  • Hi, everybody.

  • This is Amy from real english conversations, and I'm here with Curtis.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • And today we're going to tell you all about how you can predict your future or tell fortunes.

  • So there's four main or common ways that people tell fortunes in american culture.

  • What are they?

  • They are palm reading, tarot cards, tea leafs, and astrology.

  • All right.

  • And there are some less known ways, which I found today when I was on Wikipedia learning a little bit about fortune telling, and I thought that I would talk about them.

  • Okay, so the first one is roosters pecking grain, which I imagine is just a plate, maybe in front of the rooster, and he eats his food.

  • And then after there's a pattern and it's interpreted some another one, a little bit more gruesome is reading the livers of sacrificed animals.

  • Ooh, yeah.

  • That sounds like something from the medieval days.

  • Yeah, definitely.

  • And the last one, which is the most disgusting of all, is reading animal poop.
