About the episode

Of the many sins of English, its prepositions are preposterous. Ivan Aristeguieta is worried about landing 'in' Melbourne 'on' a plane. Wouldn’t he die in a horrific accident? Comedian Takashi 'Waka' Wakasugi explains the beauty and superiority of Japan’s three alphabets over English's measly 26 letters. English language teacher Ai-Lin Bhugun unravels the inane secrets of stacking adjectives and supplies Waka with a practical lesson in pronouncing 'Uluru'. Victory is at hand!
