Default Re: Explain this sentence

Hi MattHarris and susan53!

Matt, you brought up an interesting few sentences to ask questions about. Susan you did a great job interpreting the sentences and explaining them more clearly. You also pointed out the importance of knowing the difference between spoken and written English. Spoken English is often much more casual and sometimes less clear, as speakers can reference things with their hands or change the tone of their voice in order to clarify what they mean. So reading the text of a spoken conversation can often be difficult, especially if English isn't your native language.
