In this, my fourth episode, I explore one type of English language word-play known as Oxymorons. These word pairs are often used to add emphasis to a thought or the second word in the pairing.

As always, I encourage all of my listeners to ask questioins and leave comments or suggestions via email (at soenglishpod@gmail.com) or by leaving comments in Apple Podcasts or Spotify. I also have a new Substack you can join. FInd it at speakingofenglish.substack.com. There you will find posts for each podcast with more explanations and details about the subject covered in the podcast. You can also leave questions or comments there as well. And finally, if you think your friends or family might benefit from the podcast, please share it with them. Please subscribe so you will get each update as they come out.
