Let's Learn English at the Shopping Plaz...

BOB THE CANADIAN
About this episode

In this English lesson we'll go to a shopping plaza / strip mall! This is part two of a lesson I did a few months ago. Many of you enjoyed it and asked for another.

In my part of the English speaking world we have what are called strip malls or shopping plazas. These are places where all the shops and stores are in a row with the door facing the parking lot. Walk with me as I explain each location and give you a peek inside each restaurant, shop, and store!

In this English lesson I will help you learn words and phrases like: clothing store, nail salon, vacant, to rent, to lease, pizzeria, fast food, drive-thru, big box store, hardware store, garden centre, beer store, animal hospital, juice bar, pharmacy, and many more!

I hope you enjoyed this English lesson about shopping plazas!

Note: This is the audio portion of a Youtube English lesson which you can watch right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd4yiK3kFVM or by searching Youtube for, "Bob the Canadian Shopping Plaza"
