  • Live Language in London streets

    We have created this blog with a view to bringing you closer to the quirky (perhaps the real one?) English language, its nuances and expressions that you are exposed to if you live, study or work in London.

    Every week you will meet Ineta Putane, who holds a BA in English Philology from the University of Latvia. She has worked as an English teacher as well as a translator. She is currently living in London and for this reason she would like to share with you the knowledge of a different kind of English-the kind you hear in the street, parties, and daily working life. It’s the language that you might not learn at school.

    No lip service this time

    A while back I was moaning about the lousy Internet service provider. I called them up to make a complaint and see what was going on. After what seemed like endless hours on the phone, they finished checking my line and promised to fix it asap. I was quite sceptical at first as I have …

    A change is as good as a rest

    They say that a change is as good as a rest. I think it’s about time I changed jobs.  Unfortunately, it is easier said than done as the job prospects are bleak at the moment.  Jobs are few and far between and a lot of companies pay peanuts. If you get paid peanuts, your salary …

    A perfect day for lounging about

    Not that long ago I was planning to take some time off to recharge my batteries. And today I did just that. It turned out to be a perfect day for lounging about (be lazy) with a mug of steaming coffee, some chocolate (for my sweet tooth) and a great book. Staying at home was …

    Having a moan

    Today I feel like having a moan and the reason for my complaint is the Internet service provider. It is the pits (the worst, unpleasant)-the connection either drops or disappears altogether. During Easter weekend the internet connection was non-existent and I ended up being late with the blog. I have had enough of this lousy (very …

    All work and no play…

    Although spring is officially here, London has been experiencing a cold spell for over a week. It’s a sharp contrast to the sunshine we were basking in more than a week ago. Besides changeable weather, springtime often brings tiredness that affects a huge number of people. It has affected me too-I am feeling out of …

    My sweet tooth

    Some time ago the team at work decided to organize a ‘bring a typical dish from your country’ lunch. It finally took place today and was a huge success, a real treat for food lovers. Scrumptious food galore, with dishes from all over the world- a foodie heaven. In my opinion, tiramisu wins the best …

    Tips for a foodie

    We are a foodie (a person interested in different kinds of food) office-sharing an interest in scrumptious (delicious) food. Without doubt food is one of major pleasures in life.  Being part of such a multicultural office, there is a thing or two we can learn from each other. My colleague cooked a super delicious paella …

    Now, here is a thought

    Many families are busy booking their summer hols (holidays) at the moment. That perfect escape to the far away place of sunshine, beach and adventures. Holidaying can cost an eye watering amount of money, so it’s good to shop around early for the best deal. My favourite holiday was in Spain a couple of years …

    Spring is in the air.

    Spring is in the air: these last days have been rather warm and sunny. Spring is my favourite season, maybe it’s because I was born in spring. This season gives me hope, renewed strength and belief that I have what it takes (to have the skills, ability to do something) to make this year the …
