Have you had a look at our latest episode? Or maybe, as Australians might say, have you had a squiz at it? Well, get your eyes fixed on this one, as we look at another useful Australian word. This is also a useful moment to talk about and look at dependent or fixed prepositions. We talk about how this is a difficulty for all language learners and how even native speakers of different languages, won't be able to give you an explanation for the reasons they are used. As always, we give you some tips about how to learn fixed and dependent prepositions, and how, according to research, these are actually learned. And also laugh at us, or with us, as we brave some Tagalog pronunciation in our contest to find the most difficult word to pronounce. So, wherever you are in the world, give it a squiz, have a squiz at this episode. And tell us what you think!
