Luke's English podcast is a kind of pleasure where you lose yourself into the universe and learn English while doing it. In England, BIO is something else. You can actually buy BIO in France because I thought that it was readily available for free on the Metro. Passion is a very important concept in France. And in other places, in Britain, we don't go in for passion so much. We tend to say it's my hobby,. It's more laid back, sort of maybe, you know, but you might choose not to do that... But to practice the hobby. Yeah.
Here's part 2 of my conversation with "The Son of the Dragon Tamer" in which we talk about these things: - The difference “pleasshure” and “pleasure”, “bio” and “B.O.” - The importance of ‘passion’ in France - Jamie Oliver’s (fake?) cockney accent - British & American English - Corneliu’s experiences in America, his acting and his accent - Corneliu’s learning experiences with a great teacher when he was a child - The interesting course-book which Corneliu used in his English lessons - The myth of ‘the English gentleman’ - Depictions of Englishness in films - Stereotypes of Romania - Romania & Bulgaria’s entry into the EU and the media panic related to migrant workers - Vampires, Dracula and Romania Click here for more information
