  • Hello and welcome to Six Minute English.

  • I'm Dan and I'm Rob.

  • So Dan, what's uh, oh, sorry.

  • Oh, it's my wife.

  • Uh, hang on.

  • You didn't answer.

  • Well, don't take this personally, Dan, but I'm not exactly crazy about someone eavesdropping on my phone call.

  • If you eavesdrop on something, you secretly listen to someone's conversation.

  • Something's a private, you know.

  • Oh, of course.

  • I totally understand.

  • One quick question for you, though.

  • Do you have a smart speaker?

  • You know, like Google Assistant Amazon's Alexa or Apple's Siri?

  • Oh, sure.

  • Yes, I've got one.

  • It's great.

  • I can ask you all sorts of questions.
