#185 Implied Meaning in English

The Level Up English Podcast ·

2022/10/12

As you might know, English isn't like how we find it in textbooks. In day-to-day conversations, we often don't speak in full sentences, and so much of what we say is implied (this means, it's hinted at without actually saying it).In this episode, I look at some examples of implied meaning or 'language ambiguity' and teach some phrases you can use in different situations.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast185Sign Up for Free Lessons -

#182 TV Series to Improve Your British English (Part 2)

The Level Up English Podcast ·

2022/09/28

I spoke about 14 TV shows to improve your British English in episode 22 of the podcast.Since then, I've got a lot of requests to make a Part 2. To be honest, I don't watch much TV so I struggle to make a good list. Of the TV series I do watch, many of them aren't good examples of British English (or even English in general, such as 'Vikings'!)My general advice is, rather than watching something that will improve your English, just watch something that you enjoy.

#179 Overweight Children... (An IELTS Writing Question)

The Level Up English Podcast ·

2022/09/14

A listener requested I respond to an IELTS Writing Part 2 question in an episode, but rather than answer the question in the exam style, I'm allowed to ramble on in my usual way and discuss both sides of the question.The idea here is that it might help you become clear on how you can answer similar questions for yourself. Even if you're not taking the exam, it might be interesting to hear my thoughts on this difficult topic! What do you think about it?Show notes page -
