Today, this expression "a race against time", from the world of sports, is used to designate something that must be done quickly. It indicates that we do something in a short time. We hurry because we are in a hurry and we are ultimately racing against time, we must do something quickly, as quickly as possible.

We will look at some everyday examples so
The first example would be someone who says to you: "Hey! We have 20 minutes to get to the station. It's going to be a race against time, but it's possible." That means, we have 20 minutes to get to the station, because we have a train to catch, so it's going to be a race against time because we're going to have to hurry, we're going to have to go very quickly so as not to miss the train, but it's possible. That means that 20 minutes is enough time to get to the station, but only if we hurry, if we do it quickly.

Another example: "But why are you eating so fast? Slow down. This is not a race against time." Here, by saying this, we are indicating that it is not necessary to do something australia whatsapp number data quickly, there is no point in trying to eat too quickly, because this is not a race against time, we are not timing ourselves to see who will eat the fastest. So, it means: "Don't go so fast, don't go so quickly."

Last little example: "The store was going to close soon, there were people everywhere. It was a real race against time." Here, we understand that the store, the place where we buy things, where we do our shopping for example, was going to close. And since there were a lot of people and everyone wanted to be able to buy their items, their objects or their food, well they had to hurry because otherwise the store would close and we wouldn't have the opportunity or the time to buy what we needed. So, it was a race against time, that means we had to do our shopping very quickly, we had to do it in a very short time. It was a race against time.

What I suggest you do now is practice your pronunciation. Today, we're going to focus on the "on" sound in "contre" or "montre". We have the "on" sound twice, a race against the clock. What I suggest you do, Valentine, who helps me prepare the content, has given us a small list of words in "on" and we're simply going to... I'm going to pronounce them and you're going to repeat after me, copying my intonation, my pronunciation. Let's go.
