E250: 🎙️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast! I'm Anna, your host, and you're tuning in to Week 26, Day 1 of Your English Five a Day. This series is designed to enrich your active vocabulary with five insightful pieces every weekday.

🌟 Today's vocabulary journey begins with the nouns "rift" and "red herring". Moving on, we delve into the noun phrase "the essence of something". Then, we encounter the adjective "ruthless" and lastly, we explore the verb phrase "to be drawn to something".

🎭 We put these words into practice with today's engaging story, where we meet Jacob, an aspiring playwright, as he navigates the intricate dynamics of a small farming village, weaving mystery and drama into his theatrical masterpiece.
