioms To Transcribe

Transcript کامل قسمت

G'day, you mob, and welcome to Aussie English.

I am your host, Pete, and my objective here is to teach you guys the English spoken down under.

So, whether you want to sound like a fair dinkum Aussie or you just want to understand what the flipping hell we're on about when we're having a yarn, you've come to the right place.

So, sit back, grab a cuppa and enjoy Aussie English.

Let's go.

G'day, you mob.

Pete here.

Welcome to this episode of Aussie English, the number one place for anyone and everyone wanting to learn Australian English.

Today's episode is going to include 20 idioms in 20 sentences.

So, the goal today is for me to read out these sentences.

and for you to transcribe each sentence.

So, try and write down what you think you hear and then you can check your answers in the free downloadable PDF worksheet for this episode.

And you'll also be able to use it as a pronunciation listen and repeat episode if you want as well.

So, you can kill two birds with one stone.

You can try and transcribe and you can also try and listen and repeat.

and work on your Australian English.

Now, remember, you can pause, you can rewind, you can repeat as many times as you would like.

So, if you don't get it the first or second time, just go back and give it another burl, give it another try.

So, yeah, grab the free worksheet, the PDF worksheet, print it out, use it on your computer.

There'll be space for you to write out each of the 20 sentences, and then there'll be the answers at the bottom, followed by a glossary of all of the interesting

expressions that are included, so you can learn all of those via the glossary.

You'll also be able to get a full transcript for today's episode if you're a Premium Podcast member, where you can listen and read all of the words that I say for this entire episode.

And members of the Premium Podcast will also get a bonus episode that goes with today's episode, where I go through each idiom one by one,

defining each of them.

And then I think I've included three sentences for each of these idioms, example sentences.

So, instead of reading the idioms in the worksheet, if you want to become a premium podcast member, you will be able to just listen to the episode and learn all of them on the go.

And remember, you can become a premium podcast member at aussieenglish.com.au forward slash podcast, and you'll get access to, I think we're up to nearly

1,300 episodes.

I really should look this up ahead of time.

I don't even know what number we're up to, guys.

I know it's above 1,200 episodes.

I think we're getting close to 1,300, but yeah, there's over a thousand that have transcriptions on there.

So, yeah.

Anyway, go check that out.

AussieEnglish.com.au forward slash podcast.

All right.

Grab the worksheet, download it, print it out, and let's dig into today's episode.

So, I'm going to read out each of these sentences twice.

I'll do it first quickly as I would do it naturally, as I would speak these words, these phrases just with connected speech, everything like that.

And then the second time I will do it more slowly to give you a better chance of hearing each of the individual words.

Okay.

So, you ready to rock?

Let's go.

All right, so that's all 20 sentences, mate.

There was definitely some advanced vocab and expressions in there, so you'll have to let me know how you went.

And remember, if you have trouble, just go back, listen multiple times.

You can also download the PDF, the free PDF, look at the expressions that are all used so that you can understand them, get an idea of what they mean, and then go back and do the episode again, you know.

So, don't feel bad about having to do that if you need to go back multiple times.

Last few things.

Remember, the worksheet's free for today's episode.

It's got the answers.

It's got space for you to write down what you hear on blank lines in that PDF worksheet.

And there's a vocab glossary defining each of the expressions at the end.

each of the different idioms, and I give you three example sentences for each of them.
