Beth
Hi, Neil. How are you?
Neil
I'm very well, thank you. What are we talking about today?
Beth
Well, today's episode is all about family. We’ll be talking about who is in our families and comparing them.
Neil
OK, great. So, what do we mean when we say comparing our families, Beth?
Beth
Well, when we compare two things, we look at them and see if they are the same or different and we can compare things in different ways, but we often do it with adjectives.
Neil
OK, let's start the conversation.
Beth
So, Neil, how big is your family?
Neil
It’s probably average, really. I have one sister, but she has three kids and I have two kids. So, when we get together with my parents, there… there are a few of us. It's not... It's not tiny. It's not huge.
Beth
OK, yeah. I think my family is definitely smaller than yours because I don't have any brothers or sisters. I am an only child. So, when I get together with my family it's very small because I also only have one cousin and she's an only child as well. So my family's tiny!
Neil
OK. And what is your family like? It's small, but what's it like?
Beth
It is small, but we're very close. So, we see each other quite often. We are a bit silly. We like to go out and have food and play games and we can be quite loud, even though there aren't many of us.
Neil
OK, it sounds like you get on well with your family. Is that right?
Beth
Yeah, definitely. I love spending time with my cousin and she has two children.
What about you? Do you get on well with your sister?
Neil
Yes, I get on well with my sister. We don't see each other very often because we don't live in the same place. But when we see each other, we have a nice time. We catch up and chat.
So, Beth, we have used the expression get on well with someone. What does that mean?
Beth
Well, that means that you have a good relationship with them. So, if you get on well with your sister, it means when you're together you're happy, you're not fighting. It's easy to have good conversation. You don't really have any arguments. Maybe when you were a child, you didn't get on well with your sister. I don't know.
Neil
Yes, I think now that we're grown-ups it's easier to get on well with your siblings. When… When…When I was a kid, maybe I was a bit mean to her.
Beth
Oh dear!
So, Neil, your sister has three children.
Neil
Yeah.
Beth
What are the ages of them?
Neil
Well, for a start, they’re all boys!
Beth
OK. Oh, my gosh. That sounds very difficult!
Neil
And the oldest one is 17 and he has just done his driving test. It’s difficult to believe because, he's the oldest, he's always been the oldest, but now he’s almost an adult.
Beth
And is he the oldest including your children?
Neil
Yeah.
So out of all the kids he’s the oldest?
Neil
He is, yeah.
Beth
So, in my family, my cousin has two children and they are five and two.
Neil
Ah! Little ones.
Beth
Yeah. They are the youngest in the family. But I was the youngest in my family until they came along and I am 32! So, I was used to being the youngest, but I'm not the youngest anymore, now we've got little ones.
Neil
Oh well! Are you sad?
Beth
No, I’m OK.
Neil
OK, let's quickly recap the vocabulary we learned in this conversation.
Beth
We learnt compare which means to look at two things to see if they are the same or different.
Neil
Bigger and smaller, which are ways to compare the size of something.
Beth
Youngest and oldest which are ways to talk about the age of someone or something.
Neil
And we looked at get on well with someone, which means to have a good relationship with them.
Beth

Next time, we'll talk about food and some of our favourite meals to eat.
Beth

Welcome to Real Easy English from BBC Learning English. I'm Beth.
Neil
And I'm Neil. In this podcast, we have a real conversation in easy English.
Beth
If you want to read along, you can visit our website:
Hi, Neil.
Neil
Hi Beth. How are you?
Beth
I'm very good, thank you. How are you?
Neil
I'm pretty good, yes.
Beth
Good, good. What are we talking about today?
Neil
Well, today we are talking about food. In particular, we'll talk about our favourite foods and how often we eat them.
Beth
What an amazing topic. I have so much to say about food. But you said how often. What do we mean by how often we eat something?
Neil
Good question! How often means how many times we eat our favourite food. So we might eat them every week, every day, or if we really like a food, we might eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner - every meal!
Beth
So, Neil, what is your favourite food?
Neil
Well, that's a really difficult question. But I really like fish.
Beth
Ah, me too! I was going to say that! But actually, I really love seafood. So, I think I’d say any kind of dish with seafood in it I absolutely love.
Neil
So,how often do you eat seafood, Beth?
Beth
Well, not very often, actually. I have it when I go on holiday and I have it in restaurants sometimes, but I don't really cook seafood at home. What about you?How often do you have fish?
Neil
Oh, probably a few times a week.
Beth
Really!?
Neil
Maybe, yeah. Yeah. We eat a lot of fish.
Beth
We sometimes have fish at home. I normally have it once or twice a week.
Neil
Right.
Beth
But I never have seafood at home, actually.
Neil
Yeah, OK. So what is your least favourite food?
Beth
Ooh… I absolutely hate baked beans!
Neil
You hate baked beans!?
Beth
I think they're disgusting! I can't even… the smell of them even makes me feel a bit sick.
Neil
Oh, OK.
Beth
So we've talked about the foods that we really like and the foods we don't like. But in a general week, what do you normally cook?
Neil
Oftenwe'll eat Indian curries, but also Italian pasta dishes or Spanish dishes and then sometimes more traditional British roast dinner kind of thing.
Beth
Yeah. I think,generally, we have the same at home. Like, we eat a lot of food from different countries. But I have to say I usually cook quite a lot of pasta and quite a lot of rice at home in general. Just because they cook really quickly.
Neil
So, Beth. You generally eat rice and pasta dishes. What does that mean? Generally?
Beth
Well, we use generally and usually and normally for habits or things that we do a lot. So, for example, if I generally cook pasta or rice, that means maybe five times out of the seven in a week, I would say.
Neil
OK, so that’s most of the time. If we use sometimes we mean that we'd do it less than generally.
Beth
Yeah,sometimes might be two or three times a week. I guess it depends on what you're talking about. But for example, with me I sometimes cook fish. Like I said I have it maybe twice a week. So I would say that’s sometimes.
Neil
Beth, you said you hate baked beans. So do you ever eat baked beans?
Beth
Never. No, I can't stand them. So I never, ever have baked beans.
Neil
Well,never is something that we don't do. We just don't ever do it.
I can’t believe you don't like baked beans. Beans on toast is a classic!
Beth
It is. But, no. Not for me. Let's quickly recap the vocabulary we learnt during the conversation.
We learnt often which means we do something a lot. And we learnt how often, which we use to ask someone how many times they do something.
Neil
Usually,normally, and generally, which are all ways to talk about things we do a lot.
Beth
Sometimes, which we can use to talk about things we do, but not always or often.
Neil
And never to talk about things we don't do like eat beans, Beth.
Веth
Yes, just like I never eat baked beans. Ugh, horrible!

Georgie
Hello! Welcome to Real Easy English from BBC Learning English. I'm Georgie.
Neil
And I’m Neil. We're here to help you improve your English with a real conversation in easy English.
Georgie
If you want to read along, you can find a text version of this podcast at bbclearningenglish.com.
Right, let's start the show. How are you today, Neil?
Neil
I'm very well, thank you, Georgie. What are we talking about in this episode?
Georgie
Today is all about friends. We'll talk a bit about our friends and why they are important.
Neil
Great, let's get started.
Georgie
So, Neil, do you have a lot of friends?
Neil
Yes, I do have quite a few friends. How about you?
Georgie
Yes, I also have quite a lot of friends. I've lived in different places, so I have made friends in lots of different areas and times of my life.
Neil
So, Georgie, you said that you have lived in lots of places, and I know you have lived in Spain. So, do you have lots of friends in Spain?
Georgie
Yes, I have a few friends in Spain. But now that I live in London, it's quite difficult to stay in touch with them. But, actually, one of them is coming to visit this weekend.
Neil
Ah! So you try to keep in touch with some of your friends. That means to keep contact with them, to make sure that you stay friends by speaking to them.
Georgie
Yes, exactly. And if you have a lot of friends, it can be difficult to stay in touch with so many.
What do you like to do with your friends, Neil?
Neil
Well, I like to talk to them, mainly. So, I like to meet them maybe in a pub or restaurant, or we go to a sports match sometimes and we... and we talk there and have a good time.
Georgie
That sounds nice.
Neil
How about you?
Georgie
Yes, I'm the same. During the week I think a nice plan is to go out for dinner with friends. At the weekends I like going for a walk or getting a coffee with friends.
Neil
You can do both of those at the same time!
Georgie
Yeah. That's right. Sometimes I meet friends, we get a coffee to take away and then go for a walk around the park.
Neil
And are you happy about the number of friends you have? Or would you like to have more or fewer?
Georgie
I always like making new friends. If you start a new hobby or you move to a different place there are always more people and new people to meet. I like making friends. What about you?
Neil
Yes, but I like to see my old friends and if I make new friends, I know it's something that happens slowly and that's OK.
Now we have used this word friends a lot, but there are other words for friends too aren't there?
Georgie
Yes. One is mate. I use mate a lot. We also use, pal. So sometimes I refer to my friends that are girls as gal pals.
Neil
Gal pals. That's a nice expression.
Georgie
So, Neil, why are friends important to you?
Neil
Ah, yes, good question! Friends are important I think because you can be yourself with your friends. You don't have to pretend if they're good friends because they know you as you are. And that's not the same everywhere you go in life.
Georgie
Yep, that's true!
Neil
Let's recap the language we learned during the conversation.
Georgie
We learned mates and pals, which are other words for friends.
Neil
We heard keep in touch with, which means see or speak to someone regularly. We also say stay in touch.
Georgie
And a few, which means more than two, but not many. So I have a few friends in Spain, but not many.
Neil
Thanks for listening to Real Easy English. Visit our website for more activities and courses to help you with your English: bbclearningenglish.com.
Georgie
Next time, we'll talk about holidays and places we would like to go.
Neil
See you then, goodbye.

🙂 Нил
So, Beth, you said that you have worked at the BBC since 2021.
Итак, Бет, ты сказала, что работаешь в BBC с 2021 года.
Since… What does it mean when we use since?
Что означает "с" в этом контексте?
🙂 Бет
Well, we use since followed by a date or a point in time and we use it to talk about when something started.
Мы используем "с" перед датой или моментом времени, чтобы говорить о том, когда что-то началось.
But also it's something that is still true.
Но это также что-то, что все еще верно.
So I have been here since 2021 and I still work here now.
Я здесь с 2021 года, и я все еще работаю здесь сейчас.
So it's still true.
Так что это все еще верно.
🙂 Нил
Yeah, and that's different to for, isn't it?
Да, и это отличается от "на протяжении", не так ли?
When you say I've worked here for twenty years.
Когда ты говоришь, что работал здесь на протяжении двадцати лет.
We're talking about the length of time.
Мы говорим о длительности времени.
🙂 Бет
Exactly.
Точно.
And that can be something that is still true.
И это может быть чем-то, что все еще верно.
For example, you've worked here for twenty years and you still work here now,
Например, ты работал здесь на протяжении двадцати лет и все еще работаешь здесь сейчас,
but it also could be something in the past.
но это также может быть что-то из прошлого.
So, for example, you said you worked in a fish and chip shop for a summer.
Так что, например, ты говорил, что работал в магазине рыбы и картофеля фри одно лето.
And that summer has a length of time, it has a start and an end.
И то лето имеет продолжительность времени, у него есть начало и конец .
🙂 Нил
So what is the funniest thing that's ever happened at work, Beth?
Что самое смешное, что когда-либо происходило на работе, Бет?
🙂 Бет
Well, when I was a teenager, I worked at a farm and sometimes the goats would escape.
Когда я была подростком, я работала на ферме, и иногда козы убегали.
So I had to run after baby goats and I would have to pick them up and put them back.
Так что мне приходилось бегать за козлятами, поднимать их и возвращать обратно.
But I got a little cuddle with a baby goat.
Но мне удалось немного обняться с козленком.
So it was funny, but it was also very nice.
Это было смешно, но также очень приятно.
🙂 Нил
Ah, that's a nice thing to do in your job!
Ах, это хорошая вещь, которую можно делать на работе!
Right, let's recap the words we've learnt today.
Итак, давайте подведем итоги слов, которые мы выучили сегодня.
We had career which means the jobs we've had over time.
Мы узнали о карьере, что означает все работы, которые у нас были со временем.
🙂 Бет
Since - which we use to talk about the time when something started.
"С" — которое мы используем, чтобы говорить о времени, когда что-то началось.
🙂 Нил
For - which we can use to talk about a length of time.
"На протяжении" — которое мы можем использовать, чтобы говорить о длине времени.
For example, I've worked at the BBC for 20 years.
Например, я работал в BBC на протяжении 20 лет.
