15 分钟Hello and welcome to the English Like a Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 12, day 5 of your English Fiver Day, the second season.
By tuning in,
you are giving yourself a healthy shot of English vocabulary straight into your ears that will absorb into your brain and start to make you feel more like yourself when you communicate in English.
Now when I give it that kind of description, it makes me sound like the doctor.
I am your doctor and this is your healthy daily dose of English vocabulary.
So let's start as we always do with our snapshot.
After ordering takeaway for the third night in a row,
Vlad continued to scroll through job listings on his laptop while waiting for delivery.
When his colleague suddenly quit,
his manager asked him to step into the breach and take over the important client project,
promising it would look good on his CV.
Vlad was excited to dive into the new challenge, but after two weeks of working late nights,
he began to feel like he was going round in circles with no real progress being made.
Okay, let's dive into our vocabulary starting with the noun take away.
Take away.
We spell this T-A-K-E-A-W-A-Y.
Take away.
Take away is the food
that a restaurant cooks and sells and they usually deliver it to you or you pick it up to eat somewhere else.
