no-name from Cambodia mysterious okay we
are going to wait for other people to
join so while we join a recap from last
week and a couple questions we got last
week I would like to talk about so first
I want to as I do every week share how I
used last week’s grammar point the
present perfect tense in my own life so
you’ll see it here in just a second this
was my tweet from last week I was
talking about this tweet is actually
about our recent whiteboard series that
we’re doing where I kind of talk about a
specific grammar point in the lesson as
a lesson for a long time and so I used
the present perfect tense actually here
I said this is the only thing we’ve ever
done we have ever done the only thing
we’ve ever
done where it’s just me alone in a room
so I was talking about all of our video
experience as a whole as a general
experience and I used here the only
thing we’ve ever done in the present
perfect tense to talk about our video
experience so this is one way that I
used present perfect tense just in my
everyday life since last week so if you
haven’t seen that video by the way check
it out and you can check it out let’s
see I linked it here on Twitter I linked
it let’s see I linked it there it’s
linked on YouTube it’s linked on
Facebook so check it out wherever is
convenient for you
okay let’s see more people are joining
great Tiago from Brazil hi Alex on
YouTube hello Eric yeah hi lots of
people from Brazil as always good
evening on Facebook more people are
joining the Dene welcome is it your
first live first live stream cool Rosa
hi Carlos hi TK lo Marco hello and
Andrew from Taiwan on YouTube okay
I want to go to some questions we got
from last week though last week we had
some really good ones one we got a few
times was the difference between present
perfect and present progressive tense
someone name you know ask this the
difference between present perfect tense
and present progressive tense like for
example I have studied English for three
months and I have been studying English
for three months using the progressive
tense I have been studying has a much
stronger nuance of continuing it sounds
like you are continuing your studies
that action started in the past and is
continuing to the future it sounds like
you have maybe more focus on that that
item that you’re doing that action
you’re doing so if you want to emphasize
continuity you want to emphasize
something continues to occur use the
progressive tense in that case thanks
for that question also from someone
named Rafael really good question any
difference between do you ever and have
you ever yes so do you ever is an action
you do regularly in your everyday life
for example do you ever go hiking or do
you ever go scuba
means in your in your regular life as
part of your lifestyle do you do those
things
have you ever on the other hand is about
your past experience like have you ever
gone hiking means in your whole life in
your life experience have you had the
experience of hiking so do you ever
happens now in the future perhaps or in
your regular life have you ever is a
past tense question about your past
experience so thanks for that
do you ever versus have you ever nice
one
okay lots more people are joining there
are a lot of other questions and I don’t
think I have enough time to get to
today’s topic but I’ll introduce it one
more time because now a lot of people
are here I think which is great also if
you haven’t please make sure to like
this video hit the like button on
Facebook or on YouTube it’s really
helpful for us people can find the video
and if we if we get enough people liking
and watching the video then we can
continue to make livestream so please
please please hit the like button as
well
today’s topic though if you are just
joining is have to got to need to and
must and the negative form so today
we’re going to talk about how to explain
your responsibilities the things you
have to do okay then I think we’re about
six minutes in so I think I might start
today’s topic if that’s okay we have
lots more people great
nabil on Facebook you are not late you
are on time today you’ve only missed a
few minutes Gabriel on YouTube hi South
Paulo cool Andrew Seto from Guatemala
great Mariana from Indonesia cool ah
Thank You hey-zeus for liking the video
much appreciated thank you thank you
okay but I would like to start today’s
topic which is as I said have to got to
need to and must we use these to talk
about responsibility so I want to talk
about have to to begin with so first of
all to make have to and the negative
form don’t have to it’s a pretty simple
and you’ll see in just a second here
yeah so to make it we have a subject
like I or Frank well let’s use I for now
I plus have to or don’t have to plus a
verb so for example I have to pay my
mobile phone bill or I have to teach
English today for example there’s some
expectation please be careful when the
subject here is he or she we have to
change half due to has to so he has to
she has to and the negative form changes
also so he doesn’t have to she doesn’t
have to
so for example he he has to go to work
early tomorrow or she has to travel out
of town for work or you have to if they
have to finish your homework so we use
have to for our responsibilities we use
have to for tasks someone else expects
us to do there’s some expectation and if
there’s no expectation we might not do
that thing so I said I have to pay my
mobile phone bill if I don’t pay my
mobile phone bill I might not be able to
use my phone for example
yeah nice someone in YouTube wrote I
have to go to blah blah blah a place
nice so I want to point out though I
have white the whiteboard again today I
want to find out though a pronunciation
point about half too so sometimes
non-native speakers this is okay will
clearly say half - half - but native
speakers kind of contract this in speech
in fast speech it sounds like hafta I
have to go I have to do my homework I
have to study I have to teach I have to
work whatever so please keep this
grammar or pronunciation point in mind
for this for today hafta as a
pronunciation point so let’s use this
let’s use have to in the positive let’s
make a positive statement about your
weekend this weekend so please share a
responsibility about
weaken the question the first question
will be what do you have to do this
weekend what do you have to do this
weekend so this weekend I have to blah
blah blah this weekend I have to clean
my house this weekend I have to study
this weekend I have to take a test this
weekend I have to visit my family this
weekend I have to take my dog for a walk
this weekend I have to cook a lot of
food what do you have to do this weekend
nice youtube face one sorry face what
face button I looked at Facebook

yes Molly one I have to read a book cool
Eric I have to watch that video on
Facebook I have to pay the rent Carlos I
have to go to a party Lex I’m going to
talk about must later just a second
let’s see Ahmed yes I have to teach us I
have to teach you every week that is
true that is my responsibility
tsommo on YouTube I have to dance nice
ah Taylor I have to help my sister with
her homework nice ah
Mario I have to sleep 23 hours that’s a
long time I’m at the hurry I have to go
to the city tomorrow nice this weekend I
have to go to the beach I have to cut
carrots I have to pay my mobile phone I
have to take a midterm Wow
that’s going really fast JC trailers I
have to work this weekend I have to
volunteer in the pet shelter nice on
Facebook I have to meet my friends
garrison hi I have to run nice I have to
travel I have to do my studies great you
guys have great sentences and lots of
responsibilities you guys have busy
weekend’s coming up I think great very
nice
I have to go skateboarding I have to I
have to go to the beach mm okay I have
to dance I have to go to the bathroom
that is a very important sentence it’s
true it’s true great khali on high on
great lots of good sentences here Jack I
have to
on Twitter sure come find me that’s fine
I have to travel abroad I have to make a
pizza fantastic fantastic I have to move
my hair from my forehead yeah it’s hot
in this room sorry I move my hair a lot
it’s hot in here
okay great sentences nice work
but I also want to point out that we can
use have to in this way to talk about
responsibility but we can also use need
to so if you would like to say need to
to talk about your responsibilities you
can use it in the same way as have to so
I need to pay my mobile phone bill and
so on I need to go to work I need to
study and so on so have to and need to
we can use in the same way but one more
point I want to make there’s we’re not
going to change the example sentence you
might also hear have got to so today I’m
explaining from a perspective sort of
American English the way we use these in
American English have got to is another
one we use for our responsibilities I
have got to blah blah blah
I have got to pay my mobile phone bill
but you might hear this in the
contracted form I’ve got to so this have
got to or rather I have got to will
become I’ve got to we contract the half
into I’ve I’ve got to so have got to or
rather I have got to becomes contracted
to I’ve got to which becomes even
shorter and grammatically it’s not so
correct
I gotta if you hear this I got a go I
got a study I got a teaching English
livestream I gotta do something
I got a leave this gotta means I have
got to it’s a responsibility it’s a
necessity phrase so I gotta please use
this in speech only I don’t really
recommend using this in writing you can
use it in casual writing but in formal
situations generally not so good so
that’s one more point I want to talk
about today okay I think maybe I should
talk about your free stuff for this week
yes perhaps would that be good okay nice
yes okay so as always this week we have
some free stuff for you guys the crew
the crew prepared actually from all of

it too if you like it share it it’d be
great so that’s the free gifts for the

good stuff so check that out below the
video on youtube or above the video on
facebook okay let’s continue if uh your
response by the way a few of you said
this on youtube if you don’t have any
responsibilities so to go back to have
to and need to if you don’t have any
responsibilities the correct answer to
my question what’s something you have to
do this weekend use the negative I don’t
have to do anything I don’t have to do
anything so just one point there okay
but I want to practice using the
negative don’t have to now so the
negative don’t have to which we talked
about a little bit at the beginning of
this livestream is something that we use
be careful for spurt
it should be something a task or an
activity that it would be reasonable to
expect a person to do so for example I
don’t have to go to work tomorrow or he
doesn’t have to wake up early or she
doesn’t have to call me back these
things is reasonable to expect another
person to do these sorts of things so
please be careful when you use don’t
have to it should be for a reasonable
task please be careful so sometimes my
students say I don’t have to drink
alcohol at work but in most workplaces
usually it’s not so reasonable to expect
someone to drink alcohol at work if you
work in like a bar or in a place where
maybe that’s expected fine but in most
cases something like that and it doesn’t
really make sense so please use it for
reasonable expectations in your life in
your lifestyle but let’s try to make a
negative sentence with the question a
new question what is something you don’t
have to do this weekend what is
something you don’t have to do this
weekend do not you are not responsible
to do this so we’ll use this pattern I
don’t have to bla bla bla I don’t have
to get up early on Monday I don’t have
to get up early on Sunday I don’t know I
don’t have to go to work on Sunday I
don’t have to clean my house tomorrow I
don’t know so something that you don’t
have to do fantastic minutes I don’t
have to be president of my country
that’s a good one I like that I like
that good so what else what is something
you don’t have to do Romulo on YouTube
first one I don’t have to work tomorrow
nice Elizabeth de Carvalho says haven’t
or have no here we won’t use haven’t or
have no but I don’t have to don’t have
to it costs on on YouTube I do not have
to learn math nice Sergio on Facebook I
don’t have to work this weekend Rosa I
don’t have to get angry do you usually
have to get angry please be careful make
sure it’s a reasonable expectation you
don’t have to do it
have to do it alejandra on YouTube I
don’t have to work this weekend nice
Jennifer I don’t have to take care take
care of my sister I don’t have to care
for my sister mmm
Taylor I don’t have to walk to work good
it on Facebook I don’t have to cook
Latvia nice I don’t have to hesitate to
drink alcohol at my friend’s party this
weekend okay bond look maybe that’s not
depending on your lifestyle cool ah
Nabil says I don’t have to leave now
okay because I’m watching your lesson oh
that’s cool
I don’t have to go to school on Facebook
I don’t have to work today nice I don’t
have to get up late this weekend
Eric maybe okay if you usually get up
late that sentence is okay be at Ria’s I
don’t have to work on Sunday good Charan
I don’t have to practice another person
I don’t have to worry about money this
weekend oh that’s nice
I don’t have to wake up early I don’t
have to prepare breakfast early good I
don’t have to go to eat at lunchtime I
don’t have to go to school good Sean
says I don’t have to speak English well
maybe but it’s good to practice it’s
good to practice I don’t have to go to
the gym on Facebook nice great okay so
we have lots of negative sentences
remember these are things we use for
reasonable expectations so keep that in
mind okay
but our other primary topic for today
we’ve talked about have to and need to
and a little bit of this have got to
which we use in the same way but the
other grammar point I want to talk about
today is must so a lot of my students
have trouble using must so we use must
in the same pattern as we use have to so
here you’ll see we have a subject plus
must positive or must not negative plus
a verb so like someone must or must not
do something is the is the pattern here
same as have to and don’t have to
however when should we use must what’s
the difference between 1/2 2 and must
essentially in American English we use
must for official rules for example like
your within your country within yours
society formal rules or laws or at the
airport for example rules at the airport
rules at your workplace at your office
may be rules with the police for example
so statements with must sound very
formal must and must not sounds very
very formal they sound like formal rules
depending on where you are so we can we
use must for things we’re responsible
for yes but they’re used for formal
explanations okay and we use things we
use must to talk about things that are
against the rules or we should not do
formal situations things we should not
do we are responsible not to do these
things we use must not in those cases
one point about using must and must not
however in these sorts of sentences the
subject of the sentence might not be a
personal pronoun so we practice using
like he/she they for example we might
not use those personal pronouns as the
subjects of sentences with must end must
not so at the airport for example we’ll
use like passengers as the subject
passengers must show their passport at
immigration or at work staff must wear a
nametag at all times or at a office
employees must not smoke in the office
so keep in mind that the subject of the
sentence is a bit different okay but I
want to try using must with you guys
today so please think about where you
work or where you study so some of you
are students some of you work I know
that from last week actually you told me
last week so what is a rule at your
place of work or study at your place of
work or study so at your school or at
your office or whatever what is a rule
so if you’re a student students must or
students must not something or if you
work employees at your workplace
employees must blah blah blah or
employees must not do something so for
example
maybe employees must not wear jeans to
work or employees must start work at
9:00 a.m. or students must not drink
alcohol on campus for example okay let’s
make a few rules about your place of
work or study Ethan is first on YouTube
drivers must not drink and drive
perfect very nice that’s a societal rule
very very nice
excellent Mohammed on YouTube passengers
must be pat down at the airport okay
passengers must be pat down good
remember these are rules societal rules
official rules workplace rules that’s
what we’re practicing now so please be
careful not not have to not your
personal responsibility is necessarily
but formal rules like at work
Jennifer students must be on time for
class good Esmeralda and Facebook
students must not bully others great lo
M students must wear white shirts and
black skirts in my school perfect
Ruben’s you must wash your hands after
you finish using the bathroom

Kenta employees must not talk back to
their boss ooh nice one good one talk

conversation with someone great Jennifer

good one on Facebook SEC guy students
must not cheat in an examination hi SEC
I welcome back um what else
Iftekhar on Facebook students must have
good manners nice Susan we must use a
uniform at work every day nice Dave the
taxi drivers taxi drivers we usually use
the subject as a group a group of people
taxi drivers must be polite good
matahari students must not be absent
from class good Rob employees must not
speak Spanish
if you work in an English call center
nice one great so these are perfect
really really nice job these are formal
rules or workplace rules we use must and
we can use must not to talk about these
as well very nice really nice okay so oh
there’s still a few more coming in
students must be able to learn with all
students Exxon on YouTube just one small
fix with all students also on YouTube I
must get a visa if I want to go out of
my country good Dave

have guns at school great what else
rosemary college students must study a
lot that’s close that’s close maybe nice
fun ROG area on YouTube employees must
not eat during work great so we have
some must not sentences here to Mahad on
Facebook you mustn’t smoke in public
places ah great point here I think yeah
I think that’s ok must not so we’re
talking about using must not some of you
are making great sentences with must not
but someone on Facebook just made a
great point I want to mention using the
contracted form oops sorry
using the contracted form there is a
contracted form of must not I should say
though that American American English
speakers don’t really use this very much
this mustn’t mustn’t it sounds like
mustn’t you mustn’t do that
you mustn’t do this you mustn’t do that
there is a contracted form of this must
not becomes mustn’t here but American
English speakers don’t use this one very
much but it does exist there is a
contracted form of mustn’t there of must
not it becomes mustn’t great thanks for
that point ok well lots of
good ones workers must not sleep on the
job we said on the job to do something
during working hours just to do
something on the job on the job good may
employees must not wear short skirts at
work perfect uh what else now hang on
Facebook students must plan their goals
niced one matahari on YouTube children
must respect their parents good okay so
I think that people get the idea
everybody’s making really nice sentences
with must and with must not so I want to
maybe finish because we’re running out
of time huh we’re running out of time
but I want to finish with maybe one last
point about must and must not we can use
must and must not when giving advice but
it’s usually for a very strong situation
a very serious situation so for example
a doctor might recommend a patient like
you must stop smoking or you’re going to
die or maybe you must make a lifestyle
change if you want to improve your
health for example so it’s in a very
very serious situation that we use must
or must not to give advice also we can
use half tube to give advice like you if
you go to a different city you have to
do wallah you have to do something we
can use must and have to to give advice
as well as to talk about our
responsibilities but have to is a little
bit more casual it sounds a little more
friendly please think of must as
something you should use in formal
situations Andre on YouTube says people
must watch your videos that’s very nice
but yeah you don’t have to but if you do
it’s great yeah okay so we only have a
couple of minutes left unfortunately you
guys have some really great example
sentences with half two and must but I
need to wrap up I need to finish because
I have run out of time so I want to
mention next week’s topic next week
we’re going to talk about how to talk
about your schedule so we’re going to
use actually this grammar
point we’re gonna use this half to or
maybe must depending on your situation
we’re gonna talk about how to explain
your schedule so we’ll use this grammar
point and some grammar points from our
