The real English of emails and messages, in slow, clear English — hope you're well, just a quick one, keep me posted, let me know, sorry for the late reply, best, kind regards, cheers. An English learning podcast episode you can take on a walk or a long drive, because there is nothing on screen to miss. Taught through You've Got Mail.

This episode covers the story of You've Got Mail, the romantic comedy about the owner of a small New York bookshop and the heir to the superstore chain that is putting her out of business, who are, without knowing it, each other's anonymous email pen-friends — plus a vocabulary lesson built right into that story: the English of emails and messages, from "hope you're well" and "just a quick one" to "keep me posted", "sorry for the late reply" and "best".

Perfect for intermediate English learners who enjoy movies and want a slow, clear, podcast-friendly way to improve their English listening comprehension and vocabulary on the go — no video required.
