Ivan is gutted when he finds out that one of the greatest ever Latino poets Jorge Luis Borges preferred English to Spanish, their shared mother tongue. Award-winning Afro-Brazilian Latinx writer and poet Guido Melo weighs in, trash-talking the English obsession with rhyme in poetry. In-house ESOL teacher Ai-Lin puts our sanity to the test by running through the crazy number of words that sound the same and are spelled the same but have different meanings. Hate, not love, is in the air.
