New Words

"Ogot, calm down. No one is going to London. Well, not yet."

- Joji

'New Words' is an episode of Ready, Set, Read!, aired in 2020.

Synopsis
Joji helps Ogot compose his letter to Fredric. Meanwhile, we need to help James Lez Read's G album.

Opening/Closing Segments
Joji is seen reading a brochure that gives information about the most beautiful places in the Philippines. Ogot arrives from the left of the screen after Joji sings 'London Bridge', thinking he is about to leave. Ogot tells him that he has a friend in London called Fredric, and has even finished a letter for him, but Joji noticed that he only wrote 'Fredric' outside the letter, which might confuse the mailman when he is asked to deliver it.

After successfully identifying all the items shown, we then see Joji and Ogot finish the letter. After they do, Ogot wants him to proofread his letters for multiple relatives and friends.

Intermission #1
After he gives us a game on different types of places in the neighborhood, he defines multiple words, as well as their Filipino counterparts, entitled 'What do You Mean?'

James Lez Read's lesson for today
We see James Lez Read in the park again, taking pictures about things that start with the letter G. Unfortunately, all the pictures from his G album turned out to be blurry, which means he has to start all over again with the words.
