I was reading some IELTS questions from this month, the oral exam from September 2020. One of the part 2 questions piqued my interest. So here is a long form investigation. Real English in context. www.realspeak.uk

Rock and roll ain’t noise pollution. Or so I believe. What about yappy or barking dogs? Mopeds or motorbikes? Some more English in context to help you.

I woke up that morning at 06:00, as usual. I went downstairs, had a coffee and had breakfast. Then, I had a shower and got dressed. I went down the stairs, grabbed my keys and went outside. There was something missing on the drive. My car, it was gone. Learn real English in context. www.realspeak.uk

It's early morning here in the UK. It's the beginning of August and it's another typical dark, rainy, dank kind of day. it's quite oppressive it's quite depressing outside but I'm just about to go for a walk. I'm really looking forward to it. I'm anticipating my walk. I await with pleasure the moment when I can leave when I can depart, when I can set out on my walk.

OK, so this might sound crazy, ridiculous, it might be a gaffe or something I shouldn´t do, a faux pas perhaps. I think that this could be a cutting edge, leading, avant-garde discussion though. Furthermore, given that approximately, roughly, more or less, 30% of the English language comes from, or is derived from French, I don´t think this is a bad idea.

www.realspeak.uk   So it's a little bit of a clickbait title, perhaps, and I apologise for that. Clickbait, being something on the internet which is generated to make people click on it. It may be something provocative, it may even be something misleading and I hope that this episode is neither of those two things. It may be a little bit provocative but I don't think it's misleading.

  Hello, hello, hello and welcome to the first one of these podcasts. My name is Andrew and we are going to be looking at some English in context. So, the idea here is that these are going to be sort of weekly, maybe 20, maybe 30 minute long podcasts to really help elevate your English skills. To get you familiar with some new terms as I said in the introduction.
