About this listen

 In the podcast episode hosted by Jodi Lee, the confusion between commonly misused words 'accept' and 'except' was tackled. Drawing a clear distinction between the two, 'accept' was defined as a verb that implies receiving or agreeing to something, similar to saying 'yes'. On the other hand, 'except' is either used as a preposition or conjunction, signifying exclusion or leaving out something, which operates like the phrase 'but not this one'. By the end of the engaging episode, listeners were equipped with the knowledge to use these very different yet sounding-alike words accurately, mitigating any future mix-ups.
