he's a review from BBC Learning English Hello and welcome to News Review The program where we show you how to use the language from the latest news stories in your everyday English I'm Dan and joining me today is Katherine.

So once our story today is a story about a problem with an upcoming wedding on upcoming wedding that sounds mysterious.

So let's hear more about the story from this World Service news bulletin.

There's uncertainty whether Megan Marco's father will attend Saturday's wedding between his daughter and Prince Harry, the sixth in line to the British throne.

It follows reports that Thomas Markle cooperated with a paparazzi photographer to pose for pictures.

Markel had been expected to walk his daughter down the aisle, but he is now reported to have told journalists that he has decided not to go.

So there's a big wedding happening in the UK this weekend.

Prince Harry is going to marry Meghan Markle, but at the moment it seems that Megan's father has decided not to go to the wedding.

Now this apparently is due to, amongst other reasons, he posed for some photos with a paparazzi on.

Reports are saying he's decided not to go now.

It's Tuesday today, the wedding's on Saturday.

So we'll have to wait and see whether or not he does turn up to the wedding.

Okay, well, you've got three words and expressions that we've been used to talk about this story.

We have today Fiasco Bales, Andi, Frantic fiasco Bales and frantic Wow, Good words.

Okay, so let's have our first headline then, please.

Marco's dad won't attend Royal Wedding after staged photo fiasco, fiasco complete embarrassing failure.

That doesn't sound like a very British word.

Okay, it's a countable noun, although usually hopefully there's only one fiasco at a time.

On it describes a situation where things go really, really badly wrong.

We often there's a lot of people who see things going badly wrong.

So we after news it about events like parties, weddings, business president presentations, sporting events where it's all planned it goes horribly wrong.

Everyone sees it and you're completely embarrassed.

Because we often use that word in describing the fiasco.

Instead of fiasco, we can say something's at Deb Arkle.

We can say it's a Tass trophy, but it really it's in.

Oh, my God, I can't believe that happened.

Yeah, a little bit like Neil near and the old English for cats.

So he finally convinced us this can happen.

A crew of 30 people ready, waiting to film.

Turns out the cats can't pronounce English very well.

It was an absolute fiasco, was still talking about it.

Every time we do, he groans inside and we'll start laughing.

Fiasco right before this turns into a complete fiasco.

Okay, we're looking now at Newsweek The headline Who Is Thomas Markle?

Meghan Markle is Dad bails on Royal Wedding Bales quits before the end.

Now Bales is an interesting word, isn't it?

Because I know quite a few meaning of bales.

I mean, there's a cricket related meaning.

There's a kind of, AH meaning related to the justice system law.

It means to leave or stop doing something before it's finished.

So in this case, the royal wedding hasn't happened.

But Meghan markings Marco's dad 1/4 to this headline, has bailed on.

It means he's left before the process has completed.

We often use it without an object, so you can just bail.

But if you want to add the object, you can bail on something or you can bail on someone.

So here that the object is the royal wedding and we use the proposition on to join it, okay, And what other kind of situations to be bailed on any kind of arrangement.

You convey lots of anything that sort of planned.

So if you bail on something, it's always negative.

You leave people unhappy, you leave them disappointed.

So it's it's People are never happy if you bail so done.
