S05 - 10 Weekend

August 18, 2025 · 20 min

Show notes

Native English speakers answer questions about the weekend.

As usual we have speakers from a variety of countries telling us about their experiences, so we take a look at some of the cultural and linguistic differences between those countries. There’s loads of advanced English vocabulary and grammar to help you to improve your English, but in particular there are lots of really useful natural idioms for you to learn.

The speakers are from Canada, Australia, South Africa, England and Wales, so lots of different accents for you to get some listening practice.
