Hi guys! I wouldn' t know what to do without your help for improving my vocabulary! Thank you a lot! But i was wondering if you can also provide me with an online dictionary for cheching the meaning of words...i'm used to read but i don't trust at 100% in bilingual dictionaries...thank you!

[@bbclearningenglish]

Hi martina meddi. It's a good idea to use an English dictionary. There are good ones around but unfortunately we can't recommend a particular product. Sorry.

[@brigittesaint-pe2604]

Hello both of you Very interesting topic. Smells very often bring me back to the past memories...as the French people say, they are like " la madeleine de Proust"

[@bbclearningenglish]

Interesting phrase! We've had to google it to learn what it means as we'd never heard it before. It's used to describe an object that has very fond or strong memories of the past?

[@brigittesaint-pe2604]

@@bbclearningenglish Any phenomenon that triggers an impression of reminiscence is called "Madeleine de Proust". It is taken from a book entitled "A la recherche du temps perdu" by Marcel Proust ( In search of lost time) ( start of previous century) in which he talked about the madeleines that his aunt made for him when he was young. Once, he looked at a madeleine and a lot of past memories given off from him, ...madeleine is a kind of cake

"powerful sensation"

[@letsplayroblox6062]

One day i passed the test what kind of smells i liked and it said a lot about me. Most of that information was absolutely wrong. I think everything in the world depend on the people. We can change our personality if we want. Also in my opinion horoscopes and smells have disinformation too

[@lamhongphan]

Thank you so much for cool video 😀😀😀 👌👌👌just my ability not good enough 🙆‍♀️

[@bbclearningenglish]

Hi lamhong phan. You are welcome. ☺️

[@lamhongphan]

BBC Learning English Thank you for your reply :). Hope you have a nice day!

[@lucijaguan4784]

Interesting. I wonder what a woody, mossy, structured smell smells like.

[@falahal-obeid2425]

The word resume has two pronunciation what are they and what do each mean thanks

[@hanialhussein5504]

I think the music bothers the learner. The learner needs to repeat the loop more than once and the sound of the music becomes very annoying.

[@muhammadtahirmehmood3421]

Also agreed.
