[00:00:30]

Yes, it's amazing. He has charm and style.

[00:00:35]

He just has. Oh, yes, Rob has.

[00:00:41]

And charm. Not as much as me, of course, but he has some. Wow. Roy, for once, you actually got the correct word mouth.

[00:00:51]

I didn't say omfg. I said, oh, I was complaining because I hurt my back earlier, putting your cases in your car for you to go on your work.

[00:01:03]

Well, one can never be too prepared when go into the beach. Besides, I need lots of different outfits for when I take pictures. My photos have to have real umph.

[00:01:16]

Yes, I get it. Your photos need to have energy and be exciting. Exactly.

[00:01:23]

Well, let's talk more about my right after these examples.

[00:01:28]

I mean, the business owner showed real umph in her presentation when she was pitching the idea. I really like the way Eric speaks. He has real energy and. The dancers showed real warmth in his performance and energy I haven't seen in a long time. And you're listening to the English.

[00:01:51]

We speak from BBC Learning English, and we're talking about the word mouth. If someone or something has umph, they have real energy and excitement.

[00:02:03]

Some people argue that it is important to have real umph when making presentations. I'm really good at talking to a roomful of people, which means I must have real umph.

[00:02:15]

You're clearly mistaken, I am the one with the umph, I could sell anything to anyone.

[00:02:24]

Well, if I bought what you were selling, I could resell it for double the price. That's how much I've got.

[00:02:32]

No right. You don't have umph. You have a puppy like charm. It's OK to be envious of my puppy.

[00:02:41]

Like, I don't use slippers or chase sticks. I have energy, excitement. People have told me that.

[00:02:51]

And who said that, Rob?

[00:02:55]

But ironically, he said it when he hurt his back, helping me with your cases.

[00:03:00]

Well, I think we all know what he really said by Roy, by.
