\r\nWill tomorrow’s outdoor concert continue? Rain may be likely, cancellation may be unlikely and getting wet may be inevitable — but these three words are not interchangeable.
\r\nIn this short conversational Slow English episode, Martin and Julia compare three precise B1–B2 adjectives for probability, expectation and certainty.
\r\nYou will learn:
\r\nYou will also practise the natural patterns “something is likely”, “it is likely to happen” and “it is likely that…”. The episode explains why unlikely does not mean impossible, why inevitable is much stronger than likely and why “very inevitable” normally sounds unnecessary.
\r\nFinish with a four-situation active-recall challenge and a practical method for replacing vague “maybe” sentences with more precise English.
