President Donald Trump is coming to a close.

We've got the language you need to talk about this story.

I'm Catherine and I'm Dan, and this is news review.

Let's hear more about that story from this BBC World Service news bulletin.

Final arguments have been heard in the impeachment trial of President Trump.

The Republican dominated US Senate then adjourned.

The chamber will now almost certainly vote to acquit the president in its concluding vote on Wednesday.

So the impeachment process against President Donald Trump has nearly finished.

Now he's accused of abusing his position on then hiding the evidence he is expected to be acquitted.

That means found out Val not guilty because, in fact, the people making the decision mostly from his party anyway.

Yeah, okay, well, we've got three words and expressions that you can use to talk about this story.

We have sputters some aunt constrain spotters, sham and constrain.

Okay, let's have our first headline then please, let's do it.

So first headline is from the United States, The New York Times Democrats and White House rest cases as impeachment splutters towards a verdict.

Now I'm gonna sell again spotters spot, but but but But it's nice.

Put the put is quite what we call on a matter.

That means it's a word that's spelled or pronounced like the sound that it represents correctly.

That on a mat appear is when a sound a word sounds like a sound.

Okay, so, like, a cat would get me out, I am a Iow Well, we could have clap C l a P sounds like yes, lick is another one click Get one of those Felt like it sounds sputters spelled S P u double T E r s Sounds like it gives you the idea of this sound, which sounds like a car engine when it's kind of trying to get going or is about to stop.

You never want to hear your engine sputtering, but two particular driving along and you're thinking, Oh, please don't stop whatever you do, I'm not there yet.

Yeah, if you're about to run out of petrol.

What, if anything, we're going to get Yeah.

The impeachment is splutters towards a verdict.

It means it's almost there is quite laborious and difficult and a lot of power does it.

Yeah, and it's an idea that it's going forward, this child.

But it's all a bit difficult and hard work, So spotter is kind of Ah, it's a verb of movement and style, isn't it?

You get this, you get this movement, but also that you get the idea that it's not.

It's well, it's Yeah, it's a it's a kind of manner is well, you know, some things buttering.

You know, it's not really making very small than study progress.

Yeah, you can talk of phrases with butter includes something can spot it to ah, halt or sputter to stop.

So that would be like weekly continuing and then and then stuffing Yes, much like maybe maybe a relationship between two people who don't really get on.

And then finally it might sputter to Ah ha, yeah.

Well, let's check out the information on a slide.

Okay, let's go to our second headline then, please.

On Dhe we have another headline from United States.

The publication is deadline on the headline Stephen Colbert stews over Senate's sham impeachment trial.

Sham, False fake for bogus sounds a nice word to say, actually, Sham lovely were to say, a sham spelled S h a m sham.

Now, this is all about fake, false, untrue things.

If you think about fake, we often think about sort of fake handbag Hate watches.

Yeah, that kind of thing where you pay, like, $10.

I got picked up a zoo CI bags, Noguchi Zoo key.

I think it's quite over that bits fall off.

But we don't normally say that objects are sham.

Oh, you know, like the other day When I got a phone call the other day, somebody phoned me up and said, Guess what, Mr.

Dan, you've won a £1,000,000 I was like, No way.

And they were like, Yeah, all we need to send you the money.

They had misspellings all over the place, and their icon wasn't quite right.

I I just I didn't trust it in the end, what with the dodgy phone call and the ridiculous promises and the bad luck and websites, you figured that this was all a sham operation complete Sham.

So something that's set up to look like the real thing, but it actually isn't.

Some operation of a sham, a marriage, some marriage, expression of love.

Yes, if people get married for one day and then they go their separate ways, usually to get someone of Visa, passport something.

Now he's saying that the impeachment trial was sham.

Now that doesn't mean it was set up to be completely a fake.

What is saying is that this trial is called describing as sham because it's lost credibility.

This might mean that it's disorganized, that the people in the trial aren't trustworthy.

Maybe that's corrupt can be that it was corrupt, one sided.
