Great intervention ! I was wondering what embezzling means ! And followed a great explanation !

[@bbclearningenglish]

Thanks... now try and practise using it!

[@andersonrossi1981]

As aways BBC rocks! That was a dramatically funny lesson, by the way. Two nuns stealing money from a school... it's a theme for a movie in Hollywood!

[@bbclearningenglish]

So, who would you cast in the film?

[@andersonrossi1981]

@@bbclearningenglish I would certainly cast Whoopi Goldberg in the main role, Jim Carrey and Tisha Campbell-Martin. It'd astonishing!

Well done Catherine for poking fun at Tom about his second definition of 'unruly'. You are definitely not unruly. 😄

[@user-pg9zu2eh6u]

hello,I have two questions: 3:47,Tom say "collect money for (?teritifun???)" what is the word in the blank? and in 6:00 what Catherine said about her unruly hair? I did not hear it clearly ^^

[@bbclearningenglish]

Hi! @3:47 Tom says 'collect money for a charity fund' - Your guess wasn't too bad! @6.00 Catherine says her hair is unruly - 'it has a mind of its own'. We hope this satisfies your curiosity! Thank you for your comment!

[@user-pg9zu2eh6u]

@@bbclearningenglish Thanks for your generous help，one of my guesses was "charity fund",but I am not sure……By the way,I love this amazing program！

[@SangNguyen-kt4td]

By the way can u help with 3:40 they were rackling it???

[@user-pg9zu2eh6u]

@@SangNguyen-kt4td I thought she said"with big buckets ,they are rattling it with charity label on there "

[@abdullahylmaz4800]

I think it was a bit unruly of Tom to interrupt Catherine occasionally 😂😂

[@SangNguyen-kt4td]

Can i offer an idea? U may dont have engsub but can u have english auto- generated? Cz i can hear almost the news but there are some few words i cant so can u have it? Hope to see ur reply! Tks

Our chief has set fund, which we raise by collecting 100 soms per person every month in order to use them for different entertainments. Before going somewhere we should decide the place together. Obviously it was inevitable we started arguing, the more people are there, the more opinions they have. Yet my chief believes that this situation cannot be unruly.

Happy new year BBC learning English 🎄💞🌿 🐰 The two nuns who stole the funds that were raised over Christmas. They were arrested last week. 🐰 Almost all boys have unruly behaviours when they are young. 🐰 Our relationship is going to be inevitable. I can't stomach his behaviours with me.

[@user-uu4rx6ww2k]

I think those review is really good to learning english and new words and expression. It's really helpful for me, but I just want to ask if they could talk more slow. I'm living in Asia, it's pretty hard to listen what they are saying....😂

[@prokingboss2701]

Nuns,why would they do that

[@halojames7778]

The Nun movie part 2 will be The Two Nuns. LOL

[@bbclearningenglish]

What would happen in the film?

[@andreasdabukke]

OMG... Where is the subtitle? I'm not an english man you know. Can you be tolerant?

🕹️ Did you know what happened? Dave stole the funds that the people raised for cancer hospital. 🕹️ Kiro has many unruly behaviours, he doesn't care about any advice. 🕹️ I think he isn't serious in our relationship, we inevitably should break up.

[@brookeggleston9314]

*Not* nuns; *sisters.* There *is* a difference!

[@bbclearningenglish]

Yes, there is a difference between sisters and nuns. However, in everyday British English, the terms are often used interchangeably.

this is funny.Nuns like gambling😂
