    Man-Eating or Man Eating? Compound Adjectives Explained

    In this episode, I talk about how small details in English—like hyphens—can completely change the meaning of a sentence. We look at examples like man-eating vs man eating, and I explain how compound adjectives work in everyday English. I also go over: • When to use hyphens before a noun • Why we say a seven-day trip but the trip is seven days long • Common compounds like see-through, well-made, stress-free, and last-minute • Personality adjectives such as absent-minded, big-headed, and thin-skinned • Informal expressions you might hear in real conversations This episode is great for B1–B2 learners who want clearer writing, more natural speech, and fewer grammar doubts about hyphens. Try this after listening: Make three sentences with number + noun compounds (for example, a two-hour meeting). Change a phrase into a compound adjective (plans at the last minute → last-minute plans). Say your sentences out loud and notice how the words connect when they come before a noun.

The conversation covers various themes, including human interaction with technology, activism and symbolism in art, the impact of striking images, improving English speaking skills, balancing language consumption and production, language learning and pronunciation, and managing anxiety in language learning.
