Hi everyone! We’ve recently looked at how we can express our opinion about things here and here. Now we can practice all that, maybe on this question: is it money which makes the world go round?

A short and “funny” animation of the World Wildlife Fund, that tries to alert society about Human greed and selfishness, in the search for money and pleasure at any cost, that is destroying the worldwide biological and ecosystems of the Web of Life.

And do you know how to pronounce money the right way? Listen and practice!

Listen or hear? Do you know which word to use? These verbs may seem the same, but we use them differently in English.

Listen hear

To listen, is quite an active thing. You’re really concentrating when you’re listening to a piece of music, really thinking about it as you’re listening.

To hear is a little bit more passive. You sort of receive the soundwaves into your ears, whether you decide to or not.

Now beware of the pronunciation of the word listen! It has a silent T!
