Learn English with the British Council and Premier League

Learning Vocabulary - A Halloween History


Listen Later

In this week's Premier Skills English Podcast, Rich interviews Jack and Rowan about Halloween. How much do they know about this scary celebration? Why do we make jack-o-lanterns out of pumpkins? Why do children go 'trick or treating'? Why do we dress up in scary costumes and try to frighten people? The language focus is on words and phrases connected to Halloween. In this week's task, we want you to play a fun trick on a neighbour. Don't forget to listen to the end of the podcast because we have a new football phrase for you to guess.
