Trying spontaneous conversations

Hi everybody, welcome to a new episode

0:02

of Easy English. So today we wanted to

0:05

try something a bit new. Instead of

0:07

talking about one subject specifically,

0:10

we wanted to go out and just make

0:11

general conversation with strangers on

0:13

the streets. Hopefully, you'll get a

0:16

really good sense of what it's like

0:17

making genuine and real conversations in

0:19

English. If this is a style that you

0:21

personally would like to see more from

0:23

us in the future, or you're a regular
