BOB THE CANADIAN
About this episode

In this English lesson we'll look at what makes the city different from the country. I have lived in both places! I have lived in the city, and I currently live in the country. As you are learning English it is always good to learn words and phrases about the city, but it's also good to learn how to talk about the differences between things.

This English lesson will help you learn how to talk about the city and the country, and I'll help you learn many phrases that we use when comparing and contrasting things.

As always this will be much more than an English vocabulary lesson!

I hope you enjoy this English lesson about the city versus the country!

Note: This is the audio portion of a Youtube English lesson which you can watch right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGvOlf2ex-I or find by searching Youtube for, "Bob the Canadian City versus Country"
