  • Hello and welcome to Six Minute English, I'm Neil.

  • And I'm Rob.

  • We're going to be looking at a letter from the English alphabet.

  • It's a letter which has a particular meaning when used at the end of a piece of informal writing,

  • such as letters, emails, texts, and messages.

  • Oh, I'm very excited.

  • Yeah, very good, very good, Rob.

  • My expectations are really high.

  • Yep, that's another good one.

  • Is it an extraordinary letter?

  • Okay, thank you, Rob.

  • That's enough of your jokes.

  • I'm getting exacerbated.

  • Now you've got me at it.

  • Well, no prizes for guessing what letter we're focusing on today.

  • Why?

  • No, it's not why.

  • No, no, I didn't mean the letter why.
