Hi!
On today´s lesson we are going to watch a short clip of the hilarious show After Life, starring Ricky Gervais.
As you will see, the scene takes place in a restaurant and turns around a children menu that can´t be ordered by an adult…
As always, I have made a list of vocabulary below, so you can understand every detail and little joke.
Enjoy it!
Vocabulary
Hungry: wanting or needing food. Sometimes is confused with angry, that means “having a strong feeling against someone”
Café: a restaurant where simple and usually quite cheap meals are served. Spanish people usually mix it up with coffee, the dark drink, because in Spanish is café.
Loser: a person who is always unsuccessful at everything he does. It´s a common insult in English, but not a very hard one.
To fancy: to want to have or do something. Also, to be sexually attracted to someone. Very common in British English, not in American English.
Fish fingers: a long, rectangular piece of fish covered in breadcrumbs and cooked. It´s quite a typical cheap food eaten in United Kingdom.
Beans: the seeds of some climbing plants, eaten as a vegetable. There are different types of beans like green beans, baked beans or kidney beans. Another typical British food eaten mostly for breakfast.
To order: to ask for something to be made, supplied, or delivered, especially in a restaurant or shop. In this video they are ordering their food.
Portion: a part or share of something larger.
