Hi,
In your web site"Word on the Street" videos I don't see the section "Seat o the Street" that is always transmitted by television. I find it very interesting and useful for my school lessons. I hope you can help me.
Thanks

Hi Linodip,
I'm afraid 'Seat on the Street' was one of the sections of 'Word on the Street' that we decided not to include on the website. I'll mention it to my colleagues who work directly on this series, but I suspect it's a final decision.
Sorry about that.
Best wishes,
Adam

Hello,
Yes, you can! However:

  • if the question is about an area of language etc. then you might be better off asking it on the relevant page of our English grammar section
  • the question should probably be about learning English
  • it should follow the house rules

Best wishes,
