How to make long sentences in English Part 2

fact 1 billion people speak English that

means that one in every seven people on

earth have the ability to communicate in

English would you like to be one of them

well today I will teach you part two of

the second secret to speaking English

welcome to speak English with Tiffany I

am teacher Tiffany and today we are

going to learn part two of the second

secret to speaking English sentence

expansion this secret will improve your

ability to speak clearly and logically

in English are you ready

well then let’s jump right in in part 1

of this secret we learned that in order

to expand a sentence we must first find

the W’s that are already in the sentence

we looked at three different sentences

together the first one was I like ice

cream the second one I lived in Korea

and the third one was he is drinking

then we found the two WS that were

represented in each sentence after that

we added more information to the two WS

and this resulted in more detailed

sentences but what if you want to make

longer sentences sentences that are

truly detailed what’s next well this is

where step two begins while basic

English sentences answer at least one to

two of the five W’s an advanced English

sentence answers all of the five W’s so

if we look back once again at our three

example sentences we see that they each

were missing three of the five W’s the

first one

I like ice-cream answered the WHO and

the what but it did not answer the when

where or the why in the second sentence

I live in Korea it answered the WHO and

the where but it did not answer the win

what or the why and in our third example

he is drinking it answered the WHO and

the what but it did not answer the when

where or the why so let’s look at our

first example sentence and try to answer

all of the five W’s together first

sentence I like ice cream

so the who is I the when is after work

the where is baskin-robbins the what is

ice cream and the why is I love cold

deserts so now let’s see how our

sentence changed I like to eat ice cream

after work at Baskin Robbins

because I love cold deserts now this is

an advanced English sentence we went

from very simple to expanded and it

answers each of the five W’s now let’s

look at our second example sentence I

live in Korea so the who is I the when

is five years ago the where is Korea the

what is English teacher and the why is I

loved teaching now let’s see how our

sentence changed five years ago I lived

in Korea as an

English teacher because I loved teaching

this sentence also answers all of the

five W’s and is an advanced English

sentence now for our final example we

have he is drinking so the who is he the

when is lunch time the where is on the

sidewalk the what is drinking and the

why is stressed at work now once again

let’s combine all of this information

and let’s see how our sentence changed

it’s only lunchtime but he is drinking

on the sidewalk because he has stressed

at work and expanded sentence that

answers all of the five W’s all right

amazing today you learned part two of

the second secret to speaking English

sentence expansion we looked at three

example sentences and saw how to turn

English
