Here, we select frequently used daily English expressions covering social, work, travel, and other scenarios to help you get rid of “textbook English” and learn the expressions that native speakers really use.

There's so much to talk about when we talk with Tina Turner, your new album will talk about the tour that records the Haynes, things lots of things to cover. You do not live in this country. I take taxes here. I'm not family, you see. I didn't mean to find any of that. No, I have left America because my success was in another country. And my boyfriend was in another country. And yeah, private dance is the beginning of my success in England. And basically Europe has been very supportive of my music. More than America. Yes. Yes, hugely. Surely not. You're a major star here. You're a superstar in America. Not as big as Madonna. And as big as Madonna in Europe. I was biggest in some places in the Rolling Stones. In Europe. In Europe. So you chose to live there and you didn't choose England though. That's where you live. I went to England for a couple of years. And then I met a man. And I lived three years with him in his country in Germany. And then I bought a house in the meantime in the South of France. And I started to rebuild that. So I'm in and out of there. That's not a place where I can go often.

Where's home? How's the Rick? Why is Rick? Because my boyfriend was moved there to run the company. And I always wanted to go to Switzerland. And I was very happy. He's your boyfriend, going to be your husband, where it's permanent boyfriend. Let's go like it is. Do you like it like it is? What company does he run? EMI. Oh. Everyone says that. Well, you could take obvious. Tina, you don't need your husband. I never know about this. This has got to be loved. Well, ten years of it. This is no small time. This is not like it. Like it. Who? You realize that someone said this. Do you realize that you are a feminist hero in America? Heroin. Your wife just told me that. No, do you realize that? I'm beginning to. You see, it wasn't something that I planned. I kind of see it as a gift because of the life I lived. It had a meaning. And I think that the meaning was all of what is happening now. I think that if I had not given the story to the world, maybe my life would not be as it is. I believe.

So you are aware or not? No, I'm becoming more and more aware. Going public with that story, was that difficult? Yes. Because I had had a lot of violence. House is burned. Cars shot into the lowest that you can think of in terms of violence. And I didn't know what would happen at that point because it had kind of died down and the divorce was final. My life was kind of getting back on the road. And I didn't know what would happen. I didn't know what kind of method would stir. So I had to really take a deep breath and make a decision. I felt somehow getting it out. I guess it was instinct. But I felt that getting it out would be not suppressing it anymore, letting the world really know. Because they were constantly talking to me about why I can I separate it. And I could never tell the truth. Nobody really understood. And they still don't understand. But I think slowly now they are beginning to.

Did the picture do a test? Yes, I think in a way I would have liked for them to have had more truth. But of course, did you see this? It's impossible that people would not have believed truth. And I understand that. You would not have believed all you had taken. That's right. All right. If it's difficult to sum up, even take some time. Why did you stay? I was very good to me when I first started my career. I was in high school and started to sing weekends with them. And we were close friends. We had a very fun life in some kind of way. The mistake was when some kind of way it became personal. And it wasn't my doing. And actually, I think he realizes that had it not become personal, we would have probably still been together today. I was, I lost much in the process.

You stayed because. Okay. I wanted very much to be a star. But he was too shy to really sing the style of what he wanted. And in some kind of way, because I'm very loyal. And because he was as good to me as he was, I promised him that I wouldn't leave him like some of the other people that he had written songs for. And then when the song was a hit, they left. This was a basic story that was a story of his life. So you were trapped by a promise? Yes. I care as well. And that lasted till what? Well, the first seven years, I realized that. I wasn't appreciated. No matter that I was staying because I was paying a debt of being loyal or whatever, it was just, it was getting worse. And I realized that I also wasn't really helping by staying there and going through all that I was going through. So I started to plan. So it actually, 14 years in, this one I was very close to making the decision. And so it was actually 16 years that I stayed with him. So it took a good three years to make up my mind. Was he in the shape? Yes. Tina Turner's our guest. And she is gearing up for her wilds, those dreams you asked to her. And you know, Tina's the kind of a febber who gives you whatever you want. Ah.
