In this episode, Iâm joined by my husband, Lucas, for another Preposition Partyâa casual, conversation-based way to learn common verb + preposition combinations in American English.
Youâll hear natural examples of everyday phrases like look forward to, be good at, prefer ⊠over, listen to, and get rid of, along with gentle corrections and explanations that help these patterns stick.
This episode focuses on how Americans actually use prepositions in real life, so you can stop guessing and start sounding more natural when you speak.
Perfect for intermediate learners who want to build confidence with small words that make a big difference.

Then I tell you about my recent trip to Ireland and Tenerife, where I stepped way out of my comfort zone.

We live in a day and age that is driven by science and technology, yet people are still superstitious. According to a study I read by YouGov, 9% of Americans claim to be superstitious, while another 35% admit to not being very superstitious, but somewhat. That makes over 40% of individuals in the United States somewhat superstitious.
