hi everybody welcome back to ask alicia
the weekly series where you ask me
questions and i answer them
maybe okay let's get to your first
question
this week first question this week comes
from
manjira hi manjira manjira says hi
alicia your lessons are very useful
i have a question about ever and never
i'm a bit confused about using them
for example i never seen and i
ever seen i'm unable to understand
properly
okay yeah let's review this point so
first of all
never means not ever you can think of it
as like the negative of ever so
we cannot use ever alone to talk about
life experience
we can however use never alone to talk
about life experience
for example if you want to talk about
the mona lisa
you could say i have never seen the mona
lisa
you cannot say however i have ever seen
the mona lisa we cannot do that we can
say
i have seen the mona lisa so please keep
in mind when we use
never and ever we typically put it
together
with present perfect expression so i
have never
for example i have never seen the mona
lisa or i have seen the mona lisa
so we cannot use ever alone in cases
where we use
ever plus the verb we use it in
questions and we use it in full sentence
responses to things
for example have you ever seen the mona
lisa
or the mona lisa is the most famous
painting
i have ever seen in situations like
these we can use
have ever followed by the verb but we
cannot use
ever like i have ever seen we cannot use
that to express
life experience life experience that we
have we can use
i have never seen though so i hope that
this helps you this is a very
very quick introduction to these points
i would recommend
if you want to review this please take a
look at this video on the channel i made
a lesson about using
never and ever and i hope that it can
answer your questions so please have a
look at that
thanks very much for this question all
right let's move on to your next
question next question
comes from hiro hi hiro hiro says hi
alicia
i take many pictures especially portrait
and nature pictures so
i have a question what's the difference
between photograph
and photography how should i use these
words great question yeah
photograph first of all photograph is a
countable noun so we can
count photographs images pictures we can
say one photograph
two photographs three photographs a
photograph
is the individual image photography then
refers to the entire activity the
process of
taking pictures editing pictures all of
those things together as a hobby or as
an activity
that is called photography so you can
say i'm interested in
photography and i take lots of
photographs
so keep in mind photography is the
activity
photograph is the result here so
one point that i want to make though is
that we don't really use the word
photograph so much in everyday
conversation unless we're talking
to somebody who shares our hobby or
they're also
in that field typically instead we say
picture instead of photograph so instead
of i like taking photographs you could
say
i like taking pictures i would not use
image so much
image is a much more general word we use
image to talk about like things that you
see
on the internet you know so it can be a
picture but maybe it's a painting
so an image of a painting image is a
more general word
photograph refers specifically to
something that's captured by a camera
but we use picture as well to talk about
that more commonly
in everyday conversation so in some
photography
activity photograph one picture i hope
that this helps you
thanks very much for the question okay
let's move on to your next question
next question comes from uvani amanda hi
uvani
ivani says hi alicia if you can would
you please explain to me
how we can use take out take off
take over and overtake with examples
sure
okay let's begin with take out to take
out to take
something out means to remove something
from an
indoor location and take it to an
outdoor location so a very common use of
this
is take out the garbage please take out
the garbage
so to take something out of one location
and put it outside that location to take
something out
you might also hear take out used to
mean like
uh to kill someone or like to injure
someone
especially in like action movies or
maybe in like sports
like oh no that soccer player took out
our goalie
so that means that soccer player injured
our goalie so the person in charge of
keeping the goal
or we need to take out this person in an
action movie might mean
we need to kill this person or we need
to remove this person from the situation
so that's probably a less common one in
everyday everyday english we use take
out to mean remove from a building
usually
your next one was take off to take off
has a couple different meanings as well
to take off can mean remove like with
clothing like i need to take off my
sweater
or please take off your shoes before you
come in the house so to take off
means to remove something as with
clothing or maybe it's just covering
something
else like take the blanket off the
computer
so it means to remove something usually
clothes or other covering
takeoff can also be used to talk about
aircraft so when a plane
goes from land to flying this process is
called
take off as a noun but when we want to
describe it using a verb we can say
the plane is going to take off to take
off means to
leave the ground as with a plane so take
off has these
two meanings so the next item on your
list was take over
to take over means to gain control of
something
so you might hear this in stories you
might also hear this in business like
company a
took over company b in past tense that
means company a
gained control of company b to take over
something or maybe my work is taking
over my life
means my work is gaining control of my
life
so to take over means to gain control
finally
the expression overtake so overtake
means to
pass someone or something else
especially in like a competition
or in a race so for example uh
i was overtaken in the race by another
runner so that means somebody else
passed me in a race so that was a
passive form
or you could use something like uh we
need to overtake the competition next
year so that means we need to pass
the competition in the year ahead so to
overtake is
not quite a phrasal verb to overtake is
one word
on its own but it does use take in there
yes so i hope that this helps you thanks
very much for the question

大家好,欢迎回来问
艾丽西亚每周系列你问我
问题,我回答他们
也许好吧让我们来回答你
本周的第一个问题本周第一个问题来自
manjira你好manjira manjira说你好艾丽西亚
你的课程非常有用
我有一个 关于永远和永远的问题
我对使用它们感到有点困惑
,例如我从未见过,我
从未见过我无法正确理解
,
好吧,是的,让我们回顾一下这一点,所以
首先
永远不要意味着你永远不会认为它
是 就像ever的否定词,所以
我们不能用everalone来谈论
人生经历
,但是我们可以用never alone来
谈论人生经历
例如,如果你想
谈论蒙娜丽莎,
你可以说我从未见过蒙娜丽莎,
你不能 说但是我
见过蒙娜丽莎,我们不能这样做,我们可以
说
我见过蒙娜丽莎,所以请
记住,当我们使用
never 时,我们通常将它
与现在的完美表达放在一起 ion 所以我
从来没有
,例如,我从未见过蒙娜丽莎,
或者我见过蒙娜丽莎,
所以我们不能单独使用 ever
在我们使用
ever 的情况下加上我们在问题中使用的动词,
并且我们在完整的句子回答中使用它
例如,你见过蒙娜丽莎吗
?蒙娜丽莎是
我见过的最著名
的画作 表达
我们
拥有的生活经验我们可以使用的生活经验
我从未见过所以我希望
这对你有帮助这是
对这些要点的非常快速的介绍
如果你想查看这个我建议你
看看这个视频 在频道上,
我上了一堂关于使用
never 和 ever 的课程,我希望它可以
回答你的问题,所以
请看一下,
非常感谢这个问题,
好吧,让我们继续你的下一个
问题,下一个问题
来自 m hiro hi hiro hiro 说你好
alicia
我拍了很多照片,尤其是肖像
和自然照片所以
我有一个问题
照片
和摄影有什么区别我应该如何使用这些
词很好的问题是
照片首先照片是
可数名词所以我们可以
计数照片图像图片我们可以
说一张照片
两张照片三张照片
照片
是个人图像摄影然后
是指整个活动拍照的
过程
编辑照片所有
这些东西一起作为一种爱好或
称为摄影的活动所以 你可以
说我对摄影很感兴趣
而且我拍了很多
照片
所以请记住摄影是
活动
照片是这里的结果
所以我想说的一点
是我们并没有真正使用
照片这个词 在日常
对话中,除非我们与
与我们有共同爱好的人交谈,或者
他们
也在该领域,通常是 ins 我们说
图片而不是照片,所以
我喜欢拍照而不是我喜欢拍照,你可以
说
我喜欢拍照,我不会使用
太多
图像,图像是一个更通用的词,我们使用
图像来谈论
你在互联网上看到的东西 知道所以它可以是一张
照片,但也许它是一幅画,
所以一幅画的图像是一个
更笼统的词
照片专门指的是
由相机捕捉到的东西,
但我们也使用图片来谈论
它
在日常对话中更常见所以 在一些
摄影
活动中拍摄一张照片我
希望这对你有帮助
非常感谢你的问题好的
让我们继续你的下一个问题
下一个问题来自 uvani amanda hi
uvani
ivani 说你好 alicia 如果可以的
话请你向我解释
一下我们是如何 can use take out
take over and overtake with examples
sure
OK let's begin with take out to take
out to take
something out 表示从 indo 中移除某些东西
或位置并将其带到
室外位置,因此非常常见的用法
是取出垃圾 请
取出垃圾,
以便从一个位置取出一些东西
并将其放在该位置之外以取出
一些东西
您可能还会听到取出 过去的
意思是像
呃杀死某人或喜欢伤害
某人,
特别是在类似的动作电影或
类似的运动中,
比如哦,不,那个足球运动员带走了
我们的
守门员,这意味着足球运动员伤害
了我们的守门员,所以负责
保持 目标,
或者我们需要在动作片中带走这个人,这
可能意味着
我们需要杀死这个人,或者我们需要
将这个人从情境中移除,
所以这在日常英语中可能不太常见,
我们用 take
out 来表示移除
通常
你的下一个要起飞的建筑物起飞
有几个不同的含义
以及起飞可能意味着像
衣服一样移除我需要脱掉我的
毛衣
或者请脱掉你 r shoes before you
come in the house so to take off
意思是脱掉一些东西,比如
衣服,或者它只是盖住
其他
东西,比如把毯子从电脑上拿下来,
所以这意味着脱掉一些东西,通常是
衣服或其他覆盖物,
也可以用来 谈论
飞机,所以当飞机
从陆地起飞时,这个过程被
称为
起飞作为名词,但是当我们想
用动词来描述它时,我们可以
说飞机将要起飞
起飞意味着
离开地面 with a plane so take
off 有这
两个含义,所以你清单上的下一个项目
是 takeover
to takeover 意味着获得对某物的控制权,
所以你可能会在故事中听到这一点,你
也可能在诸如公司 a 接管公司 b 之类的业务中听到这一点
在过去式中,这
意味着a公司
获得了b公司的控制权来接管
某事,或者我的工作正在
接管我的生活,这
意味着我的工作正在接管我的生活,
因此接管意味着最终获得了控制权
t 他的表达 overtake so overtake
意思是
超越某人或某事,
尤其是在比赛
或比赛中,例如,呃,
我在比赛中被另一名
跑步者超越,这意味着其他人
在比赛中超过了我,这是一种
被动形式
或者你可以使用 uh we
need to over the Competition 明年
,这意味着我们需要
在未来一年通过比赛,所以
overtake
不是一个短语动词,overtake 是
一个词
,但它确实使用 take 在那里,
是的,所以我希望这对你有帮助
非常感谢这个问题
