Hello everyone and welcome to EnglishPod.
My name is Marco.
My name is Catherine and today we have a sad lesson for you.
This is an intermediate level lesson about what happens when a friend or family member dies.
Exactly.
So we have a lot of words that are related to all the preparations for when somebody dies and also some phrases
that you can say to someone that maybe had a family member who recently passed away.
So before we get into all of this, we have a key word
that we want to take a look at now in vocabulary preview.
Vocabulary preview.
All right.
So in vocabulary preview, you have that one word and it's the title of our lesson also, funeral.
Funeral.
So funeral is an event.
It's something that we have.
So basically a funeral is the time when we mourn someone who has died.
It's a celebration of their life.
Right, so it's kind of like a ceremony where you respect that person that passed away, right?
Some people will talk about the person that passed away or maybe, you know,
it's time to maybe honor that person to, as you say, mourn and remember that person.
