I reckon we might've discovered the reason we ask, "What are you thinking?" What do you reckon? Come on a journey with Guest, Kyron, from Brisbane. We learn the common and informal "(I) reckon". Frequently used by Australians and a great one to know. We talk about Kyron's journey through Latin America, experiencing the last World Cup in Argentina. We discuss if Argentines are just Argentina supporters or actual soccer fans? With Oriana we also discuss why intonation might be so important. We talk about different cultures and perhaps even how intonation might be different between the sexes. We discuss why intonation might convey meaning and how this phrase can be used to practice our connected speech. Kyron gives us some tips about what he finds effective for language learning and we look at what we do in our every day life can be used to plan our language learning. What do you reckon? I reckon you might enjoy this one.
