Luke talks about the world of fantasy literature and the writings of JRR Tolkien. Write a 200 word text about a car accident in the style of Tolkien. Luke's English podcast is on every Thursday at 8pm GMT/11am ET /PT.
How would the same car accident be described in over 15 completely different styles of English?
What are the differences in vocabulary, grammar and organisational structure?
How should I change my voice to read each description?
Let's see how English changes in different situations.
Styles presented include:
- formal and informal English,
- news reports,
- an action movie screenplay,
- an Eminem rap, a romantic novel,
- a Shakespeare play,
- a politician making a speech,
- a stand-up comedian,
- Liam Neeson in the film Taken,
- and Luke in an episode of Luke's English Podcast.
