Ep. 85 Trip Cancelled - How to Use "Supposed to" "Used to" - Learn English Through Stories

"Supposed to" and "used to" are some pretty odd ways that we use the past tense, and I offer many examples of how we used them in this short story I tell about how my wife and son's plans changed. Their trip to Alabama was canceled.  Throughout the video I also explain a few more tricky aspects of the English language.  I explain the difference between every few and every couple. How to use "fast forward" when telling a story. I describe how we use the plural form of brother-in-law. I explain how English speakers will use "reasonable when it comes to prices or paying for something. I also give a preview of the phrasal verb, "break in."
