Teachers:

Is "voluble" a difficult word for beginners? Not really! You will see pictures of voluble people in the exercises. Voluble people simply talk a lot. They're talkative.

The pictures do a very good job in conveying meaning throughout Real English®. In this lesson, they are particularly effective.
