Simplified Speech #229 – Things that get on our nerves

Listen Later

In this episode, Andrew and Indiana get honest with each other about everyday things that annoy people. They talk about habits that “get on their nerves,” such as loud chewing, people using their phones while talking, overused clichés, bad driving habits, and even dog owners who don’t follow the rules. Along the way, your hosts explain useful expressions like “gets on my nerves,” and “grinds my gears,” so you can understand and use them the next time you want to complain to a friend!

What you’ll learn with this episode:

  • How to use natural English expressions for talking about annoying habits and situations
  • Real-life examples of common, idiomatic ways to complain in English
  • Vocabulary for describing irritation, such as annoying, irritating, and rude

    • This episode is perfect for:

    • Intermediate English learners who want to practice real conversational English
    • Students who want to expand their vocabulary for everyday situations
    • Anyone who wants to sound more natural when talking to friends about small problems and annoyances
