Episode Synopsis

Here’s a question. Have you ever heard someone say ain’t in a song or a movie? Like, <“Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone,”> or “I ain’t got no time for that”? Maybe you wondered… is ain’t actually English? Well, it sure ain’t in the textbooks, but it is in real life! And I ain’t kidding. Today we’re diving into a word that confuses a lot of English learners - ain’t. It’s not considered “standard” grammar, but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong. In fact, native speakers use ain’t all the time in casual, spoken English, and especially in music, movies, and everyday conversation. So, if you’ve ever asked yourself, “What does ain’t even mean?” - today’s episode is for you.Join my Podcast Learner's Study Group here:  https://www.myhappyenglish.com/plsgVisit my website for over 3,000 free English lessons: https://www.myhappyenglish.com/My AI English Tutor is HERE
