Hello and welcome to the English We Speak from BBC Learning English.
I'm Fay Fei and hello, it's me, Neil.
Are you ok?
I can't stop itching.
Oh, dear.
That's very uncomfortable.
What's caused that?
Well, it's probably because I've started gardening.
I've planted some flowers and I've started growing my own vegetables.
I'm impressed.
It sounds like you've been bitten by the bug.
Yes, bugs in the garden.
That's what's causing me to itch.
Probably, but I wasn't referring to the actual bugs.
When you are bitten by the bug, it means you have become very interested and excited in doing something.
We're not actually being bitten by a bug.
But in your case, Neil, it looks like you've been bitten by both types of bugs.
Yep.
