You should ... your baby here.
Fooled you!
💡 The graffiti says “No babies”, so people should NOT throw their babies inside. Except “retain” – which means “keep” – all the words were synonyms of throw away or leave behind.

#125 Our favourite mistakes: Writing
▶️ Look at this sentence:
People today face many problems, such as stress, loneliness, conflicts with others and etc.
❓ What’s wrong here?
❗️ There is no combination and etc. because etc. means et cetera and et already means and in Latin.
❗️ You have two options – either just etc. or and so on. Choose one only.

#43 YouTube Channel Recommendation: Simone Giertz
📊 English Level: Upper
🔤 Subtitles: Automatic
💬 Topics: Do-it-yourself, inventions, home improvements
💡 Content: Simone comes from 🇸🇪Sweden and lives in 🇺🇸America, and she’s not your typical girl. She rolls up her sleeves (=prepares to do physical work), heads into her workshop and makes new stuff from scratch (=from zero) while sharing her thoughts in the process. Watch her make furniture or handicraft, fiddling (=touching and moving sth) with cars or inventing something totally new.

#21 Know Your World: Special marriage practices
▶️ It’s interesting how in other cultures something we think of as crazy can be totally normal. Marriage practices can be especially shocking. Let’s look at three phenomena and their geographic distribution:
1. Polygamy: This is when a one person has more than one spouse (=married partner, husband or wife). When a man can have several wives we speak of polygyny; when a woman can have several husbands it’s polyandry.
2. Cosanguinity: This is the word for “cousin marriage”. In some countries it’s common to marry one’s first cousin.
3. Child marriage: This is when a person (usually girl) marries before reaching adulthood.

What a draw!
💡 The style of this song is Bhangra from the region of Punjab which is divided between India and Pakistan. Since India wasn’t an option it should have been Pakistan.
