Hello everyone and welcome back to EnglishPod.
My name is Marco.
And my name is Catherine and today we have an exciting lesson for everyone out there, very cultural.
Exactly, very closely related to our Halloween lesson that we had,
but on this occasion we're going to be looking at All Saints Day.
Alright,
so this is a festival that's celebrated in many different countries and we're learning today about some of the ceremonies and practices in those countries that are very closely tied to those local cultures.
Exactly.
So we're going to learn a little bit about culture and at the same time we're going to learn some great words and phrases.
So let's get started with this dialogue for the first time.
Your neighbor is crazy.
Why is he screaming that?
Because today is the first of November, the day of the dead.
Oh, that's right.
This is a very special day among many cultures around the world, especially in Latin America.
Seriously?
I thought it was just like any other day,
except for the fact that people visit the cemetery and remember their loved ones.
Well, that's just part of it.
People across the world celebrate in different ways.
