| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody. My name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions. |
| 0:11.1 | Come on, let's master English. |
| 0:14.3 | Hello everybody. Welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression, the Vodcast. |
| 0:21.3 | Today we have a nice word, the Vodcast. |
| 0:29.7 | Today we have a nice word, a phrase actually, leap day, L-E-A-P-D-A-Y. |
| 0:30.3 | Leap-D-A-Y. We also say leap year, L-E-A-R. |
| 0:36.1 | And what it refers to is February 29th. |
| 0:41.6 | Okay, so when I'm making this recording, it's actually 2019. |
| 0:45.8 | And this year, February only has 28 days. |
| 0:52.8 | So our next leap year is next year. In 2020, February is a leap month. And it has an |
| 1:02.9 | extra day, February 29th. The 29th of February is a leap day. All right. So I would guess actually leap month, leap year is probably |
| 1:15.5 | more common than a leap than leap day. But anyway, we say all three. Check out the dialogue. |
| 1:23.6 | Hold are you, Tim. 40? Ha! I'm only nine. |
| 1:28.3 | Not mentally. I mean, your actual age. |
| 1:32.8 | I've only had nine birthdays. I was born on Leap Day. |
| 1:41.2 | Do you know anybody who was born on February 29th? |
| 1:47.6 | Yeah, well, we have one student. |
| 1:49.2 | Our DDM-VIP, Perf VIP student, Gullia, was born on February 29th. |
| 1:57.5 | So Gullia is still just a child. |
| 2:24.4 | How lucky is that? Yeah. Well, next year, finally, Gullia gets to celebrate her birthday. So in case I forget, if you're listening, happy birthday to you, Gullia. How old will you be this next year? Leap day, leap month, leap year. So next year, |
| 2:33.0 | 2020 is a leap year. The leap month is February and of course the leap day is February 29th. You guys have a fantastic day. Don't skip a day. Keep every day and make them |
| 2:38.8 | positive and happy. And don't forget, sign up for the free stuff. www. Let's MasterEnglish.com |
