When we ask someone for a coin or two, we’re asking for a small amount of money.

Speaking out loud will help to improve your English speaking fluency and will make it easier for you to remember new vocabulary.

This bonus episode provides interactive speaking practice for the words and phrases you learnt in #92 Asking for donations (Med).

Don't be shy - just try!

Allan:
Hey Claire, do you have a minute?

Claire:
Sure, what’s up?

Allan:
I’m running a charity cake stall this Friday to raise money for a children’s hospital. It’s part of a community fundraiser I’ve joined. Would you be open to making a small donation?

Claire:
Oh, that sounds lovely, Allan… but I’ve already donated to another charity appeal this week. Sorry!

Allan:
Totally understand — no pressure at all. But if you’ve got a coin or two to spare, it’ll go straight to a good cause. Every bit counts. And hey — I’ll save you the best cupcake.

Claire:
(Laughs) Alright, you got me. I can’t say no to a cupcake!
