we've got all our bases covered we've got all our bases covered this is a really great phrase and it's really useful right yeah let's listen to a couple of examples example one we've got all our bases covered in case the hurricane hits example two okay I have my keys wallet and passport looks like I have all my bases covered okay it's clear now but you can use this in a lot of different situations right you can use this in many situations if I'm at work I could say all right we've got a really good marketing plan we've got all our bases covered exactly you have everything ready you're all prepared Perfect all right now let's take a look at our second phrase and it's let's get going let's get going let's get going let's get going all right so when you say let's get going it just means let's start let's start let's go y okay but the interesting thing about this phrase is you can change it a little bit and it means something different uh-huh let's listen to a couple of examples example one I have the chicken so let's get cooking example two this house is really scary let's get out of here example three I have another meeting in 20 minutes so let's get down to business so

time to look at fluency Builder Erica why don't you explain what fluency Builder is in fluency Builder we give you some great useful phrases to help you express your ideas clearly okay great so let's look at fluency Builder fluency Builder all right so we all know how to ask the question are we ready to to go that's right you can say can we go now or you can say are we ready to go exactly but there's another way that we can say this and we heard it in our dialogue so let's listen so are we all ready to go so are we all ready to go wow that sounds really good it sounds a lot more fluent fluent exactly yeah okay so another simple phrase that we all know how to say is it is ready it is prepared it is ready right so these examples are fine they're right mhm yeah they're correct English no problem but there's another way to say this that we heard in the dialogue and it sounds a lot more fluent yep it's all set yep it's all set it's all set that sounds much better yes and we're all set to listen to this dialogue for a third time and this time it's going to be at its normal speed so are we all ready to go yep I think so the car is packed we have munchies and music and the maps in the car did you get the camera got it did you fill up the tank yep it's all set you're sure we're not forgetting anything I'm sure we've got all our bases covered well let's get going then I love road trips do you think we can make a pit stop but we've only been on the road for 10 minutes I know but I forgot to go to the bathroom before we left so Erica you said you've been on a million road trips what was that about where have you been okay well maybe not a million road trips but many road trips every summer I used to go on a road trip with my family and we would drive many many hours probably eight hours in one day up to Northern Canada oh wow nice yeah and then we would go camping and we would sleep outside and we would have a campfire at night it was great ah family road trip yeah but maybe 8 hours in a car is a little too long well yeah well I've been on a different kind of road trip with some uh buddies of mine some friends we would drive to Las Vegas really yeah so that's really fun a bunch of crazy guys in a car going to Las Vegas and then just having fun and talking about everything so that's a much different experience than the family road trip maybe that sounds a little bit more fun yeah 8 hours in a car is not really that boring with all your friends all right folks we're out of time for today but be sure to visit our our website at englishpod do.com and leave all
