About this episode
Hello, and welcome back to Practicing English. And today it's the 22nd of December. And we're getting close to Christmas Day. So I thought it would be nice to talk about Christmas and give you some relevant vocabulary for talking about the different things that we do at Christmas and the traditions.
This is definitely an English Christmas that I'm talking about. English or British and not American, which is probably somewhat different from the way that the English or British celebrate their Christmas. So I think I'll be making, really, references to my own childhood. Because now I live in Spain. And my Christmases are a little bit different. Even though I've tried to mirror the way we celebrated Christmas back in the UK. For audioscripts of this podcast, please go to: https://www.practisingenglish.com/podcast-71.htm
