  • 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.

  • Hi, I'm Neal joining me.

  • Today's Catherine Hi, Catherine.

  • Hello, Neil and Hello, everyone.

  • So tell us what our story is.

  • Well, today story is about treasure.

  • How about that?

  • Majestic.

  • What could be more exciting than treasure?

  • Now let's find out more from this BBC News report.

  • Archaeologists in the Roman city of Pompeii have discovered a treasure trove of good luck charms and fertility amulets that they think may have been used for casting spells by Roman sorcerer.

  • Among the articles discovered where scare of beetles from the Middle East made of AM a fist.

  • So Pompeii is a city.

  • It was in ancient Roman times.

  • It was buried by a volcanic eruption.

  • Later it was uncovered, and now it's an archaeological site, which is visited by thousands and thousands of people every year.

  • Now the archaeologists are still working there, and they have recently discovered a group of objects that were used in magic.

  • They were used for good look, there's bones and skulls and gemstones.

  • And it was all about kind of magic and stuff.

  • A bit of a Harry Potter tool kit they found standing there.

  • Yeah, you should be writing headlines.

  • Okay, You've been looking at this story, and you've picked out three words on expressions being used that we can learn to talk about this story.

  • Yes, we have treasure trove.

  • Cash on dhe unearthed.

  • Okay.

  • Treasure trove, cash and on earth.

  • So your first headline pleased with that expression.

  • Treasure trove?

  • Yes.

  • It's in ABC News.

  • The headline is Pompeii Archaeologist.

  • Archaeologists find sorcerers treasure trove, including fertility charms, treasure trove, large amount of valuable objects found hidden.

  • Yes.

  • So it's all about the hidden things.

  • Treasure.

  • T r E A s u R E is a group of important and valuable items trove T r O V E.

  • This word refers to the fact that they're valuable and they're hidden.

  • Now we've used it here to describe things which are literally underground, and it means a group of really, really valuable objects that you find.

  • Yeah, um, So, apart from the literal meaning which we have here, it's probably used Maurin a figurative sense.

  • Well, it can be Yes, treasure trove if you're not in the habit of finding lots of valuable things underground, which I've got to say has never happened to me.

  • But let's say, Neil, you go into your kitchen at home and you look through the cupboards and you discover this biscuit in that you didn't know about.

  • And it's full of sweets and cakes.

  • The most delicious, lovely things You didn't know about that.

  • It turns out that Mrs Neil had a hidden box of lovely treats.

  • You would say that.

  • That is a treasure trove.

  • Treasure trolls Sweet in your very own kitchen.

  • Yes.

  • So that's the way we can use it in everyday sense.

  • Cem, Cem, Hidden things which are actually valuable to you.

  • Yeah.

  • I won't be inviting Rob around.

  • Okay, let's have our next headline.

  • Okay.

  • Next headline comes from archaeology.

  • Cash off.

  • Ritual objects discovered at Pompeii.

  • Okay, Cash quantity, off.

  • Hidden things.

  • I know this word.

  • Cash means money, doesn't it?

  • Well, it does, but not today.

  • Near the pronunciation of cash is the same as the money cash, but the spelling is different.

  • It's C A C h E c a c A G, but we pronounce it cash.

  • And it also is about hidden things, things that which are together, a group on they.

  • No one knows what you hide them for whatever reason, but not necessarily valuable things.

  • Well, no, it's things that you don't want to be found.

  • Now, there's one phrase that we often use and that is a cash off weapons.

  • So we use a cash to refer to a store off weapons, guns, ammunition, bombs, whatever that somebody has hidden either because they're illegal or because they don't want the enemy to find them, they want to use them later.

  • So a cache of weapons is hidden armory.

  • Okay, we also see this word, and probably people will know this from when their computers don't work properly.

  • Yes.

  • Now, cash cash on your computer.

  • I'm not a computer scientist, but it is where your computer stores some data in a place that you don't see it often.

  • If your computer's performing a bit slowly, you can clear your cash, and it will get rid of this heaven stuff, and your computer will probably work a bit better.

  • I'm told.

  • Okay.

  • Now, um, talking of cash and talking of treasure trove Yes, We have an absolute treasure trove and cash off wonderful videos where you can learn all sorts of idiomatic language.

  • If that is what you're interested, It's called the English.

  • We speak and you confined the playlist where, Catherine, you can find it by clicking on the link.

  • In the comments Down below on now, our final headline with the word unearth, please.

  • Yes, We're going to the sun.

  • The headline is magical.

  • Pompeii Mystery as sources.

  • Sorcerers Treasure trove unearthed with bones, skull charms and magic gems for seduction rituals.

  • Okay.

  • Wow.

  • Unearthed.

  • Meaning found hidden after a search.

  • So another word to do with it.

  • Finding stuff?

  • Yeah.

  • Lots of words.

  • Today they're all about hidden stuff being found or stuff being hidden because you don't want it to be found.

  • So this would unearthed u N e a r t h e d.

  • Now this the core word is Earth E a r t h Earth, meaning our planet.

  • But it also means the soil is another word for it.

  • So if you go to somewhere and you dig to find something that you think is buried underground, the stuff that you're moving is earth.

  • Okay?

  • If you unearth something, you remove the earth so you find it so again, in the literal sense.

  • Thes archaeologists were moving earth with shovels and brushes on.

  • They removed all this earth on.

  • They found this treasure great.

  • So once again we have a literal example of a word which is probably more often used in a figurative sense complete.

  • Have an example of that, Of course.

  • So is you.

  • Unearth something.

  • You find something that was hidden and I fuego into Rob's Rob's drawers.

  • You don't want to go into Rob's drawers, but if you do, you're likely to unearth.

  • Best get rappers and sweets, chocolate pay, chocolate bars and all kinds of things lots of legs from that treasure trove in my house, it is never far away if he hears about it and try and get it.

  • Okay.

  • Could you now give us a recap of our vocabulary?

  • Please?

  • I can.

  • So we had a treasure trove.
