G'day and welcome to a very special episode. In fact, this is the last time our team will be in Argentina. After nearly 5 years of living in Buenos Aires, and two years of pandemic, I can finally return home. So this is the perfect opportunity to talk about one of the most complex ideas in language - the unreal (hypothetical) past. You will probably be familiar with these and been taught these as conditionals, and especially as the third conditional. But there are some tricks to learning them a little more easily. What could I have done differently? What should I have done differently? What would I have done differently. Coulda shoulda woulda. There's no point dwelling on the past as this expression refers to. But anyway, enjoy this reflection of my life and language. And where will my journeys take me next? You'll have to listen to find out.
