An English Lesson About Bad Weather ☔🌧️💦
Manage episode 517970895 series 2616031
In this English lesson, you’ll learn how to talk about bad weather in a casual, everyday way and also in a more formal way you might hear on the news.
When it’s raining or snowing, we use all kinds of expressions to describe how awful it feels outside. You’ll hear people say things like “It’s miserable out there,” “What a gross day,” or “It’s a crappy day.” These are all informal ways to describe bad weather when you’re chatting with friends or coworkers.
You’ll also learn how to sound more formal when talking about weather conditions. In the news or in official announcements, people often use terms like “adverse weather conditions” or “inclement weather.” These phrases are useful in reports, emails, or work situations where you need to sound professional or polite, even when the weather is terrible!
Finally, we’ll look at common actions and phrases people use during rain or snow. When it rains, you might “get caught in the rain” or “be drenched” by the time you get home. In snowy weather, you could “go in the ditch” or “slip and fall” on the ice. You’ll even learn sports expressions like “a rain delay” or “to be rained out.”
By the end of this lesson, you’ll be ready to describe any kind of rainy or snowy day in both formal and informal English!
I hope you enjoy this English lesson about bad weather!
