About this episode
I think you’re gonna like this lesson. I assume you’ve heard a lot of this vocabulary before, but I reckon maybe you haven't used all of it. In that case, I guess you may need to grab a notebook!

You know, English has a ton of words for expressing thoughts, opinions, guesses, feelings, and assumptions. So today, we’re going to break those down — in a fun, simple way — so you can use them naturally in your own English conversations.
