On this day we will speak on two different videos. Both of them are on topics that students have asked me about.
First: How complicated is the history of your native language. Please tell us about this.
This is a 10minute history of the English language. This history is super complicated, but kind of fun!

Second: Differences between American and British accents (with some Canadian jokes in there too)
Please compare the different accents in your home country. Be ready to give some examples.

You do not need to watch this whole video, but watch until about 4 min at least so you can hear them make fun of Canadians.
See you in class.
