17 分钟Hi there, this is Harry, and welcome back to my podcast where I try to help you to get a better understanding of English so that you can communicate in a way that you feel comfortable with, either in conversational English or business English with your friends on holidays, whatever that might be.
And we help you with pronunciation, grammar, and of course, expressions, idiomatic expressions, phrasal verbs, whatever it takes, we're there to help you.
Okay, so what are we going to look at in the podcast today?
Well, we're going to talk in some ways about finance, and indeed, we're going to talk about personal finance.
So we're going to focus on personal finance vocabulary, co location.
So, quite a mouthful.
Personal finance vocabulary, co location.
So what does that mean?
Well, it means words connected with personal finance and money talks.
Yeah, that's what we have an expression we use in English, money talks.
And of course, people like to talk about money as well.
Yeah.
Okay, so we're going to use some expressions that you might hear if you're talking or listening or reading about personal financial matters.
So as always, I'm going to go through these one by one, and then I'll give you some examples.
And at the end of this particular podcast, I'll give you my contact details.
Okay, so let's start first one, to keep afloat or stay afloat.
Next, the main source of income, to supplement your income, to get into debt, to spend a fortune, to run up an overdraft, to cut down on luxuries, to clear your debt, to pay back the loan and to write off the debt.
Okay, so all connected with personal finance.
And as you'll have heard in those quite a number, use the word debt.
Debt.
