REFRESHER COURSE
 
Sally speaks English very well, but she can't remember some words. She asks Peter for help. 

SALLY: Peter, help me please! I want to say something in English, but I can't remember. How do you say "a gota d'água"?
PETER: "The Last Straw".
SALLY: WOW! Thank you, dear!
PETER: My pleasure. By the way, how was your appointment with the dentist?
SALLY: Horrible! I had my....my....oh my gosh, how do you say "dente do siso"?
PETER: Easy! We say "wisdom tooth".
SALLY: True that! So I had one of my wisdow tooth out.
PETER: That's awful!
SALLY: Yes, it is. Well, I guess I need to take a refresher course immediately.
PETER: That sounds like a good idea.


A REFRESHER COURSE is a course to practise and improve skills, especially because you have not used them for a long time.
