Is there a speed control for the audio?

Is there a speed control for the audio?

An interesting read-along but the speed was a little difficult to keep up with as I tried to sort out new vocab. Is it posssible to slow it down as on Youtube with a .75 or Normal choice of speed? That'd really be helpful to read along at the slower speed first time through, then go back and sort out the new vocab with the pop-ups (I figured how to do that in MS Word, today, but Heaven knows how you do it on a web-site!) It's a pity that the audio has so much reverberation/echo popping in and out on stereo which makes it difficult as well. But, still the best listening/read-along exercises anywhere.

The use of otorgar seemed a little strange to me; would entregar or dar also be suitable in the context?

Hola Garry

The sugestion about speed control has been already passed on to the team to consider it.

Pisco sour is a typical Peruvian cocktail prepared with pisco, lime juice, sugar syryp and egg white (although I imagine the recipes may vary).

Otorgar is just slightly more formal than other verbs like dar or entregar, but it still clicks nicely on this text. 

Saludos
