Burials in the Moon!


Hi everybody!

Here you are a BBC video about a new invention: moon burials. Do you know what a 'burial' is? Click here to find out.

This video is not related to what we are currently doing in class, but the point is that you can listen to both British and North American speakers of English, so I think it can be interesting for you...

There are 4 speakers: the commentator,Charles Chafer and two people in the street. Who speaks Britsh? who speaks American English? Give it a try!

Hello:

I think that the woman is American. She says: my husband is British.

Dear Anonymous

You're both right and funny.

You're right because the woman is American and funny because the reason is not that she says "My husband is American" since any woman from any part of the world could have a British husband, don't you think? :D

Listen carefully to the way she utters 'there', that's the key.
