Welcome to English in a Minute from home.
A parade is a traveling celebration along public streets.
It's a moving party.
Nothing can ruin a parade.
Except, well, rain.
Jonathan, this year I'm entering Washington, D.C.'s original Song-a-thon contest.
Anna, I hate to tell you this, but...
Anna!
I don't mean to rain on your parade, but that contest was last week.
No!
