In this episode and the next one as well I'll try to discuss a very thorny topic: are study apps really worth your time, money, and effort?
I'll also tell you what my experience was with some of the most popular apps (yes, Duolingo included) and give you pros and cons of all of them.

Season 01 / Episode 02 - Are study apps really worth it? (part 1)

Confest är Australiens största alternativa livsstilsfestival, jag var där över påskdagarna och pratar om det. Min mest transformativa workshop var breathwork och mina olika upplevelser av festivalen. Jag rekommenderar alla att åka dit om de är i Australien och vill uppleva Australien från den mest välkomnande och ögonöppnande sidan. Confest hålls varje påsk.

〈#167〉　道央と道南と道北と道東

MARGARET: Mr. Wilson, I’d like you to meet 
Dr. Edward Smith.
MR. WILSON: It’s nice to meet you, Dr. Smith.
DR. SMITH: Pleasure to meet you, too.
MARGARET: Dr. Smith is an economist. He just finished
writing a book on international trade.
MR. WILSON: Oh? That’s my field, too. I work for the 
United Nations.
DR. SMITH: In the Development Program, by any chance?
MR. WILSON: Yes. How did you guess?
DR. SMITH: I’ve read your articles on technical assistance. 
They’re excellent

LANGUAGE NOTES
• Mr. Wilson, I’d like you … Notice the rising intonation on “Mr. Wilson,” which is used 
to address someone. Listen for the “d” in “I’d like.” This means I would like, which is 
very different from I like. (“I’d like” means the same as “I would like” or “I want.”)
• Dr. Smith is an economist. Notice the stress on “economist.” This content word has 
new information, so it is emphasized. There are four syllables in “economist,” with the 
stress on the second syllable (e-CON-o-mist).
• He just finished writing … “just” means the very recent past. “Just” is usually used 
with a simple past verb because the action is complete. However, it can also be used 
with the present perfect (He’s just finished writing …).
• Development program. Since these two words make a compound noun, the main 
stress falls on “development.”
• By any chance? Means the same as “possibly.” Notice the rising intonation, which is 
used in yes/no questions to confirm that something is true.
