  Through common expressions, pronunciation tips, and interesting cultural snippets or stories,

• 00:19

  I hope to keep this fun, useful, and interesting.

  Hi, everyone.

  We'll, of course, dive into the meaning.

• 00:44

  I'll teach you about the origin.

• 00:47

  And we have multiple examples today so that you can hear how it's used naturally in conversation.

• 00:57

  At the very end, there will be a little pronunciation exercise just for reinforcement.

  really looking forward to that episode The Great Smoky Mountains are just a stone's throw away from us.
