AE 348 – Expression:
To Top/Cap It All Off
Welcome to this expression episode, guys.
It is Saturday morning and I am here on Facebook to do the third live lesson that is going to be hopefully a regular occurrence for all of these expression episodes.
I’m just going to wait for a few of you to show up, to come in to the class.
Hopefully, that some of you are awake. I know it’s an early morning.
I just thought that I would nip things in the bud, get the expression episode done before I have to nick off to the cafe nearby, and go to a lesson with some of my Iranian friends Ali and Somi.
Hopefully, they’re listening or hopefully they view this later.
Give me a thumbs up, guys, if you can hear me OK. Just let me know that the audio is all right.
Ali’s here as usual, though you might have been second there, mate.
I think I saw someone else pop in first.
So, I’m just going to give the episode a quick share, because it helps boost it so more people will see it.
So, if you want to help me out make sure that you give the lesson just a quick share, give it a like, and hopefully it’ll reach more people.
And also, tell me where you guys are from today. Where are you watching from?
Are you guys all in Australia? Are you in the south, in the north, in the east?
Whereabouts are you guys? All right. Let me give a quick share.
Quick. Quick share, quick share.
How’s it going Hashim? I’m from Australia mate. Whereabouts are you from?
Pilar’s in Sydney. You’ve got to come down to Melbourne, Pilar.
Come on. Come on. Come down to Melbourne. Quickly. Quickly. Sure.
Every time I run these lessons I stream it through my phone and it takes up all of the bandwidth for my Internet.
And so, the computer runs incredibly slowly. Okay. So, we’ve given that a share.
Welcome guys thanks so much for joining me today. I really appreciate it.
Glad to have a bunch of you here, ’cause I know this one isn’t scheduled.
I just kind of jump on when I get the chance. Hey Stefania.
So, let’s just get into it guys.
Today’s expression is going to be “to top it all off” or “to cap it all off”. So, “to top something off”, “to cap something off”.
This one was suggested by Karina.
If you haven’t already, jump over to the Aussie English Virtual Classroom Facebook group and join up.
Every Monday/Tuesday we start talking about expressions that we would like to learn, and we add them into a poll so that you guys can vote on which expression we do.
And this week’s was Karina’s one. So, good job Karina. Good suggestion.
And everyone voted on it and it got to the top of the poll.
So as usual guys, I’m going to run through the different words in this expression.
I’m going to define them. Give you some examples of using them.
I’m going to then go through the expression itself and defi...
