Ep.120: Amazing Words I Learned From Taylor Swift Songs (Part I)

This episode will be vocabulary-focused. And specifically, about the words I learned from Taylor Swift’s songs. Before I start, if you don’t like her or her songs, that is none of my business, to be honest. You don’t have to like her. I like her songs and they helped me to improve my English because she doesn’t use just basic vocabulary and it is really easy to learn and remember when you can listen to it in the songs again and again. And I am almost 100% sure that you will learn some new vocabulary, useful vocabulary, today too. So let’s go!
