BBC 6분영어의 금주 주제인 Living with debt은 개략적으로 다음의 개요를 갖고 있습니다.
무언가를 사기 위해 돈을 빌린 적이 있나요? 많은 사람들이 집이나 자동차를 사는 등 큰 구매를 할 때 돈을 빌려야 합니다. 이렇게 돈을 빌리면 시간이 지나면서 갚아야 하는데, 갚아야 할 돈을 '빚'이라고 합니다. 요즘 생활비가 점점 더 비싸지면서, 어떤 사람들은 공과금이나 식료품 같은 일상적인 지출을 위해서조차 돈을 빌려야 하는 상황에 처하기도 합니다. 때로는 이 빚이 통제 불능 상태가 되어 불안과 스트레스를 유발하기도 합니다. 닐과 피파가 이 주제에 대해 이야기하며 새로운 어휘를 알려드립니다.

(Have you ever borrowed money to buy something? Many people have to borrow money to make big purchases, like buying a house or a car. When you do this, you have to pay the money back over time ? the money you owe is called a debt. With the current cost of living getting increasingly high, some people are having to borrow money even for everyday purchases like bills and food. Sometimes this debt can get out of control, which causes anxiety and stress. Neil and Pippa discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.)
