In this episode, Christina and Kristina talk about: 

• alternative words to use instead of 'conference'
• conferences that they have attended
• the activities done at conferences

The extra mile (useful English vocabulary you'll hear in the podcast): 

• a trend = a general movement; a current style or preference
• practical = of, relating to, or manifested in practice or action : not theoretical or ideal
• hands-on = relating to, being, or providing direct practical experience in the operation or functioning of something; involving or allowing use of or touching with the hands

Christina:

Hi everybody. Christina here for the Faster Fluency Conversation Club podcast. I hope you're all having a good week, good month and all of that. Um, I'm here with Kristina today, Kristina, with a K. How are you doing today?

Kristina:

Hey, Hey, how are you? Doing good.

Christina:

Yeah. Doing well doing well. So let's see today. We're gonna talk about, um, a subject, which I almost feel like is a subject from like the world before COVID, but maybe things are coming back to normal, um, attending conferences and things that you've gotten out of conferences, um, in the past. And, and doesn't have to be, um, conferences related to English, cuz I think people, you know, listening to the podcast or people in FFCC, um, probably will not be attending conferences for English teachers. They would be attending events for their own job. Um, so we could talk about any type of conference, congress, convention, which maybe like, I always say conference, but before we started recording this, we were talking about the vocabulary of conference. Um, yeah. Do you wanna tell us a little bit about some of that?

Kristina:

Yeah. Yeah. I've heard um, I've heard conference, I've heard seminar. Um, I've heard convention.

Christina:

Convention. Yeah.
