You made the vocabulary easy to understand Brent sir, Have your Christmas preparations started?
Thanks, Megha. Yes, Jamie has started decorating.
Looks like my previous comments have melted away again, so I'll just give you a thumbs up 😉👍
Strange. I checked the hidden comments, and nothing was there.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Most likely the problems are on my side (all those sanctions, restrictions, bans, etc.) 🤷♂
@ oh, I see.
Your amazing
Yesss🤩🙏
❤❤
That's really difficult vocab Brent.
I've heard about this shocking story. The unusual thing about this crime (I'm not sure if it's true though) is that people don't judge this criminal very much, because no one likes insurance companies in the US. I saw some toxic comments about CEO people leave on the Internet.
I have heard the same thing. I’ve actually seen reports of people protesting his arrest absolutely crazy.
Advanced lesson, especially the legal term 'waive deportation', because 'waive' normally means 'refuse, say no', not 'agree' with sth 🤔
By the way, Brent, op-ed is an abbreviation for “opposite the editorial” (often incorrectly thought to be abbreviation for opinion/editorial).
Aw, thanks for the correction. I had no idea.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent I hadn't as well. 🙂 I looked up the meaning only after watching your video.
@ thanks so much!
Eureka! Brent, I've got it!! Waive extradition means to agree to return voluntarily, not forcibly as it would be in case of extradition which is always a forced procedure.
Sometimes it needs pretty much time to grasp English expressions correctly 😊
Again, thanks for the lesson ❤
😊😊😊😊
This event was quite a shock. However, I've heard that the CEO was involved in politics. This can be a pretty heavy topic, so I won't go into details.
Joy, that totally could be true. I'm not sure.
you're good looking guy😊
You're very kind. Thank you.
