hi everybody welcome back to ask alicia

the weekly series where you

ask me questions and i answer them maybe

first question this week comes from

manuel carlos hi manuel manuel says hi

there

when it comes to inversions in formal

english to give

emphasis i have two questions first i

talked to an american english native

speaker about it and was told these

structures are no longer used they were

used back in the 1920s

what do you think second in one of my

books it says that we can also use

once in a while and very often at the

beginning of the sentences for emphasis

the point is that these two expressions

are not listed in other books or video

classes

what are your thoughts some examples

very often does she come here

very often do they arrive late once in a

while does he wash his car

once in a while do i drink alcohol thank

you very much

interesting question inversion is still

used today though as you’ve said it’s

used more in like formal situations

or it’s used in like poetic kinds of

writing

so situations where having control

over the rhythm and the feel of a

sentence is really strongly desired

so inversion it is still used today

but a key point and this is in regard to

the second

part of your question a key point though

is

to note that when we when we make

sentences that use this inversion

pattern

we’re using negative adverbs and

negative adverbial phrases

at the beginning so perhaps this is what

you’ve seen in other textbooks and in

other videos

and this is what makes me think that

your examples or the sentences that you

provided are not

so natural this is because very often

and once in a while are not negative

adverbial expressions

so to make them negative you could say

not very often like not very often does

she

wash her car or whatever so but that’s

not really something that i feel is so

natural we wouldn’t really say that the

other example that you provided once in

a while

we could make that one negative by

adding only

like only once in a while do i drink

alcohol

so that’s something that i feel might

actually be said

only once in a while do i that sounds

like a more natural pattern

i wouldn’t i don’t really feel that the

not very often pattern

would so often be used as like in in

kind of like these

inversion type sentences so to answer

your question

uh yes they are still used in some in

certain situations

yes perhaps not so much in everyday

conversation at least not in american

english you

maybe could hear it a little bit more in

british english i suppose

um and also the focus generally is on

using

negative adverbs and negative adverbial

phrases at the beginning of those

so i hope that this helps you thanks

very much for this interesting question

okay let’s move on to your next question

next question

comes from nuria garayeva hello nuria

maria says hello alicia can you explain

the difference

between which and that sure i have

talked about this topic many times but

not very recently

so let’s refresh ourselves the

short answer is that the difference

between that and

which is that that is used for

restrictive clauses and which is used

for

non-restrictive clauses so what’s a

restrictive clause what’s a

non-restrictive clause

a restrictive clause is a clause in a

sentence

that gives us essential information

about a noun we

need that information about the noun in

order to understand the noun completely

a non-restrictive clause is a clause in

a sentence

that gives us extra or like bonus

information about the noun

if we don’t have that clause we can

still understand the noun

so there may be different words that are

used for restrictive or non-restrictive

like descriptive or non-descriptive

clauses but they’re talking about the

same things

so let’s take a look at an example of a

restrictive clause and a non-restrictive

clause

the phone that i bought at the apple

store works perfectly

this phone which i bought at the apple

store works

perfectly okay so these two sentences

they have

essentially the same information so why

am i

saying one is a restrictive clause and

why is one a non-restrictive clause

so in this case we understand easily i’m

talking about this phone

yes like we know in both cases it’s this

phone

but where restrictive clauses become

important

is in cases where for example we have

many phones let’s imagine the speaker

has three phones

and the speaker needs to differentiate

the speaker needs to communicate

which phone he or she is talking about

in the conversation

we can use restrictive clauses to do

that so for example

the phone that i got at the apple store

works perfectly

the phone that i bought from a

secondhand shop is really slow

the phone that i receive from my company

is a little old

so in those sentences we’re using that

because we’re giving some specific

identifying information about each phone

so in a case like that where we’re

talking about three different

objects and we need to make the

differences very clear we would use a

restrictive clause

in cases where it’s not so important

like when we clearly know i mean this

phone right here

we can use which and a non-restrictive

clause to talk about the phone

so this is the basic difference between

that

and which of course native speakers

don’t always get this correct

unfortunately

so you may see people using the two

interchangeably

but that’s actually one very common way

of differentiating the two so if you

want to know more about this topic i

made a video about this

please check out the relative clauses

which or that

video on the english class 101 youtube

channel for some more examples

and for some more explanation i hope

that that helps you thanks for the

question

okay let’s go to your next question next

question comes from

nicole hi nicole nicole says let me know

whether you can use

if i were you i will sure

you cannot use this pattern if you want

to begin

your if conditional statement with if i

were you

you need to use something in your main

clause that reflects an

unreal or an untrue situation this is

because

if i were you is unreal it’s not true

i am not you that’s not real so our main

clause needs to match our

if clause our main clause needs to

include would

or wouldn’t to match the were in

the if clause so if i were you i would

or if i were you

i wouldn’t for example if i were you i

would take a vacation

or if i were you i wouldn’t quit my job

so you cannot use

will in place of will please use would

or

wouldn’t i hope that that helps you

thanks for the question

okay let’s go to your next question next

question

comes from pandy hi pandy pandy says

authorization authentication what is the

difference

okay sure both are nouns uh

authorization

is the act of allowing someone to do

something authentication is the process

of proving that something or someone is

true

or real some examples i need management

authorization to enter the secret room

in the building

we finally got authorization to move

forward with a new product

the thief’s paperwork didn’t pass

authentication

unknown login detected user

authentication required

so the last example sentence there about

user authentication

is one that you might see online like if

someone tries to access your account or

maybe if you try to access your email

your social media account from like a

different place or something strange

happens with your account

you might be requested to do user

authentication which means proving that

you

are you which we usually do through like

checking an email address or phone

number or something similar

so authentication refers to checking to

see if something is true

authorization refers to the act or the

process of allowing

someone to do something so i hope that

that helps you

thanks very much for the question okay

on to our next question

next question comes from silas

fast hi silas silas says hi alicia how’s

it going

good uh my question is about the

structure

2b 2 in the following sentences

the queen is to visit canada you are to

wear

formal clothing to the white house

dinner you are not to leave the room

could you explain how it works yeah nice

question we use this

to be plus the infinitive form of a verb

when we’re talking about like

official rules or we’re talking about

like an official

schedule so this is not something that

we use so much in everyday conversation

in american english

it’s usually in a formal situation like

when we’re taking a test

or we’re talking about an official

schedule or we’re talking about official

rules like in an examination situation

or maybe a

like a big organization when we want to

make a negative rule too

we place not before the verb

so some more examples of this students

are not

to exit the room until the exam has

finished

guests are to leave their shoes at the

door

employees are to check in when they

begin work

so i hope that this helps you this

structure is for formal or official

rules and schedules

thanks very much for the question okay

thanks very much for watching this

week’s episode of ask alicia and i will

see you again

next week bye bye

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 aisha abdullah hi

aisha

aisha says hi alicia can you please talk

about

how and where to use apostrophes

which of these options is correct okay

so

take a look at the three examples that

are on this screen

and note the places where the

apostrophes are

in each of these so i’ll talk about this

the sentence is the two buildings doors

and windows okay sure so we can use

apostrophes to show possession

and to show the reduced forms of words

like it’s

or can’t and so on so those are the two

ways that we use apostrophes

in this explanation i’m going to focus

on using apostrophes

for possessives so actually to address

your question about which example

sentence is correct none of those

examples

are correct the correct use of an

apostrophe in this sentence would be

just an apostrophe after the s

in buildings so the two buildings

apostrophe doors and windows that’s the

only place that we need an apostrophe

this is because the doors and windows in

the sentence kind of

belong to the two buildings so the two

buildings are the subject

so we don’t need to use like an

apostrophe we don’t need to use some

kind of

a possessive marker after doors and

windows

because we’re not showing that the doors

or the windows are like the owners of

something

actually here the buildings are like the

owners so

we mark the possession with an

apostrophe to go a little bit deeper

into why this is

when we have a word that ends in s

we use an apostrophe but we do not add

another

s to the word please note though we do

not

ever use apostrophes to make nouns

plural

as a general guide then when you are

using a noun that

ends in an s simply add an apostrophe

after the s to show possession if the

noun does not end in an s

add apostrophe s to show possession so

let’s look at a couple examples

of nouns that end in s in the singular

and in the plural form

for example the dress’s color that’s

singular

and the dress’s colors plural

the car’s lights so you can see

that even though the singular form and

the plural form

have the same pronunciation by that i

mean like the dress’s color

and the dress’s colors we understand

that

one is plural because the following word

is plural so in the first example

sentence there

the dresses color so the dress ends in

s yes and we show possession with an

apostrophe after the s

and then a singular color so that shows

us it’s one color

one dress in the second example though

the dresses

colors so dresses is plural

in speech they sound the same but plural

dresses is followed by an apostrophe to

show possession

and then we follow that with colors in

the plural also

so this shows us that it’s not just one

dress and we can hear that

also in speech so it shows us it’s not

just one dress it’s two dresses or more

and we know that because more than one

color is described there

so we can generally guess these sorts of

things from context

but again this is for nouns that end in

s whether they’re plural or singular

let’s compare this then to nouns that do

not end in s

when a noun does not end in s we simply

add apostrophe s to show possession

some examples the children’s books

the team’s work our hotel’s staff

so these all end in apostrophe s because

the noun itself does not end in s so

this is the general rule

for using apostrophes to show possession

so please do remember we do not use

apostrophes

to show plural forms of words 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 amar ismail

hello amar

amar says hey alicia what does beat the

wrap mean

and how can i use it okay cool so to

beat the rap

means to escape from punishment and it’s

usually

punishment that you deserve so it’s like

you did something wrong

you should be punished but you escape

somehow

so this is an interesting expression i

found some

history some information about this

expression and this

rap means like legal punishment or like

the punishment that is official

for you and rap this meaning of rap or

this use of rap

comes from or it can come from the

expression to wrap someone’s knuckles

so the knuckles are this part of your

hand

uh so this part of your finger really

the places where like your

fingers can bend those are called your

knuckles so a

common punishment a long time ago for

school children

was to wrap kids knuckles

as a punishment for bad behavior so to

wrap something

means to hit or like strike in a strong

way like quickly

sharply so this is the verb form of

rap but because of that to rap became

associated with

punishment therefore to beat the rap

means to like conquer to overcome some

kind of punishment

so to beat the rap means to get away

with something in other words or to find

a way

to escape the punishment that’s due to

you so in an example sentence you could

say something like

i came home late and my mom was really

mad but i beat the rap by telling her

that i had to take a friend home

or he made a huge mistake at work but he

beat the rap by blaming it on computer

problems

so to beat the wrap means like to escape

somehow from punishment that you are

probably supposed to receive you’re

probably supposed to get that

you might also hear a similar expression

which is take

the rap take the rap so again rap refers

to punishment

but to take the wrap means to take the

punishment

that should be for somebody else so you

didn’t do anything wrong somebody else

did but you decide to like take their

punishment instead

so you might hear that expression used

to so another point to mention is that

this is not

such a common phrase these days you

might hear

like take the hit to mean take someone

else’s punishment

but we don’t really use this expression

so much in everyday speech at least in

american english these days but if you

encounter this in like a movie or in a

book maybe

that’s what it means so i hope that this

is helpful for you thanks very much for

the question

okay let’s move on to your next question

next question

is from hector hi hector hector says hi

alicia

i want to know how to refer to a person

who asks a lot of questions

i think it’s something like inquire or

curious but i’m not sure

for example in a job interview how do i

explain that i consider myself a person

who likes to ask

questions if something is not clear for

me okay yeah i think in this case maybe

the best word would be

inquisitive inquisitive so inquisitive

is an adjective

it means someone who likes to ask a lot

of questions someone who naturally asks

lots of questions about things

curious is similar yes curious sounds

like you’re naturally interested in

learning things like maybe you want to

look and see

lots of different things but it doesn’t

only mean

like wanting to ask questions

inquisitive

has this feeling of like really asking

questions and trying to learn

things so my kind of impression of an

inquisitive person

is generally positive maybe someone

who’s kind of smart

and interested in learning things it’s

pretty good

but if you ask a lot of questions

especially personal questions

you can be perceived as nosy so

nosy is another adjective which refers

to someone who likes to ask questions

yes

but they’re generally too personal it’s

too much it’s like someone who likes to

gossip about other people’s lives

so there’s kind of a fine line like a

close they’re a bit close inquisitive

and nosy so inquisitive is generally a

good

thing but you don’t want to be nosy so

in this case i would say inquisitive

however as you mentioned in your example

if you want to talk about liking to ask

lots of questions

in order to make something clear that is

not how we would use

inquisitive we use inquisitive to talk

about somebody who

naturally wants to learn about things

and asks

questions like just because they want to

learn

not because something is unclear like

it has the feeling of something that a

person does from like

internal motivation they just want to

know things

they’re not trying to like fix a mistake

or try to understand something that is

difficult for them at work so we

wouldn’t really use

inquisitive in that case instead we

would probably use an expression exactly

like the one that you presented

you would say something like i’m the

kind of person that prefers to ask lots

of questions

if something is not clear to me so

that’s a very natural response

if you want to express that you are

inquisitive like you naturally like to

ask questions you can say that too

though i’m an inquisitive person

so 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 alexander hi alexander

alexander says hi alicia my name is

alexander or alex and i’m from brazil

i was studying collocations and

yesterday when i was studying about

coffee i found three words that i have

never seen before

one percolated two lukewarm and three

tepid i would like to know if these

words are common in everyday speech

i’ve been in dublin for one year and

i’ve not heard them so far

thanks okay great interesting question

first let’s talk about the word

collocation so everybody can understand

what this means

a collocation is a word that is commonly

used with another word

so for example with this word coffee a

common collocation of coffee

is cup so cup and coffee often go

together because of the expression

coffee cup for example

so we can also use this as a verb to

collocate so when we want to use it as a

verb we could say

the word cup collocates with coffee

so that refers to two words or maybe

more

that are often used together studying

collocations can be really helpful

because you can see

which words are commonly used together

and it can help you to make more natural

word choices

so now that we know what collocations

are let’s take a look at these examples

the first word was

percolated in this case you have it in

the past tense verb form

so two percolate means to cause

a liquid to pass through another

substance that is not

a liquid to pass through a permeable

substance

so a permeable substance is a substance

it’s not solid

so we can pass liquid through it or like

sunlight can come through a window a

window can be permeable

so things can pass through this

substance

so like soil like dirt is a permeable

substance or coffee grounds are a

permeable

thing so permeable substances

are kind of the key point for this word

liquid passes through those

so percolate on the other hand is

actually like a very scientific word

so we don’t use it so much in everyday

speech to talk about making coffee

when we want to talk about coffee we say

i’m going to make coffee we don’t

generally say

i’m going to percolate water through the

coffee grounds it sounds very

scientific and very stiff and we don’t

generally say this

but you might encounter it if you are

reading some information

about like expensive coffee beans or if

you are learning about

a very like expensive coffee shop and

they want to share

information like the detailed process of

how they make their coffee

you might see it in that way but

generally percolate is

not so common in everyday speech so i

hope that answers that one

the second though uh and the third for

that matter were

lukewarm and tepid lukewarm and tepid

mean the same thing

so they both mean just sort of warm like

it’s kind of like room temperature or a

little bit cooler

than body temperature so lukewarm and

tepid are both used to refer to the

temperature

of coffee so most people want coffee

hot or cold lukewarm coffee is generally

not a good thing so we could say uh i

hate drinking lukewarm coffee

or this coffee is tepid so

that means that it’s not at a good

temperature it’s like this room

temperature coffee

so lukewarm and tepid are more commonly

used in speech than percolate for me

personally i tend to use lukewarm a lot

more than tepid but other people might

prefer to use tepid more

those two words are fairly commonly used

percolate is not as commonly used but

you might see it from time to time

so i hope that this helps you and good

luck with your continued studies of

collocations

okay let’s move on to our next question

next question for this week

comes from sanju hi again sanju

sanju says hi alicia how are you i’ve

been watching your videos for a long

time

my question is what is the difference

between no longer

and any longer okay nice question the

meaning of these expressions is the same

it’s totally the same we use it to refer

to something that

was true up until this point and into

the future

will not be true so the difference is

actually just in

how we make the sentence there are a

couple of changes that we need to think

about

in the structure of our sentences when

we use these so let’s take a look at two

example sentences

first we will no longer offer free lunch

for staff

we will not offer free lunch for staff

any longer

okay so in the first example sentence

you can see that

no longer comes before the verb in this

case the verb is offer

so when we want to use no longer we

typically place it before the verb in

the sentence

you may hear no longer coming at the end

of a sentence especially

in short sentences but that kind of

sounds old-fashioned so

these days we tend to use it in front of

the verb so

we will no longer offer free lunch for

staff

on the other hand when we use any longer

we need to put it at the end of the

sentence

and we put a negative we need to put not

before the verb earlier in the sentence

so

we will not offer free lunch for staff

any longer

so these are the differences in terms of

the structure

of the sentences that we need to think

about one more like additional point

if you want to use any more follow the

same pattern as any longer they mean the

same thing

so let’s take a look at one more pair of

examples

i can no longer wait or i can wait no

longer

and i can’t wait any longer

so we follow the same pattern here in

the first example which uses no longer

we put that before the verb i can no

longer

wait and i gave the example of no longer

at the end of the sentence too but this

sounds rather old-fashioned and kind of

too polite

the second one however you might notice

instead of using

not wait i’ve made can into can’t so i

can’t wait any longer

this is because it sounds more natural

so the original sentence could be i can

not wait any longer but we can combine

can and not into can’t and that sounds

much more natural so

i can’t wait any longer so they have the

same meanings yes

it’s just a difference in terms of how

you build the sentences with these words

so

thanks very much for an interesting

question and i hope that that helped you

thanks very much

watching this week’s episode of ask

alicia and i will see you again

next week bye bye hi everybody welcome

back to ask alicia the weekly series

where you ask me questions and i answer

them

maybe first question this week comes

from

sadaf yasmin hi sadaf sadaf says hi

alicia i have two questions

first what does ain’t mean and how do

you use it

i’ve seen this word in lyrics like ain’t

nobody who makes me feel this way

my second question what does the phrase

wide awake mean

i read it in the sentence lying here

wide awake

on my own now i couldn’t completely

understand it okay

first let’s talk about ain’t nice

question

ain’t is a really interesting word

because it can mean a lot of things

it can mean is not are not

am not have not and has not it can mean

all of those things and ain’t is also

considered a very casual kind of rough

in some cases

cool word and it really depends on the

person who uses it

so for example in the u.s the images

that we have that are associated with

the word ain’t

are like maybe country western like

musicians or maybe like cowboys

they might use the word ain’t to sound

kind of casual or rough and cool

you might also hear ain’t used in other

music like pop music or rap or r and b

again

the feeling of ain’t is kind of casual

it’s kind of rough it’s like tough maybe

sometimes as well too

so it really depends on the personality

of the person who’s using the word

ain’t is also special because we follow

the word

ain’t with a negative so as in your

example you said

ain’t nobody or another example

might be something like ain’t never done

this

thing so it feels actually very strange

for me to say that because i’m not the

type of person who would use the word

ain’t

but when we use ain’t we follow it with

a negative like ain’t

nobody so in your example ain’t nobody

who makes me feel this

way means there isn’t anybody who makes

me feel this way

so in many cases like with your example

here we

follow ain’t with a negative like ain’t

nobody or ain’t no

or ain’t nothing so this just means

isn’t or

are not whatever follows that but there

might be some cases where you don’t see

a negative after age like i ain’t having

that

or i ain’t buying that so that just

means the negative

i am not buying that or they are not

doing that

so again this really depends on the

person uh this really

depends maybe on the region as well too

so pay attention to the kinds of people

that you see and hear using this word

and maybe you can kind of understand

uh the times at which it might be

appropriate to use it

and whether or not it’s good for you to

use the word to as i mentioned i

personally don’t use this word

but this is how we use it in american

english anyway

regarding your second question about the

expression wide awake

to be wide awake means to be awake but

we use it at a time when we are usually

asleep

so for example maybe at like two in the

morning most people

are asleep usually but if you are wide

awake it’s like you’re awake

and you cannot close your eyes and go to

sleep

so it might be helpful to think of your

eyes like your eyes themselves as being

wide

open like you cannot close your eyes you

are wide

awake so you can’t go to sleep usually

we use this expression at a time

uh when we should be asleep so for

example

i woke up at 2 am i was wide awake for

hours

or when i got up to use the bathroom i

saw my dog was wide awake it was weird

so wide awake is used in this way to

talk about

being awake at kind of a strange time i

hope that this helps you

thanks for the questions okay let’s move

on to your next question

next question comes from rubo hi roubo

rubo says hi alicia what is the

difference between

scrape and scratch ah

good question generally well in many

cases they do have the same meaning

but for scrape we use scrape usually

with

non-living things and we use scrape when

we’re talking about

taking a very heavy or a very sharp

object across a surface we often use

scrape when we’re talking about trying

to remove

something that is difficult to remove

so for example oh no i scraped

my car on the gate or i scraped the

paint off the wall with a knife

so it’s like there’s some kind of heavy

or sharp object

moving across another surface oftentimes

with the intent or with the plan to

remove something

else scratch on the other hand is

something that we use

much more commonly with living things so

with people or with animals

we use scratch usually when we’re

talking about like using a

sharp part of our body like uh nails or

claws or maybe even

teeth we talk about using something

sharp

and dragging that across a surface so

for example i might say like ouch i

scratched my arm

or be careful my cat might scratch you

so scratch is typically used with humans

with living things

and scrape is usually used to talk about

like maybe machines

or other very heavy and sharp objects

being pulled or dragged across a surface

so i hope that this helps you thanks for

the question

okay let’s move on to your next question

next question comes from

saith aldine hi saif saif says hi alicia

can you explain

why we use out and in or up

like when someone says i go up to the

door and i open it

if it were me i would say i go to the

door

and i open it what is the difference

between the two sentences

thanks yes super great question we often

use

up along with bodily motion like

physical motion related verbs

to mean we did that action up until a

point so we went

to that thing or we moved to that thing

and stopped

so verbs that we use this with commonly

are like

walk run open close

go as well so we use up after these

to mark the point at which that action

stopped you might also hear

over used with this so as in your

example

i walked up to the door and opened it or

i went up to the door and opened it

means i moved until the point

of the door and then i opened it so it

shows the point at which

an activity or an action stopped another

situation you might use that

is like talking to someone at your

office like i walked up to my boss

and asked if she had a moment another

example might be

my co-worker ran over to my desk to help

me

so using up and over in these ways

followed by

two marks the point at which some action

stopped so you can use up and over to do

this we don’t really use

down you might hear down used if you’re

talking about

traveling like i’m going down to this

city or i’m going down

to the post office you might hear that

used

but generally when we’re talking about

like these bodily these physical

activities

we’ll use up to mark the stopping point

so i hope that that helps you regarding

up

and over regarding in and out however

these follow the same rules as the

prepositions themselves follow so we

typically use these

when we’re talking about entering or

exiting a building

like or other location so for example he

walked

into the bank or they ran out of the

police station

so we can use these same verbs relating

to

bodily motions relating to movement and

when we use in and out with those

we’re talking about moving from one

location

to outside that location and the

opposite so from moving outside of a

location

to inside of the location so in and out

follows uh the prepositional rules so

i hope that this helps you thanks very

much for the question all right

thanks very much for watching this

week’s episode of ask alicia and i will

see you again

next week bye bye

hi everybody welcome back to ask alicia

the weekly series where you ask me

questions and i answer them

maybe all right let’s get to your first

question

first question this week comes from

fabio hi fabio

fabio says hello alicia i would like to

know the meaning of the expression

every other day can i also say every

other week

every other year every other hour minute

thanks a lot

yep every other day refers to a schedule

of activities

in which you do one thing for one day

and then the next day you take it off

that you don’t do the activity the next

day the following day you do the

activity

then the next day you don’t do the

activity so it’s this one day on

one day off pattern we call this an

every other day

schedule so yes you can replace day in

this expression

with another time period so you could

say every other year

or every other hour every other minute

whatever it just means you do something

for

one unit of time so one year or one hour

or one minute

and then the following period of time

you do not do that thing

so yes you could use this to express

something like every other minute i’m

not sure what activity you need to talk

about and use every other minute to

describe it

but you could do it so every other day

is a very common way

to express this one day on one day off

pattern

i hope that this helps you thanks for

the question okay let’s move on to your

next

question next question comes from

clinton hi clinton

clinton says when i meet a person that

tries to speak a language with me that i

don’t understand

what should i say in english to respond

um

you can say i don’t speak that language

so you could say i don’t speak spanish

or i don’t speak dutch or i don’t speak

chinese you can just say something very

direct like that you don’t have to say

i’m sorry i suppose if you want to you

could but you don’t really have to

apologize in this situation

just be direct i don’t speak that

language you could

follow up this statement by saying

something like

do you speak english or do you speak

your native language

so if the person maybe needs help or if

you’re trying to communicate with that

person

you can try to find a solution try to

find a common language by asking

do you speak english or do you speak

spanish or whatever your native language

is

so again just to respond i don’t speak

that language

i hope that this helps you thanks for

the question okay let’s move on to

your next question next question is from

sanju hi sanju

sanju says hi alicia and team how are

you all

my question what is the difference

between dying

to and vying for and how do we use them

properly

okay we use dying to for things that we

want to do very very much so we’re like

exaggerating we’re making this

desire for something seem much stronger

than it is

we tend to use this in casual situations

for example i’m dying to watch that

movie

or we’ve been dying to go to that new

restaurant

so we’re expressing a strong desire for

something and it’s usually something

that’s kind of casual

kind of light vying for on the other

hand

is used in like competitive situations

so you might hear it in sports you might

hear it

in business you might hear it in

politics when two or more people

are trying to get the same result or the

same outcome we can express

that with vying for different from

dying to which is followed by a verb

vying for is followed by a noun

phrase so vying for noun phrase where

the noun phrase is the desired result

the desired outcome

so some examples of this might be the

two candidates were vying for the

mayor’s position

or all of the children were vying for

the teacher’s attention

so vying for something means actively

engaged in

trying to win something but that’s quite

a long expression so we say

vying for the base verb is to vi to vi

for something so this is the difference

between dying to which expresses a

strong desire for something

and vying for which also expresses a

desire to win something

but we talk about this along with the

desired

results the desired result not the

desired action so i hope that this helps

you thanks very much for the question

okay let’s move on to our next question

next question comes from

animal virg hello animal animal says

hung or hanged

snuck or sneaked yes this is a question

about the past

tense forms of verbs so the first one

hung or hanged

the verb in question here is the verb to

hang to hang so should we use hung or

should we use hanged for past tense

the answer in most cases is you should

use hung

for example he hung a picture on the

wall

or we hung our coats up in the closet

when you’re talking about this action of

putting something on a wall or putting

clothing on a hanger

please use hung the past tense hung

hanged on the other hand has a very

specific use we use

hanged when we’re talking about someone

who has been punished

with death by hanging so hanging is a

very specific type of

death penalty in which a rope is tied

around a person’s neck

and the rope is used to end the person’s

life

when we want to talk about this in past

tense we

use hanged as in the criminal was

hanged or hundreds of years ago many

people were hanged for crimes

so hanged is used in this specific case

in all other cases of the verb hang in

present tense

please use hung to refer to the past

form of the verb

so this is quite a clear distinction in

terms of meaning

please keep it in mind when you’re

speaking and when you’re writing too

regarding your other question about the

past tense form of the verb

sneak there are two forms and there are

two forms that remain today actually

initially originally this is according

to merriam-webster my favorite

dictionary

according to merriam-webster sneaked was

the original past tense

form of this verb but in the late 1800s

or so

snuck began being used so today we still

use both of them actually

snuck and sneaked some examples then

might be like

i snuck into the office late last night

or she sneaked around the neighborhood

so you can use both of them i personally

feel that i like snuck better that could

just be me

but whatever you choose please just be

consistent with it so i hope that this

helps you thanks for the question

okay let’s move on to your next question

next question comes from

anathu shaji hi enough anathu says could

you please explain the differences

between

ever since and since then sure

while they have the same meaning the

structure of the sentence

changes depending on which one you use

so let’s take a look at a couple of

example sentences

i graduated college last year since then

i’ve worked in a tech company and ever

since i graduated college

i’ve worked in a tech company so these

sentences communicate the same idea

the speaker graduated college and since

that point in time

the speaker has worked at a tech company

so we can use both

since then and ever since to describe

that the difference

is that since then tends to follow a

past

tense statement in the first example

sentence it was i graduated college

last year so we have a simple path tense

statement there

since then refers to the point in time

that was described in the previous

sentence so in this case

last year since that point in time i

referred to in the previous sentence

so this is a common position for since

then

ever since however can take a couple

different positions in the sentence

in this example i’ve placed it before

the simple past tense action

ever since i graduated college so we can

place it before the action

you may also see ever since used in the

same position as

since then so for example i graduated

college ever since i’ve worked in a tech

company

though in these cases as you might have

noticed in this example

i’ve removed i’ve omitted the specific

point in time so instead of saying

i graduated college last year ever since

i’ve worked in a tech company

you might hear some people remove that

specific point in time it’s just kind of

the speaker’s preference i suppose but

ever since can take a lot of different

positions we don’t see

since then taking these different

positions so since then again refers to

a specific point in time that

then in since then means that point in

time i just referred to so we have to

have that

we don’t have that then in ever since so

that means we don’t have to refer to a

specific point in time and that’s why it

sounds kind of natural sometimes

not to use this paired together with a

specific point in time in your past

tense statement

you might hear people say ever since

then in which case yes you must include

a point in time in the past but this is

the difference it’s the positioning of

the expression in the sentence and the

relationship of the past tense statement

to the outcome so i hope that this helps

you thanks very much for the question

okay that is everything that i have for

you this week thank you as always for

thanks very much for watching this

week’s episode of ask alicia and i will

see you again

soon bye-bye hi everybody welcome back

to ask alicia the weekly series where

you ask me questions and i answer them

baby okay let’s get to your first

question this week

first question this week comes from

henry laurent

cossaci hello henry henry says i once

heard this conversation in a tv series

hey how much are we short b 18

30 cents my question is is the

expression

how much are we short commonly used in

spoken english to describe this kind of

situation

thanks love from indonesia yes great

question

to be short means to not have enough of

something

this is a very common expression in

american english anyway

and we use this short in many different

grammatical forms

so in a question how much are we short

means how much more

or how many more of this thing do we

need

in statements you might hear i’m three

dollars short

or he’s short by about 150 dollars

or we’re short a few chairs i’ll get

some from the other room

so you’ll notice that there’s a buy

after

short in example two here and he’s short

by

about 150 dollars you can choose to

include that if the number or if the

amount

comes after the word short if the number

comes before the word

short you should not include buy so i’m

three dollars short i’m 150 dollars

short

perfect if the number follows short he’s

short

by about 150 you can include it

but you do not have to as in the third

example sentence

we’re short of few chairs so we do not

have to include buy but we can

we’re short buy a few chairs is also

totally correct

so that’s up to you we can also use

short in this way to mean

not enough as a verb as in the bartender

shorted me on my drink

which means the bartender did not pour

enough

liquid into my drink or i think the

cashier shorted me on my change which

means

i think the cashier did not give me

enough change

so you may also hear this used as a verb

in this way

so yes to answer your question again it

is a very common expression it’s very

useful

and it means to not have enough of

something and to recognize that

and to kind of make a question or a

statement

about what should have been provided or

what is still needed

so i hope that this helps you thanks

very much for the question

let’s move on to your next question next

question comes from

nilo pena flor hello nilo

nilo says hi alicia i’m confused about

the word

compromise it has several meanings can

you please explain it and use it in some

sentences

sure i talked a little bit about the

difference between

compromise and agreement in a recent

episode of ask alicia

so let’s refresh there to begin a

compromise refers to an agreement

that you reach an agreement that you

make after changing your plans a little

bit

so side a and side b have different

ideas about something

they change their ideas slightly and

make an agreement

so that agreement is called a compromise

so it’s not

quite a’s idea not quite bee’s idea but

they kind of work together

to find a solution so that’s a

compromise that’s a noun

we can use this as a verb as well to

compromise

means to make an agreement after

changing both plans a little bit

where there might be some confusion

however is in the

other ways to use compromise as a verb

we use compromise as a verb to mean to

expose

or to reveal something that’s supposed

to be hidden or to reveal something that

is supposed to be secret

so you might have heard it used in this

way in like action films like james bond

movies or like mission impossible

movies you might hear a sentence like

for example

james bond has been compromised which

means

someone realized james bond the spy

was in a location and he was supposed to

be hidden

he was supposed to be like a secret

agent like no one is supposed to know

about him

but someone learns about him someone

exposes

james bond he’s no longer safe so

compromised

in that way refers to something or in

this case someone

being exposed or revealed that was

supposed to be confidential that was

supposed to be secret

we can also use compromise as a verb in

this way

to talk about communication this can be

like phone calls

paperwork official documents and so on

in an example sentence you might hear

something like

the president’s phone call was

compromised which means for example

someone who was not supposed to listen

to the phone call

heard information private information or

maybe

information inside the call was shared

to someone who was not supposed to have

the information

so was compromised or has been

compromised as in my james bond example

sentence you can see that this

verb is commonly used in the passive

form because we don’t

always know the recipient of the

information we don’t always know

the person who exposed something or

revealed something

so there is this meaning of compromise

as i said you will very commonly see

this

in a passive sentence structure when you

talk about making an agreement with

someone you’ll probably see it

more i would say in an active sentence

structure

as a noun then it’s kind of different so

to make a compromise you’ll usually see

it

in something like that to make a

compromise as part of that expression

so i hope that this gives you a good

introduction to the different ways that

we use compromise

especially this special meaning of

revealing or exposing something that is

secret

i hope that this helps you thanks for an

interesting question okay

let’s move on to your next question next

question

comes from kunduzai

i hope i said that right hello kundazai

kundazai says hi alicia

my question is about this statement is

it grammatical to say

i don’t feel like plus verb in the ing

form

how do we use it in the correct way in

what cases can i use it

thanks for your answer yes it is

grammatical to say

i don’t feel like verb in the ing form

totally grammatical totally natural

totally correct

you could say i don’t feel like watching

a movie or

i don’t feel like going out tonight or i

don’t feel like doing that right now

so this is a very casual expression

which means

i am not in the mood for that activity

we usually use it with at this time

or right now or tonight it sounds like

something you don’t want to do

now but maybe you want to do it in the

future like i don’t feel like watching a

movie tonight

totally natural you should know however

that this is a very

casual expression we tend to use this

with very close friends or with family

members so people that we have a very

close relationship with

i would not recommend you use this at

work or in any other professional

situation

because it sounds like you have kind of

a low opinion of that activity like

i don’t feel like doing that right now

so it sounds like it’s kind of emotional

or feeling based decision so don’t use

this in professional situations but yes

you can absolutely use this expression

to talk about something you don’t want

to do

at a specific point in time usually so i

hope that this helps you

thanks for your question okay let’s move

on to our next question

next question comes from ahmed hello

ahmed ahmed said

adele said but it don’t matter why did

she say

don’t with it yeah in terms of standard

like correct

english this is grammatically incorrect

but

many singers like to use this kind of

technically

incorrect grammar to sound kind of cool

or to sound kind of rough

so yes the sentence in like standard

english

should be but it doesn’t matter

but for various reasons including like

sentence rhythm or

song rhythm in this case or also just to

sound kind of cool or rough

a singer or an artist might choose to

use on purpose

in correct grammar in this case but it

don’t matter

so if you want to sing along with the

song great you should use the same words

that adele uses

but if you’re speaking and you want to

express this idea make sure you use the

correct grammar but it doesn’t matter is

actually the correct way to say this so

i hope that this helps you

thanks for the question okay on to our

next question

next question comes from rachel hello

razel rassel

says hi alicia my question is what is

the difference between

race and ethnicity great question

for a very broad answer so for a very

general answer

you can think of race as related to

your biology so this is something that

you

cannot change your race is the stuff

that you’re born with essentially

so common things that we think about

with race relating to race or maybe the

color of a person’s skin

or the shapes of the features of their

face and so on so we

cannot change race ethnicity on the

other hand

is like your cultural identity so what

are like the traditions what are the

shared values

in your community the things that make

your community what it is

so to give an example of the difference

imagine you are

a person from india and you move to the

usa

with your family when you’re a baby so

you could say

my race is indian my ethnicity

is indian american so that’s the

difference here so your race is

something you cannot change

ethnicity may change over time for some

people

so this is a very general answer to this

question this is a very big discussion

as well too but a very interesting one

so thanks very much for this interesting

question

okay that is everything that i have for

a man and a woman are talking

9-7 10 hours every day

well yeah it’s my job

did you get it right i hope you learned

something from this quiz

let us know if you have any questions

see you next time

hi everybody my name is alicia in this

lesson i’m going to talk about some

english greetings and their responses

this lesson has been prepared to present

american english greetings let’s get

started okay

i first want to begin with the most

basic and most

casual greetings that we use i’ve marked

some of these with a star

like you’ll see here that means that

when you respond

to this greeting you can use the same

word you don’t need to worry about a

special response just use the same word

that you heard

the person use when they greet you so

these two the casual

friendly hey and hi are very common we

use these with friends

co-workers colleagues it’s fine to use

at any time of day

i included yo here as well yo is very

casual

probably don’t use this one at work but

you can use this with your friends your

close friends and your family members if

you like

yo so when someone says hey just say

hey or if someone uses hi just respond

with

hi hi sounds a little more stiff than

hey

hey sounds a little more relaxed a

little more friendly

yo is really relaxed super casual

you might hear young people use yo a lot

more than

older people the next expression here is

hello hello you can use hello to greet

people that you meet

face to face that’s fine but we usually

use

hello as the standard phone greeting

it’s used when we pick up the phone

hello and you can say my name is or

hello this

is or hello alicia speaking for example

you can use hello on the phone we tend

to use it mostly

on the phone uh it can be used it is

correct

to greet someone with hello in everyday

life

face to face but it might sound a little

less friendly than

hi or another greeting i’ll talk about

later

so hello is good for the phone usually

i would recommend using hello for the

phone

okay then let’s go to these three

questions we can respond to these three

questions with the same

response let’s read their questions

first first one

how are you how are you you’ll hear

native speakers reduce

this a lot this question is not clearly

pronounced as

how are you but we’ll say

how are you how are you it sounds

much shorter how are you instead of how

are you how are you

how are you the answer good you good

you this is the standard response

another question

how’s it going how’s it going how is

it going it means your life how is it

going how’s it going

how’s it going how’s your life in other

words good

you we can use the same response my life

is going good

everything is good so going means like

happening

how is your life happening how are

things in your life

another one how are you doing how are

you doing very similar to how

are you just a slight variation we added

doing here how are you doing just like

how are you is reduced to how are you we

can make this

how ya

how you doing so you’ll notice i use

this apostrophe mark apostrophe is this

dash here

so it makes a short sound i removed the

g in doing

how you doing how you doing how you

doing sounds more casual

and is much more commonly used and how

are you doing

how are you doing again the answer good

you

so i chose good here because this is the

most common response to these questions

you can say great you can say all right

you can say

not bad all of those are fine if you

give

a negative response for example if you

say

not so good or i feel sick

or i’m really tired or i’m upset you

should be prepared

to explain that it’s like you’re

starting a conversation

this is the standard response the other

person will probably say

good and then they’ll continue to the

next part of their conversation

so these are some listening points how

are you changes to how are you

and how are you doing changes to how you

doing

a little more natural a little more

friendly too

okay let’s continue to some time of day

greetings they are good morning good

afternoon and

good evening these tend to sound a

little bit more

formal than just hay or high or

other greetings i’ll talk about later so

good morning

used in the morning very commonly used

at work when you arrive

at the office and you see your

co-workers we use

good morning to say hello first thing in

the morning

good afternoon is a little more

commonly used in workplaces or

in perhaps in like client or customer

relationship situation

so for example if i’m teaching a lesson

and i see my students in the classroom i

come to the classroom

i say good afternoon to my students

because it’s sort of

there’s a little bit of distance there

good evening as well good evening would

begin

like a formal event we could begin a

formal event with good evening

we could use it at a restaurant for

example again in a customer

client relationship you could use it

with

friends and co-workers i suppose but it

might sound a little

too polite good evening so it’s not

wrong

but it might sound a little bit formal

we would probably with friends

in the evening we would probably just

say hey or hello or how are you

that sounds a little more friendly so to

respond to these

just repeat again i’ve marked this with

a star here just repeat

if someone says good morning to you you

can say good morning

something else we do here is we remove

good so this is to make it a little bit

more casual

and we’ll remove as i did with doing

down here this apostrophe

will drop this g sound and add an

apostrophe

here it’s more difficult to do with

afternoon but

instead of saying good morning like

clearly pronouncing everything

we’ll often drop good and say warnin

so there’s no g sound there mornin i end

on the

n sound or just afternoon or

evening so it sounds much more friendly

and it’s not quite as polite

actually so if someone says this to you

like morning you can just say

morning you can use the g sound as well

it’s up to you to choose

some people ask what’s the difference

between good evening

and have a good evening the difference

is

good evening is a greeting to a way to

say hello

have a good evening is a way to say

goodbye

so when you say have a good day have a

good evening

you’re saying goodbye actually so that’s

the difference if you want to say hello

please use good evening if you want to

say goodbye use

have a good evening also please be

careful

you’ll notice good night is not here

good night is also a way to say goodbye

or especially like for children like

from parents to children

a way to say like the day is finished

just before bed so good night

is used just before we go to sleep as

well so again a good buy

so please be careful not have a good

evening or good night

these are greetings we can use good

evening is a much better greeting

it’s the correct greeting to you so

please use good evening

don’t use goodnight okay let’s continue

to the next

couple uh these are related you might

not know at first but uh what’s

up what’s up this is a question that

causes people a lot of nervousness i

think how do i respond

to this so just answer not much

not much this is the standard reply just

like

good is the standard reply here use

not much to answer what’s up what’s up

not much what’s up nothing is also okay

nothing what’s up nothing nothing

or again we’ll often drop this g sound

nothing

or nothing so that sounds more casual

so what’s up not much you nothing or not

much

the other person will probably say the

same thing

again if you choose to use something

like

oh i had a bad day or you start to

explain like a difficult situation or

you

hint that something bad happened you

should probably be prepared to talk

about that

so what’s up not much you and nothing

that’s a very typical greeting

actually okay so then this sup

this sup comes from what’s up it comes

from this

s-u-p what’s up

so this is a very casual way of saying

what’s up what’s up is casual

this is even more casual sup

so you can say not much or you can just

reply to

sup with sub

so you might use this again very close

friends sup

sup that’s it it’s like saying hello

saying what’s up

what’s new with you but just really

quick really short

sup sup okay let’s move along then to

kind of some more special use greetings

depending on the situation you might

need to say hello to someone you have

not

seen for a long time these are

expressions you can use to do that

first one i haven’t seen you in so

long or i haven’t seen you in

ages ages an age is a very long time

so ages shows a very very

long time so i have not seen you i have

not seen you

in so long another one very common

a long time no c long time no see

one more it’s been a while it’s been a

while where this

it’s is actually it has been a

while it has been a while since i last

saw you it’s been a while since i last

saw you but

we only say it’s been a while we drop

the

last part of that one more

nice to see you again or it’s nice to

see you again

nice to see you again so these all are

like

greetings we can use when we haven’t

seen the other person for a long time

so how do we answer this we can answer

all of these with the same pattern

first agree yeah it’s been a long time

so again

you can use these expressions you know

uh

yeah a long time to see or yeah it’s

been a while or i said

yeah it’s been a long time so first

agree with the person

and then ask a follow-up how are

things how are things you can use this

similarly to how are you or how is it

going

how are things means how is your life

how are things good the answer is good

how are things

good or how are things busy how are

things

all right those are all very common very

standard responses to use

others if you want to level up your

grammar a bit

how have you been how have you been

and what have you been up to so you’ll

notice here

the grammar here is very similar to

these expressions that we talked about

over here

how have you been this is like a past

perfect way of asking how are you so how

are you now how have you been

in the period since i saw you last

since the last time i saw you up until

now how have you been that’s how we can

ask about that

same thing what have you been up to

what have you been up to is like the

past perfect

question of what’s up what’s up so

you’ll see this up what is up

now what is up with what have you been

up to so in other words since i last saw

you

until now what did you do what have you

been doing

so asking about those activities in that

period

since you last met that person so this

will change depending on your activities

you can say um for example for this one

what have you been up to you can answer

with

for example nothing just work

if you have no special news what have

you been up to nothing just work

so that’s fine if you have special news

you can say

you know i got married or i moved or i

got a new job something quick

is the best way to answer this for this

one

how have you been go back to this good

you so very very simple answers are the

best

okay let’s go on to two more kind of

special youth greetings then first one

it’s great to finally meet you it’s

great to finally meet you

so you’ll see if i remove finally here

this becomes a very common greeting

it’s great to meet you it’s nice to meet

you

but if you’re meeting someone that you

admire or you really respect

or you were really excited to meet that

person like you’re a fan

they’re a famous musician or a celebrity

or an artist or

an athlete for example you’re really

excited to meet that person

you can say it’s great to finally meet

you this

shows the listener that you were really

looking forward to meeting them to

having the chance to meet with them

if someone says this to you or if you

use this with someone

a typical response is thank you

it’s nice to meet you too so they’ll

typically say something like thank you

or

that’s really nice it’s nice to meet you

too

so this is just the same as any other

first greeting first time meeting

someone it’s nice to meet you too

thanks it’s nice to meet you too another

one this one you might uh hear

actually when talking with friends and

meeting new people

especially if you’re studying or working

in another country

the expression is i’ve heard so much

about you i’ve heard so much about you

this i’ve

i’ve i have i’ve heard so much about you

and sometimes i’ve heard so much about

i’ve heard so much about you

from my colleagues or i’ve heard so much

about you from

my roommate so using from here

shows where that person got the

information so

this may or may not be included i’ve

heard so much about you

a typical response is really i hope

nothing bad

or i hope you haven’t heard anything bad

so this is kind of a

very casual way to respond i hope

nothing bad

meaning i hope you haven’t heard

anything bad

about me so this shows that

the speaker has gotten information has

gained information

about the person they’re meeting but

this is still the first time meeting

that person

so this tends to be used in situations

where

the speaker has heard positive

information

if you’ve heard negative information

about a person i don’t recommend using

this expression

this has a positive feel about it i’ve

heard so much about you

tends to sound very happy and cheerful

so you can say

really i hope nothing bad or i hope it’s

good

so that’s kind of a friendly way to

start a conversation

with someone who already has some

information about you

so this is a quick introduction to some

very common

english greetings i hope that that was

helpful for you and i hope that you got

some ideas

for responses to these greetings of

much for watching this lesson and i will

see you again next time bye-bye

hi everybody my name is alicia in this

lesson i’m going to talk about the

differences

between in time and on time

let’s begin let’s begin with

in time the expression in time

we use this expression to refer to

activities

with deadlines or limited time

periods for completion let’s take a look

at some examples so we can see

how to use this phrase first

he made it to the station in time

for his train so made it means like was

able to arrive he was able to arrive

to the station he made it to the station

in time for his train this use of

in time before the noun phrase

his train shows us that

he in this situation was able to arrive

at the station before the deadline

for his train so his train has a

specific

time there’s a specific time period in

which

he is able to catch a train enabled is

able to catch his

train rather so using in time

shows us that he was able to do that and

we have a positive

sentence here so he made it to his train

he was able to catch his train

let’s look at another expression or

another example of this expression

i finished work in time to watch

the soccer game i finished work in time

to watch the soccer game so here in time

comes before this verb phrase to watch

the soccer game this means i finished

work

with enough time to watch the soccer

game so the soccer game

there’s a fixed amount of time a limited

time period that i can watch the soccer

game

i finished work at a point in time

that allowed me to watch the soccer game

so i finished work and there was still

time remaining to watch the soccer game

so we use

in time to show that i was still able to

do that thing

here it’s with a verb phrase let’s

continue to the next

example sentence this one is a negative

she didn’t arrive at the examination

center in time to take the test

in time to take the test here we see

it’s another

verb phrase in time to take the test so

in time

to do this action so this is the action

here as we’ve seen

in each of these example sentences the

item the noun phrase or the verb the

activity

comes after the end time expression

so in this case in time to take the test

but remember i pointed out this is a

negative

she didn’t arrive at the examination

center

in time to take the test means

she didn’t arrive at the center with

enough

time to take the test so there was a

deadline

to take the test there was some limited

like period of time

within which she needed to arrive in

order to complete this action

however she did not arrive

in time she did not arrive within that

limited time period or before

that deadline and therefore she did not

take the test let’s continue to another

negative example of this they didn’t get

to the concert hall

in time for the show so again here

after in time we see for the show

in this case it’s a noun phrase so we

see

this is the thing that was not able to

happen

we know that it was not able to happen

because of this negative

they didn’t get get means arrive or come

to

they didn’t get to the concert hall in

time for

meaning they weren’t able to arrive

before the show began

or in the limited period that the show

was happening

they didn’t arrive in time to do that

so we use in time to show these sorts of

deadlines or that we weren’t

able to do something within the limited

time period that we have to complete

that activity

we can also use this expression in

questions

for example are you going to get to the

office

in time for your meeting here we see get

again

which means like arrive or come to are

you gonna get to the office

in time for your meeting this is a

question that’s asking are you going to

arrive at the office

with enough time to join this meeting so

that means a meeting is scheduled

there’s some plan

and the speaker is asking the listener

if the listener is going to arrive

with enough time or within this limited

time

period to participate in this activity

so we can use this in questions as well

i pointed out throughout the example

sentences too

these noun phrases and verb phrases that

we see

after in time so you’ll notice

when we use in time four we follow

four with our noun phrase so we saw

in time for his train or in time

for the show in time for your

meeting so these are all noun phrases

when we want to talk about a verb

however

like an action doing some kind of action

we use

to with our verb phrase and the verb is

in the infinitive

form so we saw here time

to watch the soccer game so here’s my

verb in the infinitive form in time to

watch the soccer game

here in time to take the test so the

infinitive form of the verb is there

so when you use in time please make sure

to think about these two points is it a

noun phrase

is it a verb phrase you’re talking about

okay so with this in mind let’s continue

to the second part of this lesson

on time on time on time

the meaning here is it refers to

activities

that happen at the appointed appointed

means scheduled

time so on time therefore

implies or we know when we hear on time

that in the past a schedule was set

so we decided on something for example

like transportations or like meeting

schedules class schedules

those kinds of timetables are very

commonly used with

on time so on time refers to something

happening at a

scheduled time in time refers to

activities with

deadlines or there’s a limited time

period to

complete it let’s look at some examples

of how we can use

on time then first

she arrived at the office on time

so here what was the action the action

was this

arrived she arrived past tense she

arrived

at the office on time this shows us

she arrived at the office at the

scheduled

time or as scheduled this is another way

to say it she arrived at the office

as scheduled she arrived at the office

at the scheduled time

let’s look at one more we finished work

on time

today so we finished work at the

scheduled

time today is another way to say this we

finished work on time

today not we finished work in time today

i’ll come back to a point like that in

just a moment but on time

shows it was scheduled another example

this one a negative

the game didn’t start on time the game

didn’t start on time shows as the game

was probably

late the game didn’t start on time the

game was supposed to or the game was

scheduled to start

at 3 pm for example but the game started

at 3 30

for example in that case we could say

the game

didn’t start on time a negative

let’s look at another negative i didn’t

turn in my homework

on time i didn’t turn in my homework on

time

so here i did not turn in my homework

but this shows on time this shows us the

action was completed it was just

late so i didn’t turn in my homework on

time at the scheduled time

in other words the homework was due at

10 o’clock i

turned in the homework at 10 30 or 11

for example

so this sentence i didn’t turn in my

homework means the action just did not

happen

i didn’t turn in my homework on time

means the action happened

late okay let’s take a look at a couple

other expressions

one he’s on time for his 3 p.m

meeting he’s on time for his 3 p.m

meeting this

is something you might hear for example

a secretary or an assistant

or just someone else reporting the

activities

of another person he’s on time

for his 3 p.m meeting this is a sentence

that means

the person here he or she they this

person

their activities throughout the day

today

have led them to be in a position

of being on time in the future now

that’s a very strange way to say this i

know

but it means that person has been doing

many things all day long

and so now they know that they have this

3 p.m

meeting but they’ve been doing all these

other things and now

they’re still okay they’re still okay to

attend this meeting at 3 p.m that’s what

this uh

implies he’s on time for a 3 p.m meeting

so this is typically something that’s

used for like busy people to describe

busy people’s schedules

he’s on time for this she’s on time for

that so

like you might hear it used for like a

president or a prime minister like

someone that has a very very hectic or

crazy schedule

you might hear people reporting about

that person’s schedule and that person’s

upcoming activities with something like

this

okay we can use this in a question as we

saw within time

for example is the conference going to

finish

on time is the conference going to

finish on time

means is the conference going to finish

as scheduled at the scheduled

time so you can see we use on time to

refer to

scheduled to like asking questions and

making statements

about scheduled things we use in time to

refer to deadlines for completion

of an action i mentioned one point

though

i think i talked about it here we

finished work on

time today i mentioned this is one

situation where i might see

some like mistakes from students we

finished work

in time today we could say this we

finished work

in time today we finished work in time

today for something else

so when you’re using in time you need to

explain

the activity the thing that you were

able to do

or not able to do when you’re using in

time

when you’re using on time you’re

referring to some

past scheduled action so you don’t

always need to

explain the specific thing that you’re

talking about so for example she arrived

at the office on time

there was some schedule or every day she

starts work at 9 00 am

for example that’s on time when you’re

talking about

in time it may be a good idea to include

it

in your sentence here as i’ve done

occasionally in conversation when the

activity is obvious native speakers will

drop that from

in time but you don’t always need to

include it with on time

it might be a good idea to include the

activity with

in time however so this is a quick

introduction to some differences between

in time and on time and some sample

sentences

of course if you have any questions or

comments or if you want to practice

making sentences

working day

hi everybody welcome back to know your

verbs my name is alicia and in this

episode we’re going to talk about the

verb

push let’s get started

let’s look at the basic definition of

the verb push

the basic definition is to use force

to move something away from you usually

examples we push the car out of the

garage

he pushed his chair into the aisle

let’s look at the conjugations for this

verb present

push pushes past

pushed past participle pushed

progressive pushing

now let’s talk about some additional

meanings for this verb

the first additional meaning is to

persuade someone

with force examples my boss is pushing

me to work more hours

don’t let them push you into a bad

decision so in both of these example

sentences

we see a situation where someone is

being

persuaded to do something

so when we use push it sounds like the

person

who is the object in the situation

does not want to do the thing that’s

being discussed okay so in the first

example sentence that means someone’s

boss

is pushing for more overtime work

so the boss wants more overtime however

the person involved in the situation the

person in the situation

does not want to work more over time the

boss tries to persuade

and they’re kind of using force so we

use

push to talk about that the boss does

not physically

i hope push this person but the boss

pushes

using words trying to persuade trying to

use

strong words to convince the other

person

to do overtime in the second example

sentence

don’t let them push you into a bad

decision it’s like there’s some

outside force outside person that’s

trying to convince

the listener in this case to make a

decision

but the decision might be a bad decision

for the listener

so in other words it means don’t let

them persuade

you or don’t let them convince you to

make a choice

that’s bad for you don’t let them push

you into a bad decision

the second additional meaning for the

verb push is to

advertise something a lot to advertise

something a lot

examples we’re really pushing our pdf

cheat sheets lately

what products should we push at the

trade show little joke about our pdf

cheat sheets there uh

totally my joke they didn’t tell me to

put it in but anyway

so when i say we’ve been pushing our pdf

cheat sheets recently it means we’ve

been advertising that product a lot

we’ve been advertising our pdf cheat

sheets a lot like on our live streams

and on our website and everywhere

like on our social media it means we’re

advertising that thing a lot so that’s

the thing that we hope

people see we want people to check out

that item

the second example sentence is a

question what products do we want to

push at the trade show

meaning what’s the focus advertisement

or what are the items we really really

want people to look at and we want to

show as much as possible what products

do we want to

push at the trade show okay let’s go on

to the third additional meaning

the third additional meaning is to try

to go

beyond something let’s look at some

examples first

marathon runners push the limits of

their bodies

the engineers are really pushing the

capabilities of the software

so in these example sentences we see

there’s some kind of

limit like in the first example it’s

body

limits so marathon runners try to push

the limits of their bodies

meaning the body has some established

limit like that means the body can do

this amount so

in this case it’s marathon running so

maybe the body could run

three to four hours at a time for

example where the body can run at this

speed i don’t know

it’s a lot so marathon runners try to

push this limit means they try to go

beyond

this limit that’s the image we’re

looking at here

so marathon runners try to push the

limits of their bodies try to go

beyond the limits of their bodies the

second example sentence is the same

but we’re talking about software

capabilities

so here the capabilities of the software

are the limit so the engineers

are pushing the capabilities of the

software

so now the software can do this but

maybe the engineers are making updates

are making changes

and they’re trying to go beyond the

current limits of the software so this

is maybe a nice visual i suppose for

this meaning of the verb

push okay let’s look at the fourth one

the fourth additional meaning for the

verb push

is to approach a number to approach a

number

let’s look at some examples sales are

pushing into the millions this year

grandpa is pushing 90. so we use this

when we’re like

wanting to express usually a high number

actually

when we’re talking about low numbers we

don’t really use

push push sounds like you’re approaching

a big

milestone so in the first example

sentence

sales are pushing into the millions it’s

like we’re gonna reach this milestone of

millions of sales so that’s a really

important number

so we can use pushing into which is like

it sounds like it’s an achievement

we’re going to move into the millions of

sales but pushing

sounds like a little bit like it was

kind of a struggle

maybe and so it’s like a special

achievement to reach this point

the second example sentence is similar

but we see it with

age so grandpa is pushing 90 means he’s

almost 90 maybe he’s 89 right now or 88

perhaps

but he’s nearly at the level of 90 years

old so that might be a difficult thing

to do

to live to 90 years old it sounds like

an achievement

and so it sounds like something that

could be a struggle so we can use

pushing to refer to nearly reaching that

point

we typically use this in the progressive

form actually we don’t use this in past

tense or in present tense really um

we don’t say like he pushes or she

pushed 90 or something like that we tend

to use it

in the progressive form to mean like

this is happening

now sales are pushing into the millions

grandpa is pushing 90. like right now

he’s approaching 90. so interesting

let’s move on to some variations for

this verb the first variation for the

verb push

is to push your luck to push your luck

so this has a very long

explanation to push your luck means to

try

too hard to get more

of something you already have and then

risk losing what you already have with

you

okay so let’s look at some examples it’s

hard to see okay

first one he agreed to take out the

trash

i probably shouldn’t push my luck and

ask him to

clean the kitchen too don’t push your

luck

the department isn’t likely to make any

more budget changes

so in the first example sentence he

agreed to take out the trash so that’s

like the achievement

the speaker got that he agreed to take

out the trash

the speaker also wants this person to

clean the kitchen

but they think uh i shouldn’t push my

luck

meaning i shouldn’t try too hard to get

something

more from this person i shouldn’t try

too hard for more from this person

because he might quit and

stop doing the task he originally agreed

to do

so i want him to clean the kitchen yes

but

i’ll stop i shouldn’t try too hard

because he might

quit the second example sentence there’s

kind of a subtle thing going on there

the second example sentence says don’t

push your luck so that’s an

advice statement the department isn’t

likely to make

any more budget changes so this sentence

implies we can guess that the listener

already got some kind of budget update

or maybe a budget increase

the person speaking in this situation is

advising

don’t try to get more in other words

like don’t try to ask for another budget

change or another budget update

because if you ask you might lose the

update you

already received so don’t push your luck

means don’t try to ask for

more of the thing you might lose what

you already gained

the second variation for the verb push

is to push around to push around means

to

bully someone to have mean behavior

towards someone

that has no meaning there’s no reason

for it you just push them around

they’re smaller or they’re not as

powerful as you

and so you can actually visually see

this like

to physically push someone around or to

push someone with your words as well

examples don’t let your co-workers push

you around

you shouldn’t push people around just

because they’re different from you

so to push around means probably in most

cases

using your words to push people around i

can’t think of many cases except in like

schools

where someone would physically just push

people around

in most cases it’s with words so you’re

using

like mean words or kind of bullying

behavior

to try to make uh yourself sound better

than another person

so don’t push people around in other

words you should try to be equal with

other people

so both of these example sentences show

them

the second example sentence you

shouldn’t push people around just

because they’re different from you

means you shouldn’t bully people just

because of a difference because of the

way they look or the way they sound or

where they work or live or whatever

so you should not do that you should not

push people around in other words you

should be kind to people

so those are a few new ways i hope that

you can use the verb

push if you have any questions or

comments or if you know another way to

use the word push please feel free to

examples one of my family members was

now let’s talk about some additional

meanings for this verb the first

additional meaning

is to take and use usually something

personality for the evening

maybe the company should adopt a new

strategy

so these sentences use the word adopt as

use in that situation so this is a

rather open meaning i know

in the first example sentence we see she

adopted an

upbeat personality for the evening so

adopted in this meaning means to take

something and to put it to use something

that’s new

so that means she isn’t usually

an upbeat person necessarily but for

this

evening she had this idea to have an

upbeat personality so she took on she

decided to become a more

upbeat person for the evening so that

means it’s something different

from her past behavior so for the

evening only

she decided to be upbeat she adopted an

upbeat personality for the evening

in the second sentence maybe the company

should adopt a new strategy

we see adopt being used to mean like

take on a new

strategy maybe the company should take

on some kind of

new strategy is what this sentence means

but

adopt is a quick and easy way to say

that to

take something like to take an idea in

and to put the idea to use

is like adopt to adopt an idea to adopt

a strategy in this way

let’s look at the second additional

meaning for adopt the second additional

meaning

is to accept something and implement it

examples the government has adopted a

new policy

we adopted the architect’s proposals for

our new home

so here we’re seeing adopt used very

similarly to the first additional

meaning

however it means that there’s something

that’s accepted

so like there is some outside idea like

some kind of proposal

that’s presented somewhere to somebody

some group

and then it’s accepted following the

acceptance

it’s implemented that idea is used it’s

put into effect

so there’s kind of this flow happening

with this use of

adopt so it’s not only taking on

something new

and using it like we saw in the first

additional meaning

it’s like there are a few different

steps there’s like a proposal a new idea

acceptance of that idea and then use of

that thing

in the first example sentence it’s about

the government the government has

adopted

a new policy means a new policy

was presented to the government the

government accepted the policy and the

government is now

using that new policy so there are

effects of that new policy there are all

these different stages of the new policy

so the government has adopted a new

policy

means it’s at this final stage so now

this new policy

is like in effect um so it’s been

accepted and now it’s going

to be in effect if it’s not in effect

already

in the second example sentence we

adopted the architect’s proposals for

our new home

we see the same sort of flow so there

was some idea from the architect

presented to the client

the client accepted the idea and the

architect put it into practice the

architect put it into effect

so there’s some acceptance and then

implementation of that thing so they

adopted the ideas in other words so they

took on that ideas and put them into use

into practice

the next additional meaning is to

promise to care for something to promise

to care for something

some examples our community group

adopted a park

the organization is adopting a highway

and plans regular cleaning

so in this use of adopt we’re often not

talking about

a person being adopted rather it’s a

place

like in the examples here it’s a park or

you might often hear a highway or some

other kind of community space

so to adopt that space to adopt that

location

means to care for that location in many

cases

adopting a park or adopting a highway or

something similar

means that a person or an organization

pays some money and their name becomes

attached to that location

but they are also then responsible for

caring

for that location so you might see this

on highways like i remember when i was

growing up

on the highways in california it would

say

adopt a highway program on the signs

there so

to adopt a highway means to give some

money have your name

attached to that part of the highway and

then have some responsibility for caring

for that part of the highway

so there might be some community places

that have been

adopted by people or by organizations in

the city

so there’s some kind of name recognition

yes but there’s also responsibility to

care for that

so it’s adopting like adopting a child i

suppose

but we’re adopting a place we have to

care for that place

make sure the place is nicely maintained

and

is safe and good for the community

essentially

so in addition to this you’ll also see

adopt used

to talk about pets this can be used

more to talk about adopting animals from

shelters so we don’t really use adopt

when we talk about

buying a pet from a pet store

rather adopting a pet is something that

occurs more

when an animal is in a shelter like the

animal has been

um like lost or the animal has been

abused or

um bad or negative past experience

there are a number of reasons why

animals might be in a shelter

but people who come to the shelter and

choose a pet from the shelter

we can use the verb adopt to describe

that activity of choosing a pet and

taking the pet

home in that case also to adopt a pet

means to come to a shelter and choose a

pet and take the pet home

with the promise of caring for that

pet so feeding the pet cleaning the pet

making a safe

environment for the pet too so

adopt can mean a location it can mean

for children as we talked about in the

basic definition

and we can also use adopt to talk about

pets as well pets that we

can find at shelters too okay so i hope

that you found a new way to use the verb

adopt in your everyday life uh if you

have any questions or comments or if you

want to try to make a sentence with the

verb adopt please feel free in the

okay today’s topic is five ways to make

sure you start on the right foot with

language learning

ever wondered if you’re on the right

path with your language learning or

if you’re studying the right things and

taking the right steps

well today you’ll learn how to start on

the right foot with your language

learning journey

we’ll talk about one why you must know

your reason for learning the language

two how to set fail-proof goals and

rewards

three how to match your daily routine to

your learning so that you don’t struggle

with the actual learning

4. why you need anchor points for

long-term motivation

and 5. how to improve faster with

ongoing assessment

how to start off on the right foot with

your language learning journey

there are five things you as a language

learner need to address

if you want to start off on the right

foot here they are

one your reason for learning two

your goal and reward three

matching your routine to your medium

four

anchor points and five assessments

if you get these squared away in your

first month you’ll be set up to succeed

with any language

goal you set and today we’ll walk you

through each point

the first one your reason for learning

why are you learning the language

so why is thinking about your why so

important

here’s an example think back to when you

were a kid and you were trying to save

money

what was the first thing you wanted to

buy and how much did it cost

you probably still remember what it was

and how much it cost

and because you knew the specific price

you were able to save up for it

if not at the very least you made more

progress than if you just said

i want to save money with no specific

purpose in mind

and that’s the thing if you know

precisely why you’re doing something

it’s easy to tie a goal to it and there

are all kinds of reasons to learn a

language

there’s travel family friends love or

maybe you’re living in a country that

speaks it

so knowing your reason clarifies your

mission

and gives you motivation from the start

now some reasons are

stronger than others for example living

in a country that speaks the language is

a powerful reason

you need it for survival if your reason

for learning is something simpler

like i just want to watch tv in that

language it’s not exactly something you

need to survive

does it matter whether you have a strong

reason or not not necessarily

strong reasons help with motivation

initially but people with strong reasons

can and do

fail and people with weak reasons

succeed it’s all up to the individual

but the point is you need to know why

you’re doing this

and that’s enough for you to take the

first step the second point

goals and rewards once you’ve clarified

your reason

it’s time to set your goals if you want

to succeed

your goal can’t just be i want to be

fluent one day

why because this tells you nothing about

how you’ll achieve it or

when you’ll reach fluency it’s too vague

your goal needs to be small measurable

realistic

and have a deadline so you can clearly

see the steps you need to take to reach

your goal

instead of saying i want to be fluent

one day which you can’t measure

and can’t precisely determine aim for

for example

30 words or one minute of conversation

you can measure these goals if you have

a deadline like

by next month you know your time frame

and unlike a goal like i want to be

fluent

a goal like i want to be able to talk

for one minute is much more realistic

now what about rewards now that you’ve

set a goal

you need to tie rewards to your goal why

rewards

shouldn’t you work hard first and worry

about rewards later

because rewards are powerful motivators

you should be working hard

but hard work often is not fun and you

need something to push you through

when you come home after a long day of

work on a rainy day

soaking wet the last thing you want to

do is open a book and start studying

it’s so much easier to turn on netflix

or something

but having that reward reminds you if i

achieve this then i get that

so defining what’s in it for me what do

i get boosts your motivation

you have something to look forward to

and get you through times when you don’t

feel like doing work

the third point is match your routine to

the study medium

once you have your goals and rewards you

need to fit your language learning

into your current life and daily routine

how

sit down and write out your daily

schedule for every day of the week

for example wake up at 7 00 am breakfast

at 8 a.m

get on the bus at 9 00 a.m work from 9

30 a.m

lunch at 1 pm and so on do this for

every day of the week

that way you can see where you can fit

in learning for example

if you ride the bus in the morning you

can use that time to listen to our audio

lessons

why do this well language learning is a

brand new routine

if you don’t work from your existing

daily routines it may not work out

for example if you decide to wake up an

hour earlier to study

now you’re adding two new routines

waking up earlier

and learning a language at once one is

hard enough but two makes it even harder

you may not wake up on time you may not

get out of bed you may fall right back

to sleep

the point here is you should piggyback

off of your existing routines

and use a learning medium that matches

your routine

so instead of waking up earlier keep

your daily routine

but look for another way to introduce

language learning

write out your daily routine see where

you spend your time and then match your

routine to learn it

if you take walks and listen to music

swap out music for language lessons and

listen along

if you take the bus or train check out

our audio and video lessons

if you usually read in the evenings and

can focus try using a textbook

in all of these examples you’re taking

an existing routine and adding language

learning inside

the fourth point is set anchor points

anchor points are the connections you

make to a language that boosts your

motivation and keep you attached or

anchored

to your goal so you don’t slip away so

what’s an example of an anchor point

for example if you have friends or

relatives that speak the language

and if you’re around them and you’re

exposed to the language you’re more

likely to learn

same thing with watching tv shows in the

target language you’re exposed to it

more

so your interest in learning naturally

goes up also

investing in a textbook or learning

program signing up for classes or for a

proficiency test

all of these are anchor points that

connect you back to the language

why do you need anchor points oftentimes

your initial reason for learning the

language

isn’t as motivating as it used to be

maybe you were motivated in month one

but not in month five that’s why people

with strong reasons

might fail so an anchor point gives you

another reason to keep going and boost

your motivation

and also often times the reason we start

isn’t the same as the reason we continue

anchor points are not something you need

to worry about in your first month of

learning

but adding them in the second month and

afterward will help you keep going

can you think of any anchor points you

can add leave a comment

finally the fifth point is you need

assessment

now that you have goals rewards routine

and anchor points

it’s not enough to learn a language

alone in a vacuum you need

feedback and course correction from a

native speaker

with our learning program you can learn

with your very own teacher

you can also leave comments on lessons

and get answers from the others

or you can find a tutor of your own

someone that will assess your progress

and correct you as needed

so let’s recap there are five things you

as a language learner need to address if

you want to start off on the right foot

one clarify your reason for learning

two set goals and rewards three

match your routine with your study

medium

four set anchor points and five get

ongoing assessment

we release new videos every week i’ll

see you next time bye

are you afraid of making mistakes in

your target language

afraid you’ll never ever be able to have

a conversation or give a presentation

or maybe you’re afraid of something else

in this video we’ll cover four fears

related to language learning and how to

overcome them

the first one is i’m afraid i’m not good

enough to speak

i freeze do you feel like you’re not

good enough to speak yet

a lot of people can relate to this one

probably all language learners have felt

this at some point

it’s a pretty common fear here are some

tips to overcome it

first speak from day one the best way to

get good at speaking is to practice

speaking

if you’re holding yourself back because

you think you’re not good enough you’re

making a mistake

that’s exactly why you’re not improving

you need to open your mouth and start

talking

second if you’re not sure what to say to

start speaking

consider practicing with existing

dialogues in our lessons

you get scripts for introducing yourself

making small talk ordering food

expressing opinions and

much more if you’re looking for some

things to use for speaking practice

the lessons will give you the exact

lines and conversations

our third tip learn with your own

teacher with our premium plus plan

with premium plus you get an actual

native speaker teacher to tell you what

to say

and how to say it you can actually learn

to speak with the help of a real native

teacher

fear number two is i’m afraid i’ll never

be fluent

this is a common fear for beginner

learners once you start improving and

seeing progress

this goes away when you’re just starting

out with a new language fluency can feel

like an impossible goal there are so

many new things to learn and so many

methods you can use

it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all

the options but you can’t let yourself

fall into that trap

the longer you keep at it the better

your language skills will become

and slowly you’ll stop worrying about

fluency

what’s important is that you put in time

and continue working on moving forward

so how do you overcome worries about

never becoming fluent

how do you motivate yourself to continue

first

set small specific goals instead of just

saying i want to become fluent

how do you know when you become fluent

fluency is hard to determine

instead of creating a vague hard to

understand goal for yourself

focus on working towards smaller goals

for example set goals like being able to

introduce yourself

or having a five-minute conversation

something you can measure

so you’ll know when you’ve reached it

fluency can be difficult to measure

if you set goals that you can measure

you can track your progress

this helps keep your motivation up over

time

the third fear is i’m afraid i’m not

actually learning or making progress

if you’re afraid you’re not making

progress there are a few things you can

do right now

first of all review a lot of people hear

a new phrase once

and think they’ll remember it but that

usually doesn’t happen

so when they forget what they’ve learned

they get worried that they’re not

learning

or that the lessons don’t work but the

truth is you have to review again and

again to truly master something

second use the dashboard to track your

progress

if numbers and data are helpful for you

as you track your learning

check out our dashboard it tracks your

progress and gives you dynamic reports

third try a harder lesson on the site

you might not understand it all at first

and that’s okay

you’ll be able to after some study all

lessons come with line-by-line

translations and our teachers explain

every single word break down these

harder lessons

if you have to work a little more slowly

it’s okay when you finish the lesson you

can be sure of your progress

because you’ll be able to understand

something you didn’t understand a few

minutes earlier

fourth learn one-on-one with a teacher

with our premium plus plan

they will personally review your writing

and your speaking and will fix your

mistakes

getting regular feedback from a native

speaker is a great way to know if you’re

making progress

it’s such a great feeling to hear a

native speaker tell you wow you’re

getting good

the fourth fear is i’m afraid of not

understanding anything i hear this is

very common

you hear advanced grammar and vocabulary

and it goes completely over your head

you have no idea what you’ve just heard

here are some tips for working on this

issue

if you’re taking an advanced lesson read

along with the script reading along with

our line-by-line dialogue is the best

way to improve your understanding of

advanced conversations

if you’re in a real life situation the

solution is quite simple

learn useful phrases like excuse me can

you say it again slower

or can you say it in simpler words or

even just

i don’t understand there’s nothing wrong

with saying that you didn’t understand

something or asking for help

these are some common fears for most

language learners and we hope these tips

help you

is there anything else that you’re

afraid of when it comes to learning

another language

can share some suggestions for how to

overcome them

our channel

we release new videos every week i’ll

see you next time

bye are you struggling to reach your

language learning goals

or losing motivation for learning in

this video we’re going to talk about how

to reach your goals

how to enjoy the process and the

importance of rewarding yourself

part one how to reach your language

goals

it’s pretty exciting when you reach a

goal you know your hard work is paid off

and you can see your results

but how do you set goals to ensure you

can reach them and get that feeling of

satisfaction

the best way to see real results and

achieve your language learning goals is

to set small

measurable goals many people make the

mistake of setting big

vague goals like i want to be fluent or

i want to speak a new language then they

download an app

or get a textbook and they try to reach

their goal but they quickly give up

because the goal they’ve set for

themselves is too

overwhelming this is why it’s important

to set small

measurable monthly or weekly goals from

the beginning of your studies

reaching your goals helps you develop

confidence in yourself and your ability

to get things done

for example you might make it a goal to

be able to have a one minute

conversation by the end of your first

month of studies

and have a two-minute conversation by

the end of month two

maybe after six months you aim to have a

10-minute conversation with someone

specific measurable goals like these

help you track your progress and prevent

you from getting overwhelmed

by creating small goals like these you

set yourself up for success

when you reach one of your goals even if

it’s a small one you feel a sense of

accomplishment

this helps you enjoy the learning

process which is the next topic we’re

going to focus on

part two how to enjoy the language

learning process

if you’re always focused on goals and

results though how do you enjoy the

process of learning a language

okay so let’s say that in addition to

larger goals you’ve made small realistic

goals like learning 100 words in a month

that’s three to four words per day goals

like these are very easy to accomplish

and when you complete them it feels good

this is one of the enjoyable parts of

learning a language

so imagine accomplishing small goals all

throughout your week

it’s a great way to keep your motivation

up and enjoy the process of learning

smaller goals can help you stay on track

and keep your confidence up

when we feel like we’re not making

progress we can get frustrated and lose

motivation

think about days when you’re super busy

at work or at school

some days you might be so busy you don’t

complete any tasks

when nothing seems to move forward we

can lose confidence in ourselves and

feel like quitting

this is why giving yourself some small

easy to accomplish goals can be

extremely helpful

you can approach your studies with

confidence because you know that you’re

working towards your next goal

and that you can actually achieve it

here’s something you can try if you feel

like your progress has slowed down

go back and review something you studied

a few weeks or a few months earlier

try to remember how difficult it was at

first looking over past materials can

help us understand how much we’ve grown

the same thing is true for conversations

when you start learning a language

you’ll learn things like how to

introduce yourself

ask basic questions and talk about the

weather after a few months of study

though

you’ll learn how to talk about your

hobbies your neighborhood or your

personality

it’s sometimes hard to remember just how

much progress we’ve made

but look back on your work from time to

time all those hours you put in are

reflected in your current abilities

it’s exciting when you realize how far

you’ve come of course

some people might also reflect on

mistakes they made especially if these

mistakes led to miscommunications with

native speakers

while these memories can be embarrassing

they can still be useful for your

studies

try to shift your mindset towards

mistakes making an embarrassing mistake

can be helpful in the long run

because we remember the experience

vividly and we want to avoid repeating

it

if the mistake wasn’t so embarrassing

maybe you can laugh about it and use

that memory to ensure you make the right

decision in the future

lastly we want to remind everyone of the

most enjoyable part of the language

learning process

the new friends connections and

experiences you gain through the

language

you can use the language you’re studying

as a tool to create friendships to meet

new people and to travel

if you ever get to a point where

learning isn’t fun or interesting

anymore

take a moment and consider why are you

getting overwhelmed

falling behind on your goals if your

schedule has changed or your goals have

changed that’s fine

adjust your study plan and your study

goals to make the learning process work

for you

revise your approach and make sure

you’re enjoying learning

part three the importance of rewards

if you haven’t gotten into the practice

of rewarding yourself for reaching a

goal

now is a great time to start a reward

can be a powerful way to motivate

yourself to complete a goal

if your reward is travel or event

related it can also act as a finite

deadline

this can push you to focus even more you

can decide to reward yourself with

something you buy with an experience or

maybe just with some time to relax

choose a reward that will work best for

you

positive reinforcement can be very

helpful in the learning process

it’s one thing to hit a goal and feel

good about it but if you have a reward

too it seals the deal

it helps you keep the cycle going and

will help you keep learning

so today we covered goal setting how to

enjoy the process of learning

and the importance of rewards make sure

you set small measurable goals in

addition to your larger goals

find ways to enjoy the process of

studying and make sure to reward

yourself for your achievements

learning a language should be fun and

satisfying

大家好，欢迎回来询问

艾丽西亚每周系列，你

问我问题，我回答 哼哼，

这周的第一个问题可能来自

曼努埃尔·卡洛斯，嗨，曼努埃尔·曼努埃尔

在正式

英语中说你好，以

强调一下我有两个问题首先我

和一位以美国英语为母语的

人谈过这个问题，并被告知这些

结构不再是 用过 它们

早在 1920 年代就使用过，

你认为我的一本书中的第二个是什么？

它说我们也可以

偶尔使用一次，而且经常在

句子的开头使用以

强调重点是这两个表达

方式没有列出 在其他书籍或视频

课程

中 你的想法是什么 你的想法 一些

例子 她经

常来这里 他们是否

偶尔迟到 他是否偶尔洗他的

车 我喝酒吗

谢谢 非常

有趣 问题倒置仍然

今天使用，但正如你所说，它

更多地用于正式场合，

或者用于诗歌类型的

写作，

因此可以

控制节奏和感觉

确实非常需要一个句子的

倒置，所以它今天仍然使用，

但是一个关键点，这是关于

你问题的第二部分的一个关键点，但是

要注意，当我们

使用这种倒置模式制作句子时，

我们 ‘在开头使用否定副词和

否定副词短语

，所以也许这是

您在其他教科书和

其他视频中看到的内容

，这就是让我

认为您提供的示例或句子

不

那么自然的原因 因为经常

和偶尔不是消极的

副词表达，

所以要使它们成为消极的，你可以

说不经常，比如她不经常

洗车或其他什么，但这

并不是我觉得很

自然的事情，我们不会” 不是真的

说你偶尔提供的另一个例子，

我们可以通过只添加一个负面的例子，

比如我只偶尔喝一次

酒，

所以这就是我的感觉

实际上

只能偶尔说一次，这听起来

像一个更自然的模式

我不会我真的不觉得这种

不经常使用的模式

会

像这些

倒置类型的句子那样经常被使用 所以回答

你的问题，

嗯，是的，它们在某些情况下仍然使用，

是的，也许在日常对话中没有那么多

，至少在美式

英语中你

可能会听到更多的

英式英语，我想

嗯，而且通常也是焦点 是关于

在开头使用否定副词和否定副词短语，

所以我希望这对你有帮助

非常感谢这个有趣的问题

好的，让我们继续你的下一个问题

下一个问题

来自 nuria garayeva 你好 nuria

maria 说你好 alicia 可以吗 解释

which 和 that 之间的区别，当然我已经

多次讨论过这个话题，但

不是最近，

所以让我们刷新一下，

简短的回答是差异 e

在 that 和

which 之间是 that 用于

限制性从句，which 用于

非限制性从句 所以什么是

限制性从句 什么

是非限制性

从句 限制性从句是句子中的从句

，它为我们提供

有关名词的基本信息 我们

需要有关名词的信息

才能完全理解名词

非限制性从句是

句子中的从句，

如果我们没有该从句，我们

仍然可以理解名词

所以可能有不同的词

用于限制性或非限制性，

如描述性或非描述性

从句，但它们谈论的是

相同的事情，

所以让我们看一个

限制性从句和非限制性

从句

的例子 我在苹果

商店

买的手机很好用 我在苹果商店买的这款手机

很好用，所以这两句话

它们

本质上是一样的 信息所以我为什么

说一个是限制性条款而

为什么一个是非限制性条款

所以在这种情况下我们很容易理解我在

谈论这个电话

是的就像我们知道在这两种情况下它都是这个

电话

但是限制性条款变得

很重要

例如，在我们有很多电话的情况下，

让我们假设说话者

有三个电话

，并且说话者需要

区分说话者需要传达

他或她在对话中正在谈论的电话

，

我们可以使用限制性条款来做到

这一点，例如

我在苹果商店

买的手机完美运行我从

二手店买的手机真的很慢

我从公司收到的手机

有点旧

所以在那些句子中我们使用它是

因为我们正在给一些

关于每部手机的特定识别信息，

因此在我们

谈论三个不同

对象的情况下，我们需要

非常清楚地说明差异，我们将使用

res

在不那么重要的情况下使用限制性条款，

例如当我们清楚地知道我的意思是这个

电话时，

我们可以使用 which 和非限制性

条款来谈论电话，

所以这是这之间的基本区别

，当然母语

人士不会 ‘不幸的是，这并不总是正确的，

所以你可能会看到人们交替使用这两者，

但这实际上是区分两者的一种非常常见的方式

，所以如果你

想了解更多关于这个主题的信息，我

制作了一个关于这个的视频，

请查看相关

条款 或

英语课 101 youtube 频道上的视频以

获取更多示例

和更多解释，我

希望这对您有所帮助，谢谢您的

问题，

好吧，让我们转到您的下一个问题，下一个

问题来自

nicole，您好，nicole nicole 说让我知道

您是否

如果我是你可以使用我会确定

你不能使用这个模式如果你

想开始

你的 if 条件语句如果我

是你

你需要使用一些东西 在

反映

不真实或不真实情况的主要条款中，这是

因为

如果我是你是不真实的，那不是真的，

我不是你那不是真实的，所以我们的主要

条款需要与我们的 if 条款相匹配，

我们的主要条款需要

包含

will 或 would ‘不匹配

if 子句中的 were 所以如果我是你我会

或者如果我是你

我不会例如如果我是你我

会休假

或者如果我是你我不会辞掉我的工作

所以 你不能用

will 代替 will 请使用 will

或

would 我希望这对你有帮助 谢谢你

的问题

好吧 让我们去你的下一个问题 下一个

问题

来自 pandy 嗨 pandy pandy 说

授权认证有什么

区别

是名词吗

授权

是允许某人做某事的行为

认证

是证明某事或某人是

真实

或真实的过程 一些示例 我需要管理

授权才能进入

建筑物中的密室

我们终于获得了授权

推进新产品

的开发 小偷的文书工作没有通过

身份验证

未知登录 检测到

需要用户身份验证

所以关于

用户身份验证

的最后一个例句是你可能会在网上看到的，比如

有人试图访问你的帐户，

或者如果你 尝试从不同的地方访问您的电子邮件

您的社交媒体帐户

或

您的帐户发生奇怪的事情

您可能会被要求进行用户

身份验证，这意味着证明

您是我们通常通过

检查电子邮件地址或电话

号码或 类似的东西，

所以身份验证是指检查

某事是否真实

授权是指允许某人做某事的行为或

过程，

所以我希望

这对您有帮助

非常感谢您提出的问题 好的

，继续我们的下一个问题

下一个问题来自 silas

fast hi silas silas says hi alicia how’s

it going

good 呃我的问题是关于

结构的 ture

2b 2 在下面的句子中

，女王要访问加拿大，你要穿

正式的衣服去白宫

晚宴，你不能离开房间

，你能解释一下它是如何工作的，是的，很好的

问题，我们用这个

来加上不定式

当

我们谈论官方规则或

谈论官方

时间表时的动词，所以这不是

我们

在美式英语的日常对话中

经常使用的东西，通常是在正式情况下，比如

当我们参加考试时 测试，

或者我们正在谈论官方

时间表，或者我们正在谈论官方

规则，例如在考试情况下，

或者

像大型组织一样，当我们也想

制定否定规则时，

我们不要放在动词之前，

所以还有更多示例 这个学生

在考试结束前不要离开房间

客人要把鞋子留在

门口

员工要在他们开始工作时登记入住

所以我希望这对你有帮助这个

结构是正式的 或官方

规则和时间表

非常感谢这个问题 好吧

一如既往地感谢您发送您的

非常感谢您观看

本周的一集 问艾丽西亚，

下周再见

艾莎艾莎说嗨艾丽西亚你能谈谈

如何以及在哪里使用

撇号这些选项中哪一个是正确的好吧

所以

看看这

三个例子 屏幕

并记下每一个中

撇号的位置

，所以我将讨论

这个句子是两座建筑物的门

和窗户，好吧，当然，所以我们可以使用

撇号来表示拥有

并显示单词的简化形式，

例如 it’s

或 can’t 等等，所以这

是我们

在这个解释中

使用撇号的两种方式

在这句话中使用撇号

只是在建筑物中的 s 之后的撇号，

所以这两座建筑物的

撇号门窗

是我们唯一需要撇号的地方

这是因为句子中的门窗

属于两者 建筑物，所以这两个

建筑物是主题，

所以我们不需要像

撇号一样使用我们不需要

在门窗之后使用某种所有格标记，

因为我们’ 没有表明门

或窗就像某物的所有者

实际上在这里建筑物就像

所有者所以

我们用

撇号标记财产以更深入地

了解为什么

当我们有一个以 s 结尾的词时

我们使用撇号，但我们不会

在单词中添加另一个 s 请注意，尽管我们

从不使用撇号使名词

复数

作为一般指导，然后当您

使用以 s 结尾的名词时，

只需在 s 之后添加撇号

如果

名词不以 s 结尾，则

表示占有，添加撇号 s 表示占有所以

让我们看几个

以单数和复数形式以 s 结尾的名词

示例，例如

单数

的连衣裙颜色和连衣裙的颜色

复数汽车的灯，所以你可以看到

，即使单数形式

和复数形式

具有相同的发音，我的

意思是就像衣服的颜色

和衣服的颜色一样，我们理解

一个是复数，因为 th e 后面的词

是复数，所以在第一个例句

中，dresses color 所以dress 以

s 结尾是的，我们在 s 之后用撇号表示占有

，然后是单数颜色，这样在第二个例子中，

它向我们表明它是一种颜色的

一种衣服

虽然连衣裙

颜色所以连衣裙

在语音中是复数，但它们听起来是一样的，但是复数

连衣裙后面跟着一个撇号来

表示拥有

，然后我们用复数形式的颜色也跟着它，

所以这向我们表明它不仅仅是一件

连衣裙，我们可以听到 这

也是在演讲中，所以它向我们展示了它

不仅仅是一件衣服，它是两件或更多衣服

，我们知道因为那里描述了不止一种

颜色，

所以我们通常可以

从上下文中猜测这些事情，

但这同样适用于结尾的名词

s 无论它们是复数还是单数，

让我们将其与不以 s 结尾的名词进行比较，

当名词不以 s 结尾时，我们只需

添加撇号 s 来表示拥有

一些儿童书籍的

例子 e team’s work 我们酒店的工作人员

所以这些都以撇号 s 结尾

因为名词本身不以 s 结尾所以

这

是使用撇号表示拥有的一般规则

所以请记住我们不使用

撇

号表示单词 i 的复数形式

希望这对你有帮助

非常感谢你的问题 好吧

让我们继续你的下一个问题

下一个问题来自 amar ismail

你好 amar

amar 说嘿 alicia 什么是 beat the

wrap 是什么意思

以及我如何使用它 好吧 很酷所以

打败说唱

意味着逃避惩罚，它

通常

是你应得的惩罚，所以就像

你做错了什么

你应该受到惩罚，但你

以某种方式逃避，

所以这是一个有趣的表达我

找到了一些

历史关于这个

表达的一些信息，这个

说唱意味着像法律惩罚或

就像官方

对你的惩罚和说唱 说唱的这个意思或说唱的

这种用法

来自或者它可以来自

包裹某人的指关节的表达 s

所以指关节就是你

手的

这个部分 呃所以你手指的这个部分 真的

像你的

手指可以弯曲的地方被称为你的

指关节 所以

很久以前对小学生的常见惩罚

是把孩子的指关节包裹起来

作为惩罚 对于不良行为 so to

wrap something

意味着以强烈的方式击打或喜欢罢工，

例如快速、

迅速，所以这是 rap 的动词形式，

但因此 to rap

与惩罚联系在一起，

因此 to beat the rap

意味着喜欢征服以克服一些

一种惩罚

so to beat the rap

换句话说就是逃避某些事情，或者想

办法逃避对你造成的惩罚，

所以在一个例句中，你可以

说

我回家晚了，我妈妈真的很

生气 但我通过告诉

她我必须带一个朋友回家

或者他在工作中犯了一个巨大的错误来

击败说唱，但他通过将其归咎于计算机

问题

来击败说唱，所以击败包装意味着就像

逃避某些人 w 从您可能应该受到的惩罚中，您

可能应该得到，

您可能还会听到类似的表达方式

，即 take

the rap take the rap 所以再次 rap 指

的是惩罚，

但 take the wrap 意味着接受

惩罚 应该是给别人的，所以你

没有做错别人做的事，

但你决定喜欢接受他们的

惩罚，

所以你可能会听到这个表达

习惯所以另一点要提到的是，

这

不是一个常见的短语，这些天你

可能听到

像 take the hit 的意思是接受

别人的惩罚，

但我们并没有真正

在日常演讲中使用这个表达，至少在

美国英语中，但如果你

在电影或书中遇到这个，

也许

就是这样 所以我希望这

对你有帮助非常感谢

这个问题

好吧让我们继续你的下一个问题

下一个

问题来自赫克托你好赫克托赫克托说你好

艾丽西亚我想知道 w 指一个

问很多问题的人

我认为这有点像询问或

好奇，但我不确定

例如在工作面试中我如何

解释我认为自己是一个

喜欢提问的人，

如果某事是 对

我来说不清楚 好吧 是的 我认为在这种情况下

也许最好的词是

inquisitive

就像你天生对

学习事物感兴趣 可能你想

看看和看到

很多不同的东西，但这

不仅意味着

想问

问题 对一个

好奇的

人的印象通常是积极的，也许是

一个聪明

且对学习事物感兴趣的人，这

很好，

但如果你问很多

问题 特别是个人问题，

您可能会被视为爱管闲事，所以

爱管闲事是另一个形容词，指的是

喜欢问问题的

人 细线就像一个

关闭他们有点接近好奇

和爱管闲事所以好奇通常是一件

好事但你不想爱管闲事所以

在这种情况下我会说好奇

但是正如你在你的例子中提到的

如果你想说话 关于喜欢问

很多问题

以明确某些事情，这

不是我们会如何使用

inquisitive 我们使用 inquisitive 来

谈论一个

自然想了解事物

并提出

问题的人，例如只是因为他们想

学习

而不是因为某些事情不清楚 喜欢

它有一种人做某事的感觉，

来自

内部动机 他们只是想

知道

他们不想喜欢的事情 纠正错误

或试图克服 忍受

他们在工作中遇到的困难，所以

在这种情况下我们不会真正使用 inquisitive 而是我们

可能会使用与

您提出的完全一样的表达方式

您会说类似我是

那种喜欢问的人

很多问题

如果我不清楚的话，

这是一个非常自然的反应

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 alexander 嗨 alexander

alexander 说你好 alicia 我的名字是

alexander 或 alex，我来自巴西

我正在学习搭配，

昨天我在学习

咖啡 我发现了三个我以前

从未见过的词

一个渗透 两个不冷不热 三个

不温不火 我想知道这些

词在我在都柏林的日常用语中是否常见

一年了，

到目前为止我还没有听到过，

谢谢，好的，非常有趣的问题

首先让我们谈谈搭配这个词，

这样每个人都可以

理解这是什么

意思搭配是一个

经常与另一个词一起使用的词

，例如这个词咖啡a

咖啡的常见搭配

是杯子，所以杯子和咖啡经常

在一起，

因为例如咖啡杯这个表达，

所以我们也可以把它用作动词来

搭配，所以当我们想把它用作

动词时，我们可以说

杯子这个词搭配

咖啡，指两个或

更多经常一起使用的单词 学习

搭配真的很有帮助，

因为你可以看到

哪些单词经常一起使用

，它可以帮助你做出更自然的

单词选择，

所以现在我们知道了搭配

是什么 让我们看看这些

例子 第一个词是

percolated 在这种情况下你

有过去时动词形式

所以两个 percolate 意味着

使液体通过 另

一种

不是液体的物质可以通过可渗透的

物质，

因此可渗透的物质是一种

非固体的物质，

因此我们可以使液体通过它，或者就像

阳光可以透过窗户一样，

窗户可以是可透过的，

因此事物可以通过这种

物质

所以就像土壤一样，泥土是一种可渗透的

物质，或者咖啡渣是一种

可渗透的

东西，所以可渗透的物质

是这个词的关键点，

另一方面，液体通过那些如此渗透的物质

实际上就像一个非常科学的词，

所以我们不 在日常演讲中经常使用它

来谈论煮咖啡

当我们想谈论咖啡时，我们说

我要煮咖啡 我们通常不会

说

我要让水渗透到

咖啡渣中 这听起来很

科学，而且 非常僵硬，我们通常不会

这么说，

但如果您正在

阅读一些

关于昂贵咖啡豆的信息，或者如果

您正在

学习非常昂贵的咖啡豆，您可能会遇到它 咖啡店，

他们希望分享

信息，例如他们如何制作咖啡的详细过程，

您可能会以这种方式看到它，但

通常渗透

在日常演讲中并不常见，所以我

希望第二个回答这个问题，

虽然呃，第三个

那件事是

不冷不热 不冷不热 不冷不热和不温不火的

意思是一样的，

所以它们都意味着有点温暖，就像

它有点像室温或

比体温低一点，所以不冷不热和

不温不火都用来指

咖啡的温度 所以大多数人想要咖啡

热的或冷的 温热的咖啡通常

不是一件好事，所以我们可以说，我

讨厌喝温热的咖啡，

或者这种咖啡不温不火，

这意味着它的温度不是很好

，就像这种

室温咖啡

很温热

对我个人而言，温热的比渗透更常用于演讲，

我倾向于使用

微温而不是温热，但其他人可能

更喜欢使用温热的

那些 t 两个词是相当常用的

percolate 不是很常用，但

你可能会不时看到它，

所以我希望这对你有帮助，

并祝你继续学习搭配好运

好，让我们继续我们的

下一个问题本周的下一个问题

来自 sanju hi 再次 sanju

sanju 说 hi alicia 你好吗 我

一直在看你的视频

我的问题是不再和不再有什么区别

同样，我们用它来指代

在

此之前和将来都是正确的东西

不会是正确的，所以不同之处

实际上只是

我们如何造句

，我们需要考虑一些

变化 我们使用这些句子时的结构

所以让我们先看两个

例句

我们将不再为员工提供免费午餐

我们将不再为员工提供免费午餐

好吧 在第一个例句中，

您可以看到，

在这种

情况下，动词是提供的，

所以当我们想不再使用时，我们

通常将它放在句子中的动词之前，

您可能会听到不再出现在 a 的

末尾 句子，尤其

是短句，但

听起来很老套，

所以现在我们倾向于在动词前面使用它，

所以

我们将不再为员工提供免费午餐，

另一方面，当我们不再使用时，

我们需要放置它 在句尾

，我们需要

在句子前面的动词前面加上否定词，

所以

我们将不再为员工提供免费午餐，

所以这些

是我们需要的句子结构方面的差异 如果您

想使用更多类似的附加点

，请遵循

相同的模式，因为它们意味着

相同的事情，

所以让我们再看一对

我不能再等待或我不能再等待的示例，

并且 我不能 ait 不再，

所以我们在第一个示例中遵循相同的模式，

它不再使用

我们将它放在动词 i 不能再等待之前，我也

给出了不再

在句子末尾的示例，但这

听起来很老- 塑造和善良

的第二个是我的第二个，但是你可能会注意到

我不能等待我做到来到

不能等待我不能再等待

这是因为它听起来更自然，

所以原来的句子可以

不要再等了，但是我们可以将

can 和 not 组合成 can’t ，这听起来

更自然，所以

我不能再等了，所以它们具有

相同的含义是的，

这只是在

你如何用这些构建句子方面有所不同

问题，我希望这对你有帮助

观看本周的问

艾丽西亚，我

下周再见，再见，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

也许本周的第一个问题来自

萨达夫亚斯明你好萨达夫萨达夫 说嗨，

艾丽西亚，我有两个问题

首先是什么意思以及

你如何使用它

我在歌词中看到这个词就像没有

人让我有这种感觉

我的第二个问题是什么

意思 在我自己躺在这里完全清醒的句子中阅读它

现在我无法完全

理解它好吧

首先让我们谈谈一个不是很好的

问题

不是一个非常有趣的词

因为它可能意味着很多事情

它可能意味着是 不是 are not

am not have not 和 has not 它可以表示

所有这些东西，并且 ain’t 在某些情况下也

被认为是一种非常随意的

粗略词，它实际上取决于

使用它的人，

例如在美国

我们所拥有的与

ain’t 这个词相关联的图像

可能是像音乐家或牛仔这样的西部乡村

他们可能会使用 ain’t 这个词听起来

有点随意或粗鲁和酷，

你可能还会听到 ain’t used 在

流行音乐或说唱或 r 和 b 等其他音乐中

，ain’t 的感觉有点随意

，有点粗糙，有点像艰难，也许

有时也是

如此，所以这真的取决于

使用 ain 这个词的人的个性

’t 也很特别，因为我们

在

ain’t 这个词后面加上否定词，所以在你的

例子中，你说

ain’t nobody 或另一个例子

可能类似于 ain’t never done

这

件事，所以我觉得实际上很

奇怪 这么说是因为我不是

那种喜欢 应该使用

ain’t 这个词，

但是当我们使用 ain’t 时，我们会在后面

加上否定词，比如 ain’t

nobody 所以在你的例子中，ain’t nobody

who make me feel

this 意味着没有任何人让

我有这种感觉

因此，在许多情况下，例如您的示例

，我们

遵循 ain’t 否定句，例如 ain’t

nobody 或 ain’t no

或 ain’t nothing 所以这只是意味着

不是或

不是后面的任何东西，但

可能有 在某些情况下，您

在年龄后看不到负面影响，例如我没有

那个，

或者我不买那个，所以这只是

意味着负面的

我不买那个，或者他们不再那么

做

，这真的取决于

人，呃，这真的

可能也取决于地区，

所以

注意你看到和听到使用这个词的人的种类

，也许你可以理解

呃，它可能

适合使用它的时间

以及是否或

正如我提到的，我

个人不使用这个词，

但这对你来说不是很好 无论如何我们如何在美式英语中使用它

关于你关于

表达完全清醒

的第二个问题是清醒的意思是清醒但

我们在我们通常睡着的时候使用它

所以例如可能在

凌晨两点左右大多数人

通常是睡着了，但是如果你很

清醒，就好像你醒着

，你不能闭上眼睛去

睡觉，

所以把你的眼睛想象成你

的眼睛本身是

睁大的，

就像你不能闭上眼睛一样，这可能会有所帮助

很

清醒，所以你不能入睡 通常

我们会在应该睡觉的时候使用这个表达，

例如，

我在凌晨 2 点醒来，我醒了好

几个小时，

或者当我起床去洗手间时

看到我的狗很清醒，这很奇怪，

所以用这种方式来

谈论

在一个奇怪的时间保持清醒我

希望这能帮助你

谢谢你的问题好吧让我们

继续你的下一个问题

下一个问题来自 鲁博嗨

鲁博鲁博说 嗨，艾丽西亚

，

刮和刮有什么区别啊，

好问题通常很好，在很多

情况下它们确实具有相同的含义，

但是对于刮，我们通常

对

非生物使用刮，当

我们

谈论非常

当我们谈论试图

去除难以去除的

东西时，我们经常使用刮擦表面上的重物或非常锋利的物体

，例如哦，不，我

在大门上刮掉了我的车，或者我用刮擦

刮掉了墙上的油漆 刀，

所以就像有某种重物

或锋利的物体

在另一个表面上移动，通常

是为了或计划

去除其他

东西另一方面，划痕

是我们

更常用于生物的东西，因此

与人或动物一起使用

我们通常在谈论时使用刮擦

，例如使用

我们身体的锋利部分，例如指甲或

爪子，甚至是

牙齿，我们谈论使用

锋利的东西

并将其拖过sur 面对

，例如，我可能会说，哎哟，我

刮伤了我的手臂

或小心我的猫可能会刮伤你，

所以刮痕通常用于人类

和生物

，刮擦通常用于

谈论机器

或其他非常重且锋利的物体

正在 拉或拖过一个表面，

所以我希望这对你有帮助，谢谢你

的问题，

好吧，让我们继续你的下一个问题，

下一个问题来自

saith aldine，你好 saif saif 说你好 alicia

，你能解释一下

为什么我们使用 out 和 in 或 up

像什么时候 有人说我走到

门口，

如果是我，我会打开它，我会说我走到

门口

，我打开它这

两个句子有什么区别，

谢谢，是的，超级好问题，我们经常

用身体动作来回答

与物理运动相关的

动词表示我们做了那个动作直到某个

点，所以我们去

了那个东西，或者我们移动到那个东西

并停止了，

所以我们通常使用这个的动词

就像

walk run open close

go as well so 我们在这些之后用完

来标记该动作停止的点，

您可能还会

听到与此一起使用的声音，例如在您的

示例中，

我走到门前打开它，或者

我走到门前打开它

意味着我移动到

门的点，然后我打开它，

它显示了

一个活动或动作停止另一个

你可能使用的

情况的点，就像在你的办公室里和某人说话，

就像我走到我的老板

面前问她是否有 另一个

例子可能是

我的同事跑到我的办公桌前帮助

我

，以这些方式一遍又一遍地用完，

然后用

两个标记表示某些动作停止的点，

这样你就可以用完来做

这个我们不

如果你

谈论

旅行，就像我要去这个

城市或者我

要去邮局一样，你可能会听到这种说法，你可能会听到这种说法，

但通常当我们

谈论这些身体时 这些体力

活动

我们将用于标记停止 ng 点，

所以我希望这可以帮助您

反复考虑进出，但是

这些遵循与介词本身遵循的相同规则，

因此我们

通常

在谈论进入或

退出

建筑物或其他位置时使用这些 例如，他

走进银行或他们跑出

警察局，

因此我们可以使用这些相同的动词，这些动词与

与

运动相关的身体动作以及

当我们与

我们谈论的从一个位置移动

到该位置之外的人一起使用进出时

相反，从一个位置的外部移动

到该位置的内部，所以进出

遵循介词规则，所以

我希望这对你有帮助，

非常感谢这个问题，好吧

，这就是我本周所拥有的一切，

谢谢 一如既往地发送

大家好，欢迎回来询问艾丽西亚

你在哪里的每周系列 问我

问题，我回答

也许好吧让我们开始你的

第一个问题本周第一个问题来自

法比奥你好

法比奥法比奥说你好艾丽西亚我想

知道这个表达的意思

每隔一天我也可以每隔一周说一次

吗

其他年份每隔一小时一分钟

非常感谢，

是的，每隔一天指的是一个

活动时间表

，其中你一天做一件事

，然后第二天你把它取下来

，第二天你不做这个活动

一天你做

活动

然后第二天你不做

活动所以这是

一天一天休息的模式我们称之为

每隔一天的

时间表所以是的你可以用一个替换

这个表达式

中的天 其他时间段，因此您可以

每隔一年

或每隔一小时每隔

一分钟

说一次

所以是的，你可以用它来

每隔一分钟

表达一些东西 这种一天一天的休息

模式

我希望这能帮助你谢谢你

的问题好吧让我们继续你的

下一个

问题下一个问题来自

克林顿嗨克林顿

克林顿说当我遇到一个

试图和我说一种语言的人时我

不明白

我应该用英语说什么来回答

你可以说我不会说那种语言

所以你可以说我不会说西班牙语

或者我不会说荷兰语或者我不会说

中文你可以 说点很

直接的喜欢 你不必

说对不起，我想如果你愿意，你

可以，但

在这种情况下你不必真的道歉，

直接说吧，我不会说那种

语言，你可以通过

以下方式跟进此声明 说

你会说英语还是你说

你

的母语这样的

话 英语或者你说

西班牙语还是你的母语

只是为了回答我不会说

那种语言

我希望这对你有帮助谢谢你

的问题好吧让我们继续

你的下一个问题下一个问题来自

sanju hi sanju

sanju 说嗨，艾丽西亚和团队，

你们好吗？

‘正在做这个

对某事的渴望似乎

比实际情况要强烈得多，

我们倾向于在随意的情况下使用它，

例如我很想看那

部电影，

或者我们一直很想去那家新

餐厅，

所以我们表达了对某事的强烈渴望，

并且 它通常

是一种休闲的东西，

另一方面，在竞争激烈的情况下使用

它，所以你可能会在运动中听到它

，你可能会在商业中听到它，

当两个或更多人试图获得时，你可能会在政治中听到它

相同的结果或

相同的结果，我们

可以用 vying for different from 来表达

这方面的例子可能是

两个候选人正在争夺

市长的职位，

或者所有的孩子都在

争夺老师的注意力，

所以争夺某事意味着积极

参与

试图赢得某事 ng 但这是

一个很长的表达方式，所以我们说

vying for the base verb is to vi to vi

for something 所以这就是

表达

对某事强烈渴望的死去和表达对某事的渴望的

争夺之间的区别，

但我们 谈论这个以及

期望的

结果期望的结果不是

期望的行动所以我希望这对

你有帮助非常感谢这个问题

好吧让我们继续我们的下一个问题

下一个问题来自

动物处女你好动物动物说

挂起或挂起

偷偷摸摸 或偷偷摸摸 是的，这是一个关于

动词过去时形式的问题，所以第一个

挂起或挂起

有问题的动词在这里是挂起挂起的动词，

所以我们应该使用挂起还是

应该使用挂起作为过去时

态 大多数答案 案例是你应该

使用挂

例如他把一张照片挂在

墙上，

或者

当你谈论

把东西放在墙上或穿

衣服的动作时我们把外套挂在壁橱里 na hanger

please use hang 过去时 hang

hanged 另一方面有一个非常

具体的用法，

当我们谈论一个被绞死的人时，我们使用 hanged

所以绞刑是一种

非常具体的

死刑类型，其中 绳子系

在一个人的脖子上

，绳子是用来结束这个人的

生命的，

当我们想谈论这个

时，我们

用过去时绞死，就像罪犯被

绞死或数百年前很多

人因犯罪而被绞死，

所以绞死是 在这个特定的情况

下，在动词的所有其他情况下使用

现在时，

请使用挂起来指代动词的过去

形式，

所以这在含义上是一个非常明显的区别，

当你说话时请记住它

当你也写

关于你关于

动词偷偷过去时形式的其他问题时

，有

两种形式，今天仍然有两种形式实际上

最初最初是

根据 merriam-webster 我的青睐

根据 merriam-webster 的字典，snucked

是这个动词的原始过去时形式，但在 1800 年代后期

左右

开始使用 snuck，所以今天我们仍然

使用它们实际上是

snuck 和偷偷摸摸的一些例子，然后

可能就像

我偷偷溜进 昨晚办公室很晚，

或者她偷偷在附近溜达，

这样你就

可以使用它们了 问题

好吧，让我们继续你的下一个问题

下一个问题来自

anathu shaji 嗨，anathu 说，

你能解释一下

ever since 和 since then 之间的区别

吗？

所以让我们来看看

我去年大学毕业的几个例句，从那时起

我就在一家科技公司工作，

自从我大学毕业后

我曾在一家科技公司工作，所以这些

句子传达

了演讲者大学毕业的相同想法，并且从那时

起演讲者一直在一家科技公司工作，

所以我们可以使用

从那时起和从那时起来

描述差异

是 从那以后倾向于

在第一个例句中遵循过去时态陈述

这是我去年大学毕业

所以我们在那里有一个简单的路径时态

陈述

从那时起指的

是上一句中描述的时间点

所以在这种情况下

去年以来我

在上一句中提到的那个时间点，

所以这是一个常见的位置，因为

从那时

起，但是在这个例子

中可以在句子中占据几个不同的位置，

我把它

放在简单的过去时动作

之前 因为我大学毕业所以我们可以

把它放在

你可能看到的动作

之前 在一家科技公司工作，

但在这些情况下，你可能已经

注意到，在这个例子中，

我已经删除了我已经省略了具体

的时间点，所以

自从

我在一家科技公司工作以来，我没有说我去年大学毕业，

你 可能会听到有些人删除了那个

特定的时间点，

我想这只是演讲者的偏好，但从

那以后可以采取很多不同的

立场，我们

从那时起就看不到这些不同的

立场，所以从那以后再次指代

特定的点

从那以后的

时间意味着我刚刚提到的那个时间点，所以我们必须

有那个我们从那时起就没有那个，所以

这意味着我们不必参考一个

特定的时间点，这就是为什么

有时在过去时态陈述中

不将其与特定时间点配对使用听起来很自然

，从那时起您可能会听到人们说，

在这种情况下，是的，您必须包括

过去的时间点，但这是

区别

在于句子中

表达的位置以及过去时态陈述

与结果的关系，所以我希望这对

你有帮助非常感谢这个问题

好吧这就是我

本周的ask alicia一集，我很快就会

再见到您

再见，大家好，欢迎

回来询问alcia您所在的每周系列

问我问题，我回答，

宝贝，好吧，让我们来回答你

本周的第一个问题，本周的

第一个问题来自

henry laurent cossaci 你好，亨利亨利说我曾经

听过这个 conver 电视连续剧中的内容

嘿，我们少了多少 b 18

30 美分我的问题是

表达

我们少了多少，常用

英语口语来描述这种

情况，

谢谢来自印度尼西亚的爱

有足够的

东西

无论如何这在美国英语中是一个非常常见的表达方式

，我们在许多不同的

语法形式中使用这个短句，

所以在一个问题中，我们短

了多少意味着

我们在陈述中需要多少或更多这个东西

可能会听到我少了 3

美元，

或者他少了大约 150 美元，

或者我们少了几把椅子

大约 150 美元

，如果数字或

金额

在 short 一词之后，您可以选择包括，如果数字在 short

一词之前，

您不应该包括购买，所以我少了

3 美元，我是 150 美元的

空头 等等，如果数字后面跟着短，他

短

了大约 150，你可以包括它，

但你不必像第三个

例句中那样

我们缺少几把椅子，所以我们

不必包括购买，但我们可以

我们是卖空的 几把椅子也是

完全正确的，

所以这取决于你，我们也可以

用这种方式使用 short 来表示

作为动词不够，因为调酒师

在我的饮料上短路了我，

这意味着调酒师没有将

足够的

液体倒入我的饮料中，或者我 认为

收银员在我的零钱上做空了我，这

意味着

我认为收银员没有给我

足够的零钱，

所以你也可能会听到这个用作动词

的方式，

所以是的，再次回答你的问题，这

是一个非常常见的表达方式，它非常

有用

并且 这意味着没有足够的

东西并认识到这一点，

并就应该提供什么或仍然需要什么提出问题或

陈述

，

所以我希望这能帮助你

非常感谢这个问题

让我们继续 你的下一个问题 下一个

问题来自

nilo pena flor 你好 nilo

nilo 说你好 alicia 我对妥协这个词感到困惑

它有几个含义

你能解释一下并在一些句子中使用它吗

确定我谈到了

妥协和协议之间的区别 最近的

一集 ask alicia

so let’s refresh there to begin a

折衷指的

是你达成的协议是

你在稍微改变你的计划后达成的协议，

所以甲方和

乙方对某件事有不同的想法，

他们会稍微改变他们的想法，并且

达成协议，

这样协议就被称为妥协，

所以这

不是一个人的想法，也不是蜜蜂的想法，但

他们

共同努力寻找解决方案，所以这是一个

妥协，这是一个名词，

我们也可以将其用作动词来表示

妥协的

意思 在

稍微更改

两个计划后

达成协议 e 作为动词，表示

揭露

或揭示

本应隐藏的事物或

揭示本应是秘密的事物，

因此您可能听说过它

在动作电影（如詹姆斯邦德

电影或任务不可能的

电影）中以这种方式使用 你可能会听到一个句子

，例如

詹姆斯邦德已经被泄露，这

意味着

有人意识到詹姆斯邦德

间谍在某个地方，他应该

被隐藏起来，

他应该像一个秘密

特工一样，没有人应该

知道他

但是有人了解了他 有人

揭露了

詹姆斯·邦德 他不再安全 所以

以这种方式妥协是指某事，或者在

这种情况下，某人

被暴露或透露了

应该是机密的，

应该是秘密的

我们也可以将妥协用作动词 用

这种方式

来谈论沟通 这可以

像电话

文书工作 官方文件等等

在一个例句中你可能会听到

像总统这样的东西 t 的电话被

泄露，这意味着例如

，不应该

听电话的人

听到了私人信息，或者

通话中的信息可能被分享

给了不应该

拥有信息的人，

因此被泄露或被

泄露为 在我的詹姆斯邦德

例句中，你可以看到这个

动词通常以被动形式使用，

因为我们并不

总是知道信息的接收者

我们并不总是知道

暴露某事或透露某事的人，

所以有这个意思

正如我所说的妥协，

当您谈论与某人达成协议时，您通常会在被动句结构中看到这一点，

您可能会

更多地

看到

它 做出妥协你通常

会

在类似

的表达方式中看到妥协，

所以我希望这能给你带来

好处 介绍我们使用妥协的不同方式，

特别

是揭示或暴露

秘密的特殊含义

我希望这能帮助你感谢一个

有趣的问题好的

让我们继续你的下一个问题下一个

问题

来自 kunduzai

我希望我说过 对，你好 kundazai kundazai 说你好，艾丽西亚，

我的问题是关于这个陈述的

，说

我不喜欢加动词在 ing 形式中是否符合语法

我们如何以正确的方式使用它在

什么情况下我可以使用它

谢谢你的回答 是的

，说

我不喜欢 ing 形式的动词是符合

语法的 完全语法 完全自然

完全正确

你可以说我不想

看电影，或者

我今晚不想出去，或者我

不想 觉得现在就这样做，

所以这是一个非常随意的表达方式

，这意味着

我没有心情进行

我们通常在这个时候

或现在或今晚使用它的活动，这听起来

像是你不想要的事情 o 现在做，

但也许你想在将来做，

就像我今晚不想看电影一样，

你应该

知道这是一个非常

随意的表达方式，我们倾向于

与非常亲密的朋友或

家人一起使用 所以与我们有非常

密切关系的人

我不建议您在

工作或任何其他专业

情况下使用

它，因为听起来您

对该活动的评价很低，就像

我现在不想这样做

所以这听起来像是一种基于情感

或感觉的决定，所以不要

在专业场合使用这个，但是是的，

你绝对可以用这个表达

来谈论你通常不想

在特定时间点做的事情，所以我

希望 这可以帮助你

谢谢你的问题好吧让我们

继续我们的下一个问题

下一个问题来自艾哈迈德你好

艾哈迈德艾哈迈德说

阿黛尔说但没关系

她

为什么说不要用它是的就标准而言

就像正确的

英语，这在语法上是不正确的，

但是

许多歌手喜欢使用这种

技术上

不正确的语法来听起来有点酷

或听起来有点粗糙，

所以是的，像标准英语一样的句子

应该是，但这没关系，

但出于各种原因

在这种情况下包括句子节奏或歌曲节奏，或者只是为了

听起来有点酷或粗暴，在这种情况下，

歌手或艺术家可能会选择故意

使用正确的语法，但

如果你想跟着唱也没关系

歌曲很棒，您应该使用与阿黛尔相同的词

，

但是如果您在说话并且想

表达这个想法，请确保使用

正确的语法，但这

实际上是正确的表达方式并不重要，所以

我希望 这对你有帮助 谢谢你

的问题 好的，我们的

下一个问题

下一个问题来自 rachel 你好

razel

rassel 说你好 alicia 我的问题是

种族和民族之间的区别是什么很好的问题

非常广泛的答案，所以对于一个非常

笼统的答案，

您可以将种族视为与

您的生物学有关，因此这是

您

无法改变的事情，您的种族是

您与生俱来

的东西，基本上我们认为

与种族有关 种族，或者

一个人的皮肤颜色

或面部特征的形状

等等，所以我们

不能改变种族

另一方面，就像你的文化身份

一样，什么是传统，你的

共同价值观

是什么？ 社区 让

你的社区成为什么样的东西

举例说明差异

是印度裔美国人，所以这就是

这里的区别，所以你的种族是

你无法改变的

种族对某些人来说可能会随着时间而改变，

所以这是对这个问题的一个非常笼统的

答案这是一个非常大的讨论

还有一个非常有趣的问题，

所以非常感谢这个有趣的

问题，

好吧，这就是我本周的所有内容，

本周的问艾丽西亚，我

下周再见，再见，你的英语听力水平如何，

首先你会看到一个图像并听到一个

问题

接下来是一个简短的对话仔细听

，看看你是否能正确回答

我们 最后会告诉你答案

一个男人和一个女人在说话

男人什么时候

画 你每天画吗 是的 从早上 9 点

到晚上 7 点 每天 9 到 7

个小时 嗯 是的

这是我的 工作

男人什么时候画

一个男人和一个女人在

说话 从这个测验

让我们知道如果你有任何问题

下次见

大家好我的名字是艾丽西亚在这

节课中我将谈论一些

英语问候和他们的回应

这节课已经准备好呈现

美式英语问候让我们

开始吧 好的，

我首先想从我们使用的

最基本和最

随意的

问候开始 无需担心

特殊反应只需使用

您

听到对方打招呼时使用的同一个词，所以

这两个随意

友好的 hey 和 hi 很常见，我们

与朋友

同事同事使用这些很好

用 任何吨 当天的

我也把你也包括在这里你很随意

可能不会在工作

中使用这个但是你可以和你的朋友、你的

亲密朋友和你的家人一起使用它如果

你喜欢

你所以当有人说嘿时说

嘿或 如果有人用 hi 只是回应

hi 听起来比

hey

hey 听起来更僵硬一点 hey 听起来更轻松

一点 更友好一点

yo 真的很放松 超级随意

你可能会听到年轻人使用 yo 比

老年人多得多 这里的下一个表达是

你好你好你可以用你好来问候

你

面对面遇到的人这很好，但我们通常

用

你好作为标准的电话问候

，当我们拿起电话

你好你可以说我的名字或

你好这

是或你好艾丽西亚 举例来说，

你可以在电话中使用 hello 我们倾向于在电话

中使用

uh 它可以使用

在日常生活中面对面打招呼是正确的，

但听起来可能

不如

hi o 友好 r 另一个问候我稍后会谈到

所以你好对电话有好处通常

我会建议使用你好

电话

好的然后让我们去这三个

问题我们可以用相同的响应来回答这三个

问题

让我们先阅读他们的问题

一个

你好吗 你会听到以

母语为母语的人 减少

很多 这个问题的发音不是很清楚

你好吗 但我们会说

你好吗 你好吗 听起来

要短得多 你好吗 而

不是你 你

好吗 你好吗 答案 好 你好

你 这是标准回答

另一个问题

进展如何 进展如何 进展

如何 这意味着你的生活

进展如何 进展

如何 进展如何 换句话说，你的生活怎么样

你我们可以用同样的回应 我的生活

很顺利

一切都很好 所以去的意思就像

发生

了 你的生活怎么样了 你的生活怎么样

了 你的生活

怎么

样 w

are you just a little variation we added

do here how are you doing just like

how are you are reduce to how are you we

can make this

how you how you doing 所以你会注意到我使用了

这个撇号标记撇号是这里的

破折号

所以它会发出短促的声音 我删除了

做

你如何做 你如何做 你如何

做 听起来更随意

，更常用，你

好吗 你又如何做 答案很好

，

所以我在这里选择了好，因为 这是

对这些问题最常见的回答

你可以说很好 你可以说很好 你可以说

还不错 如果你

给出否定的回答，所有这些都很好 例如，如果你

说不太好，或者我感觉不舒服，或者我很不舒服

真的很累，或者我很不高兴，你

应该准备

好解释，这就像你正在

开始一个对话，

这是

对方可能会说

好的标准反应，然后他们会继续他们的

下一部分对话，

所以这些是 一些聆听点 s

you how are you changed to how are you

and how are you doing 改变你的

行为方式

更自然一点 更

友好一点

比干草或高或其他问候更正式一点，

我稍后会谈到所以

早上好

用于早上非常常用

的工作当你

到达办公室，你看到你

的同事我们用

早安说 你好早上第一件事

下午好在

工作场所

或可能在类似客户或客户

关系的

情况下更常用，例如，如果我正在上课

并且我看到我的学生在教室里我

来到教室

我 向我的学生说下午好，

因为

那里有点距离，

晚上好，晚上好，

就像正式活动一样开始我们可以

用晚上好开始正式活动，

我们 可以在餐厅使用它，

例如在

客户关系中再次使用你可以

与

朋友和同事一起使用我想，但这

听起来可能有点

太客气了，晚上好，所以这没有

错，

但听起来有点正式，

我们会 可能晚上和朋友在一起

，我们可能只会

说嘿或你好，或者你好吗

，这听起来更友好一些所以要

回复这些

只是再次重复我在

这里用星号标记了

如果有人对你说早安就重复 你

可以说早上好，

我们在这里做的其他事情是我们删除

好，所以这是为了让它更随意一点

，我们会像我在这里做的那样删除

这个撇号

会去掉这个 g 声音并

在这里添加一个撇号 下午更难处理，

但与其说早上好，不如说

清楚地表达所有内容，

我们经常会说好，说警告，

所以那里没有 g 声音 mornin i

以

n 声音结束，或者只是下午或

晚上 所以这听起来更友好

，实际上并不那么礼貌

所以如果有人像早上一样对你说这个，

你可以说

早上你也可以使用 g 声音

这取决于你选择

有些人问

晚安和晚安有什么区别

晚上好 区别

在于

晚上好是问候的一种方式

晚上好是一种说再见的方式

所以当你说 祝你有美好的一天

晚上好

你实际上是在说再见 所以这

就是 不同如果你想打招呼

请使用晚安如果你

想说再见使用

祝

你晚安也请小心你会注意到晚安不在这里

晚安也是一种说再见的方式

或特别喜欢孩子喜欢

从父母到孩子，

一种表达方式

就像一天在睡觉前结束，所以

在我们睡觉前也会使用晚安，

所以再次购买，

所以请注意不要

晚安或晚安，

这些都是问候 s we can use good

night 是一个更好的问候

它是对你的正确问候 所以

请使用

晚安 不要使用晚安 好吧 让我们

继续下一

对 呃 这些是相关的 你一开始可能

不知道 但是呃 怎么

了怎么了 这是一个

让人们非常紧张的问题 我

想我

该如何回答所以只是回答

不多 不多 这是标准答复 就像

好 是这里的标准答复 使用

不多来回答发生了什么 发生了什么事

不多 what’s up nothing 也

没事 what’s up nothing nothing

or again 我们会经常去掉这个 g sound

nothing

or nothing 这样听起来更随意

所以你怎么了 没什么你什么都

没有 其他人可能会再次说

同样的话

如果 您选择使用

诸如“

哦，我今天过得很糟糕”之

类的词，或者您开始解释困难的情况，或者

您

暗示发生了不好的事情，您

可能应该准备好

谈论那

件事，所以您没有太多 没有什么

是一个非常典型的问候

实际上还可以，所以这个 sup

这个 sup 来自 what’s up 它

来自这个

sup what’s up

所以这是一种非常随意的方式来表达

What’s up what’s up 很随意

这是更随意的 sup

所以你可以 不多说，或者你可以

用 sub 回复 sup，

这样你就可以再次使用这个非常亲密的

朋友 sup

sup 就是这样，这就像打个招呼，

说你有

什么新鲜事，但是真的

很快，真的很短

sup sup 好吧，让我们继续前进

一些更特殊的问候语，

取决于

你可能需要向

很久没见的人打招呼这些是

你可以用来做

第一个的表达方式我很久没见过你或者我没见过你

很久没见过你

了 已经有一段时间了 有一段

时间

它实际上是

它已经有一段时间自从我上次见到你以来已经有一段时间了我上次

见到你已经有一段时间

了但

我们只是说已经有一段时间了我们放弃

了那个更好的最后一部分

再次见到你或者很

高兴再次见到你很高兴再次见到你所以这些都是

我们可以在很长时间没有见到另一个人时使用的问候

所以我们如何回答这个我们可以回答

所有这些 使用相同的模式

首先同意是的，已经很长时间了，

所以

你可以再次使用这些表达方式，你知道

的 然后询问后续情况 How are

things how are things you can use this

like how are or it

going

how are what are you life

事情怎么样 答案是

好的 事情怎么样 事情怎么样 忙

一切都好吗 都很普通 很

标准

如果您想稍微提高语法水平，请使用其他人的回应

您最近过得怎么样，

最近在做什么，所以您会

注意到这里

的语法与

我们在这里讨论过的这些表达方式非常相似

你好吗 这就像一个过去

完美的方式来问你好吗，

你现在好吗

，自从我上次见到你以来，你好吗？

自从我上次见到你到

现在，你好吗？我们就是这样 可以

问

同样的事情

你最近在做什么

所以换句话说，自从我上次见到

你

到现在为止你做了什么你

一直在做什么

询问

自从你上次见到那个人以来那段时间的那些活动所以这

会根据你的活动而改变

你可以说嗯例如这个 一个

你做了什么你可以回答 呃

，

例如，

如果你没有特别的消息，什么都没有，

你什么都没做，只是工作，

所以没关系，如果你有特别的消息，

你可以说

你知道我结婚了，或者我搬家了，或者我

找到了一份新工作。

为这个回答这个问题的最佳方式

你怎么样回到这个好

你非常非常简单的答案是

最好的

好吧让我们继续两种

特别的青春问候然后是第一种

很高兴终于见到你

太好了 终于见到你了，

所以你会看看我是否最终在这里删除

这成为一个非常常见的问候

很高兴见到你很高兴见到

你

但如果你遇到一个你

钦佩或你真正尊重

或你真的很兴奋的人

像粉丝一样认识那个人

他们是著名的音乐家、名人

、艺术家

或运动员 例如你很

高兴见到那个人

你可以说终于见到你真是太好了

这

向听众表明你 真的

在看 期待与他们会面

如果有人对你说这句话，或者如果你

和某人一起使用这个词，

典型的回应是谢谢你

很高兴见到你，所以他们

通常会说谢谢，

或者真的 很高兴见到你也很高兴

所以这就像任何其他

第一次见到某人的第一次问候一样

很高兴见到你

也很高兴见到你也很高兴

另一个你可能

会在与朋友交谈和

见面时听到 新人，

尤其是如果你

在另一个国家学习或工作，

表达方式是我听说过

很多关于你的事

我听说过很多关于你的事

有时我从同事

那里听到了很多关于你的事

，或者我从室友那里听到了很多

关于你的事，

所以使用 from here

显示该人从哪里获得

信息，

因此可能包括也可能不包括在内 我

在 典型的反应真的是我希望

没什么不好

或者我希望你没有听到任何不好的事情

所以这是一种

非常随意的回应方式我希望

没什么不好的

意思我希望你没有听到

任何

关于我的坏话所以这

表明 演讲者已获得信息 已

获得

有关他们正在会面的人的信息，

但这仍然是第一次与

该人会面，

因此如果您听到有关某人的负面信息，这往往用于

演讲者听到正面

信息的

情况

不推荐使用

这个表达方式

这有一种积极的感觉 我

听过很多关于你的

事 听起来很开心很开心

所以你可以说

真的 我希望没什么不好或我希望它是

好的

所以这是一种友好的方式

与已经

了解您的一些信息的人开始对话，

所以这是一些

非常常见的

英语问候的快速介绍，我希望这

对您有帮助，我希望您有

一些 id

意见或想要练习问候，

您学习英语的东西

非常感谢您观看本课程，

下次再见，

大家好，我的名字是艾丽西亚

课程我要谈谈

及时和准时之间的区别

让我们开始让我们从及时开始

我们用这个表达来指代

有截止日期或完成时间有限的活动

让我们

看一些例子 所以我们可以看到

如何首先使用这个短语

he made it to the station in time

for his train so made 这意味着就像

能够到达 他能够到达

车站 他到达了车站

time for his train 这个

在名词短语 his train 之前的时间使用

向我们表明

，在这种情况下，他能够

在他的火车的最后期限之前到达车站，

所以他的火车有一个

特定的

时间，他有一个特定的时间段

能够赶上火车 启用

能够赶上他的

火车，所以及时使用

向我们表明他能够做到这一点，

我们在这里有一个肯定的

句子，所以他到了他的火车

他能够赶上他的火车

让我们看看 在另一个表达或

该表达的另一个示例中，

我按时完成工作以观看足球比赛

有时间看足球

比赛，所以足球比赛

有固定的时间

，我可以看足球比赛的有限时间段

我在

允许我看足球比赛的时间点完成工作，

所以我完成 ed 工作，

还有时间看足球比赛，

所以我们

用 time 来表明我仍然能够

做那件事

在这里它是一个动词短语让我们

继续下一个

例句 this one is

anegative she didn’t t 及时到达考试

中心

参加考试在这里参加考试我们看到

它是另一个

动词短语及时参加考试所以

及时做这个动作所以这

就是我们在这里看到

的动作 这些例句中的每一个

项目名词短语或动词

活动在结束时间之后表达

所以在这种情况下及时参加考试

但请记住我指出这是一个

否定

她没有到达考试

中心 参加考试的时间意味着

她没有

足够的

时间到达中心参加考试，所以

参加考试有

最后期限

然而她 没有

及时到达 她没有在

限定的时间段内或

截止日期之前到达，因此她没有

参加考试让我们继续另一个

负面的例子，他们没有及时

赶到音乐厅

参加演出，所以又一次 在这里

，我们及时看到

在这种情况下，它是一个名词短语，所以我们

看到

这是无法

发生的事情，

我们知道它无法发生，

因为这种否定，

他们没有得到手段到达 或者来

他们没有及时到达音乐厅

，因为

这意味着他们

在演出开始之前无法到达，

或者在演出进行的有限时间内

他们没有及时到达，

所以我们使用 及时显示这些

截止日期，或者我们

无法在有限的

时间内做某事，我们必须完成

该活动，

我们也可以在问题中使用这个表达，

例如你会准时到达

办公室 为您的会议 ere we see get

again

这意味着到达或来，

您是否会及时到达办公室

参加

会议 预定

有一些计划

，演讲者正在询问听众

听众是否

有足够的时间或在这个有限的

时间段内到达以参与此活动，

因此我们可以在问题中使用它，

我也在整个例句中指出

这些名词短语和动词短语是

我们

在时间之后看到的，所以你会注意到，

当我们使用第四时间时，我们会在

第四时间后面加上我们的名词短语，所以我们

及时看到他的火车或

节目的时间，以便您的

会议及时所以

当我们想谈论一个动词时，这些都是名词短语，

但是

就像一个动作，

我们用动词短语做某种动作，动词

是不定式

形式，所以我们在这里看到

了观看 socc 的时间 er game 所以这里是我的

动词不定式 in time to

watch the football

game in time to take the test 所以

动词的不定式在那里

所以当你及时使用时请

务必考虑这两点是不是

名词短语

是动词短语 你在说

好吧 记住这一点 让我们继续学习

本课的第二部分

准时准时 准时

这里的意思是指

在预定的指定方式发生的活动

因此，准时

意味着或者我们知道，当我们听到准时的消息时

，过去已经制定了时间表，

因此我们决定了一些事情，

例如交通或会议

时间表等课程时间表

这些类型的时间表非常

常用

于准时等等 时间是指

在预定的时间发生的事情，是

指

有

截止日期的活动，或者有一个有限的时间

段来

完成它让我们看一些

我们如何使用的例子，

然后fi 首先，

她准时到达办公室，

所以这里是什么动作？动作是什么？

她到达过去式她

准时到达办公室，这向我们表明

她在

预定

时间或如期到达办公室这是另一种

方式 说

她按时到了办公室 她

在预定的时间到了

让我们再看一个 我们

今天按时完成工作 所以我们今天按时完成工作 这

是另一种说法 我们

今天按时完成工作 我们今天没有按时完成工作，

我稍后会回到这样的点，

但按时

显示它已安排好另一个例子

这个否定

的游戏没有按时开始游戏

没有按时开始 显示

比赛可能

迟到了比赛没有按时开始

比赛，或者比赛原定于

下午 3 点开始，但比赛在 3 点 30 分开始

，

例如在这种情况下，我们可以

说比赛

没有 不要按时开始 一个负面的

让我们看看另一个负面我没有

按时交作业

我没有按时交作业

所以在这里我没有交作业

但是这显示准时这向我们表明

行动已经完成它是 只是

迟到了，所以我没有

在预定的时间按时

交作业，换句话说，作业是 10 点到期的，例如，

我

在 10 点 30 或 11 点交作业，

所以这句话我没有交 我的

家庭作业意味着行动没有

发生

会议 这

是您可能会听到的内容，

例如秘书或助理

或其他人报告

另一个人的活动 他准时

参加下午 3 点的会议 这是一个句子

，表示

在座的人 他或她 他们这个

人

他们的活动 今天的

日子 已经使他们

能够在未来准时到达现在

这是一种非常奇怪的说法我

知道，

但这意味着这个人

一整天都在做很多事情

，所以现在他们知道他们有这个

下午 3 点

会议，但他们一直在做所有这些

其他事情，现在

他们还可以，他们仍然可以

在下午 3 点参加这个会议，这就是

这个呃

暗示他准时参加下午 3 点会议，

所以这通常是

使用的东西 喜欢忙碌的人来描述

忙碌的人的日程安排

他准时为此她准时

所以

就像你可能听到它用于像

总统或总理一样

有一个非常非常忙碌或

疯狂的日程安排

你可能会听到人们报告 关于

那个人的日程安排和那个人

即将举行的活动，

可以这样说，我们可以在一个问题中使用它，正如我们

在 time 内看到的那样

，例如，会议将按时

完成

，会议将

在 ti 结束 我的

意思是会议将

在预定的时间按计划完成，

因此您可以看到我们使用 on time 来

指代

预定的喜欢提问和

发表

关于预定事情的陈述我们使用 time 来

指代

完成行动的最后期限 i 提到了一点，

虽然

我想我在这里谈过了，但我们

今天按时

完成了工作

今天及时为其他事情工作，

所以当你及时使用时，你需要解释你在使用时

能够做或不能做的事情，当你

准时

使用时，你’

指的是

过去安排的一些行动，因此您

不必总是

解释您正在谈论的具体事情，

例如，她

准时到达办公室，

有一些时间表，或者她每天

开始工作 例如，上午 9 点 00 分的 rk

准时，当您及时谈论时，将

它包含在您的句子中可能是个好主意，

因为我

偶尔会在对话中这样做，当

活动很明显时，母语人士会

放弃它

及时，但您并不总是需要

按时将其包含

在内 如果您有任何问题或

意见，或者如果您想练习

大家好 欢迎回来了解你的

动词 我的名字是 alicia 在这一

集中，我们将讨论

动词

push 让我们开始

吧 让我们看看

动词 push

的基本定义 基本定义是使用

武力将某物从你身边移开 通常的

例子我们把车推出

车库

他把椅子推到过道

让我们看看这个

动词pre的变位 sent

push

pushs past push past 分词

pushprogressive push

现在让我们谈谈

这个动词

的一些附加含义 第一个附加含义是

用有力的例子说服某人 我的老板正在推动

我工作更多时间

不要让他们把你推向坏境

决定所以在这两个

例句中，

我们看到有人被说服做某事的情况，

所以当我们使用 push 时，听起来

情况中的对象

不想做

正在讨论的事情，所以在 第一个

例句，这意味着某人的

老板

正在推动更多的加班工作，

所以老板想要更多的加班，但是

涉及这种情况的人

不想随着时间的推移加班，

老板试图说服

他们，他们很友善 使用武力，所以我们

用

推来谈论老板

没有身体上

我希望推这个人，但老板

用试图说服的话来推 在第二个例句中试图

用

强有力的词来说服

对方加班

不要让他们把你逼入一个错误的

决定，就像

在这种情况下有一些外部力量试图说服听众做出

决定一样

但这个决定对听众来说可能是一个糟糕的决定

，

所以换句话说，这意味着不要让

他们说服

你或不要让他们说服你做出

对你不利的选择，不要让他们把

你推向一个坏的 决定

动词 push 的第二个附加含义是

做很多广告 做很多广告

例子 我们最近真的在推我们的 pdf

备忘单

我们应该在

贸易展上推哪些产品 关于我们的 pdf

备忘单的小玩笑 呃

完全 我的笑话他们没有告诉我

把它放进去，但无论如何，

所以当我说我们最近一直在推动我们的 pdf

备忘单时，这意味着我们

一直在宣传该产品

我们一直在宣传我们的 pdf 备忘单

床单很像在我们的直播

、我们的网站上以及

在我们的社交媒体上的任何地方，这意味着我们在

做很多广告，所以这

就是我们希望

人们看到的东西 我们希望人们检查

那个

项目 第二个例句 是一个

问题，我们想

在展会上推哪些产品，这

意味着什么是焦点广告，

或者我们真正

希望人们看到的项目是什么，我们想

尽可能多地展示

我们想在展会上

推哪些产品 贸易展 好的，让我们

继续第三个附加

含义 第三个附加含义是尝试

超越某些东西 让我们看一些

示例 第一个

马拉松运动员推动

他们身体

的极限工程师真的在推动

软件的功能

所以在这些示例中 我们看到

的句子有某种

限制，就像在第一个例子中它是

身体

限制，所以马拉松运动员试图推动

他们身体的极限，这

意味着身体有一些稳定性

像这样的限制意味着身体可以做

这个量所以

在这种情况下它是马拉松跑所以

也许身体可以一次跑

三到四个小时

例如身体可以以这种

速度跑我不知道

这是很多所以 马拉松运动员试图

突破这个极限意味着他们试图超越

这个极限，这就是

我们在这里看到的图像，

所以马拉松运动员试图突破

他们身体的极限试图

超越他们身体的极限

第二个例句是 相同，

但我们谈论的是软件

功能，

所以这里软件的功能

是限制，所以工程师

正在推动软件的功能，

所以现在软件可以做到这一点，但

也许工程师正在更新，

正在做出改变

，他们正在 试图超越

软件的当前限制，所以

这可能是一个很好的视觉效果，我想对于

动词 push 的这个含义，

好吧，让我们看看第四

个动词 push 的第四个附加含义

是接近一个数字来接近一个

数字

让我们看一些例子，

今年销售额达到数百万

爷爷正在推动 90。所以

当我们

想要表达一个高数字

时，我们会使用这个。 低数字我们

没有真正使用

push push 听起来你正在接近

一个重要的

里程碑，所以在第一个

例句中，

销售额正在推动数百万，

就像我们将达到

数百万销售额的里程碑，所以这是一个非常

重要的数字

所以我们可以使用 push into which

这听起来像是

我们将要达到数百万

销售额的成就，但 push

听起来有点像这可能

是一场斗争

，所以这就像一个特殊的

成就 这

点第二个例句相似，

但我们看到它随着

年龄增长所以爷爷正在推 90 意味着他

快 90 可能他现在是 89 或者

可能是 88

但他几乎处于 90 岁的水平，

所以这可能 活到 90 岁是一件困难的事情

这听起来像是

一项成就

，所以这听起来

可能是一场斗争，所以我们可以用

推动来指代几乎达到这

一点

我们通常以渐进形式使用它

实际上我们 不要用过去

时或现在时真的 嗯，

我们不会说像他推动或她

推动 90 或类似的东西，我们倾向于

以渐进形式使用它来表示

这种情况正在发生，

现在销售正在推进 百万

爷爷正在推动 90 岁。就像现在

他快 90 岁了。非常有趣，

让我们继续讨论这个动词的一些变体

你的运气意味着

过于努力地去获得更多

你已经拥有的东西，然后

冒着失去你已经拥有的东西的风险，

好吧，让我们看看一些例子，

很难看出

第一个他同意

倒垃圾的例子

我可能不应该碰运气，也

请他

打扫厨房不要碰

运气，部门不太可能再做

任何预算调整，

所以在第一个例句中，他

同意倒垃圾，

就像

演讲者得到的成就是他同意

倒垃圾演讲者也希望这个人

打扫厨房，

但他们认为呃我不应该

碰运气，

这意味着我不应该太努力地

从这个人那里得到更多的东西我 不应该

太努力地从这个人那里得到更多，

因为他可能会辞职并

停止做他最初同意做的任务

所以我希望他打扫厨房是的

但

我会停止我不应该太努力

因为他可能会

辞职 第二个例句

那里发生了一些微妙的

事情 第二个例句说不要

推动你的运气，所以这是一个

建议声明，该部门不太

可能进行

任何预算更改，所以这句话

暗示我们可以猜测 听 呃

已经得到了某种预算更新

或者预算增加

在这种情况下说话的人

建议

不要试图获得更多

换句话说不要试图要求另一个预算

更改或另一个预算更新，

因为如果你问 你可能会丢失

你

已经收到的更新所以不要推你的运气

意味着不要试图要求

更多你可能会失去

你已经获得

的东西动词push的第二个变体

是push around to push around意味着

欺负某人对一个没有意义的人做出卑鄙的行为

没有

理由你只是把他们推来推去

他们更小或者他们没有

你

那么强大，所以你实际上可以在视觉上看到

这就像

在身体上推动某人或

用你的话来推人

例如不要让你的同事推

你

你不应该仅仅

因为他们与你不同就推人

所以推人在大多数情况下可能意味着

使用你的话 s to push people 我

想不出很多情况，除非在像学校这样的

学校

里

，

在大多数情况下，有人会用身体

来推别人 听起来

比另一个人

好，所以不要推人，

换句话说，你应该尝试与其他人平等，

所以这两个例句都向他们展示

了第二个例句你

不应该仅仅

因为他们不同就推人 你的

意思是你不应该仅仅

因为他们的外表或声音方式

或工作或生活的地方或其他任何东西而欺负人

所以你不应该这样做你不应该

推人换句话说你

应该 对人们友善，

所以这些是一些新的方式，

如果您有任何问题或

意见，或者如果您知道

使用词 push 的另一种方式，我希望您可以使用动词 push，请随时

在评论中告诉我们

当然，如果您喜欢该视频，请

不要忘记给我们竖起大拇指并

的其他良好的英语学习工具，

非常感谢 非常感谢您观看这一

集的“了解你的动词”，我们很快就会

再见到你，

再见，

这是我在推动

大家玩得开心，每个人都做得很好，大家

好，欢迎回来了解你的

动词，我的名字是艾丽西亚，在这一

集中，我们要去 谈

动词

收养 让我们开始吧

好吧 让我们从

动词

的基本定义开始

现在让我们来看看

这个动词的变位

s 对于这个动词，第一个

额外的含义

是通常采用和使用

一些新的

例子，她在晚上采用了乐观的

性格，

也许公司应该采用新的

策略，

所以这些句子使用“采用”这个词

，

就像找到新的东西或找到

通常不使用的东西，但

在那种情况下使用它，所以这是一个

相当开放的含义，我知道

所以让我们看第一个例句，以便在第一个

例句中获得更多细节

，我们看到她

采取了

乐观的性格 对于这个晚上，如此

采用的意思是拿

一些东西，并把它用

在新的东西上，

这意味着她通常不一定是

一个乐观的人，但对于

这个晚上，她有一个想法是要有一个

乐观的性格，所以她接受了 她

决定

在晚上变得更乐观，这

意味着这

与她过去的行为有所不同，所以

只有

她决定晚上 乐观 她

在第二

句话中采用了

一种乐观的性格

但是

采用是一种快速而简单的方式来表示

接受类似于采用一个想法

并将这个想法付诸实践

就像采用采用一个想法

以这种方式采用一种策略

让我们看看采用的第二个附加

含义 第二个附加

含义

是接受某些东西并实施它

示例政府采用了一项

新政策

我们采用了建筑师为我们的新家提出的建议，

所以在这里我们看到采用

与第一个附加含义非常相似，

但这意味着有些东西

是

接受，就像有一些外部想法，比如

某种提议

，在某处提交给某个小组的某个人

，然后在 acc 之后被接受

eptance

它被实现了 想法被使用了

就像一个提议 一个新的想法

接受这个想法然后

在第一个例句中使用那个东西 它是

关于政府 政府已经

采用

了新政策 意味着

向政府提出了新政策

政府接受了政策并且

政府 现在正在

使用新政策，所以新政策会

产生影响，新政策有所有

这些不同的阶段，

所以政府采用了新

政策

，这意味着它处于最后阶段，所以现在

这个新

政策就像实际上一样，所以它是 已被

接受，现在

如果它尚未生效，它将生效

在第二个例句中，我们

采用了建筑师对我们新家的建议

我们看到了同样的流程，

所以建筑师

向客户提出了一些想法，

客户接受了这个想法，

建筑师将其付诸实践，

建筑师将其付诸实践，

因此有一些接受和

实施，所以他们

采用了 换句话说，他们

接受了这些想法并将其付诸

实践 下一个附加含义是

承诺关心某事

承诺关心某事

一些例子 我们的社区团体

采用了一个公园

该组织正在采用一条高速公路

并且 计划定期清洁，

因此在这种使用收养时，我们通常不是

在谈论

被收养的人，而是

像这里的示例中那样的地方，它是公园，或者

您可能经常听到高速公路或

其他类型的社区空间，

因此收养 采用该

位置的空间

意味着照顾该位置在许多

情况下

采用公园或采用高速公路或

类似的东西

意味着一个人或组织 ation

支付了一些钱，他们的名字就

与那个地方联系在一起，

但他们也负责

照顾那个地方，所以你可能会

在高速公路上看到这个，就像我记得当我

在加利福尼亚的高速公路上长大时，它会

说

采用高速公路计划 在那里的标志

上，

因此采用高速公路意味着给一些

钱 将您的名字

贴在高速公路的那部分，

然后有责任照顾

高速公路的那部分，

这样可能会有一些社区场所

被人们采用 或者由

城市中的组织进行，

所以有某种名称识别

是的，但也有责任

照顾

它，所以我想它就像收养一个孩子一样，

但我们正在收养一个地方，我们必须

照顾那个地方

确保这个地方是 维护得

很好，本质上对社区来说是安全和有益的，

所以除此之外，您还会看到

收养

用于谈论宠物，这可以

更多地用于谈论 ab 从收容所收养动物，

所以当我们谈论从宠物商店购买宠物时，我们并没有真正使用收养

，

而是收养宠物是

当动物在收容所中时发生的更多情况，就像

动物已经

失去了一样，或者 动物被

虐待过或者

不好或消极的过去经历

有很多原因导致

动物可能在收容所中，

但是来到收容所并

从收容所中选择宠物的人

我们可以使用动词采用来描述

选择的活动 在这种情况下

，将宠物带

回家也是收养宠物

意味着来到庇护所并选择

宠物并将宠物带回家

，并承诺照顾该

宠物，从而喂养宠物清洁宠物，为他们

创造一个安全的

环境 正如我们在基本定义中谈到的那样，宠物也因此

领养可能意味着它可能意味着儿童的位置

，我们也可以使用领养来谈论

宠物以及我们

可以在收容所找到的宠物，太好了，所以我

四个

锚点和五个评估

如果你在第一个月得到这些平方，

你将准备

好在任何语言上取得成功 ge

你设定的目标，今天我们将引导你

完成每

一点 第一个 你学习的

原因 你为什么要学习这门

语言，为什么要考虑你的为什么如此

重要

这里有一个例子，回想你

小时候，你是 试图省钱

你想买的第一件东西是什么

，花了多少钱，

你可能还记得它是什么

，花了多少钱

，因为你知道具体的价格

，

如果不是在 至少你

比你只是说

我想省钱而不考虑特定

目的取得了更大的进步，

如果你

确切地知道你为什么要做某事，

那么就很容易将目标与它联系起来，而且

有各种各样的 学习一门

语言的理由

有旅行 家人朋友喜欢，

或者你生活在一个说这种语言的国家，

所以知道你的理由可以阐明你的

使命

并从一开始就给你动力

现在有些理由

比其他理由更适合考试

如果

你学习的理由很简单，

比如我只想看那种语言的电视，

那么生活在一个说这种语言的国家是你生存的一个强有力的理由 一个强有力的

理由或不一定是

强有力的理由最初有助于激励，

但有充分理由的人

可以而且确实

会失败，而理由不足的人会

成功，这完全取决于个人，

但关键是你需要知道

你为什么要这样做

，那就是 足以让你

迈出第一步 第二点

目标和奖励 一旦你明确了

你的

理由 是时候设定你的目标 如果你

想成功

你的目标不能只是 有一天我想

流利

为什么因为这告诉 您对

如何实现目标或

何时达到流利程度一无所知

您的目标需要小而可衡量的

现实

并有截止日期，以便您可以清楚地

看到需要采取的步骤 e 达到

你的目标，

而不是说我想要流利的

一天，你无法衡量

也无法精确确定目标

，例如

30 个单词或一分钟的对话

，如果你有截止日期，你可以衡量这些目标

下个月你知道你的时间框架

，不像我想

流利

的目标，我想能

说一分钟的目标现在要现实得多

，既然你已经

设定了一个

需要配合的目标，那么奖励呢 奖励你的目标 为什么

奖励

你不应该先努力工作，然后

再担心奖励，

因为奖励是强大的动力，

你应该努力工作，

但努力工作往往没有乐趣，当你长时间回家时，你

需要一些东西来推动你完成

下雨天的

工作

湿透了 你想做的最后一件事

就是打开一本书并开始学习

打开 netflix 或其他东西要容易得多，

但是有奖励会提醒你，如果我

实现了这一点，那么我就明白了，

所以定义什么是 对我来说，

我能得到什么提高你的动力

你有一些期待

，让你度过

不想工作

的时候第三点是一旦你有了目标和奖励，就让你的日常工作

与学习媒介相匹配

你

需要让你的语言学习

融入你当前的生活和日常生活

如何

坐下来写下你

一周中每一天的日程

安排 例如早上 7 点起床 早上 8 点吃早餐

早上 9 点上车 上班 从

上午 9 点

到下午 1 点午餐到 30 点，以此类推，

一周中的每一天都这样做

，这样您就可以看到

适合学习的地方，例如，

如果您早上乘坐公共汽车，您

可以利用这段时间来听我们的音频

课程

为什么做得好 语言学习是一个

全新的例程

如果您不按照现有的

日常例程工作，它可能不会奏效

例如，如果您决定提前一个

小时起床学习

现在您正在添加两个新例程

早起学习一门语言 一次学习 一个已经

够难了，但两个更难

你可能无法按时醒来 你可能无法

起床 你可能会马上重新

入睡 这里的重点是你应该

背负你现有的例程

并使用学习 与您的日常生活相匹配的媒介，

因此不要早起保持

您的日常生活，

而是寻找另一种方式来介绍

语言学习

音乐

将音乐换成语言课程，

如果您乘坐公共汽车或火车，请一起听

如果您通常在晚上阅读并且

可以集中注意力，请查看我们的音频和视频课程 尝试

在所有这些示例中使用教科书 您正在采取

现有的例行程序 并

在第四个点中添加语言学习设置

锚点锚点是

您与一种语言建立的联系，可以提高您的

动力并让您保持依恋或

锚定

于您的 目标，这样您就不会溜走，

那么锚点的示例是什么

，例如，如果您有

说该语言的朋友或亲戚，

并且您在他们周围并且您

接触到您更有可能学习的语言

与以目标语言观看电视节目相同，

您会更多地接触它，

因此您对学习的兴趣自然

会增加 还

投资于教科书或学习

计划 报名参加课程或

能力测试

所有这些都是

连接的锚点 你回到语言

为什么你需要锚点 通常

你学习

语言

的最初原因不像以前那样

有动力 也许你在第一个月就有动力，

但在第五个月就没有了，这就是为什么

有充分理由的人

可能会失败的原因 锚点为您提供了

另一个继续前进并

提高动力

的理由，而且通常我们开始

的原因与我们继续的原因不同

锚点不是您需要

使用的东西 在你的第一个月

学习，

但在第二个月和之后添加它们

将帮助你继续前进

你能想到任何你

可以添加的锚点最后发表评论

第五点是你现在需要

评估

，因为你有目标奖励程序

和定位

点 单独在真空中学习一门语言是不够的

您需要

通过我们的学习计划从母语人士那里获得反馈和课程修正 您可以

与自己的老师一起学习

您也可以对课程发表评论

并从其他人那里获得答案

或 您可以找到自己的导师，

他会评估您的进步

并根据需要纠正您，

所以让我们回顾一下，

作为语言学习者，如果

您想从正确的角度开始，您需要解决五件事，请

澄清您学习的原因

两个设定目标和奖励三个使

您的日常工作与您的学习

媒介相匹配

四个定位点和五个获得

持续评估

所以感谢您观看这一

再见 你是否害怕

在目标语言中犯错误

害怕你永远无法

进行对话或进行演示

或 也许你害怕

这个视频中的其他东西我们将介绍

与语言学习有关的四种恐惧以及如何

克服

它们第一个是我担心我不够好

说

我冻结你是否觉得你

不够好说话

但很多人都可以与这个相关

可能所有语言学习者都

在某些时候感觉到

这是一个很普遍的恐惧这里有一些

技巧来克服它

第一次说话 从第一天开始，练习口语最好的方法

就是练习

口语，

如果你因为

认为自己不够好而退缩，那你就

犯了一个错误

，这就是为什么你没有提高

你需要打开你的 嘴巴然后开始

说话 如果你不确定该说什么

开始说话

考虑

在我们的课程中练习现有的对话

你会得到介绍自己的脚本

进行闲聊 订购食物

表达

意见 如果你正在寻找一些

东西 用于口语

练习 课程将为您提供准确的

台词和对话

我们的第三个技巧 与您自己的

老师一起学习 我们的高级计划

加上高级计划，您将获得真正的

母语人士授课 呃告诉你该

说

什么以及怎么说

开始改进并

看到进步

当你刚开始学习一门新的语言时，这种情况就会消失

流利的感觉

就像一个不可能的目标 有

很多新东西要学习，有很多

方法你可以使用

很容易被所有的选择弄得不知所措

但是你不能让自己

陷入这个陷阱

，你坚持的时间越长，

你的语言技能就会变得越好

，慢慢你就会不再担心

流利程度

，重要的是你投入时间

并继续努力前进，

所以怎么做 你克服了对

永远不会流利的担忧你

如何激励自己继续

首先

设定小的具体目标而不是仅仅

说我想变得流利

你怎么知道你什么时候变得流利

流利很难确定 e

不要为自己制定一个模糊而

难以理解的目标，而是

专注于朝着较小的目标努力

，例如设定目标，例如能够

自我介绍

或进行五分钟的对话，

这是你可以衡量的，

这样你就知道什么时候达到了

如果你设定了可以衡量的目标，流畅度可能很难衡量

你可以跟踪你的进步

这有助于保持你的动力随着

时间的推移

第三个恐惧是我担心如果你害怕你，我

实际上并没有学习或取得进步

‘没有取得

进展 你现在可以做一些事情

首先回顾很多人听到

一个新短语

并认为他们会记住它但

通常不会发生

所以当他们忘记他们已经

了解到他们担心自己没有

学习

或课程不起作用，但

事实是您必须一遍

又一遍地复习才能真正掌握

第二次使用仪表板来跟踪您的

进度

如果数字和数据有帮助

当您跟踪学习时，

请查看我们的仪表板，它会跟踪您的

进度并为您提供动态报告

第三次尝试在网站上进行更难的课程

您可能一开始并不完全理解

，没关系，

您将能够在学习所有

课程后 提供逐行

翻译，我们的老师会解释

每一个单词

如果您必须慢慢学习，可以分解这些较难的课程，

当您完成课程时，您

可以确定自己的进步，

因为您将能够 提前

几分钟理解您不理解的内容

第四次

通过我们的高级计划与老师进行一对一学习，

他们将亲自审查您的写作

和口语，并纠正您的

错误

从母语人士那里获得定期反馈

非常棒 知道你是否

在进步

的方法 听到

母语人士告诉你哇你

越来越好

，感觉真是太好了第四个恐惧是我害怕

听不懂我听到的任何东西 这是

很常见的

你听到高级语法和词汇

，它完全超出你的头脑

你不知道你刚刚听到了什么

如果你在

阅读脚本阅读的同时阅读高级课程，这里有一些解决这个问题的技巧 与

我们的逐行对话一起，是

提高您对高级对话理解的最佳方式，

如果您处于现实生活中，

解决方案非常简单，

学习有用的短语，例如对不起，

您能再慢一点说一遍

还是说 用更简单的话，

甚至只是

我不明白

说你不明白

某事或寻求帮助并没有错

这些是大多数

语言学习者的一些常见恐惧，我们希望这些提示

对你

有帮助 你还有什么需要 '

害怕学习

另一种语言

，下次

再见，您是否在努力实现

语言学习目标

或失去学习的动力？

关于

如何实现目标

如何享受过程以及

奖励自己的重要性 第一

部分 如何实现语言

目标

当你达到目标时非常令人兴奋

你知道你的努力得到了回报

，你可以看到你的结果，

但是怎么做 您设定目标以确保您

能够达到它们并获得满足感

看到实际结果并

实现您的语言学习目标的最佳方法

是设定小

尺度 ble 目标 许多人

错误地设定了

模糊的大目标，比如我想流利或者

我想说一门新语言，然后他们

下载应用程序

或获取教科书，并试图实现

他们的目标，但他们很快就放弃了，

因为目标 他们为自己设定的目标

太

压倒性了，这就是为什么从学习开始

就设定小的

可衡量的每月或每周目标

很重要。 目标

是

在第一个月的学习结束时能够进行一分钟的对话，并在第二

个月末进行

两分钟的对话

可能在六个月后您的目标是

与特定可衡量的人进行 10 分钟的对话

此类目标可

帮助您跟踪进度并

防止您

因创建此类小

目标而不知所措 如果

它很小，您会感到有成就感

这有助于您享受学习

过程 这是下一个主题 我们

将重点介绍第二

部分

如果您始终专注于目标和

结果，如何享受语言学习过程 您如何享受

学习语言的过程

好吧，假设除了

更大的目标之外，您还制定了一些现实的小

目标，例如每月学习 100

个单词，每天学习 3 到 4 个单词，这样的目标

很容易实现，

并且 当你完成它们时感觉很好

这是学习一门语言的乐趣之一

所以想象一下

在你的一周内完成小目标

这是一个很好的方式来保持你的

动力并享受学习

小目标的过程可以帮助你保持正轨

当我们觉得自己没有取得

进步时保持信心 我们可能会感到沮丧和失去

动力

想想你

在工作或学校

非常忙碌的日子 可能太忙了 你没有

完成任何任务

当似乎没有任何进展时 我们

可能对自己失去信心并

想放弃

这就是为什么给自己一些

容易实现的小目标会

非常有帮助

你可以自信地对待你的学习

因为 你知道你

正在朝着你的下一个目标努力

并且你实际上可以实现它

如果你

觉得你的进度变慢了，你可以尝试

一下，回去回顾你

几周或几个月前学习过的东西，

试着记住

起初查看过去的材料有多困难可以

帮助我们了解我们已经成长

了多少相同的事情对于对话也是如此

当你开始学习一门语言时

你会学到诸如如何

自我介绍之类的东西

问基本问题并谈论

学习几个月后的天气

虽然

你会学会如何谈论你的

爱好你的邻居或你的

个性有时很难记住

我们取得了多大的进步，

但不时回顾你的工作

你投入的所有时间都

反映在你目前的能力中

当你意识到你已经走了多远时，这是令人兴奋

的 当然

有些人也可能会反思

他们的错误 特别是如果这些

错误导致与母语人士沟通不畅，

而这些记忆可能令人尴尬，

它们仍然对您的学习有用

尝试将您的思维方式转向

错误 从长远来看，犯令人尴尬的错误

可能会有所帮助，

因为我们会

生动地记住这段经历并且

如果错误不是那么尴尬，我们希望避免重蹈覆辙，

也许您可以对此一笑置之，并利用

这段记忆来确保您在未来做出正确的

决定

最后我们想提醒大家

语言学习过程中最愉快的部分

通过语言获得的新朋友联系和经验

您可以使用正在学习的语言

作为结交朋友的工具 轮船结识

新朋友和旅行，

如果你到了

学习不再有趣或有趣的地步，

花点时间想想为什么你会

不知所措

微调你的学习计划和你的学习

目标，让学习过程

对

你有用

现在是开始奖励的好时机

可以成为激励自己完成目标的有效方式

如果您的奖励与旅行或活动

相关 它也可以作为有限的

截止日期

这可以促使您更加专注 您

可以决定奖励

自己购买一些有经验的东西，

或者只是有一些时间放松

选择最适合你的奖励

积极强化

对学习很有帮助 过程

达成目标并

对此感觉良好是一回事，但如果你也有

奖励，

它可以帮助你保持循环

并帮助你继续学习，

所以今天我们介绍了目标设定如何

享受学习的过程

以及奖励的重要性 确保

你在更大的目标之外设定小的可衡量的目标

找到享受学习过程的方法，

并确保奖励

自己的成就

学习一门语言应该是有趣和

令人满意的，
