Why do I say “like” so much?

  • Summary

  • Much to the chagrin of English teachers everywhere, people use the word “like”…a lot. Listener Allison calls the hotline to ask why we talk the way that we do and if she can change her own speech. Host Jonquilyn Hill gets answers from sociolinguist Valerie Fridland and speech coach Rhonda Khan. Send us your questions! You can call us at 1-800-618-8545, email us at askvox@vox.com, or fill out this form.
