Hola Garry
Sí, lo entiendo. La comprensión auditiva no es fácil, pero con práctica y continuando escuchando los podcasts, habrá mucho progreso. Es curioso que digas que para ti las dos voces suenan similares, porque Silvia y yo tenemos dos acentos bastante diferentes, uno del sur y otro del norte.
Gracias por tus comentarios.
Saludos
Inma

Me gustan mucho los pódcasts pero está muy difícil a determinar quién habla porque para mí, las dos voces suenan muy similar.
