The English we speak from BBCLearningEnglish.com hello, I'm Fei Fei.
And this is the English We Speak.
Yes, it is.
And hello, I'm Rob.
I don't know about you, Rob, but I seem to have so much work to do at the moment.
Yeah, me too.
We've got to meet that deadline by Friday.
I guess we've all got lots to do.
And that's why I was surprised that Phyllis has to take three days off work this week.
Three days?
Are you sure?
Hmm.
Maybe she's unwell.
No, she's fine.
I heard her say to the boss in a very loud voice,
I've got a great deal on a flight to Italy, so I need to take the rest of the week off.
What cheek.
She's got a brass neck.
