  • Did you hear that word?

  • Presenter.

  • Today we're going to be talking about jobs and the different kinds of English words for different jobs,

  • like presenter, for example.

  • We'll look at some of the different ways that words for jobs can end,

  • And we'll also bring you a top tip to help you learn vocabulary.
