Episode 75 – Consistently Consistent 💪

   

Even if there were a nuclear war, one thing you could be sure about is this: an episode of RnR English on a Monday 💪 Why? Because we are consistently consistent! 😀 We speak about how to be consistent but also Dan’s GRAVESTONE 💀, his morning habits 🔞, biting ARSES 🙃 and much more!

The RnR vocab that you will learn in today’s show:

  1. It’s not really a thing (Valentine’s Day) in my book

  2. I can’t be arsed to make podcasts anymore

  3. Use a morning ritual

  4. Dan stays in bed until 11am and has 3 wanks

  5. This bracelet sounds very dodgy to me

  6. I was just trying to put him off (at yoga)

  7. You are lowering your self-esteem (when you don’t do the things you should)

  8. It’s good to know I have some worth in the world

  9. Thank you for your back-handed compliment

  10. When I do kind things, it usually comes round to bite me in the arse

  11. Dan will have that written on his gravestone

  12. These 11 points are all about having a go at me

  13. I love the process, the daily grind

  14. Just let it go

  15. I’m going to be sinking into a depression after this podcast

  16. You were a bit chubby

  19. The alarm is going off at 6.30

  20. I can’t be fucked to get out of bed

RnR Grammar

In today’s show, Dan mentioned how I was ‘touching’ him at yoga and I said:

“I was trying to put you off”

A quick quiz for you: how many of these sentences is INCORRECT?

  1. I was trying to put off Dan

  2. I was trying to put Dan off

  3. I was trying to put off you

  4. I was trying to put you off

    

I hope you got the answer, which is 1 of them (number 4 is incorrect). You will notice that a separable phrasal verb (like put off) doesn’t need to be separated if we have a name / noun (like sentence 1); however, when we have a PRONOUN (you), then the pronoun MUST ALWAYS go in the middle – BOOM!

That’s RnR grammar for you baby 👊
