In this episode, you’ll learn natural alternatives to the word “expensive.” Many learners repeat the same basic word, even when native speakers would choose something more precise. I explain when each expression is appropriate and how it is used in real conversations.
This lesson will help you speak more confidently when discussing money, value, and cost at work or socially. Ideal for intermediate and upper-intermediate learners who want more precise spoken English.
