Episode description

E329: 🎙️ Hello and welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast. My name is Anna, and you're listening to Week 38, Day 4 of Your English Five a Day. This series is focused on your vocabulary expansion. So, stick around as we dive deep into five items of vocabulary before bringing them all together in a little story.

🤷🏿‍♂️ First, we have two idioms, "to put your mind to something" and "beats me". Our third item is the verb "shrug", then we have the noun "paragon". Lastly, we dive into the phrasal verb "iron out".

🛠️ Tune in for some pronunciation practice and a quick quiz to encourage you to recap the words we've covered. In today's story section, Dave and Harry, self-proclaimed DIY enthusiasts, attempt to fix a mysterious leak in their mum's basement. Despite their confidence, their efforts result in a flooded cellar. Have you ever caused more damage than you intended while trying to fix something?
