Hello, this is Six Minute English from BBC Learning English.
I'm Neil.
And I'm Sam.
Sam, what blood type are you?
Ah, you mean the different groups used to classify humans by blood.
Types A, B, AB and O.
I think I'm typo.
How about you Neil?
Well, it may sound strange, but actually, I don't know.
Hmm, yeah, lots of Westerners don't know their blood type.
But in parts of Asia, blood groups are a topic of daily conversation.
People select romantic partners based on blood type,
and different blood groups are associated with different personalities.
In this program, we'll be finding out all about blood,
why humans have different blood types,
and whether blood is something more than just a way of pumping oxygen around your body.
And of course, we'll be learning some new vocabulary as well.
Now, Neil, I have an interesting fact for you.
