Understanding Grammar - Choices & Prefer...

JACK RADFORD
About this episode
In this week's Premier Skills English Podcast, Jack, Rowan and Rich are at the cinema deciding what film to watch. Jack hates one type of film so Rowan and RIch decide to play a trick on him. The language focus is on words and phrases we use when making choices and talking about preferences. In this week's task, we want you to decide what you would do in three very different situations. Don't forget to listen to the end of the podcast because we have a new football phrase for you to guess.
