Welcome back to the Aussie English podcast!
In today’s Sunday episode, I am going to talk about the English expression “be on a roll”.
We are not going to roll on the ground for this!
I will be breaking down the meaning of the words in this phrase, and tell you about its origin – yes, like rolling dice!
Listen closely for a bonus English expression: get to the bottom of things – I’ll be giving a short explanation of this English idiom!
There will be example situations given so you’d know when you can use this expression.
I will also be answering a question from Luciana and she asks what Australians think of immigrants.
And lastly, get your pen & paper ready and try to catch the exact words in this short clip from the classic Australian cult film The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
