About this episode

The verb “take” is very common in English and it’s used in many ways. One of the expressions is to “take a look.” Here are some examples:

1) “Doctor, please take a look at this X-ray.”

2) He took one look at the snake and said, “It’s a Burmese Python.”

3) “We need to take a look around your apartment,” said the policeman.

4) She took one look at my hand and said, “That’s a nasty cut. You’re going to need some stitches.”

5) My professor said he would take a look at my essay later.

To get the most benefit from this podcast, practice it once or twice, then put it away for a day or two--and then practice it again. If you can, make a recording of yourself saying these sentences and compare your pronunciation with mine. Repeated listening and speaking is the key.
