Welcome to Slow English Daily, the podcast where you learn English by listening to slow, clear and simple spoken English. This is episode fifteen, and today we talk about describing people in English.
You will learn vocabulary for height, build, hair, face and age, the full range of personality adjectives from easy-going to stubborn, and something the textbooks never teach: which words are rude in English even when the translation in your own language is perfectly normal. You will also learn the softeners that let you say something negative without sounding harsh, and how to give and receive a compliment.
Key phrases from this episode: He's the one in the green jacket. She's got long curly hair. She's in her early thirties. He's very easy-going. He can be a bit difficult sometimes. That colour really suits you. She's really easy to talk to.
This is English listening practice for ESL and EFL learners at A2 and B1 level. Everything is spoken slowly, in simple words, with no difficult grammar. New episodes every week.
