Shownotes Transcript

How would the same car accident be described in over 15 completely different styles of English?

What are the differences in vocabulary, grammar and organisational structure?

How should I change my voice to read each description?

Let's see how English changes in different situations.

Styles presented include:

  • formal and informal English,
  • news reports,
  • an action movie screenplay,
  • an Eminem rap, a romantic novel,
  • a Shakespeare play,
  • a politician making a speech,
  • a stand-up comedian,
  • Liam Neeson in the film Taken,
  • and Luke in an episode of Luke's English Podcast.
