17 分钟Hi there, everybody, it's Harry here.
And just before we get into the podcast for today, I just wanted to tell you about another podcast that you might enjoy.
It's called English learning for curious minds.
It's hosted by a british native english teacher called Alastair, who says you learn weird and wonderful things about the world at the same time as improving your English.
Well, if you haven't done so already, I'd suggest checking it out for yourself.
He's done some amazing episodes on things like the history of tea, James Bond, Peaky Blinders, and things like the English of Donald Trump.
All the episodes come with a transcript, subtitles, and a vocabulary list.
So go on, give it a listen.
Just search English learning for curious minds on your favorite podcast app.
Okay, so let's get on to the class for today.
So today we're talking about advanced phrases with take to take something.
So as always, I'm going to go through them one by one, and then I'm going to give you some examples as to how to use them.
Again, we've got ten particular phrases, so let's start.
