E365: 🎙️ Hello and welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast. My name is Anna, and you're listening to Week 44, Day 5 of Your English Five a Day. This series focuses on increasing your active vocabulary while also improving your listening skills.

🌟 In today's episode, we start off with the conjunction "albeit". Up next is the verb "amputate" and the noun "amputee". After that, we dive into the adjective "untouchable" and wrap up the list with another adjective, "fateful".

🧗🏻‍♀️ We'll practise pronunciation together and use these terms in a story that brings them to life. In that story, we'll see how a seasoned climber’s life changes irrevocably after a fall results in the amputation of her arm. Faced with unimaginable challenges, she learns to navigate life with one arm, determined to reclaim her love for climbing.
