English Hi, I'm Neil and joining me is Tom.

Today's story is about tropical fruit who doesn't love tropical fruit?

Let's find out some more from this BBC World Service News Bulletin.

If you're a mango lover, you might consider this a good problem to have.

But for farmers in the Philippines, two million kilograms of surplus mangoes has sent prices plummeting, and it's slash their income.

The government, meanwhile, is trying to make sure the excess mangoes don't rots by encouraging people to buy more and cook more.

So the stories about mangoes there are too many mangoes.

In the Philippines, farmers have grown two million kilograms more mangoes than they need.

This is bad for them because it's making the price of mangoes drop, and the government are trying to encourage people to eat more mangoes and cook with more mangoes to get rid of them.

Okay, you've been looking at this story and you've picked out three words and expressions.

Get rid off golden opportunity and sell like hotcakes.

So get rid off golden opportunity and sell like hot cakes.

In your first headline, I will tell you my first headline is from delish dot com food website.

It says Philippines introduced a campaign to get rid off two million kilos of extra mangoes.

If this word means dispose off, why do we just not say dispose of Why do I need this complicated three word?

Would you make some very formal if you said that I get rid off is a very common expression.

If we are rid of something, it means we don't have something.

We're not in a state of owning something.

For example, you've forgotten something I'm not supposed to have my pass on.

So I'm going to rid myself of my past, get rid off my past because after get rid off, we use it now.

So, for example, I was watching a football match the other night.

Yeah, there was only 30 seconds left, and one of the defenders was just playing around with old.

So we shout at him, get rid of it, get rid of it, get rid of it.

Take it away first, for example, in this headline, the Philippines needs to get rid off these mangoes they've got too many on.

They need to be taken away to other places.

Please tell my second headline Very easy for me because the headline is actually our piece of vocabulary.

It's room Enquirer dot net from the business section.

Yes, a golden opportunity is an excellent chance to do something.

Now we will know the word opportunity that golden golden about it.

So a golden opportunity is a really good opportunity.

It's a really great chance that we can take.

Yes, we used Golden to describe things that are good in general.

You might hear about a golden era for, you know, film or movies or something like that.

Yeah, a golden rule is a rule we always follow.

Or a golden handshake is when you get money for entering a job for the first time.

Isn't there connected to the mango itself?

And if you're a mango buyer, it's a golden opportunity.

It's a good opportunity, and it's an opportunity when you could make money from mangoes.

Now have you ever had a golden opportunity?

We would love to hear about it in the comments on this page and, of course, don't forget to subscribe.

This is a golden opportunity for you to never miss anything that Neil I or anybody else doesn't say.

Moving on now to our third and final headline.

Ah, third and final headline is from inquired dot net.

Again, it's actually from the news section.

It says Mangoes sell like hotcakes At D A fruit event D.

A's Department of Agriculture sell like hot cakes, meaning sell quickly due to popularity.

We're talking about mangoes and then comparing them to cakes.

It's not as weird as you think, Neil, because a lot of people like cakes.

Great demand for cakes, especially when they're hot and they know very quickly nice and fresh out the oven.

It's the idea of large quantities of something being sold quickly.

For example, everyone's gonna want to buy hot cakes before they get cold.
