  Speaker 2: Koreans live on rice. Heart pop
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: in this context also means rice. So if we ask

  Speaker 2: someone if they've eaten rice, we're basically asking them have
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: they eaten a meal? Okay,
• 4:15

  Speaker 1: to put the puck in front. Can you replace the
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: part with something

  Speaker 1: say beef. Have you
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: eaten beef bogus soil?
