Last night I was having a chat with one of my cousins about a recent business trip she had to Japan. She was telling me about a meeting she'd had during that trip. What was interesting was the language she used when talking about that meeting. And it made me think that would be an interesting topic for How to. So today we're going to look at a particular kind of language you can use for telling an anecdote or a story. What is unusual about the language we use for this is that it doesn't seem to follow the rules of grammar. Now to help me out in this I need the assistance of my colleague William. Hello William. Hello Callum. Now William had an interesting experience last night and I'm going to ask him to tell us about it but I want you to listen very carefully to what he says. Listen particularly for the verb forms.
