Did you know that there's almost NO DIFFERENCE between intonation of a statement and a question?? No wonder it's hard to understand native speakers! In this episode you'll learn the difference between the intonation of statements, YES/NO questions, and WH questions, and you'll also get to practice it, so you can make it your own!
