102. How To Soften Your English (If You Need to!) Part 1

Being able to make your English less direct when required is an
important part of speaking English internationally. Different

a little rude, even though I'm sure that would never be your
intention.

about how you can soften your English if you need to. In this
episode we will look at:


Using Could to form polite suggestions

Using Wouldn't in negative sentences

Using Might/May for desires



I hope it's useful!
