It's spring on the calendar, but outside it looks more like mid-winter!☃️🙈
(Hello from Lviv =))

Instead of going for a walk to the local park, it’s time to find an ambient café where soft lighting and gentle music create the perfect cozy atmosphere.

A warm drink and a good book will allow spring to settle in your mood, even if it refuses to come outside

Привіт усім!

Це повідомлення для тих, хто є нашими активними студентами і тих, хто лише думає про приєднання до програми.

Ми наразі переробляємо нашу схему реєстрації і не можемо визначитись, яка краща.

Наша мета — щоб:
1) кроки реєстрації були зрозумілі;
2) щоб вони не лякали 😄

Будемо вдячні, якщо ви нам допоможете визначити найкращий варіант ❤️

Якщо маєте коментарі / поради — також дуже будемо вдячні!

Щиро,
Команда ENGin

Humor is an integral part of our lives. Even some scientists have repeatedly said that laughter prolongs our lives.

That's why today we decided to share with you different types of humor and examples of their use (check the picts) 🤣

We would also like to share some videos that will cheer you up in this terrible rainy weather (greetings from Lviv) and help you practice your listening skills:

Mr Bean's Top 10 Moments | Mr Bean
Rowan Atkinson - "Fatal Beatings"
The Ones That Make You Laugh | Friends
The Funniest Moments In Talk Show History Compilation

Vocab from the pictures 👨‍💻:

vice - immoral or wicked behaviour
exaggeration - a statement that represents something as better or worse than it really is
by mishap - an unfortunate accident
inept (slang) - generally incompetent
prop - something you use as a support (like a broom that serves as a prop to hold a door open)
