hello everybody so have you seen the interview with prince harry and meghan markle talking
about their experience with the royal family and did you understand everything so in this lesson
we're going to look at some of the highlights from this interview and we're going to break down the
english language are you ready let's take a look so were you thinking of harming yourself were you
having suicidal thoughts yes this was very very clear wow very clear and very scary and you know
i didn't know who to even turn to in that so in this part of the interview they're talking about
megan's suicidal thoughts and the idea of her harming herself so if you harm yourself it's
another way of saying hurting yourself and megan says she didn't know who to turn to if you don't
know who to turn to it means you don't know who to go to for help so she had no help from anybody
else in the royal family in those months when i was pregnant all around this same time so we
have in tandem the conversation of you won't be given security he's not going to be given a title
and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born
so in this part of the interview megan is talking about when she was pregnant and she
says that they had in tandem the conversation over the baby security and whether it would get
a title so if you have a conversation in tandem it means you have a conversation in motion it's
a conversation that is being talked about a lot in the royal family at that time a tandem bicycle
is a bicycle with two seats so two people can ride the same bicycle at the same time
so if the conversation is in tandem it's spinning like the wheels of a bicycle she also says that
a member of the royal family had a concern over the baby's skin color
so if you have a concern over something it means you're worried about something why they were
worried i don't know and you're not going to tell me who had the conversation i think that would be
very damaging to them and then oprah asked who was it who said this and megan won't tell oprah
because she says it will be damaging for them this means it will hurt or harm their reputation
it will damage them there's a lot to work through there you know i i feel really let down
because he's been through something similar so in this part of the conversation harry
is talking about his relationship with prince charles his father and he says there's a lot to
work through that means there's a lot to sort out a lot of things to fix he says he feels
really let down that means he feels disappointed and then he sympathizes
with his father prince charles because he says he has gone through a lot as well
a lot of similar experiences in his past so if you go through something it means you experience it
so if you have time and want an extra challenge watch the whole interview it's really good because
you've got british english and american english so it's really good for your listening skills
