States and conditions – B1–B2 – 003
This B1–B2 deck gathers human and social conditions in one set: disease names (pneumonia, malaria, polio, influenza, alcoholism, bulimia), tough social circumstances (ghetto, exclusion, tyranny, starvation, deforestation), and English idioms for being in trouble (in a pickle, in a stew, in a funk). With these 28 words you'll follow health news and articles about social issues, and say in English when someone is going through a hard time. A solid pick if you want to read news or documentaries beyond basic vocabulary.
