A Brit Difficult is a podcast for intermediate learners of English that focuses on British English. Too often, people think of British English speakers all being White and speaking like the Queen, but there is a rainbow of voices and accents in the UK. We'll explore vocabulary and grammar, talk about British culture, and hear interviews with native speakers and English learners from around the UK.
