Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast number 1,255 – Talking about Gemstones.

This is English as a Second Language Podcast episode 1,255. I’m your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan, coming to you from the Center for Educational Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California.

Go to ESLPod.com and take a look at our ESL Podcast Store with additional courses in business and daily English. This episode is all about something called a “gemstone,” which is a shiny or colorful piece of crystal. Let’s get started.

Nathan: I’m looking for a gift for my girlfriend. Can you help me pick something out?

Ellie: I’d be happy to. We have a wide selection of jewelry with precious and semiprecious gemstones. Are you interested in something new or antique?

Nathan: I’m not sure. I’m just looking for something nice, something that really reflects our relationship.

Ellie: I understand.
