Descripción

Slow summer mornings have a rhythm of their own, and today Sarah and Mike wander through theirs out loud. You'll hear about a fan that clicks with a piece of blue tape on one blade, dew sparkling on the grass, and the warm smell of bread drifting from a corner bakery down the street. There's even a playful little argument about who has the better morning routine, so you can pick up natural back-and-forth English along the way. This one sits comfortably at B1, so relax, follow the pictures, and let the new words settle in. Try describing your own morning in three sentences after you watch, and slip in one present continuous action. 💡 Tip: Try describing your morning today in three sentences, and use one present continuous action. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 Introduction 1:02 Talk About Summer Mornings in English 1:42 Waking Up and Early Morning Sounds 4:16 Coffee, Porch and Present Tenses 7:02 The Street Wakes Up and Neighbour Habits 12:31 Speaking Practice 16:47 Vocabulary Review and Next Episode 📚 Vocabulary in this episode • faint: weak, soft, hard to notice • linger: stay a little longer than expected • glance: a quick short look • rinse: wash with just water • barefoot: with no shoes or socks • dew: tiny water drops on grass in the morning • stroll: a slow, relaxed walk • haze: soft cloudy air, not fog or smoke • errand: a small quick job outside the house • doze: sleep lightly for a short time • settle: get comfortable in one place • drift: move slowly with no direction Pour yourself something warm, get comfy, and enjoy learning with us. 🔔 Subscribe for a new slow-English episode every week. #EverydayEnglish #B1English #EnglishListening #SummerMornings #EnglishVocabulary #LearnEnglish #SlowEnglish #EnglishPodcast #ESL #EverydayEnglishAcademy
