In this episode of the All Ears English podcast, Michelle and Aubrey discuss the common mistake English language learners make with stacked adjectives, specifically the use of "so" as an intensifier. They explain that while intensifiers like "really," "very," and "extremely" can be used after an article, "so" must come directly after a verb. They provide examples of correct usage and emphasize the importance of intonation when using stacked adjectives to convey emotion and add drama to conversations. The hosts also touch on other uses of "so" as a conjunction and preview a related episode on the Business English Podcast. They conclude with a role play set in Fiji to illustrate the concepts discussed and encourage listeners to join their B2 fluency course.
