comes from Winston hi Winston Winston
says I don't understand English I want
to learn but I don't know how to start
I'm a newbie write lots of questions
like this so really there are a lot of
different ways that you can start
studying a language of course we have
lots of videos on our YouTube channel
and we have a whole website to try to
help people who are studying English you
can check us out at English class
101.com you can find like apps you can
find worksheets podcasts to listen to so
that can be a nice way to start we have
some videos for beginners also so if
you're just starting you can check some
of the beginner level videos we have on
the channel for example English in three
minutes that's a good set of videos you
can watch to learn some basic phrases I
think so that might be a nice place for
you to start but let's look at some
other ideas for beginners specifically
one join an English class in your city
to get an English textbook and study at
home three make a language exchange with
an English speaker for study vocabulary
with apps try out those those are a few
ideas of course you can always use our
videos on the channel as well so I hope
that helps a little bit where do we use
wanna and gonna and how ahh this
question is about the casual contracted
forms of want to and going to so what to
becomes wanna going to becomes gonna in
casual speech we use them in exactly the
same way we would use I want to I'm
going to he wants to she wants to he's
going to she's going to we use them in
exactly the same way which means we use
them in casual
like I wanted to take a day off or I'm
gonna go to the beach this weekend or do
you want to see a movie tonight we use
them in exactly the same way we use want
to and going to but we use them in
speech typically we don't write these
unless we're writing very casual
messages like text messages to our
friends or something next one I got the
next question a couple times like maybe
three or four times okay the question
was about the adjectives comparison
video that we did a while ago so I
introduced the word fun as an irregular
adjectives in terms of the comparative
form so fun is a word an adjective we
use for an activity or something that's
enjoyable something we like to do fun is
different from the adjective funny fun
is an adjective and a noun
actually funny is just an adjective fun
refers to an enjoyable activity funny
however refers to something that causes
us to laugh it makes us laugh because
something is humorous something as
humorous
so for example we can say going to an
amusement park is fun if not funny it's
not humorous but it's fun let's kind of
break this down a little bit let's think
about it like fun in the adjective form
here fun is an enjoyable activity
something we enjoy doing funny
however causes laughter because of humor
something funny is humorous it is like
witty or there's interesting wordplay or
whatever so fun is kind of think of fun
as like doing an activity going to the
movie theater is fun going to an
amusement park is fun watching this
video maybe is fun I don't know making
these videos is fun but funny we use
funny for for example a person or a
movie or something that causes us to
laugh because of humor so things that
are fun fun fun fun fun not fun funny
funny not funny not funny fun
not funny fun so going to watch a funny
movie is fun think about that because
these two words are different fun is an
adjective funny is an adjective
fun the comparative form is more fun or
less fun the comparative form of fun II
is funnier or not as funny so that's why
I used two different examples in that
video thanks for that question though
next question the next question comes
from Carmel Carmel says do you have any
ideas on how to improve speaking skills
in English
yea well to improve your speaking you
have to practice speaking here are a
couple of ideas that you can use to
maybe help you improve your speaking
these are ideas for just ways to
practice so chances to practice number
one get a partner you can practice
speaking English with this can be in
your city or in your community so find a
partner to practice speaking English
with this can be a language exchange
partner for example do if you can't find
anyone in your town or in your city to
practice speaking English with you can
try to find a partner on line 3 try
recording yourself speaking you can use
your phone to do this if you like just
record your voice saying something and
then listen to it again you might not
realize it but it's actually really
helpful to hear your own voice like
outside of your body actually we have
something on the website you can check
at English class 101.com
there's a voice recorder function so you
can record your voice and then compare
your voice to the sound of a native
speakers voice and try to practice until
your voice matches the sound of their
voice so that could be another idea
number four try repeating the things the
characters in English TV and English
movies say so if you're watching TV if
you're watching a video online if you're
listening to music something in English
try to repeat the thing you hear so not
only listening listening listening but
try to practice saying the things the
characters or the artists are saying to
number five kind of a strange suggestion
maybe but try talking to yourself in
English actually I do this a lot I'm
studying Japanese and I talk to myself
in Japanese from time to time so that
helps me a little bit but helps me get
comfortable just saying words same
phrases to so maybe that's helpful for
you those are five ideas or what you can
do to improve your speaking next
question next question comes from Huang
Sena Wong Wong say not one sign up I'm
very sorry I'm very sorry I've never
been to Japan I've never been to Japan
before I've never eaten horse I've never
eaten horse before my question is if you
put before at the end of those sentences
does it mean you are in Japan right now
or you are eating horse right now no not
necessarily think of before at the end
of the sentence as before now I've never
eaten horse before now in other words
you could use this beef just before you
eat horse or just before you go to Japan
if you like as an emphasis phrase but it
doesn't necessarily mean that you are in
Japan now or that you're eating horse
now you could use it in that way sure
but it doesn't necessarily mean it if
you'd like to emphasize it like if
you're about to eat horse for example
use I've never eaten horse before you
could show your interest or perhaps to
show maybe some anxiety or nervous
feelings about what you're about to do
but no it does not necessarily mean you
are in that place like for example you
could just be having a conversation
have you eaten horse before no I've
never eaten horse before it could just
be a conversation about it but really
before it just means before now next
question next question comes from Juan
Garcia Highlawn no one asks I would like
to know how to use down up off in on and
out after a verb and why it's necessary
oh dear one this is a very big question
your question is about phrasal verbs
these are all called phrasal verbs
verb plus adverb or preposition there
are an enormous amount of phrasal verbs
I cannot possibly talk about all of them
in one video phrasal verbs are necessary
because they are part of speech they are
simply a type of verb they are a type of
expression so you need to know them
because they will help you to
communicate effectively so if you want
to know more about specific phrasal
verbs
I would suggest checking a dictionary
next question next question comes from
Long John Young Johnny it sorry which
one is correct
I work out for one to two hours a day I
work out for one or two hours a day I
drink coffee two to three times a day I
drink coffee two or three times a day
ah both of these are correct actually in
this case there are very very small
differences between these 1 to 2 hours a
day means between one and two hours if
you say I've worked out for 1 or 2 hours
a day
it means it's determined like 1 hour
only for a workout or 2 hours only for a
workout so the difference here is are
you determining are you deciding 1 hour
or 2 cups of coffee or 3 cups of coffee
or is it between those two amounts so
using 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 means between
those two amounts using or shows it's
either A or B but not between those two
this is the difference between 2 and or
next question next question comes from
Bowie dent a bow a bow a den de votante
asks when can I use ever in a present
perfect sentence like I have ever ever
means at any time or at all times you
can use ever when you're asking a
question like have you ever blah blah
blah have you ever been to France have
you ever eaten ramen have you ever taken
a trip to the mountains for example we
can use ever when making questions
that's one but because ever means at all
time or it
many times we may not use it to answer a
question like that have you ever blah
blah blah we usually say yes or no in
that in response to that we can say I
have never ever taken a trip to France
or I have never ever forgotten my keys
for example I have never ever blah blah
blah but in that case it still means
never an expression like never ever just
emphasizes the word never so to use ever
we need to pair ever with a verb in a
sentence so we can't say I have ever
just I have plus a verb we cannot say I
have ever that's incorrect
I have at some at anytime or at all
times
it's it's redundant it's it's not
necessary we can however use ever in a
negative expression like I haven't ever
been to France or she hasn't ever eaten
cheese for example so we have to pare
ever with a negative to make a response
we use ever for present perfect tense
questions and paired with a negative
have or has to make a response to make a
negative response so please keep those
two in my next question next question it
comes from rush kit
rush rush rush I'm sorry where do we use
wanna and gonna and how ahh this
question is about the casual contracted
forms of want to and going to so what to
becomes wanna going to becomes gonna in
casual speech we use them in exactly the
same way we would use I want to I'm
going to he wants to she wants to he's
going to she's going to we use them in
exactly the same way which means we use
them in casual situations like I want to
take a day off or I'm gonna go to the
beach this weekend or do you want to see
a movie tonight we use them in exactly
the same way we use want to and going to
but we use them in speech typically we
don't write these unless we're writing
very casual messages like text messages
to our friends or something first
question a lot of you who asked about
what to do to get a
that sounds like mine when I'm making
these videos I'm specifically trying to
speak clearly so I'm clearly separating
my words the way that I talk with my
friends and the way that I talk
regularly is a bit different than the
way that I talk on this channel but if
you want to try to get this kind of
pronunciation the best advice I have is
just to repeat this kind of
pronunciation it depends on your goal if
you want to learn to speak like me or to
speak like somebody else that you really
admire you should try to mimic them
that's what I do and that's actually a
strategy that I use when I study other
languages as well so if I hear something
interesting that a vocabulary word that
a friend has used like in Japanese for
example or they have a really good
intonation or just the way they deliver
the way they say something is really
interesting to me or I want to I want to
be able to use that too I put that in my
head I think about that and then I try
to replicate that I tried to copy that
essentially to make this explanation
shorter mimic mimic if you want to learn
to speak like me mimic me if you want to
learn to speak like somebody else try to
mimic someone else but just keep in mind
that the way that I talk in these videos
is different from the way that I talk in
real life next question next question is
from sue ha how do we write a good
paragraph number one you need to think
about the position of your paragraph in
your overall document let's think about
writing a document in terms of three
parts an introduction a body and a
conclusion in the introduction section
you need to introduce the key
information your reader needs to know
what they're going to read about later
in your documents so if your paragraph
is in the introduction you need to think
about how to introduce your information
there
second the body section of your document
should be where you include your
evidence your supporting materials your
opinions any references that you have so
if your paragraph falls in the body of
the document you should have these
things in mind if your paragraph is in
the conclusion of your document at the
end you should be concluding or
finishing your ideas it's typically a
good idea to summarize the ideas you
presented in the body and the
introduction of your document in the
including session to use transitions
when you're writing it's good to
transition from one sentence to another
and to use good transitions between
paragraphs themselves so some example
transitions could be 1st 2nd 3rd or next
then finally after that
moreover additionally furthermore so
transitions help the reader connect the
ideas that you're presenting in your
writing 3 avoid trying to include too
much information in one sentence
remember you need to try to present your
ideas as clearly and accurately as
possible so if you find you're just
writing and writing and writing and the
sentence is becoming extremely long take
a moment and look at the goal of the
sentence what are you actually trying to
communicate if you need to break it into
smaller sentences and connect them with
transitions next question next question
comes from garrison Silva again garrison
when can I use the expression take for
granted take for granted this is an
expression which we typically use in the
negative like don't take something
something for granted don't take a block
for granted it means don't forget to
appreciate this thing or this person so
for example don't take your parents for
granted or don't take this opportunity
for granted these expressions mean don't
forget to appreciate these things or
don't just disregard your parents or
don't read disregard this opportunity to
recognize the importance of something so
if you are given a good opportunity for
example or someone gives you good advice
or a very nice gift perhaps we would
typically use this with the negative
don't take something something for
granted
you don't forget to show your
appreciation for that thing or for that
person question comes from Carla hi
Carla Carla asks how do you native
speakers use to have I have seen I've I
have got formal and informal sure we use
the verb to have for a lot of different
meaning there's a grammatical function
for the verb have when we pair it with
the past participle form of a verb like
I have plus past participle to make the
present perfect tense or I had
plus past participle to make the past
perfect tense so there's that kind of
grammatical function of the verb have
however if you just want to use the verb
have in everyday situations like I have
a phone or I have a camera or I don't
have any money for example then to have
in that case just means to own something
or to hold something to be keeping
something so please consider the
sentence that you're looking at with the
verb have in it if it comes before a
verb in the past participle it's
probably a past perfect or a present
perfect expression if you're seeing
something after the verb have like an
object in my examples like a phone or a
camera or money then it's probably
referring to owning something or keeping
something so those are probably two of
the most common ways that you'll see the
verb have and its variations in at least
American English speech next question
next question next question comes from
Daniel silver oh hi Daniel
Daniel asks what is the difference
between wish and desire greetings from
Paraguay hey what is the difference
between wish and desire wish is used to
express a a once when you want something
that is different from the present
situation so we often use it with I wish
I were or I wish I could something we we
want or an ability we want but that we
do not have now something for the future
so I wish I could speak seven languages
or I wish I had a million dollars or I
wish I were taking more time off every
week for example something that is
different from the present condition the
present situation we use wish or I wish
it would call me for example I wish you
would or I wish you could to express
something that is not happening now
desire on the other hand desire tends to
be used more formally and it also can
carry more romantic nuances it's not
used as much conversationally as the
word wish
which is used to express once things
that we want that are not true now
desire is used more in romantic
situations like to desire another person
or he desired more of her time for
example but it sounds unnecessarily
formal I feel you might use it in a in a
more formal like a business context like
our client desires more information
about the situation that could be a
different use of the word desire but in
general it sounds a bit more formal and
a bit more romantically charged at times
depending on the situation when it's
used if you're talking about a person as
well like if you say for example I
desire you it sounds a actually quite
odd at least in American English if you
want to use the word desire I think in
romantic situation it might be applied
in a phrase like he was filled with
desire or she was filled with desire
used more as a noun than as a verb so I
would recommend not using desire so much
to talk about your wants as it can sound
a little bit too formal or can give
perhaps the wrong nuance to the
situation but wish is used to express a
a hope for something or wanting
something that is different from the
present situation so I hope that helps
first question comes from Ferris Ghazali
Ferris ghazali
how do I stop translating the meaning of
English words in my head I can tell you
about the things that have helped me and
maybe they'll help you I put myself in
situations where I could not escape into
my native language in my case I could
not escape into English I would go out
like for food and drinks with friends
who could not speak English I had no
choice but to use a different language
with them to something that I've noticed
some of my students do that actually
kind of bothers me they bring a
dictionary to their lesson and they'll
stop conversations in lessons to check
words in their dictionary and say a
single word at a time instead of just
trying to find a different way to
explain that one it totally stops the
flow of conversation to you
how really the option to do that in a
conversation most of the time you're not
going to be carrying around your
dictionary with you I hope unless it's
in your phone I suppose third I think
that this is a chance to develop a
better skill instead of trying to
translate into English or to translate
into a different language you should
think about finding a different way to
explain the word you want to use let's
say for example that you want to use the
word beautiful but you can't remember
the word how would you explain that so
think about other ways to communicate an
idea even if you don't have the
vocabulary words so going to your
dictionary shouldn't necessarily be the
first course of action it shouldn't
necessarily be your first step think
about a different way to communicate the
idea you're trying to communicate think
of examples to explain the word you're
looking for and then the other person
can teach you like if you're working
with somebody or you're talking with
somebody who understands you're not a
native speaker chances are if you can
explain the word you're looking for they
will tell you they will be your teacher
I just explained like with body language
sometimes too if I don't know work so
another thing that really helped me was
not just studying vocabulary words but
actually approaching things as phrases
so not saying okay this word equals this
word in my language but rather here's a
phrase that communicates a meaning that
it's interesting to me or that I hear my
friends use a lot I'm going to use that
phrase so don't just input input input
start outputting too so hope that's
helpful for you next question next
question from Han Yong he han-pan Yong
Yong Yong a very sorry hey Alisha what's
the difference between maybe probably
perhaps and possibly great question
maybe probably perhaps possibly okay
maybe probably perhaps and possibly
these are all adverbs they have the same
grammatical function maybe probably
perhaps and possibly maybe and perhaps
are very closely related maybe and
perhaps are they have the same meaning
but just different levels of formality
maybe is like the lower level the more
casual version of the word perhaps so
maybe I'll go to the beach this weekend
perhaps I'll go to the beach this
weekend they have really the same
meaning but perhaps sounds more formal
probably however is different probably
expresses a higher level of possibility
than the other words on this list I'll
probably go to the beach this weekend is
like a 75 to 80% chance the speaker is
going to go to the beach this weekend
possibly however possibly has more of a
nuance of just that something can be
done it is possible to do something we
use possibly more in requests like could
you possibly blah blah blah for me could
you possibly send me this file possibly
sounds a little too formal for casual
conversations and invitations but if
you're using it at work for example
could you possibly meet me later this
week instead of could you maybe meet me
so the difference between maybe and
possibly and perhaps they're possible
has that route yeah possible able to so
maybe and perhaps don't have that nuance
possibly sounds like is it possible is
it are you able to do this thing maybe
and perhaps don't contain that nuance
so to recap maybe and perhaps are used
to express the same thing a chance of
something happening perhaps is more
formal possibly is used in a similar way
however it refers more to simple
possibility than is it is are you able
to do that thing probably expresses a
high chance of something next question
next question is from Wong Jiang hi long
dong it says I'm curious what do you do
in your days off you gotta know how to
do my days off from my days I'm pretty
normal on my days off I cook I go
jogging I sleep i I build this into my
favorite DJ's I see my friends I eat and
drink and watch TV I'm a pretty normal
person first question this comes from
Shunichi Saito - Ichi Shinichi says I
want to know what does tho mean for
example it's very expensive though I see
the word though at the end of a sentence
very
yeah a lot of you have sent this
question in recently so I talked in a
previous episode of ask Alicia about
using the word though th Oh ugh at the
end of a sentence it means but at the
end of a sentence and we use it kind of
casually so when you see the word though
th oh it's like an even more casual
version of the oth oh ugh at the end of
a sentence so you'll see this a lot on
like social media you'll see this when
you're on like Facebook or Twitter or
Instagram text messages maybe though
just means but but at the end of a
sentence so in your example sentence
which was it's really expensive though
it means it's really expensive but
however it's like just putting that
little but that little disagreement kind
of feeling at the end of the sentence so
it's sort of like a soft you know
disagreement or a soft sort of
difference of opinion though means
though th ou means though th oh ugh but
it's just extremely extremely casual so
for a little bit more detail you can
check this video where I talked a little
bit more about th Oh ugh at the end of a
sentence with some other examples so I
hope that that helps you I know many of
you have asked that question lately next
question the next person asked two
questions so the next two questions are
from SL juarez Ciotti where where sia D
I they're sorry question one from essa
can you explain through thorough though
and thought they sound similar yes
indeed they do sound similar and they
even look similar in writing for sure
however these words have different
meanings and different functions in
speech and in writing let's look at
through to begin with though through
means to pass into something and to come
out the other side of something so for
example to go through a tunnel or if
you're looking at a document for example
to go through a document means to read
through read all of the content of the
document from beginning to
and so through something is to begin at
something and pass through all of the
content to pass through everything and
come come out the other side or to
complete something so we also use the
word through to mean finished in
American English like are you through
with dinner or I'm through with my
homework so through those are a couple
of different ways we use the word
through the second word thorough
thorough so different from through
thorough means comprehensive thorough
means completely thorough means well
done it has typically a positive meaning
so for example she was very thorough in
her explanation of the word through or
she was very thorough in her explanation
of the word thorough sorry she was very
thorough in her presentation meaning she
gave a lot of information in her
presentation thorough means well done
containing a lot of knowledge a lot of
information in something thorough so
please be thorough in completing your
homework or he wasn't very thorough in
cleaning his room so thorough means well
done completely done finished so
considering everything considering all
points of something even the small
details is considered thorough so we can
use thorough for presentations for
activities that require small details a
thorough safety check for example so
these are actions that are done
completely fully to the small details so
that's thorough next we're here is
though though though you can think of
though in the same way you think of the
word but so it's used to contrast
information it's used to express a
difference in something so you could
follow someone's opinion with an
expression like tho so for example I
think summer is the best season though
winter is pretty fun too so you can
think of though in the same way as you
think of but a though be so you're
presenting a and then a contrasting
opinion B and you're connecting those
two ideas with though in the same way
you would but so though though although
is similar we use although and though
and but in similar ways what's the
difference but is much more casual and
but is use much more in casual
conversation and everyday conversation
if you're writing a document
a formal document or if you're making a
formal statement you could use though in
place of but so though shows contrasting
information the last one on this list is
thought thought thought is the past
tense of think when used as a verb so I
thought you were coming today or I
thought it was going to rain later or I
thought this was such a great afternoon
thought is used as the past tense of
think we can also use thought to refer
to an idea as a noun so I have a thought
for example or do you have any thoughts
about this project so we can use thought
as a verb past tense of think or as a
noun to refer to an idea so again that's
through thorough though and thought some
of you might be wondering how do I
remember which is which when I'm reading
or when I'm listening you have to pay
attention to the grammar of the sentence
they all have different grammatical
functions so you need to think about the
grammar surrounding the word next
question next question from Han Yong hee
hanpan Jonnie Jonnie sorry hey Alicia
what's the difference between maybe
probably perhaps and possibly great
question maybe probably perhaps possibly
okay maybe probably perhaps and possibly
these are all adverbs they have the same
grammatical function maybe probably
perhaps and possibly maybe and perhaps
are very closely related maybe and
perhaps are they have the same meaning
but just different levels of formality
maybe is like the lower level the more
casual version of the word perhaps so
maybe I'll go to the beach this weekend
and perhaps I'll go to the beach this
weekend
they have really the same meaning but
perhaps sounds more formal probably
however is different
probably expresses a higher level of
possibility than the other words on this
list I'll probably go to the beach this
weekend it's like a 75 to 80 percent
chance the speaker is going to go to the
beach this weekend possibly however
possibly has more of a nuance of just
that something can be done it is
possible to do something we use possibly
more in requests like could you possibly
blah blah blah for
could you possibly send me this file
possibly sounds a little too formal for
casual conversations and invitations but
if you're using it at work for example
could you possibly meet me later this
week instead of could you maybe meet me
so the difference between maybe and
possibly and perhaps they're possible
has that route
yeah possible able to so maybe and
perhaps don't have that nuance possibly
sounds like is it possible is it are you
able to do this thing maybe and perhaps
don't contain that nuance
so to recap maybe and perhaps are used
to express the same thing a chance of
something happening perhaps is more
formal possibly is used in a similar way
however it refers more to simple
possibility than is it is are you able
to do that thing probably expresses a
high chance of something next question
next question is from Muhammad's Ohio
what is the difference between famous
and popular great question
famous is something that is well known
many people know about that thing or
that person Beyonce is famous the Statue
of Liberty is famous the Eiffel Tower is
famous popular however means many people
know about it and it is liked it has a
positive image so like Beyonce is
popular or like a famous candy is
popular like chocolate cake is popular
it's a famous food and many people like
it so popular is famous Plus like a
positive image sometimes we can use
those two words for the same thing so
Beyonce is famous beyonce is popular but
famous doesn't always mean they are
popular so someone can be famous for a
bad thing
in that case though it's typically
better to use the word infamous infamous
infamous means famous for a bad reason
so famous for something negative on to
question do from SF what does love to
hate mean and when can I use it love to
hate means it's something that you
really really dislike but it's sort of
enjoyable to dislike so for example this
is an expression we can apply to
reality-tv so many people think reality
TV is not very good entertainment or
it's not very high-quality entertainment
however it's really really fun to watch
so maybe for example you just hate a
character on a reality TV show but
somehow you enjoy watching that TV show
- so something that you feel very strong
dislike for and yet you really enjoy it
at the same time that's something you
can love to hate you love to hate that
thing next question next question comes
from oh you wrote the pronunciation of
your name very nice item i todd i think
okay okay Alicia
well my level is intermediate they feel
that they're stuck at the intermediate
level and want to reach the advanced
level they're watching lots of videos on
YouTube reading academic articles on the
web but still feel that progress has
somehow stopped could you give me some
advice okay you say in your message that
you feel your progress somehow has
stopped I have been here to the
intermediate plateau like you begin
learning a language and it's like yeah
I'm learning all these things and then
you kind of like plateau you get to a
level where things don't continue and
you feel like progress goes much more
slowly I would say in this case first
identify how you feel your progress has
stopped by that I mean like do you feel
like your vocabulary is lacking or do
you find that it's hard to listen to
people and to understand what they're
saying do you find it's hard to write is
it hard to to like to read things so
first identify what is that thing that
you feel like you're not good and then
start to approach your further studies
with that as the focus I think that if
you can think about your different skill
sets your different levels in reading
writing speaking and listening you can
identify which of those four things is
weakest for you and start there so when
you feel your progress has stopped think
like okay what am I not good at doing
and then focus your time there so maybe
that's a helpful first step for you hope
that helped this week's first question
is a question from Baja by heart they
are I'm very sorry hi Alicia I'd like to
learn about
as and like what's the difference
between them to begin with like is a
preposition remember prepositions are
words we use to show relationships to
other words or to position the elements
in a sentence so for example act and by
and on are also prepositions the word
light is a preposition however the word
as is a conjunction a conjunction is a
word that connects elements in a
sentence so for example and but or for
so these words are conjunctions that's
point one we use like and as to make
comparisons the general agreement on how
to use like and as at this point in time
is that if you are following the word
like with a simple statement like a noun
phrase you should use the word like if
however the part that comes after the
word like whereas has a verb in the
clause there's a verb in that part of
this sentence you should use as to do
that because as functions as a
conjunction remember its connecting the
elements in a sentence so we should use
like if there's just a simple phrase or
it's like a simple noun phrase something
like that after like or as so to give
some examples my coworker eats like a
pig
in that case I've used the word like
because after like comes a pig it's just
a simple noun phrase if however I said
my coworker eats as if he were a pig I'm
using a verb I'm using the verb were as
if he were so we can use ads in cases
wherever we follow the statement with a
verb we can use like in cases where we
follow that statement with a simple noun
phrase generally we use them both to
make comparisons I'll say though that
native speakers often make mistakes with
this generally speaking now especially
in spoken conversation in casual spoken
conversation at least American English
speakers tend to use like more often
than as in everyday conversation I tend
to use like I rely on like heavily for
my comparisons and
situations it's like you were it's like
he was it's like blah blah blah as I
feel is more common at least among
American English speakers in writing so
you might see as if and as though both
of those we can use to make comparisons
like comes before a simple noun phrase
as is used before something containing a
ver yeah thanks for that question bar
next question next question comes from
Chiara GRA GRA GRA GRA uh I'll help you
studying and I'll help you to study what
is the correct one thanks I'll help you
something I'll help you do this so just
the regular plain form of the verb I
would suggest is probably the most
natural choice thanks for the question
though next question next question comes
from sheriff sheriff Emmitt sheriff army
okay should I use the singular or plural
verb after colloquial names for example
my team have won the match or has won
the match okay in this case my team has
won the match my team has won the match
so use the singular form of the verb
like same as like he has or she has my
team has is the correct answer here next
question the next question is from
taylor taylor asks which one sounds
better i read a newspaper every morning
or i read the newspaper every morning
nice question this is a question about
articles this is just about being
specific if for example there's a
specific newspaper that you want to read
like I read the ABC newspaper every
morning you should use that if it's not
important to you to be specific about a
newspaper and if you want to imply that
you just read any newspaper every
morning you can use a newspaper I read a
newspaper every morning using the
instead though shows that there is maybe
a specific newspaper using the before
newspaper in this case though sounds
like there's a specific newspaper you
read every morning if you say I read a
newspaper every morning it sounds like
you just choose any newspaper that's
available to you on that day and you
read that newspaper so using the shows
that there's a specific or it implies
that there's a
newspaper you'll read every day you
don't have to be specific about which
one you can like I read the New York
Times every day or I read that Guardian
every day for example but if you say I
read a newspaper every day it sounds
like you don't choose the same newspaper
each day that's the difference between
these two phrases most people however do
choose the same newspaper every day
and so they use I read the newspaper
every day you can say I read the news
every day as well but using that set
phrase the news it's like the news for
the day I read that day's news every day
where I read the previous day's news
every day so usually we say the news we
don't use on news it sounds a little
strange to use on news so the same sort
of thing applies to a newspaper most
people choose the same newspaper every
day so we say the newspaper instead of
newspaper but thanks for that question
Taylor thanks next question next
question comes from Jeffrey hi Jeffrey
Jeffrey asks sometimes I watch movies
and some characters say you wish with a
very angry attitude or I wish in other
situations what do these two sentences
mean and how do I use it
a-ha interesting question okay when
someone responds with you wish to a
negative suggestion it's like they're
mutually together they're recognizing
that they don't like each other so
usually the first character will say
something like make a negative
suggestion like you should you should
leave town and get a different job leave
us alone something like that and then
the other character will say yeah you
wish like yes this this character
recognizes you want me to do that yes
but I'm not going to do that in other
words so it's sort of like a challenge
so this person says like this negative
suggestion the other person recognizes
the suggestion says no I'm not going to
do that but I know you want me to do
that so you wish and this way means it's
like a negative challenge look they're
kind of fighting recognizing they
dislike each other so that's one the
other one what was the other one
so I wish we talked about I wish in the
previous the previous episode of
delecia so please check that out but
essentially I wish refers to something
that we cannot do now or something that
is different from the present situation
but we want we want to happen we want to
be able to do so please check the last
episode of ask Alicia for more about I
wish like the positivity next question
next question comes from rain Bryan
Bryan I'm very sorry hey Alicia what's
your height I am
1,000 centimeters tall or maybe I'm 6
centimeters taller this whole thing is
just a scam
next question next question comes from
Bowie then des bow a bow e then de
votante asks when can I use ever in a
present perfect sentence like I have
ever ever means at any time or at all
times you can use ever when you're
asking a question like have you ever
blah blah blah have you ever been to
France have you ever eaten ramen have
you ever taken a trip to the mountains
for example we can use ever when making
questions that's one but because ever
means at all time or at any time we may
not use it to answer a question like
that have you ever blah blah blah we
usually say yes or no in that in
response to that we can say I have never
ever taken a trip to France or I have
never ever forgotten my keys for example
I have never ever blah blah blah but in
that case it still means never an
expression like never ever just
emphasizes the word never so to use ever
we need to pare ever with a verb in a
sentence so we can't say I have ever
just I have plus a verb we cannot say I
have ever that's incorrect I have at
some at any time or at all times it's
it's redundant it's it's not necessary
we can however use ever in a negative
expression like I haven't ever been to
France or she hasn't ever eaten cheese
for example so we have to pare ever with
a negative to make a response we use
ever for present perfect tense questions
and paired with a negative have or has
to make a response to make a negative
response so please keep those two in my
first question from Harley passes hard
Harley peso hustle pass re Harley asks
what is the use of get plus adverb or
preposition for example I get down this
is a question about phrasal verbs with
get we can use a lot of different things
after the word get in your example to
get down we use it when dancing for
example like I want to get down this
weekend it's sort of an old-fashioned
expression now to get down we can use a
lot of different words after the verb
yet though for example get into to get
into something means to become
interested in something you might hear
to get at like get at me or get at your
professor to get at means to reach out
to or to communicate with but it's a
very casual expression you can say get
after like I need to get after my
homework for example it means to like
chase after or try to do something also
to get in like to get into a club to get
into a restaurant to get into a party
the nuance is that something is
challenging but you can gain access to
that thing like I got into the party
last night but I wasn't on the list
there are a lot of different uses of the
word yet I can't talk about all of them
in this video because there are so many
so if you're curious about the various
phrasal verbs that we can use with the
word yet check out a dictionary that's a
really good place to start next question
comes from Alexander hi Alexander
Alexander says hi Alicia what's the
difference between the words intelligent
smart and clever intelligent and smart
have the same meaning they mean someone
who has a lot of knowledge and the image
is that they got it from like books from
studying from classrooms from lectures
intelligent and smart they have that
same feeling about them but intelligence
sounds more formal smart is used a lot
among young people who have good
academic abilities for example clever
also means that someone has a lot of
knowledge but the idea with clever may
be they have knowledge from books and
classes yes but their knowledge is from
world
experience so they're really good with
like people in situations and they can
think quickly maybe and they have good
ideas that's someone who is clever
sometimes clever has the image of being
a little bit like sneaky too next
question next question comes from long
and long and asks what is the difference
between simple past tense and past
continuous tense or past progressive
tense simple past tense we use for
actions that started and ended in the
past so the beginning of the action and
the end of the action happened in the
past so for example the sentence I ate
breakfast is a simple past tense
statement I ate breakfast ate is a
simple past tense the past continuous
tense however or the past progressive
tense is something we used to talk about
an action that was continuing at a
specific point in time in the past if I
want to use the past progressive tense I
can say I was eating breakfast using
that continuous tense using that
progressive tense implies I want to
explain something else that happened at
that time or maybe I want to add some
more information so for example I was
eating breakfast at 8 o'clock this
morning or I was eating breakfast when
the phone rang or I was eating breakfast
and watching TV at the same time I was
eating breakfast while studying today by
using the past progressive I am
explaining that an action was continuing
at a specific point in time as in the
example I was eating breakfast at 8
o'clock or I can use past progressive to
show one action was happening at the
same time as another action in the past
if I use just the simple past tense I'm
just saying a simple fact in other words
this action happened I ate breakfast at
8 o'clock if I want to emphasize the
continuous nature of the action for some
reason like I was eating breakfast at 8
o'clock I can use the past progressive
tense in that case it might be in
response to a question like what were
you doing at 8 o'clock this morning so
if someone wants to ask maybe what you
were doing at a specific point in time
like someone is suspicious if you like
what were you doing last night you can
say like oh I was having dinner with my
friends
tonight but past tense simple past tense
is something we use for actions which
start and finish in the past but
progressive the progressive tense in
past can be used to emphasize the
continuing nature of that situation or
that action first question this week
comes from Eduardo hi Eduardo could you
explain please how to use the
expressions one at all to kind of three
actually for a big picture sure number
one at all we use at all as an emphasis
phrase after negative statements I don't
want to study at all today he doesn't
like me at all we can also use this
expression in question question two
about kind of it depends on which
expression you mean there's kind of
which can mean a little bit or somewhat
I kind of want to eat Vietnamese food
for dinner you'll also notice that the
pronunciation there changes to kinda
kinda not kind of but kinda kind of
depending on the way the sentence is
made though kind of can also refer to
types of something what kind of ice
cream do you like they don't know what
kind of house they want here kind of
means type so they don't know what kind
of house they want they don't know what
kind of food they want to eat for dinner
for example so check to see which way
kind of is being used if it's coming
before a verb like I kind of want to eat
or I kind of want to go then it probably
means a little bit but if it's coming
before and noun then it probably means
type of now so I hope that helps third
question about the word actually
actually right we use the word actually
when we want to explain the real
situation as we understand it so people
like to use actually actually to
introduce their opinion as though it's
fact sometimes so some examples of this
actually I don't live in the United
States I don't think he actually likes
chocolate so in these ways were
introducing a real situation as we
understand it we use actually to do that
your fourth question is about big
picture big picture is used to talk
about a broad idea of something so going
away from a small detail and talking
about like the entire city
at one time I know you think studying
vocabulary is boring but look at the big
picture it's important to know small
details
he's losing sight of the big picture
he's wasting time and money so the big
picture is kind of like maybe the the
bigger situation hope that helps next
question next question comes from yes in
yeah yes II yes in I'm very sorry what's
the difference between on time and in
time is it you arrived just on time or
you arrived just in time we use on time
to refer to doing something at the
correct time doing something at a
scheduled time so for example I need to
get to work on time meaning at the
correct time or did you make it to your
appointment on time in time however is
used when we want to kind of give a
nuance of rushing or hurrying for
something I need to leave my house now
to get to the airport in time for my
flight I need to study for my test now
if I want to be in time for the party
later you should probably leave now if
you want to be in time for the movie in
time for something else so I want to do
action a to make my schedule meet this
other condition this other thing I would
like to do with this other thing I need
to do in time for has the nuance of a
deadline we can use this expression in
like a panic like oh my gosh I'm not
going to make it in time
like to submit a paper I'm not going to
make it in time in time means like
before the deadline
whereas on time has the meaning of
completing an action or completing
something at a scheduled time next
question next question is from want
function hi mom friend hey Alicia what
does you just made my day mean I heard
this phrase but I don't fully understand
it yeah so you made my day is a really
positive phrase you can imagine this as
you just made my day
much better but we don't say much better
so we use this when someone gives us
good news we can say you just made my
day or you made my day just sounds like
something happened very recently you
just made my day
a raise you just made my day we get to
take the afternoon off
you just made my day
those are situations where someone is
really happy and wants to express that
the other person improved their day in
that moment nice expression next
question the next question comes from
gearson Silva hi what is the difference
between shade and shadow oh great
this is a great question both of these
words can be used to refer to a place
that is darker than its surroundings
because there's an object that is
blocking the light we can say there's
shade over there or there's a shadow
over there in that sentence they are
used the same however shadow refers to
the dark shape only so a person can cast
a shadow we use cast the verb cast with
the shadow I cast a shadow when I stand
in the Sun for example shade however as
a noun refers to or has the nuance of a
kind of shelter so shelter provided by
some other object shelter from the light
shelter from the Sun so we would say
stand in the shade because shade has the
nuance of shelter we would not say stand
in the shadow shadow does not carry the
nuance of shelter in the way that shade
does interestingly enough though shade
and shadow are both used as verbs as
well to Shadow something needs to follow
something closely to shadow someone at
work means to follow someone at work and
try to understand their job for example
shade is used as a verb to mean to
create shelter from light for example
the canopy shaded us from the Sun shade
also has some interesting uses you might
hear the slang phrase to throw shade
throwing shade is a really interesting
slang expression that we use which means
to communicate disrespect or to
communicate like contempt bad feelings
for something when you're speaking
generally in most cases when you want to
talk about a dark cool area we should
say shade stand in the shade when you
want to talk only about the dark area
that dark object use shadow next
question comes from Celso Moreno you
wrote your name in all caps back to back
what does it mean sometimes I hear it in
baseball games do you know yes I do know
the expression back to back means one
after another so we have two things
sometimes more back-to-back-to-back you
can put that in a line it means in
baseball for example like one homerun
after another we could say two homeruns
back-to-back two or more things
happening quickly in succession it's
used a lot in sports next question
actually two questions from Danny hi
Danny Danny's first question is you
talked about lit as slang yes I talked
about lit in episode 2 so 1 episode 2
I've asked Alisha can you please talk
about the verb light and using it an
active and passive sure light means to
start a fire so to light a fire to light
a candle some examples of active and
passive voice with this verb then why
don't we light some candles for dinner
tonight all the candles in the
restaurant were live on our camping trip
my neighbors lit a fire and we brought
hamburgers to me a fire was lit in the
campsite while we were gone I was going
to light a fire but I fell asleep so to
light means to start a fire he lit the
house on fire we can say to light bla
bla bla
on fire so there are a few different
examples of using the verb light in
active and in passive past tense
future tense as well so I hope that
that's helpful Danny's second question
can you talk about ride and its uses
like take someone for a ride can I take
a ride Ryan is another verb that has a
lot of different uses you use the
example to take someone for a ride means
to drive together with someone to go for
a ride has the nuance of doing something
just for fun it's just for fun I want to
take a ride to a location I want to take
a ride to the mountains this weekend or
take a ride to the beach but to take
someone for a ride means to invite
someone to drive somewhere with you in a
car that's one way to use ride you can
also say give me a ride can you give me
a ride so this is a request expression I
don't have a car my friend has a car I
want my friend to take me in their car
to a location I can say can you give me
a ride to the movie theater can you give
me a ride to the lake give me a ride is
a request so give me a ride in your car
so there are a lot of
a ride if you want to see all of them or
if you want to see more of them I
recommend checking a dictionary there
are quite a few and I can't talk about
them all in this video so please check a
dictionary next question is from
Anderson soon as that Anderson's house a
high Enderson Anderson asks hi Lisa how
are you doing I'm reading Harry Potter
and I just saw the sentence good night
Harry
how do you pronounce good night yeah
good night we sometimes say good night
good night so that damn good is dropped
we've removed that good sound and we say
good night good night good night that's
how you say it
next question ok next question is from
femme femme BAM what does you're too
good to be true mean is it good or not
maybe you've heard this in a famous song
you're too good to be true can't take my
eyes off of you in that case it's a good
meaning a different way to say this
expression is you are so good you are so
amazing that I can't believe you're real
so in other words something must be
wrong there must be some problem with
you it's not possible for you to be real
because you are so good you are so great
so you're too good to be true it's like
wow I'm amazed by you so it's a good
expression if however maybe in a more
uncommon situation someone said like
this guy is too good to be true
like maybe reviewing a job application
for example this girl she's too good to
be true like if it's said in that way
maybe there's something suspicious about
that person this doesn't seem right
there's just too much good information
here there must be some problem with
this person depending on the intonation
it can portray either a very positive
meaning or a very suspicious meaning in
most cases however it's a positive need
so if you heard this in a song for
example it's probably a very positive
kind of romantically nuanced phrase
thanks very much for that question film
next one next question is from Austria
Junior sorry I hope I said that right
Alisha how do we separate words in a
text when we get to the end of the line
your text formatting software should do
that for you do you use word words
should do that for you if you use just
text or note
there should be a word wrap function I
don't know nuke like Google and if that
doesn't help you
your second question though what is the
difference in pronunciation between life
and live or live for example my life is
good and two I live in a big city right
so life and the word that spelled Li ve
as in your example I live in a big city
have different pronunciations the vowel
pronunciation of the I sound is
different in life it's a very open sound
lie like life life in the second word
live the I sound is kind of tall Lily
it's very like kind of in your nose live
that's the first sound that's a bit
different so lai lai lai lai that's the
I sound that's different but then the
consonant sound is also different the F
in life so there's there's just air
coming out of my mouth I'm not making
any sound with my vocal cords they're
just life life with the word live
however I'm making a sound so that's the
difference so I have to I have to use my
vocal cords to make the sound so life no
vocal cords live vocal cords use however
do be careful live Li ve can also be
pronounced live so that V sound I talked
about where you use your vocal cords
plus that open e sound live so like a
live performance for example so you need
to pay attention to the grammar of the
sentence to understand if it's live or
live as well so life and live have very
different pronunciations good one my
sketch I hope you can practice those
next question Rabia Arshad rate Rabia
Arshad Rabia or ferrous iron bear what's
the difference between can and may I saw
this on the dining like a champ cheat
sheet and noticed these words were used
for requests what's the difference can
and may for requests in modern English
men modern American English are used the
same if I use them in
can refers to ability may refers to
permission please just be careful can
and may are only used in the same way to
make requests in modern American English
next question is from Harley hi Harley
hello again
what is the correct use it's I have
breakfast I have lunch I have dinner or
I breakfast i lunch i dinner i dine ah
nice question Harley I use the I have
lunch I have dinner I have breakfast
version if you drop have you sound very
posh posh means like fashionable
sophisticated a bit rich as well so I'm
not any of those things but saying I'm
breakfast i lunch i dinner it sounds
like you have a very high opinion of
that activity in most cases at least in
my life I don't have a reason to speak
like that so I always say I have
breakfast or I have lunch or I have
dinner it's not incorrect to say I
breakfast i lunch like dying but it
sounds a bit unnatural in most everyday
life situations you don't really need to
talk with that level of formality
I don't think next question next
question is from feriss ferriss Ghazali
Ferris gastly I'm very sorry
Ferris asks hey Alicia can we use hasn't
in an essay has it's the contracted form
of has not you can it's physically
possible for you to use peasant in an
essay sure but if you use contractions
in your writing it makes you in my
opinion it makes me sound a bit less
formal if you use the expanded form the
unbeknown contracted version you're
gonna sound a bit more formal a bit more
polished I feel this does not only apply
to the word has not and hasn't therefore
this applies to all contractions really
the answer is yes you can but I don't
necessarily recommend it if you want to
sound formal and polished thanks for
that question though Baris next question
what does the word litt mean what does
the word with me litt is actually a
slang word it's common slang among young
people especially in the u.s. right now
maybe many of you know that I've ever to
light
has the past-tense lit lit is used to
talk about for example a party or some
kind of social gathering usually that's
really exciting or that's really really
fun or that's kind of crazy so lit using
the past tense there you can kind of
imagine that like a fire when you light
a fire it may be it gets bigger and it
gets kind of wild a little bit crazy
like there's a spark and then it starts
so if you see the word lit like this
party was lit it means it was really
crazy it was really good it was really
fun you can use it if you want but just
keep in mind that really young people
use that word I don't use that word for
reference but again I'm not first
question first question this week comes
from I'm on again hi I'm honest and lots
of questions think which one is correct
I want rest or I want to take rest well
you can say I want rest to mean in
general just you would like to do
nothing to relax
grammatically though I want to take a
rest is correct or I want to rest both
of those are correct
however in American English we don't
usually say I want to take a rest it's
more common to say I want to take a
break I want to take a break or let's
take a break or can we take a break
something like that is more common you
can say I want to take a rest
but again in American English rest is
less common next question what is
correct I thought you were gone or I
thought you are gone I thought you are
gone we need to use I thought you were
gone here I thought you were gone so I
thought past tense and you were is also
past tense it's a past tense thought
past tense situation so please use
Passons next question from Gabriella hi
Gabriella hi Lisa what is the difference
between use to and used to in fast
speech the difference in pronunciation
yeah basically when we're speaking
quickly or I suppose even not quickly we
tend to pronounce used to as used to the
grammar doesn't change it's just the
pronunciation changes because it's
difficult to say you
just to very quickly I used to I used to
it's very difficult to say so we just
say used to instead I used to use a
smartphone he used to play soccer we
used to cook everyday in each of these
sentences I contracted used to - used to
I think actually in most cases we
probably do say used to instead of used
to because it's quite difficult to say
again this shouldn't really cause any
communication problems used to and used
to have the same meaning just different
pronunciation next question also maybe
about were and less why do we use if I
were and not if I was this is a great
question and actually a lot of native
speakers make mistakes with this it's a
small point to be fair but if you want
to be correct you should always use if I
were this is a grammar point it refers
to the subjunctive mood the subjunctive
mood an explanation of subjunctive is a
bit beyond the scope it's a bit much for
this video but we will always use if I
were when the subject there is I in the
conditional if I were we always use work
you will hear native speakers say if I
was if I was if you want to be extremely
strict and extremely nitpicky word is
actually the correct one but if you use
was if you make a mistake and you use
was you will still be understood so but
yes this is related to the subjunctive
mood in English next question from suing
Tetsu in teh hope I said that right
xunte says highly show which word do you
prefer using as an American America the
United States the United States of
America the US the USA or the states I
only started using America to refer to
my country when I moved to Japan because
the people around me use the word
America to refer to the country but I
think before that I said the US I used
the US people would say where are you
from the US why did I use the US because
it's short and easy to say the US I
don't want to say the United States of
America it sounds long to me thanks for

来自 Winston,您好 Winston Winston
说我不懂英语 我
想学习,但我不知道如何开始
我是新手 我会写很多这样的问题
所以真的有很多
不同的方法可以让你开始
学习一门语言 当然
我们的 YouTube 上有很多视频 频道
,我们有一个完整的网站来
帮助正在学习英语的人 您
可以在 English class
101.com 上查看我们 您可以找到类似的应用程序 您可以
找到要收听的工作表播客,
这是开始我们的好方法 也有
一些适合初学者的视频,所以如果
你刚刚开始,你可以查看
我们在频道上的一些初学者级别的视频
,例如三
分钟内的英语,这是一组很好的视频,你
可以观看以学习一些基本的短语我
认为 所以这可能是您开始的好地方,
但让我们看看
其他一些适合初学者的想法,特别
是在您所在城市参加英语课
以获得英语教科书并在家学习
三与说
英语的人进行语言交流以学习词汇
使用应用程序尝试这些是一些
想法,当然您也可以随时
在频道上使用我们的视频,所以我希望
这对我们在哪里使用
想要和要去以及如何啊这个
问题是关于临时合同
形式的 想要和去所以
什么变成想要去变成去在
随意的演讲中我们使用它们的
方式与我们使用的方式完全相同
它们以
完全相同的方式使用,这意味着我们可以
随意使用它们,
例如我想休息一天,或者
这个周末我要去海滩,或者
你今晚想看电影吗?
我们以完全相同的方式使用它们 用
想要和要去,但我们 在
演讲中使用它们 通常我们不会写这些,
除非我们正在写非常随意的
消息,例如给
朋友的短信或下一个我收到
下一个问题几次,大概是
三到四次好吧问题
是关于形容词的
我们之前做的比较视频,所以我
介绍了 fun 这个词作为比较形式的不规则
形容词,
所以 fun 是一个形容词,我们
用于活动或
令人愉快的事情,我们喜欢做的事情 fun
与 形容词 fun fun
是一个形容词,一个名词
实际上很有趣只是一个形容词 fun
指的是令人愉快的活动 fun
然而是指
让我们发笑的东西 它让我们发笑因为
某事很幽默 某事如
幽默
所以例如我们可以说要去
游乐园很有趣,如果不是很有趣,它
不是幽默,但很有趣让我们
稍微分解一下,让我们
把它想象成形容词形式的乐趣
他 re fun 是一项令人愉快的活动
我们喜欢做的事情 有趣
但是因为幽默而引起
笑声 去
游乐园很有趣 看这个
视频很有趣 也许很有趣 我不知道 制作
这些视频很有趣 但很有趣 我们用 fun
来表示例如一个人或一部
电影或某事让我们
因为幽默而发笑等等
很有趣 有趣 有趣 有趣 有趣 不有趣 有趣
有趣 不有趣 不有趣 有趣
不有趣 有趣 所以去看一部有趣的
电影很有趣 想想因为
这两个词不同 fun
是一个形容词 fun 是一个形容词
fun 比较形式是 more fun or
less fun fun II 的比较形式
更有趣或不那么有趣所以这就是为什么
我在那个视频中使用了两个不同的例子
谢谢这个问题虽然

fr om Carmel Carmel 说你
对如何提高英语口语能力有任何想法吗?
是的,为了提高你的口语,你
必须练习口语 这里有
一些想法可以用来
帮助你提高口语
这些想法只是为了
练习方法 所以有机会练习
第一 找一个伙伴 你可以
用它来练习说英语 可以在
你的城市或你的社区 所以找一个
伙伴来练习说
英语 这可以是一个语言交换
伙伴 例如,如果可以的话
在您所在的城镇或城市中找不到任何人与您一起
练习说英语 可以
尝试在第 3 号线上寻找合作伙伴 尝试
录制自己的讲话
如果您喜欢,可以使用手机来执行此操作 只需
录制您说话的声音
然后听 再说一遍,你可能没有
意识到,但
听到自己的声音真的很有帮助,就像
在你的身体外面一样,实际上我们
在网站上有一些东西,你可以
在英语 1 课上查看 01.com
有一个录音机功能,因此您
可以录制您的声音,然后将
您的声音与
母语人士的声音进行比较,并尝试练习直到
您的声音与他们的声音相匹配,
这样可能是另一个
想法 4 尝试重复
英语电视和英语
电影中的人物说的话 如果你在看电视 如果
你在看在线视频 如果你在
听音乐 用英语
试着重复你听到的东西 所以
不仅听 听 听
试着练习说出
人物或艺术家对第五号说的话,
这可能是一个奇怪的建议
,但试着用
英语自言自语实际上我经常这样做我正在
学习日语,我
不时用日语自言自语 时间,所以这
对我有一点帮助,但让我感到
舒服,只是说同样的
短语,所以也许这对你有帮助,
这五个想法或者你可以
做些什么来提高你的

Sena Wong Wong 说没有人报名
非常抱歉 非常抱歉 我没
去过日本 我没去过日本
之前 我没吃过马 我没
吃过 horse before 我的问题是,如果你
把before放在这些句子的末尾,
这是否意味着你现在在日本
或者你现在正在吃马,不一定
像以前一样在句尾想到before now I've never
以前吃马 horse
现在你当然可以这样使用它,
但如果
你想强调它,例如如果
你要吃 horse ,它并不一定意味着它
在你表现出你的兴趣之前使用我从未吃过马
或者也许是为了
表现出
对你将要做的事情的焦虑或紧张情绪
但是不,这并不一定意味着
您在那个地方,例如,您
可能只是在交谈
之前您吃过马吗?不,我
从来没有吃过马,之前它可能只是

Long John Young Johnny 很抱歉哪
一个是正确的
我每天锻炼一到两个小时 我每天锻炼一到两个小时 我
每天喝两到三杯咖啡 我
喝两到三杯咖啡 一天几次
啊,这两个都是正确的,实际上在
这种情况下,每天
1 到 2 个小时之间的差异非常小,
如果
你说我每天锻炼 1 到 2
个小时,
这意味着一到两个小时之间 它被确定
为仅用于锻炼 1 小时或仅用于锻炼 2 小时,
所以这里的区别是
您确定您是决定 1 小时
还是 2 杯咖啡或 3 杯咖啡,
还是介于这两个量之间,所以
使用 1 到 2 或 2 到 3 表示在
这两个数量之间使用或显示它
是 A 或 B 但不是在这
两者之间 这是 2 和或
下一个问题之间的区别 下一个问题来自
Bowie 我在
像 I 这样的现在完美句中使用 ever have ever
意思是在任何时候或任何时候,
当你问这样一个问题时,你可以使用 ever,
比如
你有没有去过法国,
你有没有吃过拉面,你有
没有去过山上旅行? 例如,我们
可以在提出问题时使用 ever
,但是因为 ever 意味着在任何
时候或
很多次我们可能不会使用它来
回答这样的问题,你有没有 blah
blah blah 我们通常会说是或否
来回应那个 我们可以说我
从来没有去过法国旅行,
或者我从来没有忘记过我的钥匙
,例如我从来没有等等
等等,但在那种情况下,它仍然意味着
永远不会像永远这样的表达方式只是
强调从未如此使用这个词
曾经我们需要在句子中与动词配对
所以我们不能说我曾经
只是我有加上一个我们不能说我曾经有的动词
是不正确的
我在任何时候或任何时候都有
它是多余的 没有
必要,我们可以使用 eve r 用一个
否定的表达方式,比如我从来
没有去过法国,或者她从来没有吃过
奶酪,所以我们必须
用否定来做出回应,
我们曾经用过现在完成时态
问题并与否定配对
必须或必须做出回应才能做出
否定的回应,所以请
把这两个留在我的下一个

want to 和 going to 的随意缩略形式 so what to
become want going to to become going to 在
随意的演讲中我们使用它们的
方式与我们使用的方式完全相同
我们以
完全相同的方式使用它们,这意味着我们
在休闲情况下使用它们,比如我想
休息一天,或者我
这个周末要去海滩,或者你
今晚想看电影吗?我们使用它们
与我们使用 want to 和 going to 的方式完全相同,
但是 我们通常在演讲中使用它们 我们
不会写这些,除非我们正在写
非常随意的消息,例如
给我们的朋友的短信或一些第一个
问题,你们中的很多人问
我该怎么做才能得到
一个听起来像我的 我制作
这些视频我特别想
清楚地说话,所以我明确区分
我与
朋友交谈的方式和我
经常交谈的
方式与我在这个频道上交谈的方式有点不同,但如果
你想尝试获得这种
发音我最好的建议
就是重复这种
发音这取决于你的目标如果
你想学会像我一样说话或
像其他你真正钦佩的人一样说话
你应该尝试 模仿他们
这就是我所做的,这实际上是
我在学习其他语言时使用的一种策略,
所以如果我听到一些
有趣的东西,
比如一个朋友在日语中使用过的词汇,
或者他们的语调非常好
离子或只是他们传达
的方式 他们说某事的方式
对我
来说真的很有趣或我想要 复制它
本质上是为了使这个解释
更短模仿模仿如果你想学
着像我一样说话模仿我如果你想
学着像别人一样说话试着
模仿别人但请
记住我在这些视频中说话的方式
和我在现实生活中说话的方式不同

来自驻军席尔瓦再次驻军
我什么时候可以使用表达认为
理所当然认为这是
我们通常的表达 用在
否定句中,比如不要把某
事视为理所当然,不要把某事视为
理所当然,这意味着不要忘记
欣赏这件事或这个人
,例如,不要把你的父母视为理所当然或不要把你的父母
视为理所当然 这个机会
是理所当然的,这些表达意味着不要
忘记欣赏这些东西,或者
不要仅仅忽视你的父母,或者
不要阅读忽视这个

个人 问题来自 Carla 嗨
Carla
Carla 问你们母语人士是
如何使用
的 动词的语法
功能当我们将它与
动词的过去分词形式配对时,例如
我有加过去分词来制作
现在完成时,或者我有
加过去分词来制作过去
完成时所以有那种
语法功能 动词 have
但是,如果您只想
在日常情况下使用动词 have,例如我
有电话,或者我有相机,或者我
没有任何钱,那么
在这种情况下,拥有只是意味着拥有 某物
或持有某物以保持
某物,因此请考虑
您正在查看的带有动词的句子,
如果它出现
在过去分词中的动词之前,则它
可能是过去完成时或现在
完成时表达
在我的例子中看到动词之后的东西就像一个对象,比如电话、
相机或金钱,那么它可能是
指拥有某物或保留
某物,所以这可能
是您看到动词拥有的两种最常见的方式

Daniel silver oh hi Daniel
Daniel 问什么是
愿望和欲望之间的区别 来自
巴拉圭的问候 hey
愿望和欲望之间有什么区别
你想要一些
与当前情况不同的东西,
所以我们经常将它与我希望
我是或我希望我能我们
想要的东西或我们想要的能力一起使用 nt,但
我们现在没有未来的东西,
所以我希望我能说七种语言,
或者我希望我有一百万美元,或者我
希望我每周有更多的时间休假
,例如
与目前情况不同的事情
当前情况我们使用希望或我希望
它会打电话给我例如我希望你
会或我希望你能表达
一些现在没有发生的事情
另一方面欲望往往
更正式地使用,它也可以
携带更浪漫 细微差别它
不像“
愿望”这个词
那样在对话中
使用得那么多 不必要的
正式我觉得你可能会在
更正式的商业环境中使用它,比如
我们的客户想要更多
关于这种情况的信息,这可能是
对“欲望”这个词的不同用法,但我
一般来说,
如果你在谈论一个人
,或者如果你说我
希望你,这听起来
有点奇怪 在美式英语中,如果你
想使用“欲望”这个词,我认为在
浪漫的情况下,它可能会应用
在一个短语中,比如他充满
欲望或她充满欲望,
更多地用作名词而不是动词,所以
我建议不要使用 非常
渴望谈论您的需求,因为这听起来
有点过于正式,或者可能会给情况带来
错误的细微差别,
但希望用于表达
对某事的希望或想要
与当前情况不同的某事,
所以我希望 这有帮助
第一个问题来自 Ferris
Ghazali 如果
在我无法使用
母语的情况下 我
无法使用英语 我会
和
不会说英语的朋友一起出去吃饭和喝酒 我
别无选择,只能与他们使用不同的语言
我注意到
我的一些学生所做的事情实际上
让我感到困扰他们
在课堂上带了一本字典,他们会
在课堂上停止对话以检查
字典中的单词并一次说
一个单词,而不是仅仅
尝试 找到一种不同的方式来
解释它完全停止了
与您的对话流程
在
大多数情况下您
不会随身携带
字典我希望除非它
在 你的电话 我想第三个 我
认为这是一个发展更好技能的机会,
而不是试图
翻译成英语或翻译
成另一种语言 你应该
考虑找到一种不同的方式
解释
你想用的词 比如说你想用
美丽的词,但你不记得
这个词你会如何解释,所以
即使你没有
词汇,也要考虑其他方式来传达一个想法 所以去
字典不一定是
第一步 它
不一定是你的第一步
考虑一种不同的方式来传达
你试图传达的想法 想
一些例子来解释你所使用的词
如果您
正在与某人一起工作,或者您正在与
了解您不是
母语的人交谈,那么其他人可以教您
你他们将成为你的老师
我只是用肢体语言解释,
如果我不知道工作,那么
另一件事真正帮助我的
不仅仅是学习词汇,而是
实际上将事物作为短语来处理,
所以不要说 g 好吧,这个
词在我的语言中等于这个词,但这里有一个
短语,它传达的意思是
我很感兴趣或者我听到我的
朋友经常使用我将使用那个
短语所以不要只是输入输入输入
开始 输出太 所以希望
对你有帮助
所有副词它们具有相同的
语法功能也许可能,
也许,也许,也许
非常密切相关
也许这个周末
我会去海滩 也许这个周末我会去海滩
他们真的有相同的
意思,但也许听起来更像 rmal
可能但是不同 可能
比这个列表中的其他词表达更高水平的可能性 我
可能这个周末去海滩
就像说话人这个周末去海滩的可能性是 75% 到 80%
可能 但是 可能有更多的
细微差别,只是可以做某事
可以做一些我们
在请求中使用的可能更多的事情,比如
你能不能对我等等等等,你能不能
把这个文件发给我?对于随意的谈话来说,这个文件可能
听起来有点太正式了
和邀请,但如果
你在工作中使用它,例如
,你可能会在本周晚些时候见到我,
而不是你可能会见到我,
所以可能和可能之间的区别
,也许他们可能
有那条路线是的,可能能够所以
也许 也许没有那种细微差别
可能听起来像 有没有可能
是你能做这件事吗
也许也许不包含这种细微差别
所以回顾一下也许是我们
ed 表示同一件事发生某事的机会
也许更正式

人第一个问题来自
Shunichi Saito - Ichi Shinichi 说我
想知道这是什么意思
例如它非常昂贵 虽然我
在句尾看到了这个词,但是
非常
是的,你们中的很多人最近都发过这个
问题,所以我在
上一集问艾丽西亚关于
使用这个词时谈到了虽然 th Oh ugh 在
句尾的意思 但
最后作为 entence,我们使用它有点
随意,所以当你看到这个词时,虽然
th oh 它就像是
oth oh ugh 在句尾的更随意的版本,
所以你会在社交媒体上看到很多
这样的词,你会 当
你在 Facebook 或 Twitter 或
Instagram 上发短信时看到这个可能虽然
只是意味着但在句子的末尾
所以在你的例句
中它真的很贵虽然
这意味着它真的很贵
但它就像只是把那个
句尾有一点点,但有点不同意的感觉,
所以有点像你知道的
不同意或
意见不同
的轻微
差异 更详细一点,你可以
查看这个视频,我
在句子的末尾用其他一些例子谈了更多关于 th Oh ugh
所以我
希望这对
你有帮助我知道你们中的许多人迟到了这个问题 下一个
问题 下一个人问了两个
问题,所以接下来的两个问题
来自 SL juarez Ciotti 哪里 sia
DI 他们很抱歉 来自 essa 的问题一个
你能不能彻底解释一下,
并认为它们听起来很相似,是的,
它们确实听起来很相似,而且它们
甚至在书面上看起来很相似,
但是这些词在语音和写作中具有不同的
含义和不同的功能,
让我们先看看
through 隧道或者如果
您正在查看文档,例如
,通过文档意味着从头到尾阅读文档的
所有内容
,因此通过某事是从
某事开始并通过所有
内容到 穿过一切,
从另一边出来或
完成某事,所以我们也用“
通过”这个词来表示
美式英语中的完成,就像你一样
吃完晚餐或者我完成了我的
作业所以通过这些是
我们使用这个词的几种不同方式
通过第二个词彻底
彻底如此不同通过
彻底意味着全面彻底
意味着完全彻底意味着
做得好它通常具有积极意义
例如,
她对“通过”这个词的
解释非常透彻,或者她对“透彻
”这个词的解释非常
透彻
大量的知识 大量的
信息,所以
请彻底完成你的
作业,或者他在打扫房间时不是很彻底,
所以彻底意味着做得很好
,完全完成了,所以
考虑到所有事情的所有
方面,即使是小
细节也是 考虑透彻,因此我们可以
将透彻用于
需要 sm 的活动的演示文稿 所有细节都进行了
彻底的安全检查,例如,
这些是
完全针对小细节完成的操作,所以
这是彻底的下一步我们在这里
虽然虽然你可以
以与你对这个词的想法相同的方式思考
但所以它是 用于对比
信息 它用于表达某
事的不同之处,因此您可以
用 tho 之类的表达方式来遵循某人的意见,
例如,我
认为夏天是最好的季节,尽管
冬天也很有趣,因此您可以
用相同的方式思考 你
想到but athough be 所以你
提出a 然后是一个对比
意见B 你把这
两个想法
和虽然联系
起来 类似的方式有什么
区别,但更随意,
但
如果您正在编写
正式文档或正在制作正式文档,则在休闲对话和日常对话中使用得更多
你可以使用的陈述虽然
代替但所以虽然显示对比
信息此列表中的最后一个是
认为认为认为是
用作动词时认为的过去时所以我
认为你今天要来或者我
认为它会下雨 后来,或者我
认为这是一个很棒的下午
,think 被用作 think 的过去式,
我们也可以使用 think
将想法作为名词来指代,所以我有一个想法
,或者你
对这个项目有什么想法,所以我们 可以将思想
用作 think 的动词过去式或用作
名词来指代一个想法,因此
,尽管如此彻底,并且认为
你们中的一些人可能想知道
当我阅读
或当我在阅读时,我如何记住哪个是哪个 听你要
注意句子的语法
它们都有不同的语法
功能所以你需要考虑
围绕单词的语法下一个

韩勇熙韩潘乔尼乔尼对不起艾丽西亚
这是什么 也许
可能也许和可能很好的
问题之间的区别也许也许可能
好吧也许也许也许和可能
这些都是副词它们具有相同的
语法功能也许也许
也许和可能也许并且也许
非常密切相关
意思,
但只是正式程度不同,
也许就像较低的级别
,这个词的更随意的版本也许所以
也许我这个周末去海滩
,也许我这个周末去海滩
他们真的有相同的意思,但是
也许听起来更正式 可能
但是不同
可能
比这个列表中的其他词表达更高水平的可能性
我可能会在这个周末去海滩 这就像演讲者这个去海滩
的 75% 到 80% 的
机会
周末可能但是
可能有更多的细微差别,只是
可以做某事,
可以做一些我们使用 poss 的事情
更多的请求,比如你
能不能把它发给我这个文件
可能听起来有点太正式,不适合
随意的谈话和邀请,但
如果你在工作中使用它,例如
,你可能会在本周晚些时候见到我吗?
你可能会遇到我吗
所以可能和
可能和也许他们可能之间的区别
有那条路线
是的可能能够所以可能而且
也许没有那种细微差别可能
听起来像有可能是你
能做到这一点 事情可能也可能
不包含这种细微差别,
所以概括一下,也许并且可能
用于表达同一件事发生某事的机会
也许更
正式,可能以类似的方式使用,
但它更多地指的是简单的
可能性而不是它 你
能做到那件事可能表示
很有可能下一个问题
下一个问题来自穆罕默德的俄亥俄州

伟大任务和流行的伟大任务有什么区别 离子
著名是众所周知的事情,
很多人都知道那件事或
那个人 碧昂丝很有名
自由女神像很有名 艾菲尔铁塔
很有名 很受欢迎 但是意味着很多人都
知道它,并且喜欢它有一个
积极的形象,所以喜欢 碧昂丝很
受欢迎,或者像著名的糖果
一样受欢迎,就像巧克力蛋糕很受欢迎,
这是一种著名的食物,很多人喜欢
它,所以很受欢迎,很有名加上像
正面形象有时我们可以用
这两个词来形容同一件事,所以
碧昂丝很有名碧昂丝是 受欢迎但
出名并不总是意味着他们很
受欢迎,因此在这种情况下,某人可能会因一件坏事而出名,
尽管通常
最好使用“臭名昭著”这个词 臭名昭著
臭名昭著的意思是因不良原因
而出名,因此因负面
问题而出名 SF

这有助于本周的第
一个问题是巴哈的一个问题,他们
是我很抱歉,艾丽西亚,我想
了解和喜欢什么是 它们
之间的区别以like开头是
介词记住介词是
我们用来显示与
其他单词的关系或
在句子中定位元素的单词,例如act和by
等也是介词单词
light是介词但是单词
as 是连词 连词
是连接
句子中元素的词 so 例如 and but or for
so 这些词是连词
,我们使用 like 和 as 进行
比较 关于
如何使用 like 和 as 的一般协议 时间点
是,如果您
使用像名词短语这样的简单语句来跟随单词 like,
则应该使用单词 like if
但是,
单词 like while 之后的部分在
子句在这句话的那部分有一个动词,
你应该使用 as 来做到
这一点,因为作为
连词的函数记住它连接
句子中的元素,所以
如果只有一个简单的短语或者
它就像一个简单的名词短语,我们应该使用 like
like that after like or as so 举
一些例子,我的同事吃得像
猪一样,
在这种情况下,我使用了“像”这个词,
因为在像猪一样之后,这只是
一个简单的名词短语,如果我说
我的同事吃得好像他是 一头猪 我正在
使用动词 我正在使用动词
就像他一样,所以我们可以在任何情况下使用广告,
只要我们在语句后面加上一个
我们可以使用的动词,就像我们
在该语句后面加上一个简单的名词
短语的情况一样 一般来说,我们都会使用它们来
进行比较
比起在日常对话中,我
倾向于使用 like 我非常依赖 like 来
进行比较和
情况,就像你一样,就像
他一样,就像我
觉得至少在
美国英语使用者中更常见,所以
你可能会 看好像和
好像我们可以用来进行比较的这两个
词都出现在一个简单的名词短语
之前,就像在包含ver是的东西之前使用,

您对报纸的具体内容并不重要,
并且如果您想暗示
您每天
早上都阅读任何报纸,则应该
使用 that 在这种情况下,也许
有一份特定的报纸使用了之前的
报纸,虽然
听起来你
每天早上都在读一份特定的报纸,如果你说我
每天早上都读一份报纸,听起来很像 e
您
只需选择当天可用的任何报纸并
阅读该报纸,因此使用节目
表明有特定的或暗示
您每天都会阅读的报纸您
不必具体说明哪
一份 你可以喜欢我每天读纽约
时报,或者我每天读卫报
,但是如果你说我
每天读一份报纸,
听起来你不是每天都选择同一份报纸
,这就是
这两个短语之间的区别 然而,大多数人确实
每天都选择同一份报纸
,所以他们使用我
每天都读报纸你可以说我每天也读新闻
,但是使用这个
短语新闻就像
我读那天新闻的那天的新闻
我每天阅读前一天新闻的
每一天,所以通常我们说我们
不用于新闻的新闻听起来
有点奇怪,所以同样
的事情适用于报纸大多数
人每次都选择相同的报纸
一天,所以我们说报纸而不是
报纸,但感谢这个问题
泰勒感谢下一个问题下一个
问题来自杰弗里嗨杰弗里
杰弗里有时会问我看
电影有些角色说你希望以
非常愤怒的态度或者我希望在其他
情况下做什么 这两句话的
意思是我该如何使用它
一个有趣的问题好吧当
有人回应你时想要一个
否定的建议就像他们
相互在一起他们
意识到他们不喜欢对方所以
通常是第一个字符 会说
一些负面的
建议,比如你应该
离开城镇并找到一份不同的工作让
我们一个人呆着这样的话,
然后另一个角色会说是的,你
希望像是的这个角色
承认你想让我这样做是的,
但是 换句话说,我不会那样做,
所以这有点像挑战,
所以这个人说这个负面
建议,另一个人承认
这个建议 stion 说不,我不会那样
做,但我知道你想让我那样做
,所以你愿意,这样就意味着这
就像一个消极的挑战,看起来他们
正在战斗,认识到他们
不喜欢对方,所以这是一个
另一个 另一个是什么,
所以我希望我们在
上一集的
delecia 中讨论过,所以请检查一下,但
本质上,我希望是
指我们现在不能做的事情,或者
与目前情况不同
但我们想要的事情 我们希望发生,我们希望
能够这样
做 厘米高或者我可能
高 6 厘米 这整个事情
只是一个骗局
下一个问题 下一个问题来自
Bowie 然后 des bow a bow e 然后 de
votante 问我什么时候可以
像我曾经一样在现在的完美句子中使用
ever ever 意味着在任何时候或任何时候,
当你问一个问题时,你都可以使用 ever,
比如你
有没有去过
法国,你有没有吃过拉面,
你有没有去过山上旅行
,例如我们 可以在提出问题时使用ever
,但因为ever
意味着在任何时候或任何时候我们
都不能用它来回答这样
的问题,你有没有过等等,我们
通常会说是或否,以
回应我们可以 说我从来
没有去过法国旅行,或者我
从来没有忘记过我的钥匙,例如
我从来没有 blah blah blah,但在
这种情况下,它仍然意味着永远不会
像 never ever 那样的表达只是
强调这个词 never so to use ever
we 需要在句子中与动词配对,
所以我们不能说 I have ever
just I have 加上一个动词,我们不能说 I
have ever 不正确的 I have at
some at any time or all times it's
it's red it's it's not 必要的,
但我们可以在否定中使用
比如我从来没有去过
法国或者她从来没有吃过奶酪
这样的表达方式,所以我们必须
用否定词来做出我们
曾经用于现在完成时态问题的回应,
并与否定词 have 或 has 配对
做出回应以做出否定的
回应,所以请把这两个保留在我的
第一个问题中 Harley pass hard
Harley peso hustle pass re Harley 问
get 加副词或介词有什么用,
例如 I get down 这
是一个关于短语的问题 带
get 的动词,我们可以
在你的例子中的 get 之后使用很多不同的东西 to
get down 我们在跳舞时使用它,
例如我想这个周末下来,
这是一种老式的
表达 now to get down we can
在动词之后使用很多不同的词,
但是例如 get into to get
into something 意味着对
你可能听到的东西感兴趣
,比如 get at me 或 get at your
Professor to get at 接触或接触的意思
交流,但这是一个
非常随意的表达方式,你可以说
get after like I need to get to my
homework 例如,它的意思是喜欢
追逐或尝试做某事
也进入喜欢进入俱乐部
进入餐厅 参加派对
的细微差别是有些东西很
有挑战性,但你可以
像昨晚参加派对一样获得那个东西,
但我不在名单
上,这个词有很多不同的用法,
但我可以' 不要
在这个视频中谈论所有这些,因为有这么多,
所以如果你对
我们可以与这个词一起使用的各种短语动词感到好奇,
但请查看字典,这是一个
非常好的开始下一个问题
来自 Alexander hi 亚历山大
亚历山大说,嗨,艾丽西亚
,聪明的聪明和聪明的聪明和聪明这两个词
有什么区别,它们的意思是一样的,意思是
有很多知识的人,形象
是他们从像从 cl 学习的书里得到它
课堂上的教室
聪明和聪明 他们对他们有
同样的感觉,但智力
听起来更正式 smart
在具有良好学术能力的年轻人中经常使用
,例如聪明
也意味着某人有很多
知识,但聪明的想法可能
是 他们从书本和
课堂上获得知识
有点像偷偷摸摸的下一个
问题下一个问题来自 long
and long 并询问
简单过去时和过去
进行时或过去进行
时之间有什么区别我们用于过去
开始和结束的动作的
过去时所以开始 动作和
动作的结束发生在
过去所以例如句子我吃
早餐是一个简单的过去
时 tatement I ate breakfast ate 是
简单的过去式 过去进行
时 然而,过去进行
时是我们用来谈论
在过去某个特定时间点继续进行的动作,
如果我
想使用过去进行时 我
可以说我正在吃早餐
,用那个
进行时态表示我想
解释当时发生的其他事情
,或者我想添加
更多信息,例如我
今天早上 8 点在吃早餐
或者
当电话响起时我正在吃早餐或者我正在吃早餐
和看电视的同时我正在
吃早餐今天学习
使用过去进行时我正在
解释一个动作
在特定时间点继续进行,如
例如,我在 8 点吃早餐,
或者如果我只使用简单的 p,我可以使用过去进行来
显示一个动作
与过去的另一个动作同时发生
我
只是在说一个简单的事实,换句话说,
这个动作发生了我在
8 点吃早餐如果我想
强调动作的连续性,出于某种
原因,比如我在 8 点吃早餐
我可以
在这种情况下使用过去进行时态,它可能是为了
回答一个问题,比如
你今天早上 8 点在做什么,所以
如果有人想问
你在特定时间点做了什么,
比如有人怀疑,如果 你喜欢
你昨晚在做什么你可以
说像哦我今晚和我的朋友共进晚餐
但是过去时简单过去时
是我们用于
过去开始和结束的动作的东西但是
渐进式过去的进行时
可以使用 为了强调
这种情况或行动的持续性,
本周第一个问题
来自爱德华多,你好爱德华多,你能
解释一下如何使用
表达一到三,
实际上是一个大的画面确定数字
one at all 我们
在否定陈述之后使用一个强调短语我
今天根本不想研究他根本不
喜欢我我们也可以
在问题二中使用这个表达
关于它的种类取决于哪个
表达 你的意思是
有些可能意味着有点或有点
我有点想在
晚餐时吃越南菜你还会注意到那里的
发音有点变化
有点不是有点而是有点
取决于句子的方式
made though kind of 也可以指
某物的类型 你喜欢什么样的
冰淇淋 他们不知道
他们想要什么样的房子 这里 kind 是
指类型所以他们不
知道他们想要什么样的房子 例如,不知道
他们晚餐想吃什么样的食物
,所以检查一下使用哪种方式
,如果它出现
在像 I kind of want to eat
或 I kind of want to go 这样的动词之前,那么它可能
意味着 一点点,但如果它在
之前和名词 n 它可能意味着
现在的类型,所以我希望
对关于这个词的第三个问题有帮助
有时这是事实,所以有些例子
实际上我不住在美国
about big
picture big picture 用于
谈论某事的广泛概念,因此
从一个小细节出发,一次
谈论整个城市
我知道你认为学习
词汇很无聊,但看大局,
了解这一点很重要 小
细节
他忽略了大局
他在浪费时间和金钱 所以
大局有点像也许
更大的情况 希望对下
一个问题有帮助 下一个问题 来自 是 在
是 是 II 是 在 我很抱歉
准时和
准时有什么区别是你准时
到达还是准时到达 我们用准时
来指在
正确的时间做某事 在
预定的时间做某事,例如,我需要
准时上班,意思是在
正确的时间,或者您是否
准时按时赴约,
但是当我们想要给出一种
匆忙或匆忙的细微差别时使用
我现在需要离开家
才能及时赶到
机场赶飞机 我现在需要学习考试
如果我想赶上
晚会 如果你想赶上派对 你可能
应该现在离开 电影
及时赶上其他事情,所以我想
采取行动,让我的日程安排满足
其他条件我
想做的其他事情我需要
及时做的其他事情有
我们可以使用的最后期限的细微差别 这种表达
就像恐慌一样哦,我的天哪,我不是
准时完成
就像提交论文 我
不会准时完成 意味着
在截止日期之前
而准时意味着
在预定的时间完成一个动作或完成某事 下一个
问题 下一个问题是 从想要
功能嗨妈妈朋友嘿艾丽西娅
你刚刚让我的一天是什么意思我听到了
这句话但我不完全理解
是的所以你让我的一天是一个非常
积极的短语你可以想象这是因为
你让我的一天
很开心 更好,但我们并没有说得更好,
所以当有人给我们
好消息时
我们会使用它 我们要
休息的那一天,
你刚刚度过了我的一天,
那些是某人
真的很开心并想要
表达对方在那一刻改善了他们的一天的情况
,很好的表达下一个
问题下一个问题来自
gearson Si lva 嗨
,阴影和阴影有什么区别哦,太好了,
这是一个很好的问题,这两个
词都可以用来指
比周围环境更暗的地方,
因为有一个物体
挡住了光线,我们可以说有
阴影 there or there's a shadow
over there 在那个句子中它们的
用法相同,但是阴影
仅指黑暗的形状,因此
我们使用 cast 动词 cast with
the shadow I cast a shadow when I stand
in the Sun for 例如,阴影
作为名词指代或具有某种遮蔽物的细微差别,
因此由
其他物体提供的遮蔽物遮蔽了光线,
遮蔽了太阳,所以我们会说
站在阴凉处,因为遮蔽物具有
遮蔽物的细微差别,我们不会 说站在
阴影中阴影并没有
像阴影那样有趣地表现出庇护的细微差别,
尽管阴影
和阴影也都用作
动词来表示阴影,某些东西需要
紧随其后 ly to shadow
someone at work 意思是跟随工作中的人并
尝试理解他们的工作,例如,
阴影用作动词,表示
创造避光的地方,例如
遮蔽我们免受阳光遮蔽的树冠
也有一些有趣的用途,你可能会
听到俚语 to throw shade
throwing shade 是一个非常有趣的
俚语表达,我们使用它的意思是表达
不尊重或
表达
对某事的蔑视,当你说话时,
通常在大多数情况下,当你想
谈论一个黑暗的酷 区域我们应该
说阴影 当你
只想谈论
黑暗物体使用阴影的黑暗区域时,我们应该说阴影站在阴影中 下一个
问题来自 Celso Moreno 你
把你的名字全部大写背靠背写
是什么意思有时我在
棒球中听到 游戏 你知道吗 是的 我确实知道
背靠背的表达意思是一个
接一个 所以我们有两件事
有时更背靠背 你
可以把它放在一条线上 它的意思
例如在棒球比赛中,就像一个接一个的本垒打
我们可以说两个
本垒打接连发生 两个或更多的
事情连续快速发生 它
在体育运动中被广泛使用 下一个问题
实际上来自丹尼的两个问题 嗨
丹尼丹尼的第一个问题是你
谈到了点燃 作为俚语是的,我
在第 2 集中谈到了点燃所以第 1 集第 2 集
我问过 Alisha,你能
谈谈动词 light 并使用它一个
主动和被动的肯定光
意味着生火所以点燃火来
点燃蜡烛 这个动词的主动和
被动语态的一些例子 那
我们今晚为什么不点一些蜡烛吃晚餐
餐厅里所有的蜡烛都在我们野营旅行时
点燃 我的邻居点燃了火,我们给我带来了
汉堡包 点燃了火
我们离开时的露营地 我
正要生火但我睡着了 所以
点燃意味着生火 他点燃了
房子着火 我们可以说点燃 bla
bla
bla 着火 所以有几个不同的
例子 g 动词 light 的
主动和被动过去式
将来时也是如此,所以我希望这
会有所帮助 Danny 的第二个问题
你能谈谈骑车吗?
很多不同的用途 你用这个
例子带某人去兜风 意思
是和别人一起开车去
兜风 做某事
只是为了好玩 只是为了好玩 我
想搭车去我想去的地方
这个周末骑车去山上
或骑车去海滩,但
搭车意味着邀请
某人和你一起开车去某个地方,
这是使用搭车的一种方式你
也可以说给我搭车行吗 给
我搭车 所以这是一个请求表达 我
没有车 我的朋友有车 我
想让我的朋友开车带我
去一个地方 我可以说 你能送我
去电影院吗 送
我一程去湖边 给我一程是
一个请求 所以给我 坐你的车,
所以
如果你想看到所有的车,
或者你想看到更多的车,我
建议你查一下字典,
有很多,我不能
全都说 这段视频,所以请查字典
晚安,我们有时会说
晚安晚安,这样该死的好
声音就会被丢弃我们已经删除了那个好声音,我们说
晚安晚安晚安,这
就是你所说的
下一个问题好的下一个问题来自
femme femme BAM 你是什么? re too
good to be true 意思是好还是不好
也许你在一首著名的歌曲中听过这
句话
说这个
表情是你太棒了 你
太棒了 我不敢相信你是真实的
所以换句话说一定是
有问题你一定有问题
你不可能是真实的
因为你太棒了你太棒了
所以你太好了以至于不能成为真实 就像
哇,我对你感到惊讶,所以这是一个很好的
表达方式,但是如果在更
罕见的情况下有人说
这个人太好了,难以置信,
就像审查工作申请一样
,例如这个女孩,她太好了,
难以置信 如果这样说,
可能那个人有什么可疑之处
,这似乎不对
,这里有太多好的信息
,这个人肯定有问题,
这取决于语调,
它可以描绘出非常积极的
意思或非常可疑的意思 在
大多数情况下意味着这是一个积极的需求,
所以如果你在一首歌中听到这个,
例如,它可能是一种非常积极
的浪漫微妙的短语,
非常感谢那个问题电影
下一个下一个问题来自 奥地利
少年对不起,我希望我说对了
Alisha
当我们到达行尾时我们如何分隔文本中的单词
你的文本格式化软件应该
为你这样做你使用 word 单词
应该为你这样做如果你只使用
文本或注释
应该有一个自动换行功能我
不知道像谷歌这样的核弹,如果这
对
你的第二个问题没有帮助,尽管
生活和生活或生活之间的发音有什么区别,
例如我的生活
很好,两个 我住在一个大城市,
所以 life 和拼写 Li ve 的词,
就像你的例子一样 I live in a big city
有不同的发音
I 的元音发音
在生活中是不同的,这是一个非常开放的声音,
就像 life life in 第二个词
live I 发音有点高 Lily
它很像在你的鼻子里 live
那是第一个声音有点
不同所以 lai lai lai lai 那是
我的声音不同但
辅音也不同 F
一世 n life 所以只有空气
从我的嘴里出来
用我的
声带发出声音 所以生活 没有
声带 活声带使用 但是
要小心 live Live 也可以
发音为 live 所以 V 音
例如现场表演,因此您
需要注意句子的语法
以了解它是现场还是
现场,因此生活和现场的
发音非常不同
Rabia
Arshad Rabia or ferrous iron bear
can 和 may 之间
有
什么区别
如果我在现代美式英语中使用它们,
则现代美式英语使用相同 can 指的是能力可能指的是
许可,请注意 can
和 may 仅以相同的方式用于
在现代美式英语中提出请求
下一个问题来自 Harley hi Harley
hello again
什么是正确的用法 它是我吃
早餐 我吃午餐 我吃晚餐 或者
我早餐 我午餐 我晚餐 我吃饭 啊
好问题 哈雷 我用我
吃午餐 我吃晚餐 我吃早餐
版本 如果你放弃了 你听起来很
豪华豪华 意味着像时尚
精致也有点富有所以我
不是那些东西但是说我是
早餐我午餐我晚餐
听起来你
在大多数情况下对这项活动有很高的评价至少在
我的生活中我没有 没有理由
那样说,所以我总是说我吃
早餐、吃午餐或
吃
晚餐 真的 需要
以那种形式的形式交谈
我不认为下一个问题 下一个
问题来自 feriss ferriss Ghazali
Ferris 气愤地问我很抱歉
Ferris 问嘿 Alicia 我们可以
在文章中使用还没有它的缩写
形式 has not 你可以在物理上
肯定你在一篇文章中使用农夫,但如果
你在写作中使用缩略语,我
认为这会让你听起来不那么
正式,如果你使用扩展形式
你
会 听起来更正式一点更
优雅我觉得这不仅适用
于单词 has not 和 has not 因此
这适用于所有收缩
真的答案是肯定的你可以但
如果你想我不一定推荐它
听起来正式和优雅的感谢
这个问题,尽管 Baris 下一个问题
litt 这个词是什么意思 litt
这个词对我来说是什么意思 litt 实际上是一个
俚语 它在年轻人中很常见,
尤其是在美国 现在,
也许你们中的许多人都知道,我曾经使用过
light
有过去时 lit 用于
谈论例如聚会或
某种社交聚会,通常
非常令人兴奋,或者非常
有趣,或者有点疯狂 solit
用过去时态,你
可以想象,就像火一样,当你
点燃火时,它可能会变得更大,
变得有点疯狂,有点疯狂,
就像有火花一样,然后它就会开始,
所以如果你看到 点燃这个词就像这个
派对被点燃了 这意味着它真的
很疯狂 真的很好 真的很
有趣 你可以根据需要使用它但
请记住,真正的年轻人
使用这个词 我不使用这个词作为
参考但是 再说一次,我不是
第一个问题本周的第一个问题
来自我又开始了嗨,我很诚实,
很多问题认为哪个是正确的
我想要休息或者我想要好好休息
你可以说我想要休息的意思
一般来说,只是你不想做
任何事情来放松
语法 虽然我想
休息是正确的或者我想休息这
两个都是正确的
但是在美式英语中我们通常不会
说我想休息
更常见的是说我想
休息我想休息 休息一下,或者让
我们休息一下,或者我们可以休息
一下
吗 你
走了 加布里埃拉你好
加布里埃拉你好丽莎
在快速演讲中习惯和习惯之间有什么
区别发音的区别
是的,基本上当我们说得
很快或者我想即使不是很快我们也
倾向于发音习惯于
语法不 改变我 t 只是
发音的变化,因为
很难说你
只是很快我习惯了我习惯了
很难说所以我们只是
说习惯了而不是我以前用
智能手机他用来踢足球我们
每天做饭
我习惯使用的这些句子中的每一个 -
我认为实际上在大多数情况下,我们
可能会说习惯而不是习惯
,因为很难再说
一遍这不应该真的导致任何
沟通问题,习惯和
习惯 相同的意思只是
发音不同
如果我是正确的,你应该总是使用
这是一个语法点它
指的是虚拟语气虚拟
语气的解释虚拟语气
有点超出范围对于
这个视频来说有点多 eo 但我们将始终使用 if I
were when the subject there is I in the
condition if I were 我们总是使用 work
你会听到母语人士说 if I
was if I was 如果你想非常
严格和非常挑剔的话
实际上是 正确的,但如果
你使用是,如果你犯了一个错误,
你仍然会被理解,但是
是的,这与英语中的虚拟语气有关
你
更喜欢用哪个词作为美国 美国 美国
美国 美国 美国 还是我
刚搬到日本时才开始用美国来指代
我的国家的州,因为
我周围的人用美国这个词
来表示我的国家 指国家,但我
想之前我说美国我
用美国人们会说你
来自美国为什么我用美国因为
它很短很容易说美国我
不想说美国
美利坚合众国它 对我来说听起来很长谢谢
这个问题很棒的工作这是一个奖励
