Hearing practice #4c I like doing hearing tests and I try to type down what's been said in the video and see how accurate I get the words, I would like you to correct my mistakes please, here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKKUpUMODeI Cornpop pops, obviously, but it also jumps into the air and summer salt, and for the first time 2 French scientists have figured out the physics of that. First, the heart-hole splits because of the pressure of hidden water vapor, the vapor is what makes the pops up, then the sudden puffy expansion works like a muscle, bolting the corn into the air, the researchers have equations for all of this, temperature, force, pressure, so makes popcorn a very good tool for teaching Physics, and still tasty, popcorn anyone?

About the word: Caveat

I have been hearing/seeing that word grow in popularity in the past months, did it recently became part of the daily vocabulary for English speakers? was it initially brought up by the media or was it picked up from somewhere else? I never recall seeing that word 1 year ago.

bandito or bandido? Is bandido the translation of English bandito? Is it the same or there's a small difference?

Whats the word for insignia? I can't find the matching word for this in English because the translation is the same, the one I'm looking for would be used in this context: Michael Jackson's insignia dance-move was the moonwalk. Ronaldo's insignia celebration is the airplane.

When parking is prohibited on one side of the street so the streets can be swapped, drivers do double park on the other.
