Hello and welcome to the English We Speak.
I'm Fei.
Fei.
And I'm Roy.
My legs are really aching.
I've been standing all day.
Well, there's an easy fix for that.
Roy, sit down.
No, sorry, I can't.
I want to be at the front of the queue when we go to watch Rob's Biscuit Band tonight.
Firstly, I'm not going with you.
Secondly, I think you've mixed up front of the queue with frontliner,
which is a word we're talking about in this program.
Ah, right.
A frontliner is a person who works in an advanced position.
It's been mentioned quite a lot recently due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Yes.
Doctors and nurses who have direct contact with patients are sometimes referred to as frontliners.
