Some British people might say "I done that!" "It cost me five pound." "We wasn't there." Some people say they are mistakes while some others disagree.
What seems like a simple question: "Do British people make mistakes when they are speaking?", is actually rather complicated. Why is that?
In this programme Wang Fei and William interview Dr John O'Regan, a lecturer in education at the IOE (Institute of Education at the University of London) and try to find out the reasons. You will also have a chance to listen to many British people's opinions about today's question.
What your mouth! Have you been caught saying the wrong thing?
Have you ever heard "Where yam going?" and "I haven't seen yous for ages?" Do you know what they mean? You'll find the answers to this in today's programme.
You will also learn a lot of useful words, expressions and good advice about English learning.
一個有趣的問題：英國人說英語會出錯嗎？為什么有些不正確的英語用法卻不能稱作錯誤呢？在本期節目中，倫敦大學教育學院的 John O'Regan 博士還有 BBC Learning English 的英語專家 Alison Konieczny 將為您解答這個問題。聽一聽專家對英語學習的建議，千萬別錯過！
