  • Feifei: Hello and welcome to The English

  • We Speak, I'm Feifei...

  • Rob: ... and hello, I'm Rob.

  • Feifei: Errr, what is that smell?

  • Rob: Smell? I can't smell anything.

  • Feifei: There is definitely a terrible smell,

  • like mouldy cheese. What's in that bag, Rob?

  • Rob: Oh, this bag! You're right, it is

  • cheese. Beautiful, delicious Stilton cheese

  • in fact. Would you like some?

  • Feifei: No! So why have you got a bag of

  • mouldy cheese?

  • Rob: Well, I stopped at the cheese shop

  • on the way to the office and saw this

  • cheese was half price - and you probably

  • know, I have a good nose for a bargain.

  • Feifei: I don't think so, Rob - judging by

  • this cheese, you have a bad nose - it

  • smells awful!

  • Rob: No, Feifei. When you have a nose - or

  • even a good nose - for something, it's not

  • about your sense of smell. It describes

  • someone who is naturally good at finding

  • and recognising something - in my case,

  • finding a bargain!

  • Feifei: I'm not so sure about that, Rob!

  • Well, I have a good nose for finding

  • examples - so here they are...

  • Examples: We need to sell more

  • newspapers, so we need to find a

  • reporter with a good nose for a story.

  • I have a good nose for learning languages

  • and was fluent in Spanish in just a year!

  • My mum's got a nose for bargains and

  • booked us all flights to Italy for just fifty

  • pounds each.

  • Feifei: This is The English We Speak from

  • BBC Learning English and we're finding

  • out about the phrase 'to have a good nose

  • (for something)'. Rob claims to have one,

  • but I'm not so sure. So how much did

  • you pay for this cheese, Rob?

  • Rob: Only 20 pounds - it was half price!

  • Feifei: That's because it's old - look, it's

  • going green! Sorry, Rob - this cannot stay

  • in the studio. It stinks - out it goes.

  • Rob: That's not very nice.

  • Feifei: Hold on, I can still smell something

  • bad. It's your socks! Look, you haven't got

  • your shoes on. Urghhh!

  • Rob: Wow, Feifei, you really have got a

  • good nose - a good nose for bad smells!

  • Feifei: Your bad smells, Rob!

  • Rob: Time to go. Bye.

  • Feifei: Bye.
