Hello and welcome to the English Like a Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 24,
day one of Your English Five a Day.
The second season.
This is the series that is dedicated to expanding your vocabulary,
tickling your eardrums on a regular basis and helping you to feel more like yourself.
when communicating in English.
We release episodes every day of the working week from Monday to Friday and all the vocabulary is written down in our vocabulary vault that you can access for free by clicking on the link in the show notes.
So let's begin
as we always do with a snapshot of what's to come.
I had to rack my brain to think of a way to stop the kids from bickering.
Keeping them calm is no walk in the park,
especially when my son can't resist pushing his sister's buttons.
The peace is always short-lived before another argument starts.
OK, we've got some delicious vocabulary today,
starting with the idiom...
To rack your brain.
Rack, we spell R-A-C-K.
Rack.
Your, Y-O-U-R.
