You are listening to Dialogue Frog’s short English conversations. So, if you look outside, you’ll notice it’s autumn.

Luke 0:11
Oh is that what that is?

Emma 0:12
That is what that is.

Luke 0:13
Interesting.

Emma 0:15
Yeah.

Luke 0:16
It’s very cold.

Emma 0:19
It’s cold in here.

Luke 0:20
Yeah.

Emma 0:21
You have to have sweat sweatshirts and blankets and-

Luke 0:25
Yep. Long johns.

Emma 0:27
Long johns. Not the doughnuts.

Luke 0:30
Yeah. Well, maybe some of those too.

Emma 0:32
Maybe some of those too. No, it really feels like it’s fall. Properly fall.

Luke 0:37
Yep. Yeah, it does. I have officially broken out the jackets in my uh, apparel-

Emma 0:48
And sweaters.

Luke 0:48
-collections. And sweaters.

Emma 0:51
The wool socks.

Luke 0:52
The wool socks.

Emma 0:53
Boots.

Luke 0:55
Boots. Yep.

Emma 0:56
Yep. Yeah. gloves, hats, scarves.

Luke 0:59
Mm hm.

Emma 1:00
It’s that time of year.

Luke 1:01
Yep.

Emma 1:02
It really, if if you if you look outside, it’s like gray. It’s raining. It’s- it makes a person want to stay inside and drink a warm beverage.

Luke 1:11
Mm hmm.

Emma 1:13
Yep.

Luke 1:13
So, what is your favorite autumnal warm beverage?

Emma 1:19
I like hot cider. Yeah. What about you?

Unknown Speaker 1:24
Um, I don’t know. I think I just go straight to the winter beverages, like eggnog and hot chocolate. I-I’m not sure I have an autumn beverage.

Emma 1:37
Yeah, with autumn like you’d normally you’d think of things like pumpkin spice flavored coffee or chai tea or apple cider. Things that have cinnamon and-

Luke 1:47
Yep.

Emma 1:47
-warm spices. That’s usually what your autumn flavors are.

Luke 1:51
Did you say ‘apple spider?’

Emma 1:53
I did not say ‘apple spider.’ Apple cider.

Luke 1:55
Okay, ’cause I’d probably have to stop eating apples if there were apple spiders.

Emma 2:00
Well, like I can’t speak for like the local organic ones. Maybe those have apple spiders.

Luke 2:05
Okay.

Emma 2:06
Yep. Okay, well, have a happy autumn, everyone. Thank you for listening to this episode of Dialogue Frog. Uh, we have a survey on our website dialoguefrog.com. Uh, let us know what you’d like to hear in a future episode of Dialogue Frog.
