146. Double Meanings... (Australian Slang)

TEACHER TALK! by Free Bird English ·

2023/02/28

A "double entendre" is when you say something that means one thing, but could also mean something dirty. In this episode we realized that it is difficult to talk about gardening without sounding dirty in Australia! The words that have double meanings are "hoe"(ho) and "root" or "pull a root". Be careful if you talk to an Australian about gardening! Lol Teacher Talk YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd6WmMG4ixKi54TQ8--fd1g?sub_confirmation=1 SPACE DRAGON on Spotify:
