Alright, so the next section is the setting. So we're going to talk about the time, the location, the place of this picture. Okay, so here we go. In this picture, it's daytime. It's a fairly cloudy day, so it's difficult to know exactly what time it is. However, because it's bright outside the time could be somewhere between mid morning and mid afternoon.

It's clear and dry weather. Okay, so this is a little bit of detail about the setting. Before we talk about vocabulary. Let's do some pronunciation. Repeat after me. In this picture, it's daytime.

It's a fairly cloudy days so it's difficult to know exactly what time it is. However, because it's bright outside the time could be somewhere between mid morning and mid afternoon. It's clear and dry weather. Okay, so this is just a little bit information. We'll go into more about the setting in a moment. But first, let's take a look at a few words.

Right? It's a fairly cloudy day. Right? So fairly could be like somewhat, right? It's not like maybe it's super clean. Maybe it's not super cloudy, but it's somewhat cloudy.

Either way, let's put it into the dictionary and make sure we understand the word fairly. Right? Here we go. Alright, so one meaning is with justice. That's not quite what we're looking for. Two quite a highly, highly Aha.

So when we say it's fairly cloudy, it's somewhat cloudy or you know, there are a lot of clouds in the sky might not be completely covered, but to a high degree or a high amount, there are a lot of clouds. Okay, so some synonyms reasonably passively tolerably. Yeah. Okay. So fairly here to a high degree and we're talking about the amount of clouds in the sky. Okay.

So it's somewhat cloudy or there are a lot of clouds in the sky. So it's difficult to know what time it is, but it's bright. So we could say the time is probably between mid morning and mid afternoon. So what does that mean mid morning and mid afternoon. If we gave it actual numbers, I would say between 1030 and maybe like 230, maybe between 10:30am and 2:30pm. Right.

Okay, so that would be mid morning to mid afternoon. Right let's continue more with this setting. The location is outside on a paved road near a sidewalk. In the background, we can see a high wall. This wall is almost completely covered in graffiti. It's possible that gangs painted this graffiti to establish their territory or to send a message.

Okay, that's the more information before we do vocabulary. Let's do some pronunciation repeat after me. The location is outside on a paved road near a sidewalk. In the background, we can see a high wall this wall is almost completely covered in graffiti. It's possible that gangs painted this graffiti to establish their territory or to send a message. Okay, so that was pronunciation.

Now let's talk about some vocabulary. Okay, so the location of this picture, the place the setting the environment, it's on a paved road. And a paved road means that it's not dirt right. Let's take a look at an image to make sure we know what a paved road is. paved road means it has a surface and it's probably like asphalt or pavement or tar or different materials that they use to make roads. Some places They'll use cement, right?

Maybe they even use bricks. So it just depends on the location. But this is a paved road. All right, so let's go back. It's nearest sidewalk. Over here.

If we look at the arrow over here, we have the sidewalk, right all along there. With the arrow back. All right, so in the background, we see a high wall. Ooh, this high wall looks interesting. very artistic. It's almost completely covered in graffiti.

Hmm. So the images and the drawings on the wall are graffiti. So first, let's look at the definition of the word graffiti, and then we'll take a look at some pictures. So let's find it here. Alright, let's go to the meaning of graffiti. All right.

Here we go. It's writing. rines scribbled scratched or sprayed illicitly elicit illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public place. Okay, so it's drawing and putting stuff up on the wall, maybe painting illicitly. So it's against the law. All right, let's quick look up.

What does illicitly mean? All right, in a way that is contrary to or forbidden by law rules or custom. All right, so the city doesn't want you to put graffiti on the walls and all these places, because it makes it look kind of junky right and and run down. Sometimes, cities I have seen they will have places specifically made for graffiti, but usually it's not something that cities want. So let's put in graffiti. It's very colorful, and sometimes it's you know, very artful.

Turistic right? And specifically, let's put in gang graffiti. All right, so Hmm, gang graffiti, a lot of crazy stuff that they might be trying to send a message, or in the description, we said establish their territory, which means there might be more than one game that they share, or they're next to each other in an area. And they want to keep the other game out, though, as graffiti, and just to make sure we know what we're talking about gangs, gangs are people that, you know, they get together and they don't always do the greatest of things. They break the law and they're all like toughen drugs and money and all that stuff. So it's common to say gang graffiti, but there's also graffiti that is actually quite, quite beautiful, right?

Artistic and this is Probably, I don't think you say illegal graffiti, but it's graffiti, right? It's spraying or painting on the wall. And if it's graffiti that is like for a gang, then it makes the neighborhood much more low quality. People don't want to live in an area where there are a lot of gangs around. Okay, so let's go back. Right.

Okay, so it's possible that gangs painted this graffiti to establish, to create, to show to maintain their territory, or to send a message, right, maybe they're sending a message to the other gangs that hey, this is our territory stay out or we're gonna have a problem, something like that. Alright, so let's move forward. In this setting, here we go. On top of the wall, there's barbed wire. This makes the wall higher and more difficult to climb at the very top of the world, wires section of the wall, there are V shaped barbed wire arms. These deter and prevent people from climbing the wall and attempting to get to the other side.

Okay, before we do vocabulary, it's time for pronunciation repeat after me. On top of the wall there is barbed wire. This makes the wall higher and more difficult to climb. At the very top of the wire section of the wall, there are V shaped barbed wire arms. These deter and prevent people from climbing the wall and attempting to get to the other side. All right, so let's talk about some vocabulary.

So we have the wall and the wall has two sections, the bottom part, which could be made of cement, maybe mixed in with stone, I don't know. But on top, we have this wider section. Hmm, a little bit blurry, but I think we can see it. And on top of the wire sec section, we have these V shaped pieces and they're called V shaped barbed wire arms. Alright, so let's just make sure let's take a look at one and make sure it's clear what we're talking about. Let's take a look at the picture.

Actually, just a second. There we go. Okay, V shaped barbed wire arms. All right. So this is the part on top of the fence. That is in the shape of a V, right?

And it allows barbed wire to extend over on both sides. Right? And we should probably make sure we know what barbed wire is, right? Let's take a look. barbed wire. All right, so this is barbed wire, and along the sections is fairly smooth here, but then it gets sharp like here.

And each one of these things is called a BB. And it's meant to hook clothing, you know, poke you cut you and make it very uncomfortable to climb over this fence. So this is these are barbed in the barbed wire, fence, right. Okay. And when we were talking about the V shaped barbed wire arms, they put barbed wire through these insects with these kind of holes here where they can connect the barbed wire and yeah, it keeps people out. Sometimes they only have it on one side.

But this this example they have too. So it's like a V, or I guess you could say like a y two. Right? So let's go back. Okay, but the very tops of the wire section when we talk about the wire section we're talking about not the cement or the rock section, or the concrete section, we're talking about the wired part on top. And these deter and prevent Hmm, what do these words mean?

First, let's look up Dieter. We can kind of guess since it's a wall that we don't want people to be coming in, right? So let's take a look. Look up deter. Right deter means to discourage someone from doing something right by instilling doubt or fear of the consequences. Alright, so if you look at this wall, let's go take a look at it.

If you See the barbs, the barbed wire and you know what barbed wire is, you know that this is going to be a headache to climb or try to climb over this wall. You're going to get scratched your your clothes are gonna get dirty and maybe messed up or ripped and all that stuff. So if you see it, you might be deterred. You might be turret deterred from climbing over it. You see it and it's like, Huh, it makes you think ah, is it worth it? Is it worth the consequences of getting cut up and maybe stuck?

Let's hear the pronunciation. deter one more time. deter deter, right? Okay. So DD deters to discourage synonyms prevent Ah, that's the other word we're going to be looking up. Prevent.

Stop put a stop to avert nip in the bud fend off turn aside. All right, since we're here let's look at prevent Let's hear the pronunciation. Prevent One more time present, prevent, okay? Keep something from happening or arising. So deter and prevent are quite similar, right? When I think of deter, I think of something kind of visual that makes you think.

And you're like, Hmm, I don't know if I want to do that. and prevent is quite similar as well because you look at something like, Huh, but at the same time the barbed wire serves the function of preventing and deterring, but also physically, showing people that if you climb the wall, it's gonna be a headache and you're going to probably get hurt and other than have problems. Okay, so these determine prevent people from climbing the wall and attempting to get to the other side. And attempting just means to try right, trying to get to the other side, maybe they want to go whatever's on the other side. They have to climb over the wall, and they see the barbed wire on top and they're like Maybe it's not worth it. Okay, a little bit more on the setting.

Here we go. It's possible that this wall is part of a prison, a military compound or a government facility. Regardless of the location, it is obvious that this place is well protected and has strictly controlled access. All right, okay, so let's do pronunciation. Repeat after me. It's possible that this wall is part of a prison, a military compound or a government facility.

Regardless of the location, it is obvious that this place is well protected and has strictly controlled access. Okay, so let's talk about some vocabulary. Okay, so first, it's possible so maybe, you know, maybe this wall belongs to a prison. Right? Let's just take a look at what a prison looks like. There are different ones and you know, all around the world.

But let's just take a look here and a prison is where people go when they've done something bad or they broke the law and it's usually something very serious. A prison is long term and a jail is short term. Right? Okay, short term, usually under a year for jail and over a year for prison. Okay, so this is a prison this would be inside a prison. Um, let's do prison aerial view.

Aerial view means from the bird's eye view, right from up above. Okay. So if we take a look at this prison, there is a wall or two walls all the way around to keep people out, but mainly to keep people in. Right. Okay, so let's go back to our picture. All right, so it could be a prison, a military compound.

Alright, let's take a look what shows up when we put in military compound? Right? Right. So military compound is just going to be, you know, government when they do stuff with the Army or military Marines or whatever something to do with war, right? So that's like a military compound with all their military gear and equipment and where the troops can sleep and stuff like that. So that is a military compound.

Right and what else do we have a government facility, right government facility would just be like a government building government location or something like that. And regardless of the location, so despite what the details are about the location so it's not Really important that we know exactly what's going on inside. We can just see it's obvious that this place is well protected, right? They put a lot of time, energy and resources into building this huge wall. And it has strictly controlled access. Hmm.

Let's take a look at the word strictly What does the word strictly mean? Right? Let's go to the dictionary, and we'll put in strictly Alright, okay, let's hear the pronunciation. Strictly, strictly, one more time, strictly, strictly, Okay, here we go in a way that involves rigid enforcement or that demands obedience. So you could say a parent is strict, maybe or a bosses strict. They don't, with no exceptions, completely or Absolutely.

Mm hmm. All right. He's been brought up strictly his parents were very strict. They had lots of rules and they didn't let him do anything else. And he had to stay home and come home by like 7:30pm, even though he was 21 years old, something like that. All right, rigid just means like strong, unbending, not very stubborn, unwilling to change.

Rigid enforcement. Alright, so strictly, let's go back. Where are we strictly controlled access? All right, I think we can probably get a nice visual on what is controlled access. So let's take a look for a picture of controlled access. What does it mean?

All right. So you probably need maybe a key code or there are guards or someone blocking the area, right. Let's see control access, we'll say with security guards. And we'll see what how happens. All right, so this is, uh huh. At the airport when you go into a government building sometimes or a high security building, they have controlled access, right?

They have the metal detectors, they have the scanners, they have the security guards who are very willing to take you away if you're doing something that is against the rules, I guess. Right? Could be video cameras, but controlled access means controlling the the entrances and the exits to a certain location. All right, so let's go back. All right. All right.

So we talked about the setting which is the time and the place. Right. So let's talk about more about the guy on the motorcycle. There we go.
