  • The English.

  • We speak from BBC Learning English.

  • Hello, it's Rob here.

  • And me, Helen.

  • This is the English we speak.

  • Rob, I don't know why we have to stand up when we present this program.

  • It's quite tiring, really.

  • I thought standing up would give us more energy and sitting down makes us a bit, well, lazy.

  • But I've been standing up all day.

  • This is my only chance to sit down.

  • Why didn't you say?

  • Here, have a chair.

  • Take the weight off your feet.

  • The weight?

  • Take the weight off my feet?

  • That's a bit rude.

  • Do you mean I'm heavy and my feet can't carry the weight?

  • Oh, Helen, don't be so sensitive.
