About this episode
E368: 🎙️ Welcome to the English Like a Native Podcast with me, your host, Anna! This is Week 45, Day 3 of Your English Five a Day, and we are laser-focused on boosting your active vocabulary and enhancing your English listening skills every weekday, from Monday to Friday.
🐸 Today's list kicks off with the noun "rumble". Then, we explore the idiom "a frog in your throat" and we have a look at another noun, "caper". After that, we delve into another meaning of the phrasal verb "step something up" before finishing the list with the adjective "brutal".
🎢 After some quick pronunciation practice and a recap to test your memory, we visit Sam in today's story, a security guard at a theme park where a lost girl ends up asking him for help. Sam steps things up, successfully reuniting her with her mother, giving a brutal reminder of the importance of staying close in crowds.
