When people meet for the first time, there are a few common questions that get asked.
“Where do you live?” “What do you do as a job?” “Will you tell me about your family?“
English Can Help You Talk To The People You Love
Talking about these simple questions helps to build a connection between people. When you meet again, you may talk about more important or personal things. All people want to connect to other people and talking is a great way to do that. These connections could be with co-workers, friends, or family. One reason people learn English is to find someone to love! This is one of the best reasons to learn English: so that you can talk to the people that you love.
But even if you speak the same language, it can be difficult to always communicate perfectly. When you understand the Five Love languages, your relationships will improve.
This series of Spotlight English programs is based on the work of Dr. Gary Chapman and his book The Five Love Languages. In this series we look closely at each love language and how it affects your life. We also look at examples of how knowing these love languages can change your life.
