Hokudai/Cast 263: Tacit Approval


Your Word/Play today deals with three words related to being quiet.

tacit

taciturn

laconic

Your Trilingual Lesson has three words also related to being quiet. In fact, the same three words as in Word/Play. Plus sentences such as:

He gave me tacit approval.

He didn't give me tacit approval.

Did he give you tacit approval?

Who gave you tacit approval?

As an extra bonus, we learn how to say "He," "She," and "It" in Chinese.

Following the Trilingual Lesson we have a new feature. The ESS Production. The ESS Club is the English Speaking Society and many universities in Japan have an ESS Club. They hold speech contests, perform plays, and generally encourage the use of English at their schools. In their first production they are performing a short audio drama called The Wind and the Sun.

Music today is only 時代の超え by おやじ ATB from GBUC.net.
