    My score was 9/10 :). By the way, I have a doubt, could you help me with it? When you attend a meeting and you would like to comment something, what should you say: "can i say?" Or "can i speak?" Does it sound inpolite? And my joke is: why shouldn't you write with a broken pencil?

    Sorry I don’t have any joke to tell 😆 but I can say that I learned a new word « canopy » instead of « umbrella » (is it really British English?) and, thanks to Madonna, I had no problem to « tell » a secret 🤣 my score was quite good 8/10
    Very interesting exercise for me, I liked the « form » (I mean to have a few seconds to get the good answer…) keep it up mate !
