Transcrição

Hi, English Experts friends! Welcome to this special edition of English Podcast. Today, in English, of course. I'm Alessandro Brandão from Brazil. I'm Adir Ferreira from Brazil and I'm Rachel Smith from New York City.

Alessandro: Today we're going to talk a little bit about "How to speak English like a native English speaker". So, stay tuned.

Let me tell you a little bit about our today's guest. Rachel lives in New York City. She was born and raised in Florida, went to college in Indiana where she studied Applied Math, Computer Science, Music and graduate school for Opera Performance in Boston. She loves being connected to people throughout the world through Rachel's English. Hi Rachel, it's a pleasure.

Rachel: Hi!

Alessandro: Thank you for joining us today.

Rachel: Sure... Thanks for having me on.

Alessandro: Great! By the way, how's Lucy?

Rachel: Lucy is doing well. Yep, she's holding up well, I just rode her around Manhattan this morning, so I'm happy to have her.

Alessandro: Great! Just to let you know, Lucy is Rachel's new bike, because her old bike had been stolen and she decided to ask readers for suggestions for a new name. Of course, I was rooting for "magrela". Here in Brazil "magrela" is a common name for a bike. Did you know that?

Rachel: Uh-huh… ... Well, I figured it out pretty quickly because many many people were suggesting that as a name.

Alessandro: We used to say also "Camelo" or just Bike in English.

Rachel: Hm-hum , yeah.

Alessandro: Rachel, let me introduce you my friend and partner, Adir Ferreira.

Adir: Hello, Rachel! It's a pleasure and an honor to have you with us today.

Rachel: It's nice to meet you.

Adir: Ohh fantastic, nice to meet you too. And as most of our listeners and readers know, I'm a huge aficionado of pronunciation studies and it is always a pleasure to feature your videos on my personal blog and on Transparent Language English blog for Portuguese speakers too, it's always always good to have you there.

Rachel: Well, thank you for doing that, thank you for helping to spread the word about my work.

Adir: It’s my pleasure.
