We all live in an over-crowded world which is fast approaching eight billion people. Despite that many individuals feel alone and isolated. The BBC made a survey about loneliness, involving 55,000 people from almost 240 different countries. Neil and Sam discuss the findings and teach you new vocabulary.

This week's question

Where is the most isolated inhabited place on the planet? That's the place furthest away from anywhere else with the fewest people living there. Is it:

a) McMurdo Station in Antarctica

b) Siwa Oasis in Egypt's Western Desert

c) The island of Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic

Listen to the programme to find out the answer.

Transcript

Note: This is not a word for word transcript

NeilHello. Welcome to 6 Minute English, I'm Neil.

SamAnd I'm Sam.

Neil

And we are sitting here in New Broadcasting House, in the middle of London. Would you say, Sam, that this is an isolatedplace?

Sam

Oh no, not at all. Isolatedmeans far away from other places and people.

NeilDoes that mean then, do you think, that you can't be lonely here, with all these people around and all these things to do?

Sam

Ah, good question. Can you be lonely in a crowd? Yes, of course, I think you can be because being lonely isn't about physical isolation. I think you can be lonely anywhere if you feel that you are disconnected from the world around you, if you feel that no one understands you. If you are living happily inisolationin The Scottish Highlands, for example, I'm sure you could feel lonely if you came here to London.

NeilWell, loneliness is today's topic. The BBC has just completed a big survey about it which we will learn more about shortly. But first, of course, a question: Where is the most isolated inhabited place on the planet - by which I mean the place furthest away from anywhere else with the fewest people living there. Is it:

a) McMurdo Station in Antarctica

b) Siwa Oasis in Egypt's Western Desert, or is it

c) the island of Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic

What do you think, Sam?

SamI've got absolutely no idea, so this is just a guess - I think it's the one in Antarctica. I'm going to go with that.

NeilWell, we'll have the answer later on in the programme. Loneliness is seen as a big problem for the mental health of the population, so much so that the British government has a minister for loneliness. But which age group suffers most from loneliness. Here is a BBC report about the research.

James Gallagher, BBC Health and science correspondent

There is a common stereotypethat loneliness affects only the old and theisolated. It does, but what this experiment also shows is that loneliness is felt throughout life. People aged between 16 and 24 experience loneliness more often and moreintenselythan any other age group.

NeilSo according to the research, Sam, which section of society is most affected by loneliness?

SamThis might be a surprise, but it's 16 to 24 year olds.

NeilI was surprised by that because like many, I would've guessed that it was older people.

Sam

The reporter did say that that was a stereotype. Astereotypeis nothing to do with stereo music, but it's the noun we use to describe a very simple and basic judgement of someone and their character and personality based on their age, nationality, profession and so on. So astereotype of British people is that we can't cook, we have bad teeth, we are very reserved and never say what we mean.

Neil

I don't know what you mean, my cooking is wonderful, Sam. And the stereotypeis that old people get lonely.

Sam

Much like the stereotypes of British people, this may be true in some cases - I've eaten some of your home-cooked meals remember, Neil - but it's not true for the majority. It is young people who feel lonely more often and more intensely.Intensely here means strongly. The feeling of loneliness is stronger in young people than older people.

NeilThe reporter goes on to give some explanation for why young people might be more lonely.

James Gallagher, BBC Health and science correspondent

Researchers from the University of Manchester who analysed the data, suggested feeling lonely may plaguethe young because it's a time of identity change.Figuring outyour place in the world and of learningto regulateemotions.

Neil

He says that feeling lonely may plagueyoung people, what does he mean there?

Sam

If you are plaguedby something, it means that it troubles you, it bothers you and not just once, it's something that happens continually or repeatedly.

Neil

And he says this may be because at that age we are still figuring outour place in the world. We are trying to understand the world and what we are supposed to do with our lives.

Sam

He also suggests that younger people have not yet learned how to regulatetheir emotions, which is another way of sayingto control their emotions.

Neil

Right. Time to review this week's vocabulary, but before that let's have the answer to the quiz. I asked: Where is the most isolatedinhabited place on the planet? Is it:

a) McMurdo Station in Antarctica

b) Siwa Oasis in Egypt's Western Desert or

c) the island of Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic

What did you say, Sam?

SamI said a).

NeilWell, I'm afraid to say the answer is actually c) the island of Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic. It has a population of fewer than 300 and it's only accessible by a 6-day voyage by ship from South Africa.

SamSo not a popular place for a weekend break!

Neil

Indeed not. Now it's time for a recap of our vocabulary. The first word was isolatedwhich Tristan da Cunha certainly is. It means far away from other place and people.

Sam

Then there was stereotype the noun for a simplistic view of person or group based on their nationality, age, profession and the like.

NeilIntensely means strongly.

Sam

Being plaguedby something means it causes you problems and difficulties.

Neil

If you are trying to figure something out, you are trying to understand it.

Sam

And to regulate something means to control it.

NeilWell, sadly, that's the end of the programme. Hopefully you won't feel too lonely without us, remember we are always here on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, our App and of course the website bbclearningenglish.com. See you soon. Goodbye.

SamBye!
