Olympiad: sound, light, heat, electricity and magnets ★★★, sentence 4

Picture Cerys in Cardiff in a storm: "It's chucking it down, mun, and the thunder's a million miles off": "chucking it down" means pouring with rain, "mun" means mate, and "a million miles" is hyperbole, so she should count the seconds instead.

Who acts: you, storm, thunder, chucking, mun, million miles · What happens: picture, chuck down, be, mean, pour, count · To what, where: Cerys, Cardiff, same, million miles, mate · Speech: someone speaks here
