가운데 그중 휘발유는 전주 대비 15.8 상승한 리터당 1629원 기록했다 라고 한국석유공사가

발표했습니다 right Let's talk about average OIL prices Yes so just in time for the wintery weather We're seeing uh you know gas prices going up for the Fifth consecutive week now so they've been consistently on the

rise gas prices up like the headline says 15.81 to about an average of 1,629 won per liter And diesel also up to about 1,591 won per liter and that's five consecutive weeks of increases there Now The Reason for that

is uh experts are saying that International OIL prices are actually going down they they fell this week Because the US dollar is actually strengthening um probably due to the you know the election win of uh president Trump And also OPEC the organization that

decides um kind of the output of OIL in the middle east revised down ITS Outlook for Global OIL demand So you can expect OIL prices to probably uh turn that Absolutely 국제유가가 그대로 바로 반영이 되지는

않습니다. 국내 휘발유 가격이나 경유 가격은 국제 유가가 보이는 변동을 한 1, 2주 후쯤에, 2, 3주 후, 어 2, 3주

후쯤에 이제 반영을 하게 된다라고 볼 수 있는데요. 대체적으로 어 근데 이제 가장 최근에는 국제 유가가 조금 떨어진

모습이기 때문에 우리도 그러면은 아마 휘발유 가격, 경유 가격이 한 2, 3주 후에는 좀 떨어지지 않을까 이렇게

기대를 하는데 일단은 5주 연속 상승을 한 모습입니다. 가장 최근 평균 휘발유 가격이 1,629원이었다네요. 연속이라는 단어를 한번

볼까요? 연속, 뭐뭐 했을 때 이런 단어들을 다 사용할 수가 있겠고요. 여기서는 에다가 에다 'for the fifth consecutive week' about the week. Right. So we're comparing gas prices on a weekly basis, so prices this week are up compared to the week before, meaning prices previously were earlier. Yes, and you

could say a few weeks yeah yeah exactly so with your friends you could just say last week or the week before or the previous week you I don't think you would use the week prior when you're just talking with your friends I generally don't no

but this does sound quite formal and newsy So it's used a lot in the News Yeah and and just AS an idiomatic expression just the week prior the day you know the month prior in that order uh you could say the prior week As well you could

say that That's right 네 물론 prior 해도 되겠지만 많은 경우 특히 뉴스에서 the week prior the month prior 그리고 이제 앞에다

compare to까지 붙이면 그 전주에 비해서 전 달에 비해서 아니면은 뭐 작년에 비해서 할 수도 있어요 to the year prior 이렇게 얘기할 수도 있습니다 자 그럼

다시 한번 제가 읽어볼게요 g and rising 15.81 compared to the week prior to 1,291 per L Now let's move on to the next headline

Rise in Gasoline and Diesel Prices in Korea

Average prices of gasoline and diesel increased for the fifth consecutive week.

Gasoline price rose by 15.8 won per liter, reaching 1629 won.

Diesel price also increased to about 1591 won per liter.

International oil prices are falling due to a strengthening US dollar and OPEC's revised outlook for global oil demand.

Despite the expectation, prices have risen for five consecutive weeks, with gasoline reaching an average of 1629 won.
