Welcome to the Ages English podcast.
My name is Jack, and I'm here with my co host, Sochill and her dog Duende.
Duende is very cute.
So Duende is joining us today.
We are under the vocabulary spotlight, and I am going to.
We're actually going to do a slang episode, but this is very specific slang.
This is canadian slang.
So I am going to test Sochil on her knowledge of canadian slang.
And so.
And it's not all slang.
Some of it are just terms that they use to describe things that we don't in the United States or in Europe.
So social number one, what is a tuk?
T o q u e?
You got me.
