Welcome to Aussie English with your host Pete, where we talk about the English expression “out of your depth”.
In this episode, Pete shares his weekend adventures and tackles a listener’s question about the cost of cigarettes in Melbourne. You’ll learn about the hefty taxes driving up cigarette prices in Australia.
Plus, Pete serves up a dose of Aussie humor with a joke about hipsters.
The main focus is on the expression “out of your depth,” exploring its literal and figurative meanings.
Pete provides examples ranging from sports tryouts to pet ownership mishaps, helping listeners grasp the concept fully.
As always, there’s a pronunciation exercise to refine your Aussie accent and a listening comprehension challenge featuring a clip from the Australian miniseries “Faraway Downs.”
