    Should we pay more for chocolate?

    How often do you eat chocolate? It's one of the most loved sweet treats in Europe, but a new EU law could make chocolate more expensive. A business owner, who has small cocoa farms in these places, shares their thoughts and concerns about the new law. We also hear from chocolate lovers about whether they would pay more for their favourite chocolate, and about whether they looked at where their chocolate was produced. Neil and Becca discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary. Read along with this podcast with the free transcript, and practise the vocabulary using the quiz and worksheet: https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/6-minute-english_2026/ep-260312 Improve your speaking confidence and skills with our series 'Beating Speaking Anxiety': https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/beating_speaking_anxiety Subscribe to our newsletter for our weekly highlights: https://www.bbc.co.uk/send/u178220599 and feel free to email us at learningenglish@bbc.co.uk!

    Do You Know How to Ask Great Questions?

    Do you know how to ask great questions? A few years ago, back in 2022, I released an episode called How to Ask Better Questions in English. And today’s episode is an update to that original one. The core idea is the same, because it’s still important, but a lot has changed since then. I’ve changed as a podcaster and an educator, and I think English learners’ needs have changed too. In fact, the way we use English in 2026 is very different from how we used it just a few years ago. We now spend more time in online meetings, working with international teams, and communicating through messages, emails, and AI tools. In this kind of world, the ability to ask good questions matters more than ever. Most people know how to ask questions, but very few people know how to ask good questions. And learning how to do that can change your English, your conversations, and the opportunities you have. Today, we will look at different types of question, what makes a good question, and I’ll give you a lot of useful advice!
