  • Hello there, Charlie here, wondering how your english pronunciation is going these days?

  • Because if you want to speak more clearly and confidently to reduce those awkward moments where people respond with a sorry, what was that?

  • Pardon?

  • Or can you repeat that please?

  • Then I've got just the thing.

  • I've put together some phonetic pangrams that will help you master all the sounds of British English, and they're completely free.

  • Click the link in the show notes that says improve my pronunciation or head to the britishenglishpodcast.com improvemypronunciation.

  • Here's to a clearer, more confident you why, hello there.

  • Welcome back to the british English podcast.

  • I'm Charlie Baxter, your host, and we're continuing our three part mini series on how to host a brittain dinner.

  • This is part two.

  • In the last bite sized episode, we set the scene for inviting a Brit over from the art of crafting, the perfect invitation to navigating the complex world of british food preferences and menu planning.

  • If you haven't heard that one yet, go back and check it out.

  • As there's obviously a lot to learn in today's one, we're moving on to the next stage, what to do when your british guest actually arrives.

  • We're talking the importance of small talk, why you should hold off on offering them tea, and how to subtly master the fine art of drink refills.

  • We'll also explore the nuances of british humor, the subtleties of polite conversation, and how to ensure everyone feels comfortable without any awkward silences.

  • So get comfy, grab a cuppa, or maybe not straight away, given today's suggestion, and let's jump right in.

  • Let me take a quick break from this episode to ask you if you want to speak more clearly in English because I've got a free resource just for you.

  • I've created a bunch of phonetic pangrams to help you practice all 44 sounds of British English in one go.

  • So if you want to make sure people understand you the first time around, instead of having that terribly uncomfortable sorry, pardon, what was that?
