TALK 2040 SESSION 6
28 July 2022
SESSION SPEAKER: Marco Putzulu Caruanano
TOPIC: Off the cuff talk that evolved into talk about nuclear power plants
These are the principle or most repeated errors from our sixth session.
Before the next session, try and focus on and master one highlight.
![]() | ![]() | |
| 1 | But as I told last time | As I said / mentioned last time |
| 2 | I needed to make the military service | I had to do my military service See: Cambridge English on: make and do |
| 3 | Regarding | Regarding solar panels See: use of the definite article at the British Council |
| 4 | In one side ….but in other side | On one side ….but on the other On the one hand… and on the other |
| 5 | Isotopes | Isotopes |
How to make best use of these language highlights
Don’t try and learn them all, as if learning poetry or rules.
First, just make a mental note of them.
Then the next time you speak English, start to use them mindfully.
For example, select one and focus on it exclusively in every conversation until you get it right.
Once you have mastered it, move on to the next.
The point is not to feel overwhelmed. If you master just one from each session, you are already winning.
You can always practice more highlights later, and focus on each until you master them.
(If you are able, you could try and master one grammar and one pronunciation highlight after each session.)
Enjoy!
