Episodes 61 to 78 gave you the pieces: rises that are not questions, falls that are not curt, tags that mean "right?", focus words, backchannels that are not agreement, loudness that is not anger, regional melodies, and the small set of real annoyance cues. In real life the pieces arrive together, fast, in a voice you have never heard before, and you have one second to decide: is this person pleased, neutral, worried, annoyed, joking? This episode is a lab. What you will learn: • The reading method • Scenes one to four • Scenes five to eight • Separating melody from attitude • Checking your reading politely • Practice: decode the scene • Listening strategies • Self-check questions to test your ear Level: B1–B2. Self-study: listen, then take the quizzes. Audio voiced with AI from an original script by Dr. Rashmi R Nair.
