hi everybody this is mr. Duncan in England how are you today? are you okay?
I hope so are you happy? I really really hope so so here we are here we go it's
incredible we are now live on YouTube once again for a Sunday afternoon of
course there are some slight differences today you may have already noticed that
we are outside now can you believe I have spent all morning preparing today's
livestream and this morning the Sun was out everything was absolutely glorious
and can you believe it 10 minutes before my livestream started the clouds have
come across and the Sun has completely disappeared can you believe it it's
typical isn't it so here I am outside on the roof of my studio it is still a
rather nice day not too hot even though we've had lots
of sunshine this morning and everything is not too bad I hope you can hear me
okay because we are now outside and I hope everything is coming across clearly
I hope you can see me clearly even though the Sun has now gone in
fortunately I have my extra lights to light me up if you like something it
means you make it appear clear so it can be seen in the dark or of course if the
lighting is uneven so I hope you are okay by the way can I just first of all
say happy Mother's Day because it's Mother's Day today not here in the UK
because we celebrated Mother's Day a while ago but in other parts of the
world today it is Mother's Day so can I say a happy Mother's Day to those who
are celebrating Mother's Day and who are treating their mothers in an extra
special way today as a way of celebrating Mother's Day
and the world so today is Mother's Day and a very happy Mother's Day for those
who are watching also of course next weekend is a very special day here in
the UK maybe not where you are but in the UK it's a very special day next
weekend do you know why do you know why it's a special weekend I will tell you a
little bit later on now I am wearing my sunglasses because we did we did have
the Sun out earlier but unfortunately the Sun has now gone in so that's that's
a big problem so I'm wearing my sunglasses which means that I can't see

just say it is not mother's day here in the UK but it was Mother's Day here a
few weeks ago but today around the world in other countries not the UK it is
Mother's Day isn't that lovely so can i once again wish all of the mothers
around the world a happy Mother's Day
from Slovakia there are almost no clouds here
according to Crowell Crowell says there are no clouds here in Slovakia oh you
very lucky now we have a lot of clouds here today but the Sun is trying to
break through the clouds the Sun is trying its best to break through the
clouds having said that the weather here this morning was glorious there was
hardly any cloud but of course because I want to do my livestream outside
well yes Louie or Louie Louie guys Oh says it is the Royal Wedding next week
yes you are right it is the Royal Wedding it is next weekend let me just
find my piece of paper yes you are right next weekend it is the Royal Wedding
many people here in the UK will be watching and I'm sure quite a few people
around the world will also be watching the Royal Wedding of course taking place
between Prince Harry and Meghan Markel so that should be very interesting
will I be watching I don't think I will be I'm going to be honest with you I'm
not a big fan of weddings unless of course I'm invited if I'm invited then
I'm really really keen because quite often there is lots of food involved but
normally I I wouldn't watch a wedding on the television to be honest so I
probably won't be watching the Royal Wedding next week I know I'm going to
get complaints people are going to say mr. Duncan how could you not watch The
Royal Wedding what's wrong with you don't be such a spoilsport but no I'm
not by the way you can watch me on YouTube for those who are wondering
every Sunday from 2 p.m. and also Wednesday as well I am late and live
every Wednesday and that is from 10 p.m. both of these are UK time so don't
forget that I I will not be here for two hours today
because we have no mr. Steve mr. Steve is busy today rehearsing for his show
that he will be performing in about three weeks from now
so mr. Steve has a very busy month this month he is busy in May let's just say
having said that mr. Steve's mother is staying here at the moment she is
actually sitting reading her Sunday newspaper and eating a very nice
sandwich at the moment so mr. Steve's mother is sitting outside enjoying the
lovely weather here in the UK and I hope where you are the weather is okay as
well I really really do so next weekend the Royal Wedding and also it is
Mother's Day today if you want to say hello by the way to your mother for
today's special event you are more than welcome to do so so there you can see
behind me the view across the Shropshire landscape and there in distance the most
famous landmark in this area it is the Rican Hill Rican it is a very large hill
and to be honest I think today would be a very good day to be high up on a hill
higher than this even I mean I know that at the moment I'm quite high up but but
imagine the view from up there imagine the view from the top of that hill it's
pretty amazing so today we're asking lots of questions if you ever make a
mistake if you ever do something wrong if you ever find yourself in a situation
where you are incorrect do you ever admit do you ever own up so
do you ever admit to being wrong or do you ever admit or own up to making
mistake it is very hard for human beings to admit when they are wrong some people
feel quite proud of themselves they always believe that they are never wrong
and that they never make mistakes about anything however human beings are
fallible it's true so we can fail we can get things wrong
from time to time so if you make a mistake if you ever get something wrong
if you ever make an error do you admit to it
do you own up to your mistakes I know sometimes from time to time I
make mistakes sometimes during my live streams I might say something and maybe
it is incorrect by accident I say something that is not correct but I
don't mind if I am ever wrong about something if I ever make a mistake
I am always willing to admit I am always willing to own up to admit my mistakes
of course to err is human to forgive divine
that's a very well-known expression in English so the live chat is on and very
very busy let's have a look shall we let's see let's see if we can actually
see the live chat because I'm wearing my sunglasses I might take my sunglasses
off in a moment because I don't think I need them in fact I'm going to do that
now I'm going to take my sunglasses off just buy buy sunglasses and instead I'm
going to rare where my reading glasses where are they here they are I have come
prepared
prepared with my reading glasses yeah so now I can see the live chat very clearly
ts is here hello TS and a big hi to you and it's
nice to see you here on the live chat Colombia is watching has it says hello
and also mentioning the fact that it's Mother's Day yes thank you very much
yes you can light something up by setting fire to it that is very true
well done there chaddy says yes you can light something
by setting fire to it you can set fire to something or you can light something
such as a cigarette you might light a person's cigarette yes
do I smoke no I don't I don't smoke I don't have
any bad habits well okay not many not many habits that are bad to be honest
Louie yes you are right once again yes it is the royal wedding next week
Jamelia says I love your sunglasses and I like your t-shirt
do you like my t-shirt this is a brand new t-shirt it's new it's it's only a
few days old well okay I've had it just for a few days mr. Steve bought
this for me yes it's very stripey so mr. Steve last week bought this for me as a
surprise I didn't know he was going to buy a t-shirt for me but he he bought
one for me and I'm very pleased to be wearing it today just for a change
India is watching hello India nice to see you
Zen Allah Zen Allah says it is in the Ukraine Mother's Day as well so it would
appear that mother's day is being celebrated in many
places today and as a strange coincidence mr. Steve's mother is
staying with us at the moment sadly she is very shy
so sadly mr. Steve's mother won't be appearing today because she's very shy
just like me good morning mr. duncan carlo Silvera is
here and i hope you have a good day in Brazil this is my first time as well
Carlos I'm sure I've seen you here before

stream very good hello mr. Duncan from sunny
Turkey oh hello there I'm I'm a biomedical engineering student
that sounds very technical that sounds a very technical job indeed a very
technical thing to study and I have a lot of homework so I am trying to finish
that look the Sun has come out it's magic
it's almost too incredible let me just turn my camera down because maybe it
might be too bright there is that better I don't want to dazzle you with the
sunlight I hope to be here every class says Pedro well I should think so I
should think that you are here all the time every single lesson that I make
especially the live ones it took me three hours to set all of this up today
so all of the lights and the cameras and the sound everything it took me three
hours to set this livestream up no we won't be talking about the word set
today definitely not there isn't time it is my first time in your life
broadcasting mr. Duncan from Carlos oh I see
so you have watched my videos before but it's the first time that you've actually
watched me live ah I understand now I I understand you completely yes dog in
Chinese is goal so it's like shall goal shall goal and I think goo is brother
so show goo is little brother and Xiao goal is small dog did you watch
Eurovision I'm going to be honest with you I was
very busy last night entertaining mr. Steve's mother
so mr. Steve's mother is staying here so we didn't watch the Eurovision Song
Contest but I am going to watch it maybe tonight or tomorrow because we can watch
TV programs again later so I will watch it so please don't tell me don't tell me
who won because I don't want to know so please don't tell me who weren't I went
to find out for myself
hi there mr. Duncan I like the caricature of yourself you have put on
your thumbnail yes that particular drawing was made by one of my lovely
students so one of my students actually created that picture and also they made
one of mr. Steve as well for those wondering mr. Steve is not here sadly
today he is not joining us because he's busy with his rehearsal for a show that
he is appearing in if you listen carefully now and again you might hear a
very high pitch sound a very high sound like a bird and that sound is a baby
robin there are some baby robins nearby that are being fed by their parents so
now and again you might hear a little
and if you hear that sound that is actually a baby robin so there are quite
a few chicks around here being fed at the moment and also in the garden at the
back of my house there is a black bird nest so I'm feeling very very excited
about that because we have black birds nesting in the back garden and I can see
the parents every day very busily collecting worms and seeds and taking
them back to the nest so the nest is in my garden and I know
exactly where it is yes so I'm very excited about that
hello fellow di wires how are you doing how is your kitchen mr. Duncan ah of
course yes I am very busy in the kitchen this week I have been very busy in the
kitchen yes decorating the kitchen and here it is here is the wallpaper so here
is some of the wallpaper that I've put up in the kitchen there it is can you
see it so there is the wallpaper and you will be pleased to hear that I have
actually finished I finished the decorating it is now all
Dermott so I can put my paint roller away I don't have to have that in my
hand anymore yes you'll be pleased to hear that the decorating in the kitchen
is now finished it has been completed it is complete on Wednesday I will show you
some video clips so I will do some filming in my kitchen and you can have a
look at the new decor that's a great word by the way deck hall so decor just
relates to the appearance of something how something has been made to appear so
you could say the deck Hall is the color or the design of a room so the decor and
of course when you change the decor you do decorating so when you decorate a
room you create the deck or you create the visual environment in the room I
hope that helps you so yes I have finished my decorating it has been
finished and mr. Steve's mum loves it she thinks it's very very professional
I did it I did it all on my own I did it's true you are on top of the
hill is that an idiom not on top of the hill but you can say that someone is
over the hill so if someone is over the hill it means that they are old it's
true so you might describe a person who is elderly as being over the hill or
maybe if they are old and unfit you might say oh he can't walk very far
anymore I think he's over the hill so over the hill means you are old or too
old to do something so maybe someone might say mr. Duncan you are too old to
do English lessons on YouTube you are now over the hill that's not very nice
I'm always willing to own up to my mistakes says Bella yes that is one of
the questions we are asking today if you ever make a mistake will you owned up to
the mistake will you owned up to the mistake will you admit that you have
made a mistake some people don't like to admit their mistakes they don't like to
own up also if you have done something wrong maybe you have done something bad
you might have to own up so that is a great English expression that means to
admit something you admit to something you own up you own up to something so
Bella Bella always owns up to her mistakes but what about you
do you ever own up to your mistakes how to spell Rican oh I will spell that
for you now because I have my pen nearby so that's very useful so I will write it
for you now I am writing the name of the hill now on a piece of paper there it is
so that is the name of the hill that you can see just over all over there there
it is the Rican there we go
the verities there is the name of the hill and the hill as well can you see it
I hope so so I hope that answers your question
thank you very much and for those who are wondering it is 1,300 feet high so
yes it's quite high and you get a very good view from the top last week by the
way we were talking about measurements because we were talking about decorating
and measuring things and I thought today it would be a good idea to talk about
measuring things as well because there are different types of measurement there
are different ways of measuring things for example you can have centimeters and
you can have meters so centimeters are the small units of measurement and
meters are the large the large measurements so there are many different
types of measurement and many years ago we used to have feet and inches so
inches are the small units of measurement and feet are the large
measurements so 12 inches is 1 foot so yes to be honest I prefer the
old-fashioned way so I still remember the feet and the
inches so even nowadays I tend to use inches and feet when I measuring things
I don't like using centimeters I don't know why I can visualize in my mind I
can visualize a foot but I can't visualize I can't imagine a meter I
can't imagine it but I can imagine one foot it's very strange
maybe I'm just very old-fashioned perhaps I am over the hill so live-chat
is very busy in the Inigo asks why is the hill so special well one of the
reasons why this particular Hill is special because it is very high it is
very big very large and across the landscape it can be viewed for many many
miles so even from my hometown the place I was raised in a place called Stafford
you can actually see this hill from there and that is many many miles away
so the rican this particular hill is very very well-known in this area it has
a legend as well connected to it some people believe that it was built by a
giant who was trying to keep the Welsh out of England I don't think that's true
somehow I don't think so I think that's just a myth a legend hello mister don't
go and this is my second time texting you on the live chat I am one of your
biggest fans oh thank you very much I'm always pleased to hear that I have
regular viewers thank you very much I am very glad to announce on your live
stream that I've graduated with a degree in English language and literature
Musab can I say a big congratulations and a massive huge
tremendous thumbs up to you well done congratulations and I'm sure I'm sure it
is well-deserved I'm sure you have put a lot of work and
a lot of effort into your study and that is how you succeed that is how you
succeed so can I say a big congratulations once again to Smith Saab
well then I always get mixed up with stone when talking about how heavy
something is so when we talk about heavy things or how to measure the weight of
something yes so how heavy something is so some people use a measurement called
stones and other people use kilograms and other people use pounds and I agree
it can be very confusing I always use stone so for example my
weight is around about ten and a half nearly 11 stone so I weigh my weight is
around about ten and a half and eleven stone so sometimes it goes up a little
and sometimes it comes down slightly so that is my average weight so during the
winter I always put a lot of weight on because I eat more and in the summer
because I exercise more I lose weight so yes I normally use stone I don't
understand pounds because in the United States they use pounds to measure weight
whereas here we still tend to use stone or kilograms i mr. d'Ancona which place
are you now la reef I am now in England broadcasting to you live from England in
a place called much Wenlock which is in the county of
Shropshire you can look it up and Google later apparently apparently I am now on
the Wikipedia page from which Wenlock I was told the other day someone said mr.
Duncan you are very famous now because you are now on the Wikipedia page for
Much Wenlock it actually mentions mr. Duncan I couldn't believe that I was
very shocked very surprised yes we can use stone as a measurement of weight now
the reason why they say stone is because in the past I think they used stones to
measure the weight of things so if you wanted to balance something if you
wanted to find out what the weight of something is you would put a stone on
one side and the thing that you wanted to weigh on the other and then you would
keep putting the stones on until it balanced so if you had to put five
stones on then the thing weighs five stone so I
think that's where it originates to be honest but I I do find sometimes it is
very confusing when you measure things Inigo asks how tall are you I am over
six foot so I am just over 183 centimeters so around about six foot and
a little bit so I'm very tall I remember when I was in China I was always the
tallest person in the room mr. Duncan I am from Brazil Agra lardo
or Agra lardo Rodriguez is here hello to you and welcome welcome to the live chat
oh I think I'm getting a nice suntan here wow I'm actually getting the Sun on
my face now isn't that lovely oh very nice very lovely I'm from Brazil
mr. Duncan and also we have Lea treat watching as well from Vietnam as I said
earlier we have a lot of people watching in Vietnam
yes mr. Duncan I have just looked on Wikipedia and you are there thank you
has that so apparently yes it's true I know I'm now entered my name is entered
on people living in much Wenlock who are famous I can't believe it
am I really famous I never I never feel famous I'll be honest with you sue cat
sue cat is late why are you late what happened what is more important than
watching my life's dream mm-hmm is it Mother's Day where you are perhaps it is
so welcome tsukete Vladimir is watching hello Vladimir Penna watching from N J
when you say NJ where do you mean do you mean somewhere in Russia or maybe
somewhere in the United States I'm not sure lots of people watching in Russia
today by the way thanks for correcting my sentences we are learning all the
time with you that is true and that is one of the good reasons the best reason
to watch my live stream is it will improve your listening you can improve
your listening skills it is something that you have to learn over time it
takes a long time to improve your listening
so watching my live streams and interacting interacting with my live
streams is a good way of practicing your listening your listening skills so yes
you are right good morning from Brazil Giuliano is watching all the way from
Brazil once again I have a lot of people who like to tune in from Brazil yes I
think it is New Jersey New Jersey in the United States oh that's very nice
I am from God's own country says Vishnu Vishnu could that be India maybe maybe
you're watching in India at the moment I'm not sure I think maybe maybe but if
I am wrong I don't mind being corrected so if I ever make a mistake if I am ever
incorrect about something I don't mind admitting it but what about you
do you like admitting your mistakes what happens if you make a mistake do you
like to admit to your mistake do you like to own up to your errors so if you
ever make a mistake do you say okay I will own up I made a mistake I was
incorrect I was wrong I don't mind admitting it so that's it so sometimes
it is very hard to admit that you are wrong you've changed my English in a
positive way says sama I am very pleased to hear that thank you very much I'm
pleased to hear that my lessons are having a good effect on your learning
and also on your speaking and listening skills as well thank you very much it is
now quarter to three already I've been here for 45 minutes
it's gone so fast Wow I can't believe it this time in Argentina it is the same
time in my city as here in Brazil I woke up a few minutes ago and I started
watching mr. Duncan when I was still in bed do you know what I have a feeling
that many people especially if you are behind the UK time I think a lot of
people especially in South America I think they watch my live streams
whilst lying in bed I think so I think a lot of people do that yes I think so
Mother's Day in Argentina is on the third Sunday of October oh I see so your
Mother's Day hasn't arrived yet but around the world today in many countries
people are celebrating Mother's Day it's being celebrated in many parts of the
world are you enjoying the Sun because the Sun has now come out ah it's not
lovely we have sunshine we had lots of sunshine this morning and then it went
very cloudy but now as you can see the Sun has come out again
very nice very nice indeed and I hope the weather where you are is good as
well Koloff says I have learnt a lot with
your shows thanks a lot well don't worry during May there will
be many many live streams I will be here every Sunday and also every Wednesday
live twice a week Sunday 2:00 p.m. Wednesday 10:00 p.m. and both of those
are UK time so you can find out what the time difference is so in some parts of
the world you will be a head of the UK and in some parts of the world you will
be behind the UK as far as the time is concerned so yes it might be a good idea
to find out what the differences are Korea
oh I'm so excited to see someone from Korea
hello Korea are you in North Korea or South Korea I have a feeling you might
be in South Korea but of course lots of positive things coming out at the moment
from Korea as the north and south seem to be healing their differences they are
starting to get along together which is always good news I like to hear that I
always like positive news have you noticed these days there seems to be a
lot of negative news around so it's always nice to hear some positive news
for a change AG Nell doe says you are the best
teacher in the world I am sure I am watching from Brazil thank you very much
for that that's very kind of you I suppose the Sun raised in the UK are
warm right now lookey you during our extreme winter I
was surprised when I saw white tourists wearing very light t-shirts so yes thank
you shadi for your message
well can I just tell you something can I let you in on a secret there is
something that happens with tourists and even people who are native to wherever
they are living and quite often men do not like wearing coats they don't like
putting lots of layers on their body because they think it is a sign of
weakness so quite often men will walk around in their t-shirts and their
shorts even though the weather is freezing because they think it looks
very macho very strong they think it makes them look very very manly you know
like me mm-hmm I am a man and I'm walking around on a cold day but I'm
wearing a t-shirt because I am very strong so that's the reason why that
happens it happens here is well to be honest I am able to listen to most of
your words but when I look at the IELTS test that it sounds like an echo so it
was hard to catch oh I see so T ass are you talking about your IELTS test
because during an IELTS test you will have a listening test where you will
have to listen to sentences and then you will have questions about the things you
just listen to or maybe you will be asked direct questions by the examiner
so yes you are right you have to learn how to listen you have to listen to
different types of English being spoken but it does take a long time you can't
rush these things they take a very long time
mr. d uh oh I see oh are you talking to me am i mr. d
mr. d the CERN is too strong for you and it is scorching you yes I think I think
today I'm getting a very nice suntan on my nose because normally when the Sun is
on my face normally I will get very small spots on my face so my skin will
react to the sunlight and I will get little spots called
freckles freckles so the freckles will come out on my face
and then later they will vanish again because my skin is very dark so when the
Sun is on my face my skin will change slightly it will get very dark and I
will get lots of little freckles on my face especially on my nose and I think
they are there to protect your skin so when you get freckles I think they are
kind of a defense against the sun's harmful rays I think so so let's have a
look I really don't celebrate Mother's Day
because my mother passed away almost 16 years ago thank you sue Kat for sharing
that and yes I'm sorry to hear that of course there are many people who have
lost their parents over the years or maybe recently and Mother's Day or
Father's Day is not such a happy event because well they are not there to share
it with you and you are not able to share it with them here in Hong Kong
says Jing it is 33 degrees that's very hot fortunately it isn't 33 degrees here
today it's around about 19 20 degrees today so it's not very hot here today I
like it when my mistakes are in English are corrected so they won't get stuck
in the way I speak Thank You Eugene well I always try to do that if I if I talk
about someone's comment or if I read your comment on the live chat sometimes
I will make corrections so as I read the comment I will also correct it as I
speak and this is something I can do very quickly because of my experience of
teaching aren't we going to see mr. Steve today because of his mother
well mr. Steve's mother is here right now she is sitting just over there
enjoying the weather and mr. Steve won't be joining us today I'm afraid because
he is rehearsing he has a big show coming up so that's unfortunate tsukete
I always owned up I always owned up to my errors there it is oh I always admit
to my errors are you going to come to Vietnam in the future mr. Duncan and I
don't know maybe one day who knows I do like to travel I have traveled to many
countries in the past level means level right back the words still level level
well level just means the position that you are at so maybe you can be at a high
level or a low level it just means the position that you are at so if something
is level it can be straight it can be very straight it can be flat it can be
level and of course we can say how high something is we can say high level or
low level
mr. Duncan there is a big cloud between you and the Sun you are right there are
quite a few clouds around today you can see them all floating by in the distance
yes but I hope you can still see me I will I will turn my camera I will open
my camera a little bit there we go you should be able to see me
better now I love springtime the view is amazing everything is green here in
Buenos Aires it is autumn and everything is brown well autumn can be a very nice
season as well I quite like autumn to be honest Thank You Bella rusia for that
mr. Duncan I like your glasses well these are my reading glasses these are
the glasses that I wear when I read the live chat on my phone so maybe my
eyesight is getting worse because I am over the hill over the hill it means you
are too old too old for something you are over the hill you also transmit a
positive way to encourage life what is your philosophy of life mr. Duncan you
don't need to answer but I know it's a pretentious question it's okay Inigo
every morning when I wake up this is my philosophy of life by the way
it isn't very complicated it's quite a simple one when I wake up in the morning
I always wake up with a smile on my face and the first thing I think about is all
the people that didn't wake up I no longer around so that's it so every
day that comes my way is a present yes it's a gift so I always try to make
the most of every day that comes my way because that's it that's what life is
all about you grab life it is something you take hold of and you you mole
and you use it sometimes you can use it to help others and sometimes you can
help it to help yourself you use it to help yourself
it might sound selfish but sometimes you have to be a little selfish to survive
but of course once you survive you can also help other people as well so that
is my basic philosophy every morning when I wake up I have a smile on my face
and I think about all of the people who didn't wake up that's it
I enjoy the calm pace of your lessons it is like an oasis of tranquility in a
frantic world especially on YouTube yes you are right well YouTube has changed
so much over the years YouTube is now full of lots of things
that are that are flying toward you everyone on YouTube is trying to get
attention they're trying to get noticed so everyone now is going crazy to get
noticed on YouTube and of course when that happens you get chaos you get
confusion and of course a lot of people don't like that sort of thing so I'm
glad to hear that you like my lessons and I'm glad to hear that they make you
feel calm and relaxed I am very pleased to hear that very pleased indeed yes we
must have a day where we cherish our mothers dedication I think so I think
Mother's Day is a very important day it is don't forget you your mother brought
you into the world she brought you up she brought you into the world
hello mr. Duncan many regards from the Adriatic Sea
marela hello Marella there is a baby robin flying around at the moment a
little tiny baby robin and the parents keep going over to feed it
how lovely throw me dice I love nature very much I really do if you come to my
country or any country in the southeast of Asia I will come to see you directly
thank you ts I have been to Southeast Asia many times I've actually been to
Malaysia many times and of course this week Malaysia is in the news because
they have a new prime minister but the new Prime Minister is actually their
former prime minister from many years ago Mohammad Mattia and I remember when
I was staying in Malaysia I used to visit very often during the 1990s and he
was the prime minister then so I remember Mohammad Mattia very well and
now he is the Prime Minister of Malaysia again and he's 92 92 so it just shows
you are never too old never too old my son called me to say hello because of
Mother's Day I was happy to hear his voice I was happy to know he is alright
Thank You Mika for that isn't that lovely so your little son said hello mum
happy Mother's Day I'm thinking of you I like that
in Argentina it is autumn and here at home everything is still green because
we have all of the rain yes I think I think in Argentina you've had a lot of
rain recently have you ever been to Nepal I haven't I've been to China which
which isn't very far away from the pool I could understand you're speaking very
well mr. Duncan without any help Oh Thank You Carlos I'm very pleased to
hear that I feel very proud that my English is clear and I'm very pleased
that you can understand me if you come to Vietnam I will guide you
around for free thank you very much it sounds good I like that that's a deal
hi mr. Duncan Patricia is watching in Argentina it is my second time to chat
on your Sunday stream I am with my daughter Camila and we are having fun
because of you thank you for what you have taught us and kisses as well thank
you so a big hello to Patricia and also to Camila as well I hope you are
enjoying this special live stream outside I'm actually I'm actually on my
studio studio roof right now mr. Duncan when has the live started today 2
o'clock 2 o'clock UK time so every week my live streams are on at the same time
every week there we go Sunday 2 p.m. UK time and also Wednesday
10 p.m. so those are the times of my live streams Sunday 2 p.m. Wednesday 10
p.m. and both of those are UK time so the
royal wedding is taking place next weekend will you be watching it will you
well I probably won't as I explained earlier I'm not all that interested in
weddings unless of course I am invited and they
haven't invited me so Harry and Megan haven't invited me it's not very nice is
it I would have thought I would have
thought I would have got an invite don't they realize I have an entry on
Wikipedia now don't they realize
I I feel appreciative I appreciate your lessons on YouTube
they really help to improve my English so much thank you thanks to you
thank you left raped retreat you are very welcome
it's a pleasure I love doing this I wish I could stay on all the time
teaching English live I wish I could do this all the time
but sadly I can't your neighbor's little dog is barking yes it's true is a little
dog living there and it likes to say hello to me sometimes
it says hello hello in the pool it is 7:45 p.m. so now it is well now it must
be after 8 o'clock at night in Nepal mr. Duncan did you just drop the case sound
in the word actually did I I don't know maybe I was saying it quickly sometimes
when you speak quickly or if you pronounce a word fast you might
sometimes drop a letter from the word or a sound but it doesn't mean it's wrong I
was on a trip to Liverpool and I could not understand the guide what a pity
Pal Mira yes maybe the person had a local accent and maybe they were
speaking very fast or very quickly so yes that might be the reason has mr.
Steve gone to jail I don't think so at the moment mr. Steve is doing his
rehearsal today he's rehearsing for a show that he's in in three weeks from
now so mr. Steve at the moment is rehearsing
for a show that he is in for those who have just joined us its mr. Duncan live
on YouTube from England and it is a Sunday afternoon
it's true so Mother's Day here's a word that can be used in many ways would you
like to have a look at this word here it comes the word is Bank Bank now this
word has many uses so I suppose the most obvious use is a place where money or
valuables are stored for safe keeping so if you want to keep something safe and
secure you will put it in a bank you will store it you will keep it safe so
the word bank can be used as a noun and of course it can be used as a verb as
well you can bank some money you can bank some checks so if you Bank it means
you put your money in a bank or you will send some money to the bank to go in or
of course you can do your banking so banking is the expression that says you
are doing something connected with your money or you are putting money into your
bank or you are taking money out of your bank you are doing your banking and if
you work in a bank or at a bank we can say that you are in banking you are a
banker you are a banker bank can also mean a slope or some ground so if you
have a slight hill that goes upwards we can describe that as a bank a bank and
of course if you are flying a plane you can also bank as well that means to
turn around suddenly so if you Bank you will turn suddenly in a plane so as you
can see the word Bank can be used in many ways indeed live chat is busy let's
have a look my friend from Indonesia will marry a guy from Manchester oh I
see oh ok they are getting married where where are they getting married
are they getting married in Indonesia or are they getting married in Manchester I
am very interested to find out maybe they will invite me perhaps they will
invite me to the wedding hmmm I like the sound of that I bet
there will be lots of nice food there I think so so yes you can have the bank of
a river the side of a river so where the land meets the water you can say Bank so
normally a river bank will go down and then the water will appear so a river
bank a river bank yes you are right Maria I'm saying hello to Maria hello
Maria Maria has just arrived you are very late I've been here for 1 hour and
10 minutes I will be going soon I'm not staying for 2 hours today I will be
staying for less time today because mr. Steve isn't here
Kyrgyzstan is here hello Kyrgyzstan thanks for joining me I'm reward e has
arrived oh you are late as well but you know what they say better late than
never it's true oh there is someone now flying
their plane above my head I wonder if they are going to Bank they are going to
Bank I wonder I'm sorry I'm late Marcela is
late as well what is happening today there must be something very interesting
happening because many people are late today I don't know why why what's going
on is there something exciting happening maybe perhaps it's because of Mother's
Day maybe you're spending a lot of time today with your mother in which case I
forgive you mr. Duncan I think the royal house must own up to its mistake maybe
for the first time and invite you to the upcoming wedding Valentin or Valentin I
agree with you yes I don't know why they didn't invite me I was very disappointed
I was hoping that I would be sitting at the head table with Prince Harry in the
Queen wouldn't that be great yes mr. Duncan you are right it is
Mother's Day lots of people today are celebrating Mother's Day around the
world except here so today here we are not celebrating Mother's Day because
Mother's Day was a few weeks ago
Xavier or javi err says is anyone bombing your Terrace yes there is there
is a plane flying around above my head at the moment it's going round and round
above my head but fortunately I don't think it's going
to bomb me as far as I know yes it is Mother's Day here says Marcela
oh no Mother's Day is the third Sunday of October says Marcela so it is
Mother's Day in some places and in other places
it isn't including here so today it isn't Mother's Day in the UK I like your
t-shirt Thank You Kristina for that this t-shirt is brand new it's a new t-shirt
and mr. Steve bought this for me last week is is a surprise present
he said I've bought you something new and I thought what is it so he said hold
out your hands and close your eyes so that's what I did I held out my hands
and I closed my eyes and he gave me this t-shirt this is a little present that
Steve gave me last week so I thought I would wear it today because it's such a
nice day you are always funny well thank you very much for that I'm not sure if
that's a good thing or a bad thing is it good is it good to be funny I'm
not sure bank holiday yes we can use the word bank and holiday bank holiday yes a
bank holiday here in the UK means a public holiday so if we have a public
holiday we have a bank holiday the Royal Wedding is next week but I don't think
it is a bank holiday or a public holiday I think it's just going to be a normal
day it is a good thing to be funny Thank You Bella for your support there thank
you very much that's very kind of you
mr. Duncan do you know which bird in your place has such a special sound I
don't know I can't understand what you mean I don't know I'm not sure it sounds
like many birds many birds can make maybe an owl do you think it's an owl
because owls make a sort of noise but at the moment there are many birds flying
around because it's nesting season now so many birds are flying around feeding
their chicks in their nests the pigeons are building their nests the Robins are
feeding their chicks at the moment they are they are feeding their chicks also
blackbirds I have a black bird nest in my garden so there are some black birds
taking care of some chicks very hungry chicks chicks in a mess so yes it's a
very busy time of year the weather is so nice for drinking coffee I think so I
did have a cup of coffee earlier but now I'm outside I have some water in fact
I'm going to drink some water now because my throat is very dry excuse me
hmm
very very nice so it is a lovely day here we're having a nice time and it's
live English on a Sunday afternoon I hope you are very happy today
I really do live chats I like your good spirits mr. Duncan
thank you Mina for that thank you very much it's very kind of you the ability
to make someone laugh is great thank you Vishnu of course there are different
types of laughter you can laugh with someone and you can laugh at someone so
there is a difference between those things maybe if a person is seen as
being foolish or idiotic people will laugh at them but if a person tells a
joke and lots of people find the joke amusing they are laughing with the
person so there is a slight difference
hyung din asks do you like drinking alcohol not really no I I would I would
say that I don't drink alcohol I don't think that owls live in the UK do they
yes they do at the back of my house there are many owls living in the trees
and at night you can hear them you can hear I can do my our impression would
you like to hear my our impression
that's terrible isn't it I'm sorry that's better that's good that was a
good one that's very good and one more more
so yes there are many owls around here in the trees and at night especially
during the summer months you can hear them all calling so some owls have a
very nice song whilst others don't they have a sort of screech that sounds awful
so not all owls have a nice sound they don't we laugh with you mr. Duncan oh
I'm very pleased to hear that I'm very pleased to hear that you laugh with me
and not at me it's coming up to 16 minutes past three o'clock
thank you very much your sympathy makes the lessons very lovely thank you Anna
for that as far as I'm concerned it might be Mother's Day every day yes I
think it should be I think you should treat your mother with respect and
kindness and love because one day she won't be there I think so because of the
quality of the natural water in your area the place is not good well we have
natural springs around here we have natural water in certain areas around
here and also in Derbyshire as well a beautiful part of the UK they have many
natural Springs where the water comes through the rock and it's very natural
very good for you so yes we have some very nice places to get fresh water all
I see Inigo refers to the oh I think it might
be the cuckoo yes we have a very special bird that lives in the UK called a
cuckoo that's the sound that it makes but it's very hard to stefarr
very hard to see is a very shy bird but quite often during the months of May and
maybe June you will hear the cuckoo calling in the distance if you are lucky
you will hear the sound of a cuckoo
also the word cuckoo can mean crazy as well so if we think someone is a little
bit crazy we can say that they are completely cuckoo
I think owls are nocturnal birds they are they come out at night
so if you come into my garden at night you can hear the owls in the trees they
are all hooting hoot a hoot is the sound of an owl talking about
birds I hear the sounds of birds Chinese birds in your video singing very loud oh
I see Mika I don't know which birds they are but there are lots of birds at the
moment flying around and making their noises there are black birds in fact
there are many black birds at the moment flying around because they are all
feeding their chicks so there are many black bird nests at the moment so I
think one of the most common sounds at the moment is probably the sound of the
black bird to be honest I think so cuckoos are lazy they lay their eggs in
other birds nests they are yes they will actually go to another bird's nest and
they will push the eggs out so they will push the
mother's eggs out and they will put their own in there but the very clever
thing is they can actually make their eggs look like the eggs of the nest that
they are raiding it's true it's amazing I think cuckoos are quite clever even if
what they do is not very nice but yes they're very very clever birds so
yes they can lay eggs that look like the eggs of the nest in which they are they
are raiding and they are pushing the eggs out and laying their own and then
the mother comes along and she will raise the chicks as if they are her own
it's true
hi mr. Duncan Jia ma is here hello jammer I hope you are okay the light is
changing now you can see that the Sun is moving across so now it is starting to
go behind the house so yes you can see that the Sun has moved during today's
lesson I will be going very soon it's just coming up to 23 minutes past three
o'clock I will be going very soon what about nightingales mr. Duncan
do you hear many nightingales not as many as you used to we used to have many
nightingales here in the UK but over the years their numbers have got less and
less it's very sad how are you doing mr. Duncan ello Marga
is here ela Marga watching in Uruguay a big hello to Uruguay thank you very much
Uruguay is watching right now it's official the Sun has just arrived to the
chat says Javier you're right yes the Sun is now out I think I'm going to have
a very nice suntan today I think my face is going to look very lovely and brown
today I think so but not too much Sun because it's not good for you you don't
want to have too much Sun now let's just turn the camera down slightly that's it
so it's not too bright the landscape behind you looks like a painting very
nice yes Christina that is the view today it's looking it's looking very
nice indeed very nice yes I think so the cuckoo baby is very nasty because it
drops all the other eggs out of the nest and lays its own I know
but nature can sometimes be very cruel nature can be a very cruel thing indeed
yes Amy Jessica I'm okay I'm okay the change of light is assigned to stop stop
the livestream says Tomic return to mr. Steve's mother oh it's okay she's fine
mr. Steve's mother is now sitting outside with her newspaper and she has
lots of things to read so mr. Steve's mother likes to sit on a
Sunday and read the newspapers so in a moment I will finish in five minutes
five minutes I will go and then I will attend to mr. Steve's mum so don't worry
I won't I won't ignore her don't worry about that she's very happy today
very happy to be here and so am I the Sun isn't good after a shave always see
really I don't know what that means I've had a lovely shave today I think my
shave looked good today I had a lovely shave someone asked me last week they
said mr. Duncan how many times do you shave during the week well sometimes I
shave every day but other times I might shave every couple of days because if
you shave your face too often it can become very sore and very painful so
sometimes I shave every day and other times I don't it just depends on what is
happening in my life really but normally when I do my live streams I always like
to have a shave I do greetings from Chile hello Chile is it
Chile in Chile willing will Amero or will will mo will mo
I hope I pronounced your name right anyway please say hi from Egypt oh you
are a big hi from Egypt to mr. Steve's mother thank you am reward you for that
that's very kind of you I will say hello for you after I finished the livestream
so I think we'll end it there I will see you on Wednesday
and I will be back Wednesday night at 10 p.m. UK time I hope you've enjoyed
today's unusual livestream because I have been outside on the roof of my
studio normally I am inside the studio down there but today I thought I would
do something different and go on the roof and that's what I've done
thank you so much mr. Duncan Thank You amory Thank You Jamelia the view behind
you looks really nice I wish we could see mr. Steve's mother sadly mr. Steve's
mother is very very shy very shy indeed so no no mr. Steve's mother today
unfortunately I'm sorry about what very sorry I'm just changing the likeness I'm
just adjusting the exposure on the camera so on Wednesday we're talking
about lots of things the Royal Wedding mr. Steve will be here on Wednesday of
course joining me live and I will be here and I hope you will be here as well
I really do goodbye Tamika good bye to El comandante thank you very much
thank you Christina see you later thanks Eugene mr. Duncan I have a
problem but it is very little I write much in English but I understand
the words very well but when I hear the language I don't understand anything do
you have a way to solve that well what I always suggest just before I go what I
always suggest is that you should learn to listen so listening can help you to
remember the words keep them in your head and of
course listen to different types of English as well so quite often when you
read something you are listening to your own voice in your head so whenever you
read you are doing it to yourself but when you listen to people speaking and
when you interact with people then that's a very different situation so
that can only be improved by practicing it's a simple answer but that is the
answer I will see you on Wednesday yes Wednesday I will be here on YouTube
10:00 p.m. I will find the times where are they I can't find them they've gone
they've disappeared I have so many things in front of me on my desk for
those who are interested you can find all of my lessons in the playlists
underneath this video so I have over 500 video lessons on my youtube channel 500
yes 500 video lessons have a great day have a super Mother's Day if you are
celebrating Mother's Day don't forget to give your mother a call and say mummy I
love you and of course until Wednesday 10:00 p.m. UK time I will leave you and
I will go and make a lovely cup of tea for mr. Steve's mum and of course you
know what's coming next as the birds sing around me and as the clouds float
by you know what's coming next yes you do...
