Hello and welcome to the English Like a Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 26,
day 5 of Your English 5 a Day, the second season.
With this series,
I am on a mission to help you to expand your English vocabulary so that over time,
in a relaxed and enjoyable way,
you increase your active vocabulary and start to feel more comfortable and confident when using English.
All you have to do is make English listening a regular habit,
which is why these podcast episodes go out every day of the working week from Monday to Friday.
I'm committed to being here for you.
All you have to do is tune in.
And if you'd like access to the database of all the vocabulary that we have covered so far in the series and everything we do into the future,
then you can access that for free.
The Vocabulary Vault, it's called, and I'll leave the link in the show notes.
But now it's a Friday,
so we will be recapping all of the vocabulary from this week in one big story.
The 20-franc fortune.
Sometimes the best stories begin with the worst weather.
