This ESL podcast episode focuses on clarifying terms in a business meeting, specifically negotiating a contract. The hosts, Dr. Jeff McQuillan and Dr. Lucy Say, present a dialogue between two people, Bill and Ms. Samuels, discussing the terms of a contract, including its length, options, and cancellation clauses. The episode explains key vocabulary related to contracts and negotiations, such as "negotiate," "contract," "terms," "option," "clause," and "cancellation," and provides phrases for asking for clarification, like "If I understand the terms correctly," "Do you mean," "I was under the impression," "Let me see if I can clarify that," and "Could you elaborate on that?" The dialogue is then replayed at a native speaking rate.
