#166 Popular words in English added to the dictionary
Hi, everyone! I am Georgiana, your English teacher and founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com [http://speakenglishpodcast.com/]. My mission is to help you speak English fluently. Today we are going to look at some trendy words. These words have been added to the dictionary in the last decade. And with a mini-story, you are going to improve your fluency. I'll tell you a story while asking you many questions that you have to answer right away. It's like talking to another person in English. Please, visitSpeakEnglishPodcast.com [http://speakenglishpodcast.com/]to get the transcript of today's episode. And follow me onFacebook [https://www.facebook.com/SpeakEnglishPodcast],Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/speakenglishpodcast/],TikTok [https://www.tiktok.com/@speakenglishpodcast],YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/c/speakenglishpodcast], etc. Let's get started! As I said today, we will look at some words added to the dictionary in the last decade. These are trendy words, and I'm sure most of them sound familiar to you. Let's start with the first word: 1. Jeggings The word was introduced into the dictionary in 2015. Jeggings are a blend of jeans and leggings. When they first came out, I was fascinated by these pants. They are the most comfortable thing ever in my opinion, and yet they look so much like jeans. 2. YouTuber The term was introduced into the dictionary in 2016. YouTube appeared in 2005 and since then, millions of people have been uploading videos on the platform on a regular basis. I started creating weekly videos in 2012, but it wasn't until 2016 that the word was added to the dictionary. According to the Oxford Dictionary, a YouTuber is a person who uploads, produces, or appears in videos on YouTube. 3. LOL The word was introduced into the dictionary in 2011. Though this word is still popular, we have actually been using it for many years. So what's LOL? It's an abbreviation of laughing out loud or laugh out loud. The word abbreviation means a shortened form of a word or phrase. 4. Facebook The term was introduced into the dictionary in 2018. Did you know that we have used Facebook so many times that the verb to facebook has emerged? So “to facebook” means to spend time using the social media website or app Facebook. 5. Skype The word was introduced into the dictionary in 2014. Before other apps like Zoom or FaceTime existed, Skype was the most popular app on the Internet for video calls. According to the Oxford Dictionary, to skype means to have a spoken conversation with (someone) over the Internet using Skype, typically also viewing by webcam.

#165 Easter in the USA -ESL
Hi, everybody! I am Georgiana, your English teacher and founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com [https://speakenglishpodcast.com/]. My mission is to help you speak English fluently. Today I'll talk about something more festive. I'll talk aboutEaster [https://speakenglishpodcast.com/how-americans-celebrate-easter-in-the-usa-rep/] and how Americans celebrate this holiday. And with a fun mini-story, you'll improve your English fluency by answering many questions in English. Before we get started, I just wanted to say hi if you are new here. And if you are a long-time listener, I want to thank you for supporting this show by sharing it with your friends and family. Ok, let’s start! WheneverEaster [https://speakenglishpodcast.com/easter-in-the-united_states-esl/]comes, everywhere I go, I see chocolate eggs and Easter bunny cakes. But what do we celebrate on Easter? Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The New Testament describes the resurrection occurring on the third day after his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans on Calvary around 30 AD. Americans spend this holiday with friends and family, and some attend special services held in churches on Easter. And while not all Americans observe the holiday from a spiritual point of view, Easter is certainly one of the most celebrated holidays in the States. And if there's one thing people love doing during the holidays, it's eating. Let's take a look at the 3 most popular dishes at Easter. Hot Cross Buns These are typical Easter food. It is a sweet bread seasoned with nutmeg, flavored with currants and apricots, and covered with a lemon glaze. Stuffed Leg of Lamb Americans also enjoy a stuffed leg of lamb. A delicious recipe, yet very easy to make. With parsley, garlic, bacon, and red wine. Honey Butter Ham Another very representative dish for this holiday is the honey butter ham. This recipe is simple and is prepared in the oven or a slow cooker. And how about the colored eggs and the Easter Bunny tradition? Typically, people start dying hard-boiled eggs in a variety of colors the night before Easter Sunday. These eggs are left for the Easter Bunny on Saturday night. The Bunny comes and hides them all over the house. So when the children wake up on Easter Sunday, they get excited looking for the eggs and the Easter baskets filled with goodies. The idea of the Easter Bunny giving candy and eggs is said to have originated in Germany during the Middle Ages. Pennsylvania Dutch settlers brought the rabbit to the United States in the 18th century. Another fun fact about the Easter holiday is that Easter and Halloween often compete for the highest candy sales every year. In some years, Americans buy more candy the week before Easter than the week before Halloween. How interesting. Right?

#164 Different Types of Doctors in English - part2
Hi, everybody! I am Georgiana, your English teacher and founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com [http://speakenglishpodcast.com/]. My mission is to help you speak English fluently. This week we are going to continue talking about the different types of doctors in English. And with a fun mini-story, you will effectively improve your English fluency. Before we get started, make sure you get the transcript on my website SpeakEnglishPodcast.com/podcast Ok, let's start! Last week we started talking about the different types of doctors in English. We saw that a general practitioner or family doctor treats common health problems. We also learned that an optometrist is an eye doctor and that a dentist treats teeth and gums' problems. Now let's continue learning the different types of doctors in English. 1) When we have skin, hair, or nail-related problems, we visit a dermatologist. If you have nasty red rashes on your body, quickly make an appointment with a dermatologist. So a dermatologist is a doctor who treats problems related to skin, nails, and hair. Nowadays, more and more people choose to see a dermatologist whenever they have a skin condition such as acne, sensitive skin, a rash, etc. It is always better to trust a specialist and not to experiment on our skin. 2) If you have children, you should take them to a pediatrician. A pediatrician's office is always very colorful and a very child-friendly environment. Therefore, pediatricians are physicians who take care of infants, toddlers, children, and teenagers. 3) What if you have a broken heart? Do you make an appointment to see a cardiologist? Unfortunately, a cardiologist can't fix your broken heart. But they will cure any cardiovascular disease. A cardiologist is a heart doctor. 4) And if you have an accident, you must see an orthopedic surgeon. An orthopedic surgeon deals with the skeletal system. Any broken leg or broken bone or anything that's wrong with your skeletal system, an orthopedic surgeon is going to fix it for you. As people get older, they have many problems in their knees or their hands or even arthritis. So all of these things are taken care of by an orthopedic surgeon. 5) If you are a woman, you need to see a doctor who focuses on the female reproductive organs from time to time. We call this type of doctor a gynecologist. There is also the obstetrician who works in a particular area of gynecology that focuses on childbirth. 6) What if you are a man? Do you also go to see a gynecologist? No. No. Only women go to a gynecologist. Men should see a urologist. A urologist is a doctor who deals with urinary tract infections or urinary problems. A urologist deals with the male reproductive system or male reproductive organs. So if you have any problems with the urinary tract or the male reproductive system, you see a urologist. 7) There is another type of doctor called a neurologist. A neurologist is a doctor who studies and treats diseases of the nerves. While the doctor who performs surgery on the human brain is called a neurosurgeon. So a neurologist is a doctor who deals with any nerve-related problem. But if you have brain surgery, you go to a neurosurgeon. Well, these are the types of doctors or physicians we have here. There are a large number of doctors, so I've picked the most common ones. Read the transcript here: SpeakEnglishPodcast.com [https://speakenglishpodcast.com]
