There are plenty of other videos about coffee including our 6 Minute English show called ‘Does recycling coffee cups make a difference?’.kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYrLaIyJgN1_bLc

Hello bbc ! Excuse for being intrusive But posting videos on weekly basis is just getting somewhat harsh bczz we r not native speakers to catch up with ur videos every week ! I hope u get my idea I just mean not every week plzzz

[@BrainstormFRW]

The main difference in the pronunciation of Catherine and Georgina for the word 'plant' is /plænt/ and /pla:nt/. But it isn't clear which is which. They needed to have settled a bit longer on that point to clear what the difference was.

i dont see transcript

[@rottentwapple]

9:09 can someone tell me the difference between these two pronunciations? I just can’t hear the difference.

[@dioclecio]

Hi! It seems that the difference is on the way Catherine and Georgina pronounce the word "based". Georgina pronounces it like: /beɪst/; although Catherine pronounces the same word like: /beɪzd/. I hope that helps.

Every year, my friends and I throw a festive occasion. My best friend usually makes a cake that is crammed with fruits and nuts as he has a dab hand at cooking scrumptious cakes. However, he is vegetarian and prefer to eat plant-based food, while I have a sweet tooth and cannot stop myself from biscuits that are overloaded with chocolate.
