[00:01.68]Hello, and welcome to The English We Speak. I'm Jennifer, and with me in the studio is, yawn, Helen.[00:12.28]Hi Jen. Are you a bit tired? Oh yes, I really am. I've been here since seven this morning. I think I'm ready to call it a day now.[00:22.88]What do you want to call it? Monday? Tuesday? Oh no, I don't mean. How about Saturday? That's my favorite day.[00:30.69]Or we could call it a new day altogether. What about cake-day, or coffee-day. I don't want to rename the day.[00:37.71]In English, if you're ready to call it a day, it means that you want to finish whatever you're doing, and usually go home.[00:45.62]So you want to call it a day now? We haven't finished the programme yet. That's true.[00:51.89]In that case, let's hear some examples of the phrase in action. We're getting nowhere with this.[00:57.32]Shall we call it a day and start again tomorrow? I'm getting picked up from work at five, so I think I'd better call it a day.[01:05.74]I see, so if you call it a day, you decide that it's time to finish the work you're doing. That's right, so let's call it a day right now.[01:15.34]Alright then, do you fancy a quick drink after work? Well, I'm feeling pretty tired, but I suppose I could come out for one drink.[01:24.35]Let's go then! Some time later... Jen, look at the time, we've been here seven hours. I know. I don't know where the evening went.[01:37.04]It's probably time to call it a night. I thought the phrase was "call it a day"? We can also say "call it a night" if you've been somewhere in the evening and you know it's time to go home.[01:48.19]Well, I definitely think that you need to call it a night, then. Although look. What? The sun is coming up already.[01:55.95]We've been out on the town all night. Perhaps we should call it a day instead? That means it's nearly time for work again. Can I call in sick, please?
