Hi, can you explain who can manipulate us through media, social media, and YouTube, and how they do it?
C1 Natural Conversational version:
Hi! Could you explain who might be trying to manipulate us through the media, social platforms, and YouTube—and how they go about it?
🟢 Why it's better:
-
"Might be trying to" adds nuance—it sounds more natural and less absolute.
-
"Social platforms" is a smoother synonym for "social media."
-
"Go about it" is a natural phrase meaning “how they do it.”
Corrected B2 Version:

🔸 C1 Conversational Version:

📝 Notes:
-
"the correction" – you need “the” because you’re referring to something specific.
-
"I’d love to" sounds more natural and enthusiastic in conversation.
