Hi everyone!

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

In today’s episode:

Awesome! Let’s get started!

  • Look up to someone

When you look up to someone, you view them with respect and admiration.

Example:

“Tom truly looks up to his father, and he wants to become a policeman, just like his dad.” 

This expression refers to a sailor learning the different ropes for the sails of a ship. When you show the ropes to someone, you explain to them how to do a particular task correctly:

Example:
“It’ll take me a couple of weeks to show you the ropes, but after that, you’ll be entirely prepared for the task.”

  • Day one

We usually use the expression day one to talk about something that happens from the very beginning of an activity or a process.

Examples:

“I’m sorry, but your project was meant to fail from day one!”

“This procedure has never worked from day one.”

(END OF THE EXTRACT).
