E133: ?️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast, your go-to listening resource for intermediate to advanced English learners. Join us on Week 9, Day 3 of our series, Your English Five a Day, where we enrich your vocabulary with five new words or phrases each weekday. Today's journey begins with the concept of the "status quo." Moving on, we then unravel the verb "symbolise" and the adjective "significant." We'll then explore the idiom "hold fast" and last but not least, we dive into the phrase "a done deal." ? Join me in weaving these words into a narrative, where builders Mark and Tony challenge the status quo to create a significant community centre. Experience their journey as they hold fast to their beliefs, negotiate, and ultimately seal the deal.⭐ ENGLlSH LIKE A NATIVE PLUS ⭐Join English Like A Native Plus - a membership allowing you to access the bonus episodes, plus a weekly email with the most recent podcasts' transcript.Become a PLUS member here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038858/subscribeSupport the show
