Certainly, in English, pronunciation and spelling do not change depending on age or position. However, like Japanese, English expressions also vary depending on the person and are used differently. This book presents five different English conversation expressions according to relationships, situations, and feelings, with [politeness level indicators] on facing pages. By comparing and learning from polite language to slang, you can learn the richness of English and the native speaker's sense of language. Instead of "textbook English" that is correct but unnatural, this book contains only the phrases that native speakers actually use. All phrases are recorded on the CD, so you can clearly confirm the tone that changes depending on the words. ◎ About the Author ◎ # Michael Critchley Born in British Columbia, Canada.
