Learn English by playing Final Fantasy 7! Let's play and learn!
source: English Lessons with Alex (engVid) 2016年12月12日
Looking for a FUN way to learn English? Have you tried video games? That's right! In this lesson, I'll teach you English from the popular game Final Fantasy VII. This game has a great story and lets you "speak" with many characters about a variety of issues. Because of how interactive it is, you can really learn a lot of English from the game, especially vocabulary, expressions, and slang. I'll go over the first half hour of the game with you, and explain the English that the characters use. I think this is a great way to learn English: it's fun, it's engaging, and it forces you to learn key phrases and vocabulary. In a way, it's like traveling to an English speaking country! If you enjoy this video and want to see more like it, stick around until the end to see my views challenge!
