The real English of wordplay and puns, in slow, clear English — a pun, a play on words, a double meaning, banter, tongue in cheek, witty, quick-witted. An English learning podcast episode you can take on a walk or a long drive, with nothing on screen to miss. Taught through Shakespeare in Love.
This episode covers the story of Shakespeare in Love, the 1998 backstage comedy about how a play actually gets made in 1590s London — the spent advance, the rehearsals at the Rose, the rival writers, and the rewriting that happens on the morning of the performance — plus a vocabulary lesson built right into that story: the English of wordplay and puns, from "a pun" and "a play on words" to "a double meaning", "banter", "tongue in cheek" and "witty".
Perfect for 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.
