How do you usually spend your evenings during the week?

A natural way to answer

On weeknights I tend to keep things simple. After dinner I like to wind down with a book or some music. Sometimes I catch up on a show, but usually I'm a bit worn out and just want to rest.

Key phrases to use

  • wind down — to relax gradually, especially at the end of a busy day“I wind down with a cup of tea before bed.”
  • catch up on — to do something you didn't have time for earlier, like watching or reading“I need to catch up on my favourite show.”
  • worn out — very tired, with no energy left“After the long shift I was completely worn out.”
