Hi Tim!
I started to study english last week with your podcasts and I’m learning very much!
“I outdid myself in my job today and now I’m learning a little english to finish my day.”
não sei se está correta minha frase, but I’m study hard to be better!
Se você puder, em algum podcast, ensinar o uso do (Where, Were, We’re) pois tem praticamente a mesma pronuncia, dai confunde na hora de aprender. Abraços, e continue seus podcasts, são muito bons!

The turtle outdid itself when he won the race with the hare

..

Hi Tim..can I use it in this context?

  Sure, that’s fine, Renata. I guess you could even say “himself” since the turtle is “personified”.

  Good for you! It’s great to have a clean house – especially when I’m not the one cleaning! 😀

Gee, Tim! You have outdone yourself in these podcasts lately.
That’s a joke because you have outdone yourself for a long time.
Thanks.

Hi Tim,
Talking about Christmas, can you explain the following words and expressões:

Holly, mulled wine, Boxing Day, mince pie and mistletoe? Thanks

  Good idea, Dori. Maybe we can do a podcast on those!
