  And welcome to my podcast where we try to help you to understand the English language in a better way, to help you to communicate both in your spoken English and your written English.

  And we do that by looking at grammar expressions, idiomatic phrases, phrasal verbs, and everything else.

• 00:28

  And we also talk about pronunciation.

• 00:30

  And today, this podcast has brought to you care of the letter J.

  And when we mention the letter J, people think there are not so many words beginning with J, but you'd be wrong.

• 00:42

  There are lots and lots of words and some really interesting words.

• 00:45

  So we'll give them to you today, and we'll give you the sounds and the pronunciation and hope that will help you with that letter.

  This podcast sponsored by the letter J.

  So lots of people's names begin with the letter J.

• 01:17

  John, James, Jennifer, Jack.
