Welcome to the one hundred and sixty-sixth Wednesdays with Bob video!
Normally these English lessons are for members only, but for today, I'm releasing it for everyone. Enjoy!
In this English lesson I talk about how two dogs almost bit me while I was walking. Remember even though this isn't a traditional English lesson, it is still a great way to practice your English listening skills! Thanks for being members!
TRANSCRIPT:
Well, hello, and welcome to Wednesdays with Bob. Remember, even though this isn't a traditional English lesson, there are word for word English subtitles if you need to turn them on, and a complete transcript in the description below.
Well, I just got back from my walk. I actually went for a full 90 minutes this morning, and it's been a while since I've done that. I do like going for really, really long walks, so it felt really good. But I'm feeling a little out of sorts. I don't know if you know that word. I'm feeling a little out of sorts because two dogs ran out about 2 km down the road. There's a place that has two big german shepherds. They look like this. They're kind of mean looking, and normally they're in like a kennel area.
But today when I walked by, they weren't and they came running at me, barking very, very angrily. And so I was on the same side of the road as the dogs. So I looked both ways to make sure there was no traffic. There was a big truck coming, but it was kind of far away. And I ran across the road and then I turned and I just started yelling at the dogs, like, hey, get away. Get lost. Get. Get! And then I saw the owner running from his house, yelling at the dogs as well. And then the big truck that was coming had to come to a full stop because the one dog stayed on the other side of the road. The other dog came across the road at me, still barking. And I just remember seeing a lot of teeth. And I had my winter hat in my hand, so I was getting ready to throw it.
And this is going to sound kind of strange, but I was trying to think, okay, if this dog does try to bite me, where do I want it to bite me? And so I decided it would be my left arm. Sounds kind of funny. It's not funny at all. But if I had to sacrifice part of me, I would let the dog bite there and hopefully the owner would come. But just as the dog was about a meter and a half away from me, the owner was yelling like crazy like I said. And finally the dog heard the owner and turned and ran away. Big truck was stopped. I actually wish the truck had honked his horn. That might have stopped the dog as well. But anyways, a little bit scary, but I'm fine. My Fitbit, though, did say that my heart rate went up quite a bit during that little incident.
Anyways, this is what it looks like here. Yeah, not much to show you. It's like kind of green. We really need it to freeze and we really need to get some snow that's actually good for some crops and to kill off some different insects. But we're just out here enjoying the warm weather. It is nice to go for a walk without freezing, but at the same time, hopefully it gets a lot colder soon.
Anyway, thanks for being members. Thanks for watching these little Wednesday videos. See you next week with another one. Bye.
⌛ Remember: Always watch the video three times. Twice today with English subtitles on, and once tomorrow with the English subtitles off. This will reinforce the English you have learned!
