EP 19 Arvo

A common difficulty of people arriving in Australia is understanding this particular word, "arvo". We often use, "in the arvo" to arrange meetings and social events. In this episode, you will find out what it means and how we use it. We talk about how languages often shorten words, the logic behind it and tips for learning these words. We compare the use of Australian English and different forms of Spanish. We talk about our experiences learning different character languages - the advantages, disadvantages, similarities and differences between English, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. Practice learning and using prepositions of time, see how pattern recognition of words is a key for learning a language and appreciate what each has to offer in cultural understanding. So, whether you're listening to us in the morning, the evening, or in the arvo, we hope you enjoy it.
