try harder lessons to challenge yourself

and improve

faster 10 ways to stop translating

in your head let’s get started

identify objects around you in english

the first way to stop translating in

your head is to identify the objects

around you in your target language so if

you’re studying

english that means you look at the

objects around the room look at the

things

in your life don’t think of them in your

native language first

think of them in your target language

first so if i look around the room i see

a computer

i shouldn’t think my native language

word i should think my target language

word so

start with the items and the situations

in your everyday life

if i say computer in english maybe i

should say computa

in japanese i should say not i don’t

know

water in english i should say omizu in

japanese so

start associating the words in your

target language with your everyday life

now so if you’re studying english that

means start getting familiar with the

things

in your everyday life in english

repeat phrases you hear native speakers

use

tip number two is to repeat the phrases

that you hear

native speakers use so if you’re

watching

this channel for example or you’re

watching a

tv show or a movie uh listen for the way

that

native speakers make those phrases if

you hear a phrase you have never heard

before

or you hear an interesting combination

of words

try to repeat them yourself don’t just

listen

try to say them yourself if you’re in a

public space and it’s difficult for you

to do that

fine practice in a place where you feel

more comfortable

maybe if you have some private space to

practice just repeat them get your mouth

used to saying the words the way that

the speakers

the native speakers do so if you never

actually say

words if you’re only taking in if you’re

only listening

and you’re not actually producing the

language it’s kind of hard to

to practice and to to really hone your

pronunciation to improve your

pronunciation

so when you listen to native speakers

try to repeat

after them so for example if you’re

studying english

you can try to repeat after this video

you can repeat after the things

i’m saying because maybe i’m using an

expression or i’m using a certain

series of vocabulary words together the

way a native speaker would

and it’s maybe a good idea to try to

practice the ways that native speakers

put their words together so try to

repeat

after native speakers especially when

you’re looking

at media and you can do this when you’re

reading books too you can try to read

out

read out loud interesting lines of books

that you find or something that maybe is

difficult for you

very nice practice tip make a situation

where you can’t

escape into your native language make a

situation where you can’t escape into

your native language

essentially means immerse yourself of

course

going to that country or going to a

place where you

can speak only that language is very

difficult for some of you

totally understand but if in your life

you can create a situation in your

library in your room

in your house somewhere for just an hour

or i don’t know maybe a day i don’t know

what your schedule is like but

if you can create a situation or create

an environment where you have

no choice but to use that language

and you cannot escape meaning you cannot

go back to using your native language as

a crutch you can’t use the native

language at all

it forces you to use the language that

you’re studying

so of course if you are lucky enough to

live in the country or to

live in a place where people speak the

language you’re studying

great but you have to go out and

interact with people you have to put

yourself in a place

where you have no choice but to speak

it’s very hard and it’s very scary and

it’s very embarrassing

at first but if you take time to find

places and to make environments that are

comfortable for you

where you feel comfortable making

mistakes and asking questions it’s very

valuable for your learning process this

is actually something that i did totally

i totally did this

my japanese wasn’t very good for a long

time

but then i started making friends who

could not speak

english uh actually i just did this

through finding hobbies there was a

hobby that i had i

joined a group i joined actually a

school to where i could learn how to do

that hobby

and everything was taught only in

japanese

and the people in my class only spoke

japanese mostly

and then maybe we would go out for

drinks and food late at night or on the

weekends and everybody spoke only

japanese

and if i couldn’t communicate even

simply in japanese i had no hope of

keeping that friendship together

so it forced me to study it forced me to

think about the words they were using

and to try to learn those words those

patterns

as well as how to produce them naturally

myself so i was learning the vocabulary

words

the people around me were using and

learning how to apply them

on my own that was only possible because

i had no escape

in those situations so try to do that

even if you can do it yourself in your

house it’s super helpful i think

watch tv and movies in your target

language without subtitles

tip number four is to watch tv and

movies in your target language

without subtitles without subtitles so

i think that watching with subtitles can

be very beneficial

so if i’m watching something or if you

want to watch something with subtitles

great but i sometimes find that i can

in my case i think too much about

reading the subtitles

and i forget to listen so maybe if

you’ve seen a movie

in your target language a few times

with the subtitles on try turning the

subtitles

off and think about the like character’s

body language the words they’re using

um you can always look that up later

look up the you know the words you don’t

know in a dictionary

but try to do it where you’re focusing

completely

on the way that people are using their

words try

not to use the subtitles so um kind of

play around with it a little bit if

there’s a word that’s difficult for you

to hear

you can actually turn on the subtitles

in like the

in the native uh language of the movie

as well

that’s something that i’ve done like if

uh like if i wanted to study japanese

it’s very useful when the actual words

spoken

in japanese appear on the screen

sometimes it’s easier for me to

catch a word if i see it visually

and i hear it at the same time so

another way to kind of

explore how you can use tv and movies

is to actually turn on the closed

captions like the

the the words on the screen in the

native language of the movie

so uh so this is sort of two points in

one so one

watch movies without subtitles meaning

subtitles in your native language and

hint two is to watch movies

um with closed captioning not

to your available okay so give me a

second here

so i understand the dictionaries

especially electronic dictionaries we

have them on our phones now are very

very convenient

um of course it’s important to use them

and it’s a they’re a great resource to

have

however one thing that really bothers me

and that i think is detrimental it’s not

helpful for students is when uh students

are in a lesson

and they’re practicing conversation and

they reach a point in the conversation

where they don’t know the word they want

to use they know it in their native

language

and they don’t know how to say it in

their target language

they pull out their dictionary they say

to this the person

listening to them their practice partner

in their lesson where they have a

limited period of time

just a moment and then they look it up

on their phone it takes

a few seconds the flow of the

conversation stops

and then they say a word and it’s like

whoa

no that’s not you don’t have that

ability you don’t have

the ability to do that in a conversation

with a native speaker

most people like if you go to a bank and

try to open a bank account are you

really gonna pull out your dictionary

and

sit there and try to communicate you

know just a moment just a moment

as you look up each word you don’t know

no or if you do that’s not a real

conversation

so instead try using a different

strategy

by that i mean if you find a word you

don’t know in conversation

explain the word to your conversation

partner

maybe they know the word if you’re

speaking with a native speaker this is a

chance for them to

teach you a word i find that when people

take the time

to teach me a word i remember the word

much

better than just looking it up on my

dictionary so

try to resist maybe you can bring a

dictionary to your lesson but don’t use

it or try

not to use it in your conversation

practice it’s just

it destroys the flow of a conversation

so instead

practice the skill of describing the

vocabulary word you want to use and

learn how to ask the meaning of a word

or learn how to

ask for a vocabulary word from your

partner so

you can use an expression like ah what’s

the word that means blah blah

or um you know it’s this thing that does

this and this and this so

this is an opportunity for you to

describe characteristics of something or

find a different way you can use your

body language you can use

whatever you have a lot of tools but try

not to use a dictionary in a

conversation because it’s not realistic

train responses to common questions

number six is a quick one i think number

six hint number six i have is just to

train

responses to common questions train

responses to common questions

so for example a very common question in

english is hey how are you

you should know how to answer this

question just have a default response

hey how are you

i’m good if it takes you

a long time to answer the question hey

how are you

you need to practice i think that’s a

pretty good uh

a pretty good indicator so for example

sometimes i ask

students a question like that they they

haven’t quite

gotten the idea of how to respond just

yet

they they’re not so quick at responding

i say

uh hey how are you and they say yes and

then they think and they go i’m

uh i’m good and it’s like

that’s a very common question so think

about

just a default response that you can

spit out that you can quickly say

if it’s how was your weekend or hey

what’s up or what do you want to do for

dinner

tonight think about like just a handful

meaning just a few responses to those

questions and train them

quickly just how are you i’m good how

are you i’m okay

how are you not bad there’s three so

it’s just training responses to those

questions there’s no reason to be

surprised by a question like how are you

like that’s a very common question so

for those common questions

train responses to that we’ve got a

bunch of videos

especially beginner level videos for

some example responses you can do

so don’t get stuck with these little

questions just train a few responses

practice a few responses till they feel

natural to you it’ll save you time

and it’ll help the person asking the

question too to move forward in the

conversation

[Music]

study with materials that don’t provide

a translation

the next tip is to study with materials

that don’t

provide a translation so by this i mean

if you’re using worksheets and or some

kind of textbook

or whatever and it has your target

language the language you’re studying

and it has your native language next to

it while this can be useful

i feel that if you can studying your

materials

only in your target language and then

simplified explanations for

more detailed points also in your target

language

can be a little bit better so i don’t

want to say like you should only study

things

in your target language and nothing from

your native language because of course

like it can be helpful sometimes to look

up a word or to understand a grammar

point in your native language

but where possible if you can find

something that provides

simplified explanations in your target

language it can be really really helpful

because again you’re thinking you’re

learning to think on like a simpler on a

more basic

level about the language you’re studying

in the language that you’re studying so

this can be really really good so

finding some materials to use

where there’s no translation maybe you

can practice

of course with with books and with

written materials

but also with like video materials as

well so

there are a variety of different ways

that you can um

find materials in your target language

like in video and tv so some things to

think about there are the

level of vocabulary words people are

using in the media content you’re

watching

um who the media content is intended for

children young adults adults

uh the speed at which the speaker is

talking so like i have the ability to

change the level of difficulty

of videos based on the rate of speech

the vocabulary words that i use and how

many like idioms and things i use

so i could make a video very difficult

we could make a very like a very

difficult video series

by leveling up our vocabulary use or by

speaking very quickly

or as you might see in like our english

and three minutes series

we can also use very simple vocabulary

and speak at a low rate of speech so

maybe right now this is a very

intermediate level video so please think

about that

so not just for written materials but

also for your audio and visual materials

think about

um who your audience is the level of the

material and so on

it can be really fun and it can be

helpful to think about

your your target language in your target

language all right we’re almost done

study phrases in addition to single

vocabulary

the next tip is study phrases in

addition to single vocabulary words so

yes of course vocabulary is important

but

i find it personally very very useful

to look at how a vocabulary word is

used in a phrase because sometimes

using it in a phrase helps you

understand the nuance of that vocabulary

word

really really well so if i like a word

like crazy for example in english

depending on the situation where the

word crazy is used

it could mean something different it

could mean like a person who’s mentally

confused or mixed up it could also mean

something really good it could mean

something really bad

so if we look only at the word crazy

it’s quite difficult to understand

really the meaning of the word

but if you look at the way the word is

used in a phrase

you can get a lot more information so

take a look at the way people use words

phrases not just as single vocabulary

words you can learn a lot more

that way i think do your daily

activities in english where possible

the next tip is to do your daily

activities in your target language

so if you’re studying english that means

trying to do some daily activities in

english if possible

so this can be very very boring stuff

but just think about it

when you’re doing the activity so like

right now i’m

filming a video for englishclass101.com

i’m going to work i’m cooking breakfast

i’m doing the laundry

what do i have to do tomorrow so try

thinking about your everyday

life in english if you’re studying

english try thinking about your everyday

activities the people that you meet

what are you doing so this is a way to

help you practice your verbs so if you

don’t know if you’re

i don’t know you’re doing something at

work and you’re like oh my gosh how do i

explain the

what’s the verb for you know a picture

like i want to blah blah a picture

what’s the word you can check

a dictionary at that point and go ah

it’s draw i

i need to use the verb draw for draw a

picture

so you can find these little gaps in

your everyday life these little gaps in

your knowledge

if you think about your everyday

activities in your target language if

you don’t think about it in your target

language

you might not realize you have

vocabulary gaps or phrase gaps here and

there so this is a really good and kind

of funny

actually way to study use a learner’s

dictionary for new words

the last tip is to use a learner’s

dictionary for new words so in english

there are learners dictionaries

available in english so

my favorite my personal favorite is

merriam webster merriam-webster is a

fantastic dictionary resource they’re so

interesting and they have

tons of like historical information i

really do

just sit and like read things on the

dictionary page

lately it’s true but um

of course there’s a definition there’s a

meaning for words there are example

sentences for words

but merriam-webster also has what’s

called a

learner’s dictionary if you find a word

that you don’t recognize

you can check it in a dictionary in a

learner’s dictionary

and it gives you a simplified a simple

explanation

in simple english of that word so

instead of checking it in your native

language you can check it in your target

language so again

this helps you to understand the word

that you are that you’re focused on but

you understand it

from the language you’re studying not

from your native language so using a

learner’s dictionary can be really

really useful as well all right how are

your english listening skills

o’clock and see a movie at four o’clock

okay hi everybody my name is alicia and

today i’m going to talk about the

correct use of the word

only let’s take a look at a few examples

and see how

moving the word only around in a

sentence can change the meaning of the

sentence

all right let’s begin first i want to

define the word only and how i’m going

to use it for this lesson

the word only for this lesson we’re

going to look at it as an

adverb so an adverb which means a single

case or a single

instance of something so there’s nothing

different

nothing more nothing less there’s just

this one thing this one

case of something but i want to focus

for this lesson

on the importance of the position of

only in a sentence

so one key to keep in mind when you use

the word

only and this is a point for native

speakers and for

non-native speakers we need to place the

word only as close as possible to the

word or to the phrase that it modifies

and by modifies i mean only is connected

to that phrase only is changing that

phrase in some way

and when i say places at place it as

close as possible to that word i mean

before that word it needs to come before

the word it’s changing before the word

it’s modifying

so i want to show a few examples of how

to do this

but i’m going to move the word only

around in the same sentence so let’s

take a look i’ll show you what i mean

let’s take a look at this

this sentence uh the base sentence here

is sarah saw michael at the park

a simple sentence so there are two

people involved one action

uh in this case the past tense saw and

then a location at the park

but i’m going to use the word only here

in a few different positions

to show how much it can change the

meaning of the sentence

depending on where we place it so the

first example here i have is only sarah

saw michael at the park here the word

only

comes before sarah so that means that

these two words are connected only

is modifying sarah in this case this

sentence

therefore means that sarah perhaps in a

group of people or with somebody else

sarah was the only person the single

person

who saw michael at the park maybe there

were other people in the group

she was with but she was the single

person the only person who saw michael

only sarah saw michael at the park

that’s the meaning

with the placement of only before sarah

here

let’s look at the next sentence sarah

only saw michael at the park

so here only is coming before the word

saw so in this case it’s modifying this

verb

saw this sentence therefore means that

sarah the only thing

sarah did her only action was to see

she only saw michael at the park meaning

no other actions happened sarah did not

wave to michael sarah did not greet

michael sarah did not throw something at

michael

uh whatever there was no other action

the only action the single action the

soul action was

that she saw michael sarah only saw

michael at the part

so the placement before the verb gives

us this meaning

let’s look at one more example sarah saw

only michael

at the park here only comes before

michael in this case so the connection

the modification

is happening here sarah saw only michael

at the park

means she did not see any other people

at the park so this could mean that

there were no

other people at the park or that maybe

she just she just didn’t see anybody at

the park so

this sentence is a little bit tricky

it’s a little hard to understand

exactly what the writer wants to say but

it could mean

that there were perhaps no people at the

park no other people

at the park that sarah saw so she went

to the park

she saw only michael there was only one

person a single person it was

michael that sarah saw so placing only

before

in this case michael gives us this

meaning

all right one more sentence sarah saw

michael

only at the park so here the word only

is coming before this phrase at the park

this location in this case meaning that

there was a single place where sarah saw

michael so sarah did not see michael at

the supermarket she did not see him at

the store

she did not see him at school she saw

him only at the park

so there’s a single location where she

saw michael

so these four sentences show us how much

the meaning of a sentence can change

depending on our placement of the

of the word only so it’s important to

keep in mind

another thing that i’ve done throughout

this lesson a little bit

is i’ve emphasized with my voice the

word that only is modifying

but i want to make one more point here

in speech

when actually speaking we can stress

words for emphasis and for clarity to

make it very clear

which word in the sentence we want to

emphasize which word we want only

to modify so for example i can say only

sarah

saw michael at the park or sarah only

saw michael at the park

so with your voice you have the ability

to emphasize

certain words and certain phrases in the

sentences

however in writing it’s not possible to

do this

so correct placement of the word only is

quite important

so i wanted to give you a few examples

uh and it’s just something to think

about the next time you use the word

only so make sure

that you’re placing the word only as

close as possible

to the word that it modifies so just

something to keep in mind all right so

bye-bye

hi everybody my name is alicia today i’m

going to talk about how to use the word

almost i’m going to show a few different

example sentences

and give you a couple pointers some

things to watch out for when you’re

using this word

so first let’s look at the meaning of

the word almost so almost

is an adverb it’s a word that means

nearly

or not quite or not completely it can

also mean

similar to something but not exactly

like something

so i’ve got a lot of example sentences

here that i hope to

uh talk about to kind of explain um the

use of almost

before i do that though i want to

mention um this point over here almost

comes before the word it modifies so

modifies means like almost

is attached you can think of it as being

attached to another word

and almost changes the meaning of that

word so

using almost before another word or

before another phrase

adds this meaning of nearly or not quite

or not completely

to that word or to that phrase so let’s

begin with that and look at a few

examples

i almost forgot my homework so here

almost comes before the verb

forgot in this case meaning i nearly

forgot my homework so

the word almost like i said almost

should come before the word it modifies

so here

it’s modifying the word forgot so i

nearly

forgot my homework i was very close to

forgetting my homework

another example he almost always calls

on his way home

so here it comes before the work it

comes before the word

always in this case almost always

meaning maybe like 95 percent of the

time or 90

of the time so not always but

merely very nearly always calls on his

way home is the meaning of this sentence

okay let’s look at another one maybe uh

an opposite meaning here

they almost never leave the house so

here we

we’ve got never as the word that almost

is modifying

so almost never means you can think of

it in terms of a percentage for example

five percent of the time they leave the

house very very close to zero

but not quite zero so almost

never not quite never but very near to

never

uh the next one you are almost finished

you’re almost finished so

here almost is modifying the word

finished so

in other words you’re nearly finished in

this case maybe you’re nearly finished

with your job for the day or you’re

nearly finished with

your homework for example you’re almost

finished is the meaning here

let’s look at the next sentence then so

the next sentence is we’re almost

home we’re almost home in this case

almost is modifying the word

home home in this case means uh

at your place of residence so to be in a

status and a status of being

at your at your place yet you’re

dwelling at your residence

so to be almost home means nearly at

your house in other words

so we can modify in this way

uh similar to this negative i used up

here with

never we’ve got there’s almost nothing

left in the refrigerator so again

almost nothing in this case so very

nearly

no things very nearly maybe nothing to

eat or no food in the refrigerator

so this sentence means there’s something

in the refrigerator a few things maybe

but almost nothing so very little

of something okay the next sentence

shows another point that i want to make

about the placement

of the word almost i mentioned in these

initial example sentences

that the word almost comes before the

word it modifies

as we’ve seen so far however when you’re

using the verb

to be and the variations of it like was

and were for example

almost comes after that verb so let’s

look at an example of that

here we have here here i have uh he was

almost fired from his job so here is my

to be verb in this case using

was he was almost fired from his job so

here

almost follows the verb to be this is a

slight change

i’ll show you one more example sentence

later so again let’s go back to this

first pattern

almost no one came to her party so here

almost begins the sentence

it’s modifying the word no one almost no

one came to her party so meaning

very few people came to her party

lastly let’s look at one more to be

example here

i was almost late for the movie so again

here’s our to be verb i was and

almost follows that to be verb i was

almost

late for the movie okay so these are

quite a few examples of how we can use

almost i want to talk a little bit about

some other ways to use almost we use

almost with time and quantity

expressions

so in these cases we use the word almost

before the time or before the quantity

let’s look at some examples

for example we’ve been waiting almost

two hours so here

two hours is a length of time we use

almost before that so

nearly two hours not quite two hours but

nearly two hours

the next example i’ve lived here for

almost five years so that doesn’t mean

five years exactly but very nearly five

years

same thing here he said they were almost

i’m sorry he said there were almost

5 000 people so almost 5 000

not quite maybe like 4 900 for example

very nearly 5 000. again the recipe made

almost 200 cookies so again not quite

is the meaning here so all of these kind

of um

we use this when it may be it’s easier

to round up to use like the next

easily recognizable number like it might

sound strange

in the last example to say the recipe

made 498 cookies it sounds very very

specific

and it also sounds like maybe the

speaker counted each individual cookie

so sometimes that’s really not

reasonable or

it might just sound a little bit strange

so um or also it’s just

sometimes not possible to count exactly

how many people or how many of something

we’re in a situation but using almost we

can make a guess

sometimes so this is quite a useful

thing

for time and quantity expressions okay

so as we’ve seen so far in this lesson

we can use

always with words like always and never

i used it over here

for example he almost always and they

almost never

so just keep in mind that these have

very very different meanings kind of

opposite meanings so

i almost always means very nearly always

and almost never means very nearly never

but not

quite same thing with all or nothing or

so i used an example here there’s almost

nothing for example um

so here it means very close to zero if i

used

almost all like almost all the people

were happy

it means very nearly everybody as well

so you can kind of see a pattern here

and the same one is we can see here at

the end everyone and no one

it’s like extreme so um like 100

versus zero percent of something so all

or nothing

everyone or no one um we can use almost

to show

that we are very near to these levels

but not

quite at these levels the last thing i

want to mention in this lesson

is a word of caution just be careful

about

where you place almost in a sentence

because it can really affect the meaning

of the sentence

so here let’s look at two very similar

sentences

one he almost told his boss all the

secrets

and two he told his boss almost all the

secrets

these are very different sentences but

they seem very similar

here i’ve used almost before the verb

told

so almost is modifying the word told

here

he almost told his boss all the secrets

meaning he

very nearly told his boss all the

secrets

but he did not he did not so

here almost modifies this verb told

meaning the action itself he almost did

this action

but he did not do the action in this

sentence however he told his boss

almost all the secrets almost

because of its positioning is modifying

the word

all he told his boss almost all the

secrets

meaning he told his boss very nearly

everything all of the secrets so maybe

like 95

90 to 95 percent of the secrets he told

his boss so the action

happened he did tell his boss but he

didn’t tell

everything in this case so please keep

this in mind your placement the place in

the sentence where you use the word

almost can create very very different

meanings

so remember this point here almost

should come before the word it modifies

so when you’re writing and when you’re

speaking you should think carefully

about this

also remember when you’re using the verb

to be almost should come

after that verb finally when you’re

speaking as i am right now we do have

the ability to use our voices we can

emphasize

key words we can stress them with our

voices to make it clear which word we

want to emphasize

however we can’t really do that in

writing so it’s really

important to consider to think about

where we place the word

almost when we’re writing so i hope that

bye-bye

hi everybody my name is alicia today i’m

going to talk about the difference

between

which and that which and that are both

relative pronouns

but a lot of people confuse the two so

let’s talk about how to use them

okay first a quick overview

which first we use which in what are

called non-restrictive relative clauses

we use that on the other hand in

restrictive

relative clauses so before we continue

let’s talk about the difference between

non-restrictive clauses and restrictive

clauses

the difference here a non-restrictive

clause first of all

where we use which is a clause that does

not have information

essential to understanding the noun it

is connected to

i’ll show you some examples in just a

minute a restrictive clause however

is a clause that has information

essential to our understanding of that

noun so

we need the information in the

restrictive clause

to completely understand the noun or the

noun phrase it is attached to

a non-restrictive clause is sort of

extra information

we don’t need the information to

understand the noun or the noun phrase

it just provides some more information

so let’s take a look at a few examples

of this

the first example i have is rather

extreme but it’s just to show the

differences between these

two first the school that i parked my

car next to

is dangerous so here my noun is school

here i’ve got the relative pronoun that

i have the school

that i parked my car next to is

dangerous

i’ve used that here because my claws is

a restrictive claws i

need this information the school that i

parked my car

next to is dangerous if i remove this

the school is dangerous the sentence is

correct

however the meaning changes uh

the key here is that i parked my car

there so i want to

explain that specifically the school

that i parked my car

next to this school in particular is

dangerous

so that shows us that it’s a restrictive

clause we have to use that in this

sentence because the information is

essential to our understanding

in this sentence however the school

which has a tennis court

is dangerous i’ve used which so which

is a non-restrictive is used in

non-restrictive clauses

this shows us it is extra information

the school

has a tennis court do i need to know

this information

no it’s just extra information if i

remove this clause

the school is dangerous the root

sentence the basic sentence

stays the same this is just extra

information it doesn’t necessarily tell

essential information about the

situation so

we use which to show that it’s a

non-restrictive relative clause

as i said this is a rather extreme

example

so let’s take a look at something that’s

a little bit more

uh complex okay let’s look at the next

two sentences

first the car which i bought last year

is already having trouble and

the car that i bought last year is

already having trouble

these are very similar sounding

sentences however

our choice of which or that as well as

the commas which i’ll talk about later

have changed the meaning so there are a

couple key differences here

one by seeing that in the first sentence

that we’re using a non-restrictive

clause here with which

we see the car which i bought last year

this shows us that this is extra

information about the car here however

we see that this is essential

information the car that i bought

last year is already having trouble so

the speaker could be saying here

with this sentence the second sentence

the car that i bought last year

specifically a car that the speaker

purchased the previous year

this sentence means therefore the

speaker might have other cars

the speaker is specifically meaning this

specific

car that they he or she bought last year

in this sentence with the

non-restrictive clause we don’t have the

same nuance

the car which i bought last year is just

extra information

in this sentence so here the car

that i bought last year this is

indicating a specific car

this one with the non-restrictive claws

it’s just giving us extra information

so the speaker may or may not have

another car

we don’t know so that’s all i want to

say about that okay

but a question that many people have is

how do you know

whether it’s a restrictive or a

non-restrictive clause so this is a

quick

tip a quick hint uh for native speakers

and non-native speakers actually

is it restrictive non-restrictive how do

i know to do that

remove the clause just take the clause

out of the sentence

is the meaning of the sentence the same

is the sentence still grammatically

correct is it okay

if yes if the sentence is okay the

meaning is the same

it’s a non-restrictive clause if no if

the meaning changes

if you lose some key information it is a

restrictive clause

so this is a quick hint if you’re not

sure whether to use which

or whether to use that try this test

this quick test just take it out and see

if the meaning

changes the last thing i want to talk

about here

is the use of commas so you’ll notice i

used commas

throughout this lesson and also when i

was reading they kind of create a

natural pause around this extra

information

but when do you use them we should use

commas

around non-restrictive clauses so you

can see

i used them here

and here in the example sentences we use

commas around non-restrictive clauses

only

again this lesson comma which is being

recorded

comma is about which and that so

when you’re reading it creates a natural

pause so the reader knows there’s going

to be like

extra information there the reader can

understand through use of these commas

however do not use commas around

restrictive clauses

for example the lesson that i just

taught was about how to use

which and that this is a restrictive

clause so i

mean specifically this lesson that i

just taught

was about how to use which and that i

should not include commas here

because i’m not including any extra

information all of the information is

essential

it’s the same with all of the other

example sentences i used in this lesson

there are no commas included because all

of the information is essential

the reader needs to understand

everything in one piece

you can think of it that way okay so

that’s an

overview of the differences between

which and that

restrictive clauses as well and a couple

of comma tips too so i hope that this

was a useful lesson for you

ten ways to report speech let’s

go say the first word

is say say as a verb say

is a very neutral word you can use to

report

someone’s speech to explain something

someone said in the past so for example

he said the barbecue was cancelled

just a simple neutral report

tell the next verb is tell

tell is used when one person is giving

information to another to tell

someone something they did not know

before don’t say tell me your phone

number that’s weird

but like can you tell me where the

station is can you tell me where

to buy a hamburger can you tell me where

pick up my new car like so giving

someone information they don’t know or

or on the other hand explaining

something one way

to another person so don’t tell me what

i can’t do

is a very good lost reference if you’ve

ever watched lost

so tell another example sentence my boss

told me i was doing a good job

speak the next one is

speak speak so we use speak

when we’re talking about language

ability like i speak

english i speak japanese we can use

speak in the past

tense to report something but it usually

sounds a little more formal so like i

spoke to my boss

about or i spoke to my parents about

or i spoke to my boyfriend or girlfriend

about blah blah blah

that using speak instead of talked

makes it sound a little bit more formal

so you can use speak

but it’s going to sound polite in a

sentence my colleagues spoke with me

about an upcoming project

was like okay the next one the next two

actually are very very casual

expressions

so when you’re speaking with friends and

you’re kind of talking about a quick

maybe somewhat emotional conversation

you will hear native speakers especially

americans perhaps

this is unique somewhat to americans use

the phrase

was like i was like he was like

she was like this is a very casual way

to report

speech and you’ll hear it often very

very quickly

together so someone will say i was like

what and then she was like no and then i

was like yeah

that’s the kind of pattern you’ll hear

it in very very

quick ways to report speech but the

subject changes

i was like he was like she was like we

were like this is a way to share

what happens quickly instead of i said

he said she said

which might sound a little too formal we

can use i was like

he was like to do that instead so this

is a really fun one and if you can use

this

uh naturally i think that it’ll really

help you sound more natural too so in a

sentence

and then he was like i love that movie

was all

the next one is also a similar to was

we have the expression was all so was

all don’t worry about all all does not

have the meaning of

the whole of something or a complete

something instead

was all this set phrase is used to

report

speech usually this one is used when

there’s some kind of

emotional uh emotional

aspect to your conversation or it’s a

little dramatic or

maybe a little exciting we use it the

same way as

was like in that very very quick style

of speaking

and then he was like and i was all and

then she was like and i was all

we use those together but i was all has

a little more emphasis

i feel i tend to use it when my when i

want to express a stronger emotion

and i was all no way or and i was all

what

so you can use it for those very like

surprised emotions or maybe angry

emotions

was like and was all are both used in

very casual situations

so in a sentence and i was all oh my god

me too

talk the next word is talk

so talk similar to uh say

is a fairly neutral verb when reporting

speech

you’ll use it in a situation where

someone

is giving new information uh to you

but maybe it’s a two-way conversation so

for example

we talked about blah blah blah

for a topic or my boss talked

to me about blah blah blah so maybe

new information is being exchanged but

the conversation is two way there are

multiple participants with tell

it’s like the nuance is sort of one

person is reporting information giving

information

with talked it’s there’s an exchange

happening there

so keep in mind when you use the word

talk

you will say either i i talked to or i

talked

with someone and then you’ll usually

have a topic so i talked to my friend

about blah blah blah i talked to my

friend about my new apartment i talked

to my boss about a raise i talk to my

boss

no i talk to my dog about what dogs do

so there’s some kind of there’s some

kind of exchange happening there

you’ll need to use two or with when

you’re referring to the person

or entity you’re talking to and you’ll

use

about to refer to the subject so

you can use this one um yeah when you’re

when you want to discuss

exchanges of information so in a

sentence she talked to me

about my family mention

let’s go to the next one the next one is

mention

mention is used when like something is

just

there’s just one small point in a

conversation like

just a little side note or maybe it’s

not the focus of a conversation but just

something

someone says quickly or there’s just a

little thing that you hear

oh you mentioned something about blah

blah blah or

you mentioned that a new project like

it’s it’s maybe not the focus of the

conversation but something that

you heard a little bit about that’s

that’s when we use the verb

mention we can also use it in a

statement like please

mention any skills you have on a resume

the nuance is sort of like a like just a

little bit of information

is when we use mention so in a sentence

our manager mentioned

upcoming changes at the company to go on

and on

okay the next expression is to go on and

on so to go on and on

means just to talk for a very long time

so maybe you have a co-worker

or a friend or a family member that just

talks and does not stop

talking we say to go on and

on that’s the expression we use so in a

sentence

the speaker at the seminar was going on

and on

about the topic if you really want to

emphasize it you can say what’s going on

and on and on and on and on and that

really emphasizes that the person

continues to speak

so if you know somebody who does that a

lot you can use this expression to talk

about them

according to uh the next expression here

is according to

according to is used uh actually in the

news

or like to officially report something

so according to sources or according to

the police according to the government

official

according to my teacher according to my

mother

these are like direct reports of

information

and they’re direct reports of

information from a specific

source so according to the newspaper

my f neighborhood has 50

000 amazing ramen shops

that’s not true but if

i want to instead of just saying my

neighborhood has 50 000 amazing ramen

shops

i’m giving a source for that so

according to my newspaper

this is this is where i got the

information so this is important to use

in news and newspapers and any kind of

official documentation you will see

and hear according to in these cases ah

in a sentence

according to a witness at the scene the

suspect escaped

report great so um the next one is

report

so reports similar to according to

we use report in more official

situations so

to officially share information like to

report to the police to report to your

teacher to report to

your boss sometimes it means to submit

documentation

like to to give someone a written report

sometimes it’s to

share information officially just just

with your voice to report

news or to report an update so when you

want to

give and give official information we’ll

use the verb

report so in a sentence sources in the

area

report that the accident was not serious

thank goodness all right top 10

must know phrases for the restaurant

let’s get started

a table for three please a table for

three please you tell them the number of

people that you are

total so that the host can bring you to

an appropriate table

a table for two please a table for five

please

could i please see a menu could i please

see a menu usually menus are given to

you as soon as you sit down at your

table

but if that’s not the case and you need

to ask this is a polite way to do it

could i please see a menu i’d like to

try this dish

i’d like to try this dish when looking

at a menu

hopefully you’ll find something you want

to eat i’d like to try this dish

could you leave out the onions could you

leave out the onions

if there’s an ingredient in the dish

that you’re ordering that you don’t want

you can always ask the waiter if it

could be prepared

without that ingredient so for example i

might say

could i get the burger but with no

cheese could you pass the salt

could you pass the salt when you’re at a

restaurant especially if you’re at a big

table with a lot of people

you might not always be able to reach

things

so you would ask could you pass me the

salt

could you pass me the ketchup could you

pass me another napkin

waiter waiter a waiter is someone who

takes your order

and brings you food in america and in

many other western countries

it’s more polite to call a waiter to

your table by simply saying

excuse me or if you see another waiter

walking by but it’s not your waiter

you can always say excuse me if you see

our waiter could you please let them

know to come to our table

is there any dairy in this dish is there

any dairy in this dish

this is something you would say if you

have a dairy allergy

a dairy intolerance or you just don’t

like dairy

you’re asking the waiter about the

ingredients in a particular dish

i do this all the time is there any

cheese in this

no okay and if there is an ingredient

that you don’t want

for example onions you could say are

there any onions in this

and the waiter might say yes and if you

don’t want it you could always request

could you leave out the onions could you

prepare it without the onions please

can we get separate checks can we get

separate checks

this is actually something that’s very

common especially in america

if you might go out with a group of

friends or even if you’re on a date

sometimes you might want to get separate

checks pay for your own things

that way you can all pay separately just

for what you yourself ordered

and you won’t have to worry about owing

each other money or

calculating off a big huge bill are

there any specials today

are there any specials today a special

at a restaurant

is a dish that isn’t usually on the menu

it’s something that’s

special but it’s a special that the chef

is offering

that day or that week or that month

so sometimes if you don’t see what the

specials are you’d ask your waiter

excuse me are there any specials today

could we have the bill please

could we have the bill please this is

how you request

that the check or the bill comes to your

table can we get the check

please could we get the bill please

you’re asking this to your waiter who

will then

bring you the check and you can pay

about 10 words that you can use at a bar

let’s go to buy a round the first

expression is to buy

a round to buy a round means

to buy a round of drinks essentially a

round of drinks means one drink for

everyone in your group one drink for

everyone in your party

by the way the word party is used to

mean group

at a bar or restaurant the number of

people in your party

is the number of people in your group so

to buy a round means to buy a drink for

everybody in a sentence our boss began

the party by buying everyone around

in a different sentence you’re buying

the next round

on the rocks the next expression is

on the rocks on the rocks is a way to

order a drink when you say on the rocks

it means

your drink on ice only so rocks are the

ice

in your glass so you can imagine the ice

the pieces of ice in your glass the ice

cubes or an ice ball

these are like rocks so saying i’d like

whiskey for example on the rocks means

just whiskey

served over ice that’s what on the rocks

mean so in a sentence

i’d like a gin on the rocks straight up

the next expression is straight up so a

straight

up drink is different from an on the

rocks drink a straight up drink is

chilled with ice but it’s strained

so there’s no ice in the drink but it is

it has been

chilled with ice so a straight up drink

there’s nothing else

in the glass but it is a chilled drink

in a sentence

i’d like a martini straight up some

people use the word straight or straight

up but they mean

neat which is the next word we’re going

to talk about so keep in mind straight

or straight up means chilled that’s one

of the key points here

so yeah a martini straight up is a

chilled martini

neat so the next expression is neat

to order a drink neat means the drink is

not chilled and there is no

ice it’s just it’s just the the alcohol

it’s just the liquor there’s nothing

special about it

a neat drink is only the drink

that’s it nothing happens to it so in a

sentence i’d like a whiskey

neat pint half pint

the next expression is really two

expressions these are words you use when

you order

beer they are pint and half pint

depending on the country that you live

in pint can be

a different size they vary by

a few milliliters depending on the

country where you live in

a half pint then is roughly half of the

pint

size so a half pint and a pint are two

ways two

sizes we use to order beer in a sentence

can i have a half pint of this stout

chaser the next expression is chaser

so a chaser is something you use to

follow an

alcoholic drink chasers are often used

after

shots so shots are small drinks that are

usually kind of

strong in alcohol content and they have

a very strong taste

so some people like to have something

after that

and they call it a chaser so the image

that the the second drink is chasing

the first drink into your body you can

think of it that way the chaser is a

non-alcoholic drink so it could be water

it could be soda it could be something

like that juice

maybe so chaser in a sentence shots of

tequila are

often followed with chasers to be tipsy

the next word is to be tipsy to be tipsy

is a way to describe your feeling when

you’re drinking

so if you can imagine when you’re when

you’re standing

straight up uh when you’re standing as

regular you’re very like confident

and tall and you don’t move very much

but if you feel

tipsy this comes from the verb to tip

like this so something tips

uh to one side or another uh think of

your body in this way

so we use the word uh tipsy the

adjective

tipsy um to describe this feeling maybe

you’re not so

steady on your feet you could tip over

at any time that’s called being tipsy

from alcohol

okay so in a sentence uh let’s see i’m a

little tipsy i need some water

to be drunk the next expression is to be

drunk

so we talked about the word tipsy so

tipsy is a little bit like a little

unsteady but drunk is just

a mess you’re just you’re just a

disaster maybe you’re being noisy you’re

being loud it’s difficult to

control your body or your friend’s body

whatever so drunk is usually

seen as a negative thing um so yeah so

drunk

uh expresses yeah it’s it’s just not

pretty

sometimes so in a sentence your friend

is drunk let’s take him home to call it

a night

the next expression is to call it a

night to call it a night

means to decide to finish at the bar

to go home uh you’re ready to be done so

here i’m going to call it i’m going to

say

this is tonight tonight is finished

so in a sentence uh it’s been a long

evening

i’m gonna call it a night i mean i’m

going to go home i’m done

it’s a casual expression hangover and

then one more that you can use maybe the

day

after you visit a bar is hangover so a

hangover is a noun hangover is the word

we use to describe the feelings

after drinking too much so maybe you

feel sick

to your stomach you have a headache your

body is sore

there are a number of different feelings

you might have when you feel

hung over to be hungover is another way

to say it but when you have a hangover

it usually doesn’t feel very good in a

sentence

i have a hangover today i’m not going

drinking tonight

the first phrase is hello hello of

family members particularly mothers and

fathers to say good night to their

children before they put them to bed

you can say it to your friend in a text

message or in an email if you’ve been

phrase is i’m

fine thanks and you uh if you saw

english in three minutes we talked a lot

about this phrase uh instead of i’m fine

thank you and you

say i’m good thanks how are you just

shorten it make it a little bit more

natural

how are you good how are you great how

something when you have to give a

negative

answer so as you can probably guess um

the long form of no is

negative i like to use nope it’s very

very casual

that with me to soften that a little bit

if you want to show a negative response

to something like let’s go for dinner

tonight

what do you want to do like do you want

to go out not

really no i don’t think so

to soften it the next word is okay okay

this word comes from copy editors okay

when they had to check a manuscript

um they had to label the manuscript all

clear

ac but because they were copy editors

and they have a very very sick sense of

humor

they thought they would mark it okay for

all clear to make a joke because

o and k do not start all and clear but

it caught on

among everybody in the world anyway

okay uh is used to agree with somebody

else

well it can be used actually to express

a positive or kind of a slight

negative i feel transitioning in your

conversation you can say

okay now we’re going to talk about blah

blah blah okay

the next phrase is excuse me excuse me

in english when you don’t know the other

person for example in a store

a supermarket maybe a stranger on the

street you need to ask directions you

supermarket excuse me can you tell me

where the hot sauce is

if you’ve done something rude in public

i personally do not do rude things in

public ever i’m sorry is the next word

we’re going to talk about i’m sorry is

used to apologize when you have made a

mistake

and you’re connected to it or you just

feel bad you can use i’m sorry

forgot to feed your cat i’m sorry sorry

about that

you bump someone next to you oh sorry

what time is it is the next phrase when

you need to check what time it is

what time is it when you ask someone

else what time it is maybe you say this

to yourself too

check your watch check your phone check

a clock pretty straightforward phrase

there aren’t really any

short versions so that’s an easy one

where is that plus a location so you can

use this for

a building or a store we don’t we’re not

going to use this where is the

for a place a city name or a state name

or a country name

to do that you would need to remove the

but where is the bank where is the post

office you can use this to ask

directions to ask for help

in your house or at work where is the

copy machine

where is the file i need where is the

blah blah blah

where is the bathroom is perhaps a very

important question to know

the next one is may i use the restroom

may i use the restroom is a polite

and soft expression that you can use if

you need to use the toilet you need to

use the washroom

when you’re at someone’s house for the

very first time when you’re in a place

that you’re that is new to you you can

ask may i use the restroom

more casually can i go to the bathroom

to be very polite you can say may i go

to the bathroom

the next phrase is i would like to order

something

you can use this at a restaurant

probably or in any situation where you

need to place an

order i’d like a pizza i’d like

a beer can i get the check please this

will be used at a restaurant when you’ve

finished your meal and it’s time to go

can i get the check please

in a very very casual situation you can

just say check please

that’s fine the next phrase is see you

soon see you soon is used with friends

and family members perhaps

when you expect to see them again soon

after saying goodbye to them this is

used at the end of the conversation

you’re going separate directions

see you soon see ya is also good or just

see you

to make it a little more formal you can

say i’ll see you again soon make a full

sentence out of it that way

the next phrases see you later see you

later is very similar to see you soon

but the point is

with cu later is that you’re probably

going to meet that person again later on

in the same day

the last phrase is really really is a

very useful word because you can use it

to show you’re interested in a

conversation with upward intonation

really really tell me more or to show

that you’re not so interested in the

conversation with downward intonation

really so there are many other words

that you can use similar to

really in this way like seriously or oh

oh and so on so it’s a really good

practice for your intonation

ways to say hi this should be fun let’s

get started first is yo

this one is a little bit casual in case

you couldn’t tell

used for close friends maybe family

members if you have kind of a silly

relationship with them

just quick short easy to do in a

sentence

yo how’s it going howdy howdy

uh traditionally associated with cowboy

culture i suppose you should play a

banjo maybe or you’ve just gotten off a

horse i don’t know i use howdy from time

to time

howdy howdy howdy

that’s my banjo yeah in a sentence you

might say

howdy folks welcome to the

barbecue place

next is hey hey is good friendly phrase

you can usually use hay with a wave and

smile look happy

if you don’t people might think that

you’re down in the dumps people might

think you’re not in a very good mood in

a sentence hey

uh i heard you got engaged last week

congratulations

something like that it’s usually kind of

a cheery happy expression

all right next is what’s up uh what’s up

is the long form of

sup this does not literally mean what is

above you right now

if you want to be funny you can say the

ceiling or the sky but that joke gets

old really fast and chances are the

person you’re talking to has already

heard it before

it just means what are you up to what is

going on with you in a sentence

what’s up did you have a good weekend

typical response to what’s up is not

much

find out some more responses in english

in three minutes we did an episode on

this

nothing much how about you that’s pretty

good pretty good

pretty good pretty good

i don’t know what i’m doing the next one

is long time no see you can use this

when you haven’t seen the other person

for a long time

you’re at a party or an event or

whatever anytime it’s been a long break

you can

decide how long long is not the day

before or the week before maybe a few

weeks or a month whatever is unusual for

you and this other person

when you see them you can say hey long

time no see how have you been about 10

words for talking about

beauty and skin skincare so let’s begin

all right the first word is makeup

makeup is

all makeup everything we’re going to

talk about almost everything we’re going

to talk about later is

makeup makeup is usually used by women

but maybe

men use makeup too makeup is usually put

on the face

to change the appearance of the face in

some way

so in a sentence i use makeup almost

every day

or i wear makeup almost every day use

and wear are both okay

the next word is eye shadow so eye

shadow is makeup which goes

on top of the eye so the eyelid this

part is called your eyelid

eyeshadow goes here on top of the eyelid

in a sentence what kind of eye shadow do

you use

the next word is eye liner eyeliner so

eyeliner is used to draw a line to draw

lines near the eyes that means it’s safe

to use

near eyes it depends on the person and

their style

but maybe they use eyeliner to make

lines in different ways

on their on their face on near their

near their eyes in a sentence

eyeliner is really difficult to put on

okay

the next word is lipstick lipstick uh

there’s also

lip gloss too lipstick is kind of the

traditional just

like a single color you apply it just on

your lips and it gives

i don’t know not sometimes shiny

sometimes a very

neutral i don’t know depends on the

lipstick lip gloss

gives lips like this very glossy almost

like liquidy appearance so lipstick

and lip gloss have different effects in

a sentence

uh you have a lot of lipstick the next

expression

is foundation foundation is the

makeup product it is applied to the skin

usually of the face

so it’s used to make the face seem like

all

one color foundation maybe people apply

it with i don’t know like a spongy thing

with their hands or a brush there’s like

i forgot what it’s called isn’t it like

a sponge i don’t know something

is it a beauty blender is that a thing i

think so i i don’t know i don’t know i’m

the wrong person

i don’t know it’s a beauty blender a

thing i’m not very good at the beauty

stuff either i don’t know

anyway foundation is intended to make

your skin color appear

even foundation so it’s called

foundation because it’s like the base

the foundation

for the rest of your makeup so the

foundation is the

kind of the basis so once your skin

color is all

correct and the same then the other

parts we can fix the other parts

that’s my theory anyway in a sentence

there are a few different types of

foundation

all right the next expression is blush

blush is usually applied on your cheeks

and it’s like a pink or red color it

gives the appearance of

blushing so when we feel embarrassed or

maybe we feel excited

our cheeks might turn red so blush is

makeup which

creates that effect of blushing this is

usually a pink or red color to simulate

to make it look like you’re blushing

even if you’re not really in a sentence

do you wear blush the next expression is

bronzer bronzer so we talked about blush

which is supposed to give your skin the

appearance of being pink or blushing

bronzer gives skin the appearance of

being

more bronze or more tan so you can apply

this maybe in summer and it makes your

skin

look a little more tan which you might

other people also may use bronzer to

create shadows

because it makes the skin a little bit

darker in the places where it’s applied

so there are a few different ways to use

bronzer

in a sentence bronzer is nice in summer

the next word is

face wash face wash so this is a special

soap that’s for your face specifically

for the face

maybe your face is very sensitive or you

have some

trouble spots or i don’t know there’s a

specific

wash you use for your face only in a

sentence

a good face wash is important for clear

skin

oh the next word oh the dreaded i have a

couple words here that are maybe

problems all of us deal with the first

kind of problem word on this list is

acne acne is an uncountable noun

acne refers to usually this is this

a problem happens for like teenagers or

people around that age but adults can

also

have acne acne is like imperfections in

the skin

sometimes they’re itchy or they’re

painful red bumps on your skin or maybe

they’re not painful but they’re just

blotches or a number of different ways

that acne

can can be an issue which we’ll talk

about in the next word too but acne is

an uncountable noun

is just about that problem skin problem

in general acne bad acne in a sentence i

had

acne when i was a teenager so the next

word for today there are two words here

there’s pimple and

zit these are both words we use to refer

to the

individual parts of acne acne we can say

i have

bad acne or maybe my acne is improving

today

but acne is maybe the whole condition of

your face

like everything your face is situation

each part each

one of those little problem spots we

we call that a pimple or a zit the

difference

pimple sounds a little bit smaller

usually zit

sounds a bit bigger and maybe maybe more

painful

so but either way pimples and zits are

both

words we can use to describe acne so in

a sentence

i hate getting pimples 10 words you can

use to talk

about hygiene or cleanliness so let’s

begin

to wash your hands the first expression

is to wash your hands to wash your hands

with soap and water in the restroom

somewhere so wash your hands before

cooking or wash your hands after using

the toilet for example in a sentence

wash your hands after using the bathroom

to shower

the next expression is to shower to

shower

or to shower or maybe you prefer to take

a bath

so to shower is usually standing up

though you can do it sitting down

depending on the country you live in i

suppose to shower

is that yeah the water just hits you

continuously

to take a bath is you sit in the bathtub

you sit down and you are surrounded by

water

that is a bath surrounded by one

sitting down surrounded by water in your

home on purpose

is a bath if it’s not on purpose

you should probably call a plumber

because that is not a bath that is an

emergency

all right uh in a sentence i shower

every day or i

love taking a bath every once in a while

to brush your teeth the next expression

is to brush your teeth

to brush your teeth so with a toothbrush

maybe you can put your you can style

your hair in a mohawk

your hair

uh in a sentence it takes a long time to

my hair is naturally explosive and so i

have to straighten it before like

everything and then as soon as humidity

gets it

it goes it makes that sound too

your legs whatever

uh you we use the verb to shave to shave

with a razor in a sentence shaving is a

pain

for sure meaning shaving is troublesome

soap

or cleanser the next word is soap

or cleanser so soap is just used to

clean your skin or yeah to clean your

face

maybe to clean your hands we do not use

soap for

the stuff you use to clean your teeth

soap is used for

like body cleaner or maybe um

what you use to wash your clothes uh so

body cleanser in a sentence i like nice

smelling soaps and cleansers

that is true who does not deodorant

the next word is deodorant deodorant so

deodorant

is the product you might put on your

body

to prevent unpleasant smells so usually

it goes in this region so this is called

the armpit

this region so arm and then pit so like

yeah kind of this cavish area in your

arm we call the armpit

but it’s common to apply deodorant here

you might put it

in other areas on your body but the goal

to prevent bad smells or

to in some cases just stop sweating

completely

so this is deodorant well deodorant

actually if i’m going to be strict here

deodorant is used to

stop unpleasant smells antiperspirant

is used to prevent sweating so

perspirant

comes from perspire so to perspire

means to sweat anti means not or stop so

anti-perspirant is a product to make you

stop sweating so deodorant is the smell

one antiperspirant is the sweat one

sometimes you can buy a deodorant and

antiperspirant

together great in a sentence

wearing deodorant is important

especially in summer

mouthwash the next word is mouthwash

mouthwash

i hope is easy to understand it’s wash

orange color and kind of has a minty or

citrusy taste

but you put it in your mouth and kind of

swish like

or tooth cleaner or whatever

we use tooth paste for uh the

product to clean our teeth the product

we use to brush our teeth is called

tooth paste so in a sentence

and conditioner the next expression is

conditioner are commonly used together

in the shower or in the bath maybe

shampoo usually comes first we shampoo

shampoo is soap for your hair really and

moisturized so oftentimes they’re used

for shampoo

and then conditioner together as a set

know your verbs look at your verbs look

at your verbs

hi everybody my name is alicia welcome

back to know your verbs

in this episode we’re going to talk

about the verb look

so let’s go

the basic definition of the verb look is

use your eyes to use your skills of

vision

uh to yeah to use your eyes to look

to turn your eyes towards something to

use your vision is to look

the difference between the verb c if you

watch the c

episode of know your verbs c means to

perceive something with the

eyes look means like to focus the eyes

on something to direct your attention

towards something whereas c is like to

take in something to perceive to gain

information with the eyes

look is just focusing your attention in

something on something

conjugations let’s check out the

conjugations of this verb

present tense look or looks past tense

looked past participle looked

progressive or continuous tense

looking so

let’s check out some of the additional

meetings of the verb look

first to appear in accordance with here

are some examples

she’s had a rough year yeah she looks it

burn

second example he’s 60 he doesn’t look

okay so in these example sentences

look is referring to matching

some other information about a person or

about

a condition about a situation so in this

case in the first example sentence we

hear

she’s had a rough year and then the

response to that is yeah

she looks it so it means

it in other words the it here means

as though she’s had a rough year she

looks

meaning she appears in accordance with

the fact

she has had a rough year but that’s a

very long thing to say

instead we say yeah she looks it she’s

her appearance suggests what you have

just said she’s had a rough year

yeah she looks it where it equals rough

year

and looks shows that matches so her look

matches this rough year fact we’ve

learned about her the second sentence is

similar

someone says he’s 60 meaning he’s 60

years old

but we hear the negative response he

doesn’t

look it meaning he does not appear

as a 60 year old man meaning in other

words he probably looks much younger

than 60. he doesn’t look it

could be that he seems way way older

than 60 years old like if someone

looks ancient if someone has the

appearance of a very

very old person and you go oh my gosh

he’s 60 he doesn’t look it

that’s possible too that’s possible i

suppose so you just have to gauge

based on the intonation so we can use an

expression like that to mean someone is

significantly younger

or older the next meaning is to seem

to seem here are some examples this

looks pretty tough

this is looking like it’s going to be

easier than i thought in these example

sentences we can replace the verb look

with

seem and the meaning stays the same so

this looks pretty tough has the same

meaning as this seems pretty tough

so to seem and to look have the same

meaning

in these examples in the second example

sentence we saw

this is looking like it’s going to be

easier than i thought

we can replace looking with seeming and

the meaning stays the same

this is seeming like it’s going to be

easier than i thought so both of these

we can simply replace the verb

and we have the same meaning in these

cases so

look means to seem why would you use

look instead of seam what is the

difference here

for me personally i think seam sounds

slightly more formal than look

i would not use seam in most cases i

would say looks in most cases

when i want to say seam if i want to

sound slightly more formal or slightly

more polite i would probably use

seam this seems to be the problem what

seems to be the problem

instead of what looks like the problem

look or it looks like this one’s your

problem

like look sounds like not nearly as

formal

all right next is to have in mind

as a goal to have in mind as a goal here

are some examples

we’re looking to buy a new car by the

end of the month

he’s looking to complete his job

transfer by next month

so both of these sentences define a goal

they explain a goal

we’re also using the progressive form of

looking

so that means we are in the progress of

working towards a goal or in the

progress

of completing a goal in the first

example sentence we’re

looking to buy a new car by the end of

the month

means our goal is to buy a new car by

the end of the month and we are

currently trying to do that

but this is quite a long expression so

instead we use

look we are looking to buy a new car i

suppose we could replace this with the

verb aiming to we’re aiming to buy a new

car

aiming um but aiming sounds rather

formal

and looking is a little bit more casual

so we’re looking to

buy a new car in the second sentence

he’s looking to complete his job

transfer by next month we see the same

thing his goal is to complete his job

transfer and his aim is to do it by next

month so he is currently working towards

his goal

he’s looking to complete something we

use it in the progressive tense

to show he is currently trying to

achieve this goal to achieve this

outcome the next meaning is to express

with your eyes or with your face

so you’re actually you’re creating an

appearance with your eyes or your face

an expression

in other words here are some examples

she looked surprised they look pretty

angry

here both of these examples are talking

about an expression a facial expression

or some appearance that

is created with the face or with the

eyes so in the first example we see

she looked surprised in past tense this

indicates

that with her face something about her

face or her eyes

showed surprise she created a surprised

face

with her facial expression in other

words so she looked

surprised in the second example they

look pretty angry

present tense they look pretty angry

means their facial expression

appears angry they’re what something

they are doing with their face or their

eyes

creates an angry look look is a noun

here

so uh to they look pretty angry is their

expression appears

angry

let’s go on to some variations of this

how can we pair

other words with look to create a new

meaning

first is look into look into this means

to investigate here are some examples we

need to look into these accusations

have you looked into the requirements

for your license

both of these mean to examine or to

investigate something

so in the first example sentence we need

to look into these accusations

means we need to investigate these

accusations we need to maybe

research we need to search for more

information about

something so look into kind of contains

all of that

find more information about something

but look into

is much shorter and easier to say to

look into something

it does sound more casual you could

replace this with the verb investigate

we need to investigate

these accusations instead of look into

these accusations

investigate sounds more formal than look

into in the second sentence have you

looked into the requirements for your

license

we see the same thing have you

investigated the requirements for your

license

but investigated sounds quite polite

quite formal so instead we use

have you looked into past tense have you

looked into the requirements

past tense shows investigation but it

doesn’t sound

so formal as investigate the next

variation

is look the other way look the other way

this means

to direct your attention away from

something

unpleasant here are some examples you

can’t just look the other way while your

boss mistreats the employees in your

company we shouldn’t look the other way

when our fellow humans are in trouble

so these example sentences show the use

of look the other way meaning to look

away from something unpleasant

in the first example about a boss

mistreating employees in a company

it means we can’t just turn our

attention away

from the mistreatment of the employees

in the company or we should not do that

that’s a bad idea

we should not direct our attention away

from this unpleasant situation

if there’s a bad situation there we

should not

ignore that situation in other words we

should not look the other way we should

not turn our attention away

from this bad situation and in the

second example sentence we shouldn’t

look the other way when our fellow

humans are in trouble

it’s a more general statement but if

other humans fellow humans

other people are in trouble we should

not uh

ignore it we should not ignore it we

should not turn our attention in another

way

too thanks very much for watching and

i’ll see you again

next time so many verbs

extremely correct yes excellent work

examine i looked away

i went i didn’t realize how much i used

the verb

look oh my gosh oh my gosh

look hi everybody my name is alicia

welcome back to know your

verbs in this episode we’re going to

talk about the verb

keep let’s get started

the basic definition of the verb keep

is to have in possession so like to own

something or to hold

something is to keep here are the

conjugations for this verb

present tense keep keeps

past tense kept past participle tense

kept progressive tense keeping

now let’s talk about some additional

meanings of this verb

the first additional meaning for this

lesson is to

stop something from going somewhere

this can mean to stop a person like from

leaving or from going to another place

or to stop an object from moving or from

going uh

somewhere let’s look at some examples is

our manager at the office

can you keep her there for 10 more

minutes okay next one

keep that car inside the gates

so don’t let it go outside the gates

keep it

inside the gates meaning number two

additional meaning number two

for the verb keep to cause to remain in

a condition

or to cause to remain in a situation

let’s look at some examples sorry to

keep you waiting

so here sorry to keep sorry to

uh make you stay in the waiting

condition in the waiting situation sorry

to keep you waiting

the boss has kept us wondering about

changes for months

that was past participle the boss has

kept

us wondering so we remain

in the state of wondering here the boss

has

kept us wandering for months

so has caused us to wonder continuously

for a period of months is the meaning of

this sentence

meaning number three for this lesson is

just

to stay or to continue something

so this is a very broad example let’s

look at a couple examples first

keep your head keep your head sounds

really strange right

so to keep your head doesn’t mean like

hold on to your head

so but the expression keep your head

means

control your emotions so here your head

doesn’t refer to your head as the object

necessarily it refers to your emotions

controlling your emotions to keep your

head

means like to continue your

controlled emotional state so

if someone is getting maybe too excited

or they’re getting really angry you can

say keep your head

let’s look at another example though

keep in your lane

keep in your lane me so it’s like

imagine you’re driving so a lane

is the lines on the road those are the

lines on the road that people can drive

cars in so keep in your lane means

stay in your lane in other words

continue

in your lane we say keep but it doesn’t

mean

hold it means continue in your lane so

if someone else if

maybe the person you’re driving with is

trying to

move to a different lane you can say

keep in your lane just stay there

so it means stay another example might

be keep quiet

keep quiet means stay quiet or continue

being quiet but we just say keep quiet

to mean

continue that state meaning number four

of keep is to persist in a behavior

so to persist means to do something many

many times to continue doing something

many times

in this case a behavior a behavior is

repeating

so let’s look at some examples this guy

keeps calling me

so a guy in this case keeps calling my

phone

keeps he keeps calling me

so repeatedly this person is calling me

repeatedly he keeps

calling me another example we kept

sending messages

until they responded we kept sending

messages

until they responded so meaning we

continuously we repeatedly

sent messages to someone or maybe to a

company

until we received a response so when we

received a response

we stopped sending messages we kept

sending messages until they responded

let’s go on to some variations of the

verb keep

the first variation is to keep an eye on

someone to keep an eye on someone this

expression

means to watch to watch like to watch

someone

closely often too some examples yeah

she’s keeping an eye on me

she always keeps an eye on the screen

our boss keeps an eye on our work

example keep an eye on him he’s up to

something

if someone says keep an eye on him or

like keep an eye on her with that kind

of suspicious intonation

this is kind of a negative expression

like that person is suspicious

so watch that person to keep an eye on

him but

if you say it with an upward intonation

kind of happy like whoa keep an eye on

him

he’s doing exciting things that means

like you should watch that person

and expect something positive like we

have positive expectations for that

person

so this is an important phrase to listen

to the intonation

okay next example of that though i’m

keeping my eye on you

i’m keeping my eye on you so again this

an expression where intonation is

important i’m keeping my eye on you

and i’m keeping my eye on you have very

different meanings so i’m keeping my eye

on you with that downward intonation

sounds suspicious

i’m suspicious of you i’m keeping my eye

on you

if however we emphasize you with that

kind of upward intonation

in the sentence i’m keeping my eye on

you it sounds like i’m expecting

good things from you i’m going to watch

you with positive

expectations the next variation is to

keep

one’s eyes open to keep my eyes open to

keep your eyes open

so to keep your eyes open i use this

actually a lot in like

live streams i think i say like keep

your eyes open for that or like keep an

eye out for that so actually you can use

keep your eyes open or keep an

eye out it’s sort of a weird expression

so let’s start with keep your eyes

open so plural eyes two eyes keep your

eyes open

usually for a thing keep your eyes open

for new ideas

or i’ll be keeping my eyes open for the

exciting announcement

so that means i will be watching for

an announcement or please watch for new

ideas

in the first example sentence so keep

your eyes

open means watch for something watch for

something

the expression keep an eye out

for means the same thing but we use the

singular

eye so keep an eye out for new ideas

keep an eye out for

an exciting announcement we can use

either the singular or the plural eye or

eyes so did you learn a little bit more

about the word

keep i hope so if you have some other

meanings or if you know some other

variations

have any questions or if you want to try

to make an example sentence

thanks very much for watching this

episode of know your verbs and we’ll see

you again soon

bye hi everybody my name is alicia

welcome to know your verbs

in this episode we’re going to talk

about the verb see

so let’s get started

so the basic definition of c is

to perceive with your eyes so this

really means to

use your eyes to get information you use

your eyes to

look at things to maybe understand

things to

gain knowledge by looking at things by

using your eyes

focusing your eyes on things you can

learn things or gain information

gain knowledge so this is to perceive

but the basic

the basic definition though is just to

perceive

with your eyes to use your eyes to

perceive to gain

uh information to gain knowledge

okay let’s see the conjugations for the

verb

see see sees

saw seen seeing

let’s talk about a few additional

meanings of the verb

see first one to form a mental

picture of to form a mental picture of

means to use your mind to create an

image so see has the meaning of creating

image in your mind for example

i can see my childhood home clearly

it was one story and had a big yard

what do you see when you close your eyes

so in these example sentences we’re not

actually using

our eyes to see something in this use of

the word

see we are imagining it and in our minds

we are making a picture so we’re not

actually using our

eyes to see these items instead

maybe there are things we saw in the

past

and we are imagining them mentally we

are creating a mental image of something

so when i say i can see my house clearly

my childhood house it means in my mind

i can form a clear image of the house in

my mind

in the question what do you see it means

when you close your eyes what’s the

mental image that appears

in your mind so c is used to create

mental images to refer to creating

mental images here

next is to examine or to watch

so in this use of the verb see there’s

sort of the nuance of an expectation

we want to use our eyes to watch

something as it changes or to examine a

change as it happens to examine a

behavior

let’s see how the team does in today’s

match

i can’t wait to see what the neighbors

do when they realize we bought a pool

in the example of let’s see how the team

does in today’s match we are talking

about using our

eyes our actual eyes perhaps if we are

actually watching the match if we go to

the game or we see the match on

tv perhaps we are using our eyes

however if we don’t go to the match and

read the score from the game or we s we

hear on the radio

something about the game or we hear the

results of the game

we can still use the verb c c

has this nuance of examining something

so we’re expecting some results

so let’s see in this case doesn’t

only mean using your eyes to examine it

can mean to

examine maybe the results of an or the

results of something to examine the

outcome

of something in the second example

sentence let’s see how the neighbors

react

we see the same thing so it’s the same

it’s the same sort of nuance we are

expecting a reaction we are going to

watch for a reaction

from the neighbors when they realize we

bought a pool so

we want to examine their reaction we

want to examine an outcome we can use

the verb

see though maybe we use our ears like if

the neighbor says oh my gosh they bought

a pool

um that’s sort of examining you’re

you’re waiting for a reaction there we

can still use the verb

let’s see the expression let’s see to

talk about that

so let’s see what happens next for

example next one

to make sure to make sure

please see that this task is finished

he saw that all the arrangements had

been made

in these sentences the verb c is used to

mean

make sure or to confirm something

to ensure something in the first one

please see

that this task is finished we could

replace the verb

c with make sure please make sure that

this task

is finished so that’s a very clear

sentence

please c is just a shortened way of

saying

make sure please see that this task is

finished please ensure that this task is

finished we can replace

the verb here the second example

sentence is the same he saw that all the

arrangements had been made

so he made sure that all the

arrangements had been made

in these example sentences c is

replacing the expression make sure or

ensure so we can use c to mean the same

thing

it’s just a shorter way of saying make

sure

next to find acceptable or

attractive what do you see in him what

do you see in her

i don’t understand what you see in this

restaurant it’s terrible

what are the qualities you perceive in

that person or the qualities that you

can detect in that situation what are

the good points you

identify there we can use the word see

to sort of communicate that quickly and

easily so what do you see

in him what do you see in her is a much

shorter way of saying what do you find

attractive

about him or her what do you find

appealing about him or her

or what characteristics of that person

attract you to that person saying what

do you see in him what

do you see in her is a much shorter way

of saying

what qualities do you find attractive in

that person

the same thing in the restaurant example

i don’t understand what you see

in this restaurant means i don’t

understand what it is that you like

about this restaurant

i think it’s bad so instead we shorten

it to i don’t understand what you see

in this restaurant so c means finding

something

attractive or interesting or appealing

in some way

now let’s talk about some variations so

some slight changes or some additions

to the verb see that change the meaning

first is

see through see through see through

means

to understand the true nature of

something to understand the real

characteristics of something

he saw through my attempts to work with

him and asked me on a date

my boss saw through my lie and scolded

me for faking sickness

so here we see the use in the past tense

in the first example sentence he saw

through

my attempts to work with him meaning he

saw the true

nature of what i was doing so he saw

through my attempts to work with him

and asked me on a date so in this

situation maybe

the person the speaker was trying to

spend time with the he in this situation

and

was asking maybe to work together a lot

but he in the situation saw through

saw to the true nature of the speaker’s

request

saw the true characteristics or the

actual desire there

and ask the speaker on a date so in this

sentence we

understand that there was a different

motivation so something below the

surface

of the of the initial action that was

happening

so um the the other person in the

situation

understood the other motivation

the motivation below the surface

motivation

and so we use saw through or see through

to communicate that so i

he saw through my attempts to work with

him

and he understood there was something

else i wanted to do

in the second example sentence my boss

saw through my lie

and scolded me for faking sickness so

again we see in past

tense my boss saw through my lie so

saw that i was lying in other words saw

through my lie

so saw the true character of my lie i

saw the true nature of my statement

and scolded me so my boss understood

i lied and scolded me for faking

sickness so i got in trouble because i

was

faking an illness faking sickness my

boss

saw through my behavior saw the true

character

understood the true nature of my of my

statement

next is c i to i c i to i

this means to have a common viewpoint or

to agree

we don’t see eye to eye most of the time

i’m glad we see eye to eye about this so

maybe this one is an easy one to

visualize so to see

eye to eye with someone else means

you agree with them you share a

viewpoint with them so you can kind of

imagine

maybe two people standing across from

one another

and if they see eye to eye maybe they

match

their line of sight matches much in the

way that their viewpoints or their

opinions

match exactly exactly so they have kind

of the same

viewpoint they can see eye to eye

so their their their eyesight maybe

matches their opinions match

so to see eye to eye and we can say i’m

glad we see i2 i about this meaning i’m

happy we agree about this

or in a negative we don’t see eye to eye

most of the time means we don’t agree

most of the time or we have different

opinions most of the time

all right so i hope that this video

the verb

questions or comments or if you know

your verbs and we’ll see you again soon

bye-bye we’ll see you again soon

[Music]

we end every video on this channel

almost

with see you again soon but of course i

don’t actually see you

you see me we imagine you we have we

form mental images

in our minds of all of you watching in

the camera there

all those hundreds of thousands of you

guys that’s kind of terrifying

see yeah that was fun

ask not what you can do for your channel

ask what your channel can do for you

what hi everybody welcome back to know

your verbs my name is alicia and in this

episode we’re going to talk about the

verb

ask so let’s get started

the basic definition of the verb ask is

to make a request

to make a request here are the

conjugations

present tense ask asks

past tense asked past participle

asked continuous or progressive asking

let’s talk about some additional

meanings of this verb first

is to require here are some examples

you’re asking too much of us

they asked a lot of him this year so in

these example sentences the verb

ask means to require to require

something from someone else

in the first sentence you’re asking too

much of us means

you’re requiring too much of us or

you’re requiring too much of something

we are able to

do asking too much shortens this

expression so it’s not only required but

like requiring the capabilities or

requiring

something a person or a machine or an

object

is able to do so require yes but also

require plus capabilities

in the second sentence we see this as

well so the second sentence was

they asked a lot of him this year so

they required

a lot of him we can’t quite replace

require

for asked here but we can the nuance

here of

ask is they required a lot of his

capabilities

or they required a lot of work from him

this year

so asked instead condenses all of that

requiring him requiring his

work or his service or something so we

condense all of that into one word

ask here the next meaning is to set as a

price

here are some examples the seller is

asking ten thousand dollars for the boat

she asked for 100

for her old laptop all right in both of

these example sentences

ask shows the price of an item the price

seller chooses for an item or the price

the seller hopes to receive for an item

it’s the price

that the seller has set for something in

the first example we see

asking in the progressive or the

continuous tense the seller is asking

ten thousand dollars

meaning the seller currently hopes to

receive

ten thousand dollars for the boat so if

it’s helpful you can imagine the seller

asking the buyer for this amount the

seller requesting this amount from the

buyer for this amount so the seller is

asking for ten thousand dollars for the

boat uh is but we

we removed the preposition four asking

ten thousand dollars for the boat

is essentially requesting the seller for

ten thousand dollars

so requesting the seller for is like a

long way of saying this expression we

can shorten this to

asking the buyer is asking ten thousand

dollars for

in the second example sentence we see

she asked for one hundred dollars for

her old laptop

so in this example sentence we do see

the preposition 4

she asked for 100 for her old laptop we

can include the preposition for but it

is okay to drop it in these cases where

it is clear that the meaning is a price

for an item

so she asked is past tense so a past

tense situation

she wanted to receive 100 for her old

laptop meaning

she asked for or she requested the

buyer pay 100 for her old laptop so

requested the buyer pay is shortened to

asked for in this case so we can use it

with or without the for

preposition the next meaning is to call

for an answer here are some examples he

asked his boss

about the upcoming changes she asks her

neighbors for help every year

so to ask in these cases it’s

not quite a request in this case but

rather we’re looking for information

we’re looking for an

answer we have a question about

something or we need

some information and so we

inquire for information i suppose you

can think of it like making an

information

request in that way but we’re looking

for some kind of answer

we go to someone to get information to

get an

answer about a question in the first

example he asked his boss about the

upcoming changes

the information he wants is about

these changes maybe at his company so he

asks means he’s looking for an answer he

asked his boss

for information he’s looking for an

answer about something

in the second sentence she asks her

neighbors for help every year

means she’s looking for answers

something she needs

an answer to she’s looking for help

she’s looking for assistance

answers for some problem that she has so

she inquires about information she’s

looking for information so

to get an answer to something like a

problem or an issue you need to solve we

can use

ask next is to invite to invite here are

some examples

i asked some friends to come over this

weekend why don’t you ask your

co-workers to go out for a drink so in

the first example sentence we can

replace

asked in the past tense with invited in

past tense and the meaning stays the

same

i invited some friends to come over this

weekend we can

use invite of course if we want but

invite sounds slightly more formal than

ask

instead of using the more formal invite

we can use the more casual ask like i

asked some people to come over this

weekend

sounds slightly less formal than invited

in the second example sentence the same

thing is true

why don’t you ask your co-workers to go

out for a drink we can replace

ask here with invite why don’t you

invite your co-workers out for a drink

again invite sounds slightly more formal

than ask

so ask sounds a little bit more casual

so it sounds maybe a little bit more

natural and a little more friendly

than the word invite okay

now let’s look at some other words we

can add to ask to make different

meanings

first is ask for it ask for it

this means to behave in a way that

invites punishment

or retribution so retribution means like

it can refer to punishment or it can

refer to it can refer to a reward as

well but in this case

it’s more for a negative reaction a

negative reaction

let’s look at some examples the drunk

guy in the bar is shouting at everyone

he’s really asking for it

your boyfriend broke up with you well

you kind of asked for it you never made

time for him so in these example

sentences

we are we see some behaviors that maybe

invite

punishment or that invite a negative

outcome in the first example a drunk

person in a bar is

shouting at everybody so the speaker

says

he’s really asking for it meaning the

drunk guy is inviting punishment is

inviting a negative outcome because of

his behavior he’s really asking for it

we see that this is this is used in the

progressive form he’s asking for it

meaning that his current behavior the

behavior he is showing

now is inviting punishment or is

inviting a negative

outcome in the second sentence where a

speaker is probably having a

conversation with someone they say

you broke up with your boyfriend well

you kind of asked for it

past tense because you didn’t make time

for him you didn’t make any time for him

shows that perhaps in the past the

listener did not uh

behave in a way that invited a positive

outcome meaning you asked for

your boyfriend to break up with you or

you invited this negative outcome

because of your actions you did not make

time for your boyfriend

therefore he broke up with you so you

did not have the correct behavior you

invited negative

a negative outcome because of your

actions okay the next one

is ask for trouble ask for trouble this

means

to behave in a way that is likely to end

in trouble this is very similar to ask

for it but instead of just receiving

punishment

it could just be a troubling situation

that results

let’s look at some examples that kid is

running around kicking his classmates

he’s just asking for trouble

trying to enter the country without a

passport is just asking for trouble

so in both of these sentences we see

asking for

trouble is used in the progressive tense

so some action

doing some action is likely to

result in a troubling situation in the

future

perhaps it’s not necessarily punishment

but it’s going to cause trouble it’s

going to cause a problem

in the first example a kid running

around kicking his classmates is a bad

behavior

and it’s going to invite trouble in this

case it’s probably going to be

punishment

but to say he’s really asking for it

might suggest something a little bit too

violent like to say

he’s really asking for it sounds a

little bit too much for a little kid

so perhaps he’s asking for trouble

suggests that he’s causing a troubling

situation the kid

might not have like severe strong

punishment as a result of his actions

but

he could end up in trouble because of

his behavior

in the second example trying to enter

the country without a passport is just

asking for trouble

it doesn’t necessarily mean that there

will be a punishment for trying to enter

the country

while it might be likely that trouble

does result or that punishment does

result

it’s more general to say just asking for

trouble so this action

trying to enter the country without a

passport this action

is just asking for trouble is so is

inviting some

troubling situation to occur okay i hope

coffee we’ve asked all the questions

today goodbye

remember verb verb the verb is the word

verb that’s hard to say hi everybody my

name is alicia

welcome back to know your verbs in this

episode we’re going to talk

about the verb work let’s get started

the basic definition of the verb work

is to fulfill duties for money

or for compensation compensation means

payment

so for example salary or an hourly

wage so compensation so to do things

in exchange for money is work this is

a basic definition of the verb work

now let’s look at the different

conjugations of this verb

present tense work works

past tense worked past participle tense

worked progressive tense working

now let’s talk about some additional

meanings of the verb

work meaning one the first additional

meaning

is to function correctly to function

correctly

means an object is behaving

is functioning in the proper way

so let’s look at some examples my

computer isn’t working today

what happened the mechanic fixed my car

and now it works

perfectly meaning two yeah

yeah okay the second definition is

to produce a desired effect or

result or to succeed at something

so some examples of this meaning his

plan is crazy

but i think it might work i don’t think

that’ll work

fun fact i took that example sentence i

don’t think that’ll work from a video

game called

indiana jones and the fate of atlantis i

don’t think that’ll work next one

is to control or to cause

to labor to cause to labor so labor

means like to fulfill your duties

to work as in the first the original

basic meaning of this word so let’s look

at some

examples management worked the team

way too hard last year today we’re

working the computer

remotely

now let’s look at some variations the

first variation

is work on work on work on means

to try to affect or like to try to

influence to try to persuade someone

some examples of this politicians often

work on voters fears so to work

on someone’s fears it’s like they’re

affecting that

they are um trying to persuade

people by focusing on

their fears in this example sentence the

movie

works on viewers sympathy so here

work works on the movie works on means

the movie kind of

is affecting is affecting the sympathy

of the viewer

and then as a result influence happens

a change in emotion happens in this way

to work

on the second variation is work out work

out so work

out means to exercise work out can mean

to lift weights to jog to do

sports whatever work out just means

exercise examples of this uh

i never work out she’s been working out

three days a week for the last year

overachiever

the third variation for this lesson is

work

up work up so work up means

to gradually make progress but

with difficulty examples of this he

worked up to asking the girl

on a date she worked her way up to

becoming ceo

of a company so to work up to something

is like

slowly and with difficulty making

progress

so we can split this phrasal verb like

she worked

her way up or he worked up to

asking the girl on a date so we pair

work

with the preposition up in this example

thanks very much for watching this

episode of know your verbs we’ll see you

again soon

bye we can work it out we’re working now

live to work work to live which will you

be her pen

works that’s true she just drew a

picture of me

do it now have you ever thought about

how much you think about thinking

hi everybody my name is alicia welcome

to know your verbs

in this episode we’re going to talk

about the verb think

so let’s get started

the basic definition of think is to

have in the mind so something you can

keep in your mind

like an idea or an image some thing

you keep in your head something in your

mind something in your brain

so to keep in the mind is think to think

this is the basic definition of

think so let’s look at the conjugations

of the verb

think present tense think thinks

past tense thought past participle

thought progressive or continuous tense

thinking think thinks

thought thought thinking

okay let’s look at some additional

meanings of the verb

think first is to consider or to

reflect on or to ponder it means

consider something carefully or spend

time

considering something so ponder means to

think

for a long time or to think hard about

something

so consider carefully reflect on

examples can i have a day to think about

this

he’s thinking about what to do next so

in these example sentences can i have a

day to think about this

taking one day to reflect on something

like before you make a decision

is a pretty common thing to do before

like a big decision so can i have a day

to think about this

means can i have a day to consider this

carefully

or can i have a day to ponder this in a

second example sentence he’s thinking

about what to do next

means he’s considering carefully his

next step

he’s considering carefully what he

should do next

so thinking is used in the progressive

tense here

to show that he is currently at this

time

considering something carefully but to

consider carefully we can make

shorter and use the verb thinking he’s

thinking about what to do

next okay next is to create something

by thinking or to create something by

considering

we usually use this with the word up

after the verb

think we thought up so many crazy party

ideas in college

she thought up a plan for product

promotion so both of these example

sentences mean to create

something by considering it in your mind

so in the first example sentence we

thought up crazy ideas for parties in

college

means we designed something using our

brains we

considered something and created an idea

we created something

by thinking so to think up blah blah

blah so

we thought up crazy party ideas so we

designed crazy party ideas by

thinking about them by considering

things in our minds

in the second example sentence we see

the same meaning but for

a business situation she thought up a

plan

for product promotion so in this case

past tense she

thought up she designed a plan for

product promotion but

when we say designed um it sounds maybe

she planned something on a computer

perhaps when we use

she thought up it means she used her

mind she

considered the ideas she had and created

a plan

in her mind for promotion of the product

so thought up uses the mind to create

something

next is to have as an expectation to

have as an expectation to expect

something i didn’t think you’d arrive so

quickly

we thought it would take a lot longer to

finish dinner

so in the first example sentence we

didn’t think you’d arrive

so quickly it means the speaker expects

that the listener

would take longer to arrive or the

listener was going to arrive

later than they actually did so the

speaker

the speaker in this case had the

expectation

that the listener was going to arrive

later so they use the negative

we didn’t think you’d arrive so quickly

so we didn’t think we didn’t expect you

derive so quickly we can replace the

verb

think with expect here and it creates

the same meaning the same nuance really

but think sounds a little bit less

formal than expect

so we didn’t think you’d arrive so

quickly the second example sentence

is we thought it would take a lot longer

to finish dinner again

we expected we had the expectation

it would take a lot longer to finish

dinner we can replace the verb

thought past tense with the past tense

expected we expected it would take a lot

longer to finish dinner

so in this way think or in past tense

thought

is used in exactly the same way as

expected here

the next meaning is to consider

suitability

to consider suitability let’s look at

some examples

i’ve never thought of him like a manager

we’re thinking of her for a higher

position

so in the first sentence i’ve never

thought of him

like a manager in this way thought means

i’ve never

understood him to be suitable for the

position

of manager that’s a very long way of

explaining this sentence

but to condense everything we use the

word

thought i’ve never thought of him as a

manager means i’ve never

considered him to potentially be

suitable

as a manager in the second example

sentence we’re thinking of her for a

higher position

it means we’re considering whether or

not she is suitable for a higher

position

at her job or a higher position at her

company so

in this way thinking in the progressive

tense means we are considering her

suitability

for a position a higher level position

so you’ll notice that the two example

sentences included here are related to

work

you’ll see though that this this meaning

tends to be used a lot with

uh jobs and maybe political positions so

kind of something

um maybe promotion related so promotion

related or kind of hierarchy related

you’ll often hear this

in work situations employment situations

let’s look at some variations some other

words we can attach

to think to create different meanings

first is

think better of think better of think

better of means to reconsider and make a

better decision or make an improved

decision it means to consider something

again

and change your decision hopefully to

make a

an improved decision examples i wanted

to say something

but i thought better of it and kept my

mouth shut

we’ll think better of you if you tell

the truth so in both of these sentences

there’s a reconsideration someone is

considering something again

and making an improved decision because

of that reconsideration

so in the first example sentence i

wanted to say something we see in past

tense i wanted to say something

but i thought better of it

so it in this case is the thing i wanted

to say

in the first part of the sentence i

thought better of it means i

reconsidered it

and decided against my my first

inclination

i decided not to do the first thing i

was thinking about

and i kept my mouth shut so in this case

my mouth remained closed in other words

i reconsidered

my initial action the action i initially

wanted to do

in the second sentence we’ll think

better of you if you tell the truth

we see it’s it’s used for future we will

think better of you if you tell the

truth meaning

if you tell the truth our opinion of you

will

improve we will think better of you um

so tell the truth and we’ll consider you

again

essentially and our opinion of you will

improve if you do this

the next variation is think much of

think much of this means to have a

positive

view of or to approve of

examples he doesn’t think much of his

professor

we didn’t think much of last night’s

dinner we see

in the first example sentence he didn’t

think much of his professor means he

didn’t really approve of his professor

or he didn’t have a very positive view

of his professor

so a shorter way to explain that feeling

is he didn’t

think much of his professor in the

second example sentence

we didn’t think much of last night’s

dinner this means again we didn’t really

approve of last night’s dinner or we

don’t have a very

positive view or a very positive opinion

of last night’s dinner

these are rather long so we can condense

it too we didn’t think much of

last night’s dinner so i hope that this

for other good things too thanks very

much for watching this episode of know

your verbs and i will see you again

soon bye bye oh i think that your

thought about

my thought is the thinking thought what

my name is alicia

from this episode first is

perfect i’m thinking about summer

gossip let’s go oh my god

so the first phrase is

oh my god so so oh my god

so is a introductory phrase you can use

start your topic with like a surprise

factor so you say oh my god

and then so is your transition phrase so

for example oh my god so i have to tell

you about this movie i saw or

oh my god so i saw my neighbor in the

shopping mall this morning or

oh my god so did you see my new dog

it’s kind of a weird one usually it’s

about a person not about a dog but who

knows

you won’t believe what happened to me

the other day

the next expression is you won’t believe

what happened to me the other day

you won’t believe what happened to me

the other day

meaning something happened to you

and you think it’s going to be a

surprise

to the person listening to you you won’t

believe what happened to me the other

day

so it’s a very fast phrase because

it sounds like you want to share very

quickly like you won’t believe what

happened to me

you can drop the other day if you want

or you said you can say you won’t

believe what happened to me this morning

you won’t believe what happened to me

last night

you won’t believe what happened to me

this weekend you won’t believe what

happened to me over my winter vacation

so that you won’t believe what happened

to me gets very very quick and short

so examples uh you won’t believe what

happened to me the other day

i ran into my ex-boss or you won’t

believe what happened to me the other

day

i tripped and fell down a flight of

stairs or

uh you won’t believe what happened to me

the other day i got

a new parrot

sure i don’t know maybe one of you can

use that

guess what the next phrase is very short

the next phrase is like an

exclamation so an excited statement and

a question

guess what guess what so

guess what is inviting the listener to

guess what happened to you

guess what the full question would be

guess what happened or guess what

happened to me

but we only say guess what so guess what

and sometimes the listener guesses

and sometimes the listener just says

what usually the listener just says

what uh as so meaning you should

continue the story

so if you say guess what i quit my job

guess what i saw my best friend

with a new guy

i haven’t seen before another example

uh guess what i got a new car something

like that so

some kind of shocking like um difficult

to guess

situation i haven’t told you about this

yet

the next expression is i haven’t told

you about this yet i haven’t

told you about this yet so have not

becomes

haven’t i haven’t told you about this

yet so maybe you’ve

told you have told other people but

this specific person maybe you have

not told that person your news or some

information

yet but this yet implies

you are planning to or you want to tell

them this so

it’s it’s kind of creates a little

suspense i haven’t told you about this

yet

so we could use this like i haven’t told

you about this yet i’m going to france

next summer

or i haven’t told you about this yet but

i broke up with my boyfriend last night

or i haven’t told you about this yet but

i’m throwing a big party for my

co-worker this weekend can you come

other examples i haven’t told you about

this yet i saw my boss

out for dinner with someone who’s not

his wife oh my god that’s not true

that’s not true or i haven’t told you

about this yet

i heard that the company is gonna

go bankrupt also not true

okay so those are some pretty juicy

juicy gossip that’s an expression we use

we say

juicy gossip is something that’s like

really really interesting

gossip or really interesting story about

people we say

juicy gossip for that have you heard

about

the next expression is have you heard

about blah blah blah

have you heard about can be followed

with a noun phrase have you heard about

a person you can use a person or have

you heard about

a situation you can use both you can use

an object too so have you heard about

the new iphone or have you heard about

the new

office policies um you can use that

um for pretty much anything um you want

to inform your listener about so

have you heard about is usually said

very quickly

have you heard about so the you becomes

shortened

to yeah have you heard about have you

heard about blah blah blah

so have you heard about the new

secretary have you heard about

our new boss or have you heard about my

co-worker quitting his job

have you heard about the neighbors above

they’re moving so you can use people

here for

gossip expressions or you can use

objects um

in this expression just to introduce

something new very useful phrase

have you heard about my mom

sorry mom i don’t know why you came into

that one okay

so the other day the next expression

is kind of like the beginning to a story

so maybe this can be for gossip maybe it

can just be

like a story something interesting or

maybe boring

that happened to you the expression is

so the other day

so the other day so the other day

the other day here means not today some

other day

which day it doesn’t really matter it’s

not really

important but we say the other day

someday in the past

this expression is used for so we can

say so the other day

i was sitting at my desk in the office

when my manager came and

asked if he could speak to me

or so the other day i was shopping and i

ran into my ex-boyfriend

or so the other day i was renting a car

and the former president of the united

states

came into the car rental shop what all

right so the other day just some day in

the past

so i was talking with and

the next one you can use um maybe for

gossip

sometimes but also you can use for

making plans

it’s so i was talking with someone

and blah blah so i was talking with

someone

means you were having a conversation at

another time

with a person and you want to kind of

report information or

share something from that conversation

with the person listening now

so i might say so i was talking with

risa and i think that we should plan a

party for this weekend what do you think

so i was talking with my

team about this and i think that we

should make some changes

so that’s a very kind of everyday work

situation

use of this phrase um but you can also

use it for gossip like

so i was talking to my best friend and i

think i’m gonna move

or i was talking to my parents and i

think

it’s best if we break up so it can be

for plans it can be for gossip it can be

for just

any conversation plus a report

what’s up with the next expression is

kind of a little like mysterious

then the expression is what’s up with

blah blah blah

usually what’s up with person for gossip

meaning there’s like the nuance here is

there’s some

problem or it seems like something’s

wrong with this person they’re unhappy

they’re sad they’re angry

some kind of negative emotion we use

this so it’s like

what’s up with stevens i haven’t heard

from him lately what’s up with your

brother he seems really upset or what’s

up with your

neighbor why is he so noisy or what’s up

with your boss

he’s so strict so it sounds like

there’s some problem we usually use this

intonation what’s up with

what’s up with to introduce somebody who

has a problem we don’t say

what’s up it’s not that it’s not that

sort of hello

um expression it’s a it’s an expression

for a problem you can also use a noun

phrase that is not a person here like

what’s up with this new office policy or

what’s up with this new rule at work or

what’s up with this new item on the menu

at this restaurant it’s super weird

so what’s up with blah blah blah has

sort of a negative nuance you can use it

for people

to talk about strange behavior what’s up

with

you have you heard from

lately the next expression is have you

heard from blah blah blah lately

have you heard from person lately have

you heard from stevens lately

i haven’t seen him have you heard from

your mom lately have you heard from your

dad lately have you heard from your

brother lately have you heard from your

landlord lately i don’t know why you

hear from your landlord but

have you heard from someone lately there

is sort of

an ex like a little bit of an

expectation

that you are in contact with the person

involved in this sentence like you have

some relationship maybe it’s a family

relationship romantic relationship

professional relationship

there’s some relationship with this

person and

lately it’s like have you heard from

them recently

lately in the last few days in the last

few weeks

so you can use this if for example you

are

looking for someone or you’re worried

about someone you can use this here

um you can also use it just just to

check in

about some other person without asking

that person directly

so like if i want to ask about i’m using

risa in my example risa is our japanese

channel host

um if i want to ask about how risa is

but i don’t want to ask risa i know

maybe she’s busy or

i don’t know for some reason i it’s

difficult to talk to her

i can ask like my co-worker i can say

hey have you heard from risa lately

it seems she’s really busy or have you

heard from so and so lately it seems

they’re busy

so if i want to ask about another person

but i don’t want to bother this person

or that something makes it difficult

i can use have you heard from blah blah

blah recently or

lately to ask about them very useful

phrase

i have to tell you about next

expression um the next expression is i

have to tell you about

blah blah blah i have to tell you so

have to becomes

have to i have to tell you about it has

a nice

sound i have to tell you about blah blah

blah or i have to tell you about

something so i have to tell you about my

weekend i have to tell you about stevens

i have to tell you about my mom i have

to tell you about my boyfriend i should

tell you about my girlfriend

whatever it is some person used at the

end of this sentence

creates a nuance like there’s exciting

news about that person

or i have to tell you about this thing

that happened you can use a situation at

the end of the sentence too

but you’re using i have to at the

beginning of this sentence

so that sounds like it’s really

important like i feel

it’s so important it’s my responsibility

to tell you because

this is so exciting of course you can

use this in more boring

situations as well like i have to tell

you about the new office policy

you can use it in that way with a very

flat intonation

but for gossip purposes use i have to

tell you about

that sounds really good so what do you

have to tell somebody about

i have to tell you about this new idea i

have for a business or

i have to tell you about what happened

to me last night okay

so there are these really exciting ways

that we can introduce

things that happened or that we can talk

about people or whatever

okay ten words for talking about space

planet the first word is planet planet

so planets are those

really really big things that we have in

our solar system

now there are officially eight because

pluto is no longer considered a planet

in my example sentence pluto used to be

considered a planet

star the next word is star

star so stars are those very very bright

objects that you can see

in the sky sometimes at night the

closest star to us

is the sun the sun is a star and we can

see a lot of other stars if we look up

into the night sky sometimes

in a sentence it’s hard to see stars

from big cities

solar system the next expression is

solar system

solar system so solar system in our case

here on planet earth

refers to the system of planets and

objects

which are near our star so our solar

system now there are eight planets in

our solar system used to be nine planets

sorry again pluto

eight planets in our solar system and

then we can talk about

other objects which maybe enter our

solar system like

like comets for example or a meteor

or some other events might happen in

space

within our solar system so our solar

system is the area

surrounding our sun and our planets that

we know of

in a sentence mercury is part of our

solar system

comet the next expression is comet a

comet is actually an icy body

that is uh slightly melting and then

releasing gases so that’s what produces

that look

a comet okay in a sentence comets are

really cool

meteor oh right so yes the next word is

meteor meteor

or just meteor so essentially meteors

are different from comets because comets

are made of ice

meteors however are made of rock so

these are two different kinds of objects

that can

that move around in space in a sentence

lots of meteors burn up before they pass

through the atmosphere

meteorite the next word is meteorite

meteorite so this is an important

distinction that many

people don’t know about actually this

drives me crazy too so a meteor is the

is the space rock it’s in space or it’s

in the atmosphere

a meteorite however is the rock if

if the meteor makes it if the meteor can

pass through the earth’s atmosphere

and fall to the surface of the earth

that rock then is called a meteorite

so in space in the atmosphere it’s a

meteor

when it falls to earth it is a meteorite

that becomes a meteorite when it hits

the earth

so fun facts okay that’s the difference

between the two

in a sentence have you ever seen a

meteorite supernova

supernova supernova so the explosion of

a star

is a huge event a supernova is the name

of it so the star

explodes and that’s what we call it it’s

called a supernova a star explosion

in a sentence supernovas must be

incredible things

black hole ah alright the next

expression is

black hole black hole black holes are

the subject of a lot of study

they have intense gravitational pull so

meaning they have

very strong gravity black holes will

pull other objects

into them it is said that like uh

time stops in a black hole and like if

you get too close to a black hole if you

get too close to the event horizon of a

black hole you yourself will be pulled

into that hole too it’s pretty crazy

so like the event horizon is the point

at which um there’s no there’s no

turning back

from like you can’t you can’t escape

essentially the gravitational pull

of a black hole once you’re within the

event horizon of that space it’s like

crazy

you’re done for all this kind of stuff

so interesting so

in a sentence black holes are mysterious

galaxy okay uh all right so the next

word is

galaxy galaxy before we talked about the

expression

solar system so solar system is kind of

our

region of space the region we’re

familiar with but

the next step up so if you think of the

solar system as kind of your

neighborhood a little bit

you could think of maybe the galaxy as

like your

city or your country maybe it’s sort of

the next step out

so a galaxy is made up of lots and lots

of stars maybe other planets other solar

system many other solar systems in one

galaxy so i think yeah we belong to the

milky way galaxy

i believe in a sentence our galaxy is

made of lots of different stars and

planets

earth the next expression is earth

earth earth is our planet earth is the

planet we

live on earth is yeah habitable meaning

humans can live here

this word i included it in this

vocabulary list because it is a very

good word to practice your pronunciation

it is the word

earth earth that r and the th sound

can be difficult to pronounce together

er f

earth so this is a great word to use to

practice your pronunciation

earth so in a sentence our planet is

called

earth ten words for talking about sleep

let’s go to wake up

the first word is to wake up to wake up

is to open your eyes probably in your

bed or the place where you are sleeping

to wake up

is to uh to become

conscious to become awake every day you

wake up uh presumably hopefully

in a sentence i woke up three times last

night

to get up to get out of bed all right

the next

word is to get up or to get out of bed

so that means to physically move your

body

from your bed out of bed to stand up

from your bed to get

out of your bed we say to get up or to

get

out of bed in a sentence i got up at

eight o’clock this morning

to snooze the next word is to snooze

so we have to snooze and alarm and also

to snooze so to snooze means to take a

short

sleep to have a short sleeping time or

to snooze an alarm is when your alarm

goes off in the morning

you have a button most alarm clocks have

some button

you can press so the alarm will turn on

again in like you know

five or ten minutes or something so to

snooze an alarm is to

like to ask your alarm to wake you up

again

a few minutes later that’s uh to snooze

so we have to snooze an alarm

and two snooze meaning like a short

light sleep

in a sentence i always snooze my alarm

at least

once that is usually true to over

sleep the next word is to over

sleep to over sleep means to sleep too

much or to sleep

late actually no it doesn’t mean to

sleep late

to sleep late means just to sleep until

late time in the day uh oversleep means

sleeping beyond the time you wanted to

get up so for example

if my alarm is set for eight o’clock

but i wake up at nine o’clock i

overslept

i slept beyond my wake-up time so we can

use oversleep to talk about

times when you sleep too much you sleep

more than your body needs you to so

maybe your body needs

depending on the person like six to nine

hours or so

but if you sleep like 14 hours we can

say that’s over

sleeping you’re sleeping too much that’s

the nuance here in a sentence

i overslept on my first day of work

nap the next word is nap nap

is a short sleep so a nap is maybe 30

minutes

one hour just a short sleep a short rest

a lot of people will take a nap in the

afternoon for example

or maybe children actually take naps for

example

in preschool or when they’re very very

young they have an

afternoon nap a short sleep like yeah

just like an hour or so i imagine

in a sentence i love naps actually i do

like naps i don’t like naps because when

i take a nap

it becomes asleep it’s always like i

wake up four hours later and i’m like

okay well i’ve destroyed my sleep

schedule

dream the next word is dream

dream so dreams are those those visions

those

images you see those maybe experiences

it seems like you have when you are

asleep

in a sentence i always have weird dreams

nightmare so the next word is nightmare

nightmare is a word which means bad

dream or scary dream

negative dream so uh children

maybe have nightmares a lot they wake up

crying or

they’re really upset by nightmares

monsters uh

terrifying things happening and so on in

a sentence

do you ever have nightmares to go to bed

the next word is to go to bed so before

we talked about to get up or to get out

of bed this is the opposite to go

to bed means to get in your bed to

to try to go to sleep to go to bed

in a sentence i usually go to bed fairly

late

to hit the hay to hit the sack the next

expression

is kind of a s i don’t know a slang

expression uh we have to hit the hay

and to hit the sack these both mean to

go to bed

um they both mean to try to fall asleep

but we just use them in more casual

situations the image here of hit

the hay is with your body hitting hay

laying down in hay i believe

historically because uh hay was used to

stuff

um things that people slept on um so

that’s why

we have this expression to hit the hay

with your body

same thing for to hit the sack so a sack

full of something soft

to sleep on is where this expression

comes from

in a sentence i think i’m gonna hit the

hay to fall asleep

the next expression it is to fall asleep

to fall asleep you’re in bed and you

finally

you lose consciousness you you stop

being aware you are asleep in that

moment we say

you fall asleep in a sentence it takes

me a long time to fall asleep

all right want to speak real english

from your first lesson

top 10 must know prepositions and

conjunctions for english learners

i threw the ball to my dad

that it’s going towards something

i wrote a letter to my mother

i went to the mall i

went to the park my mom asked me to go

to the store to buy some bread

to a destination to a person

from from from is the opposite of two

from implies where it’s coming from the

place of

origin so if i’m going to the mall

i’m coming from my house this letter

is from my daughter from

how long does it take you to get from

your house

to your job to and from

they go together with with

with it means together with something

at around 1 in the morning unfortunately

i get very little sleep

at specifies a time or a place

let’s go to the movies at two in the

afternoon

um i’m at home right now where are you

we decided to meet at the beach

it’s a pinpoint of time or location

means you are inside of something or

in the middle of something it means

being immersed in something

i am in bed right now the cat

french fries are here and i like to put

ketchup on them

the man is on the roof the car

is on the street the motorcycle

is on my nerves but

but i think i remember her name but i’m

not sure

but is a way to add a negative to a

sentence

so for example i really love eating cake

but i don’t eat it often because it’s

not healthy

i’d love to go to the movies with you

but

i have too much work to do i really like

you

but i don’t want to date you and

and and is a very common word you will

hear

all the time it’s a way of adding on

a new subject or thing to your sentence

i love candy and pizza

i’m hungry and i’m tired my friend moved

to spain

and i moved to canada i love playing

outside

and i love being inside and

is a way to add on a new subject or

thing to what you’re talking about so

so i have a toothache so i went to the

dentist

so is a way of adding an example

another way to say because of this i did

this

you say something and then you add so

and then what follows is the effect so

there’s the cause

so the effect so i was feeling very

hungry

so i had some pizza this video is going

to be pizza themed everyone

apparently i was really tired so i took

a nap

i was in the mood for some adventure so

i got on an

airplane and flew to mexico that sounds

nice

or or or is a way of presenting

a choice so for example

you can either have pizza or

you can have candy i don’t know if i

should go to the movies

or if i should go to the mall which

color do you like better

red or green it presents

differences of choice today’s video

is on words americans overuse i haven’t

seen these words yet but

apparently it’s going to be a series of

words that we as americans i’m american

we overuse we use too often so let’s

start

uh oh the first word is definitely

definitely is definitely a word that

americans overuse we use it to

put emphasis at the end of a phrase to

put emphasis at the end of a sentence

as in oh that party last week was so

great

yeah definitely or to agree with

somebody like that

uh oh god literally oh

just in the last few days i’ve seen the

word literally

so many times on the internet and used

in just such

stupid ways the word literally

means actually or truly something this

is literally the best hamburger i’ve

ever eaten

so literally meaning truly or actually

would mean that in that person’s entire

life that is the best hamburger they’ve

ever eaten

however it gets misused a lot in

sentences

like george bush was literally

supporting the war in iraq or something

like that taking a phrase like that

literally would have to mean that you

know the president former president

would be

you know physically supporting a war

with his body

onward onward hilarious

hilarious is the next word i like to use

the word hilarious when something is

actually funny

um hilarious of course means something

that is really funny super funny

it’s a step above funny maybe two steps

three steps i don’t know

however people like to use this word in

place of laughter

so for example friends are talking and

instead of just

laughing the friend will say that’s

hilarious

well if it’s so hilarious just laugh oh

this must be the last one

because this is the worst one this word

is like

um i’ve probably said it several times

already today for the for the purposes

of this video

um the word like is used as a filler

word so

it’s the same as something such as

um or uh or hmm for example

we use like as a filler word when we’re

trying to think of something

it’s not uncommon to hear the word

repeated like three

four five times in a row when someone is

thinking they’ll say

oh you know that party that i went to

like like

uh like uh like do you know who was

there

it just invades your speech sometimes

when you’re trying to think of something

and no other filler words come out but

the word like does

ah this wasn’t the last word there is

another one

seriously seriously is used

oh it’s good for any time you receive

bad news

um well not from your boss it’s a really

casual word

but if you hear something um like your

friend lost their job

and you can sympathize with them or

maybe empathize with them by saying

seriously

oh that’s too bad or oh tell me like all

your problems oh my god i just use like

oh god oh i hate myself want to speed up

重复你听到的短语

再次响亮

并再次复习所有课程

englishclass101.com 来掌握它们

完全地

先慢慢读行，然后重新读

和

提高你的速度设置小和

与您的可衡量的学习目标

个人截止日期

尝试更努力的课程来挑战自己

并改进

更快停止翻译的 10 种方法

在你的脑海里让我们开始吧

用英语识别你周围的物体

第一种停止翻译的方法

你的头是识别物体

用你的目标语言在你身边，所以如果

你在学习

英语，这意味着你看

房间周围的物体看看

事物

在你的生活中不要想他们

母语优先

用你的目标语言思考它们

首先，如果我环顾房间，我会看到

一台电脑

我不应该认为我的母语

我应该认为我的目标语言

这么说

从项目和情况开始

在你的日常生活中

如果我用英语说计算机，也许我

应该说电脑

在日语中，我应该说不，我不

知道

water 用英语我应该说 omizu in

日本人所以

开始关联你的单词

日常生活中的目标语言

现在所以如果你正在学习英语

意味着开始熟悉

事物

在你的日常生活中用英语

重复您听到母语人士的短语

利用

提示二是重复短语

你听到的

母语人士使用 so 如果你是

观看

例如这个频道，或者你是

看一个

电视节目或电影呃听路

那

以母语为母语的人会说这些短语，如果

你听到一个你从未听过的短语

前

或者你听到一个有趣的组合

字数

尝试自己重复它们，不要只是

听

如果你在一个

公共空间，对你来说很难

要做到这一点

在你有感觉的地方好好练习

更舒适

也许如果你有一些私人空间

练习只是重复他们让你的嘴

习惯于这样说

扬声器

如果你从来没有，母语人士会这样做

其实说

如果你只接受的话

只听

而你实际上并没有生产

语言有点难

练习并真正磨练你的

提高你的发音

发音

所以当你听母语者的时候

尝试重复

在他们之后，例如，如果你是

学习英语

您可以尝试在此视频后重复

你可以在事情之后重复

我说是因为也许我正在使用

表达或我正在使用某个

一系列的词汇单词在一起

母语人士的方式

尝试

练习以母语为母语的方式

把他们的话放在一起，所以试着

重复

在母语人士之后，尤其是当

你在找

在媒体上，你可以这样做

看书也可以尝试阅读

出去

大声朗读有趣的书

你找到的或者可能是的东西

对你来说很难

非常好的练习技巧

你不能的地方

逃到你的母语中

无法逃脱的情况

你的母语

本质上意味着让自己沉浸在

课程

去那个国家或去一个

你所在的地方

只会说那种语言很

对你们中的一些人来说很难

完全理解，但如果在你的生活中

你可以在你的

你房间里的图书馆

在你家的某个地方呆上一个小时

或者我不知道也许有一天我不知道

你的日程安排是怎样的，但是

如果你能创造一个情境或创造

你拥有的环境

别无选择，只能使用那种语言

你不能逃避意味着你不能

回到使用您的母语作为

不能使用原生的拐杖

语言

它迫使你使用的语言

你在学习

所以当然如果你有幸

住在国内或去

生活在人们说话的地方

你正在学习的语言

很棒，但你必须出去

与您必须放置的人互动

自己在一个地方

你别无选择，只能说话

这非常困难而且非常可怕而且

很尴尬

起初，但如果你花时间找到

地方和创造环境

对你来说很舒服

你觉得舒服的地方

错误和提问非常

这对您的学习过程很有价值

实际上是我完全做的事情

我完全做到了

我的日语很长时间都不是很好

时间

但后来我开始交朋友

不能说话

英语呃其实我就是这样做的

通过寻找爱好有一个

我的爱好

加入了一个组我实际上加入了一个

我可以学习如何做的学校

那个爱好

一切都只在

日本人

我班上的人只会说话

日本人居多

然后也许我们会出去

深夜或在路上的饮料和食物

周末，每个人都只说话

日本人

如果我什至无法沟通

只是在日语中我没有希望

保持这种友谊

所以它强迫我学习它强迫我学习

想想他们使用的词

并尝试学习那些单词

模式

以及如何自然生产它们

我自己，所以我在学习词汇

字

我周围的人正在使用和

学习如何应用它们

靠我自己，这是可能的，因为

我无处可逃

在这些情况下，请尝试这样做

即使你可以自己做

房子我认为它非常有帮助

在目标中观看电视和电影

没有字幕的语言

秘诀四是看电视和

您的目标语言的电影

没有字幕没有字幕所以

我觉得看字幕可以

非常有益

所以如果我在看什么或者你

想看带字幕的东西

在

很棒，但我有时发现我可以

就我而言，我想太多了

阅读字幕

我忘了听所以也许如果

你看过电影

用你的目标语言几次

有字幕的尝试打开

字幕

关闭并考虑类似的角色

肢体语言他们使用的词语

嗯，你以后可以随时查看

查找你知道你不知道的词

在字典里知道

但试着在你专注的地方做

完全地

在人们使用他们的方式

话尝试

不使用字幕所以嗯那种

玩弄一下，如果

有一个词对你来说很难

听到

你实际上可以打开字幕

就像

用电影的母语呃

以及

这就是我做过的事情，如果

呃，如果我想学日语

当实际的话非常有用

说

用日语出现在屏幕上

有时对我来说更容易

如果我在视觉上看到一个词

我同时听到了

另一种方式

探索如何使用电视和电影

是实际打开关闭

像这样的字幕

屏幕上的文字

电影的母语

所以，嗯，所以这是两点

一对一

看电影没有字幕的意思

您的母语字幕和

提示二是看电影

嗯，没有隐藏字幕

到你有空，所以给我一个

第二这里

所以我明白字典

尤其是电子词典，我们

现在将它们放在我们的手机上非常

很方便

嗯，当然使用它们很重要

他们是一个很好的资源

有

然而，真正困扰我的一件事

我认为是有害的

对学生有帮助是当呃学生

正在上课

他们正在练习对话

他们在谈话中达成了共识

他们不知道他们想要的词

在他们的母语中使用他们知道的

语

他们不知道怎么说

他们的目标语言

他们拿出他们的字典，他们说

对这个人

听他们的练习伙伴

在他们的课程中，他们有一个

有限的时间

一会儿，然后他们查了一下

在他们的手机上

几秒钟的流动

谈话停止

然后他们说一句话，就像

哇

不，那不是你没有那个

你没有的能力

在对话中做到这一点的能力

与母语人士

大多数人都喜欢去银行

试着开一个银行账户你是吗

真的会拿出你的字典

和

坐在那里试着和你交流

知道一会儿就一会儿

当你查找每个你不知道的单词时

不，或者如果你这样做，那不是真的

对话

所以改为尝试使用不同的

战略

我的意思是如果你找到一个词

不知道在谈话中

在你的谈话中解释这个词

伙伴

也许他们知道这个词，如果你是

与母语人士交谈，这是一个

他们有机会

教你一句话我发现当人们

慢慢来

教我一个词我记得这个词

很多

比只在我的

字典所以

试着抗拒也许你可以带来一个

字典到你的课，但不要使用

它或尝试

不要在你的谈话中使用它

练习它只是

它破坏了对话的流程

所以与其

练习描述的技巧

您想使用的词汇和

学习如何问一个词的意思

或学习如何

询问你的词汇

这样的伙伴

你可以使用像 ah what’s 这样的表达方式

意思是blah blah的词

或者你知道是这件事

这个和这个和这个所以

这是你的机会

描述某物的特征或

找到一种不同的方式来使用你的

你可以使用的肢体语言

不管你有很多工具，但试试

不要在 a 中使用字典

对话，因为它不现实

训练对常见问题的回答

我认为数字六是一个快速的数字

六个提示我的第六个就是

火车

对常见问题的回答火车

对常见问题的回答

所以例如一个非常常见的问题

英语是嘿，你好吗

你应该知道如何回答这个问题

问题只有一个默认响应

嘿，你怎么样

如果需要你我很好

很久才回答问题嘿嘿

你好吗

你需要练习我认为这是一个

不错哦

一个很好的指标，例如

有时我问

学生一个像他们这样的问题

还没有

得到了如何回应的想法

然而

他们反应不快

我说

呃，你好吗，他们说是的，

然后他们想，他们走了，我是

呃，我很好，就像

这是一个很常见的问题，所以想想

关于

只是您可以的默认响应

吐出你可以快速说

如果你周末过得怎么样，或者嘿

发生了什么事或者你想做什么

晚餐

今晚想想就像一把

只是对那些的一些回应

问题并培训他们

快点你好吗我很好

你好吗我没事

你还好吗有三个所以

这只是对那些的训练反应

没有理由的问题

对像你好吗这样的问题感到惊讶

就像这是一个非常常见的问题，所以

对于那些常见的问题

训练回应我们有一个

一堆视频

尤其是初学者级别的视频

您可以做的一些示例响应

所以不要被这些小东西卡住

问题只是训练一些回答

练习一些反应，直到他们感觉到

对你来说很自然，它会节省你的时间

它会帮助询问的人

问题也向前推进

对话

[音乐]

用不提供的材料学习

翻译

下一个技巧是用材料学习

那不

提供翻译所以我的意思是

如果您使用的是工作表和/或一些

一种教科书

或其他任何东西，它有你的目标

语言你正在学习的语言

它旁边有你的母语

虽然这很有用

我觉得如果你能学习你的

材料

仅使用您的目标语言，然后

的简化解释

更详细的点也在你的目标中

语

可以更好一点所以我不

想说你应该只学习

事物

用你的目标语言，什么都没有

你的母语当然是因为

有时看起来会有所帮助

一个词或理解一个语法

用你的母语指出

但在可能的情况下，如果你能找到

提供的东西

目标中的简化解释

语言真的很有帮助

因为你又在想你是

学习像一个更简单的人一样思考

更基本的

关于你正在学习的语言的水平

用你正在学习的语言

这真的很好，所以

寻找一些可以使用的材料

没有翻译的地方也许你

可以练习

当然有书和有

书面材料

还可以像视频素材一样

好吧

有多种不同的方式

你可以嗯

查找目标语言的材料

嗯

就像在视频和电视中一样

想想有

人们的词汇水平

在您正在使用的媒体内容中使用

观看

嗯，媒体内容是为谁准备的

儿童年轻人成人

uh 扬声器的速度

说话就像我有能力一样

更改难度级别

基于语速的视频

我使用的词汇以及如何使用

许多人喜欢我使用的成语和东西

所以我可以制作一个非常困难的视频

我们可以做一个非常像一个非常

困难的视频系列

通过提高我们的词汇使用水平或通过

说得很快

或者你可能会在我们的英语中看到

三分钟系列

我们也可以使用非常简单的词汇

并以低语速说话，所以

也许现在这是一个非常

中级视频所以请思考

关于那个

所以不仅是书面材料，而且

也适用于您的视听材料

想一想

嗯你的听众是谁的水平

材料等

真的很有趣

有助于思考

你的目标语言

语言好了，我们差不多完成了

学习短语除了单

词汇

下一个技巧是学习短语

除了单字词so

是的，当然词汇很重要

但

我个人觉得它非常有用

看看一个词汇是怎样的

用在短语中，因为有时

在短语中使用它可以帮助您

了解该词汇的细微差别

单词

真的很好所以如果我喜欢一个词

例如用英语疯狂

视情况而定

使用了疯狂这个词

它可能意味着不同的东西

可能意味着像一个精神上的人

混淆或混淆它也可能意味着

非常好的东西可能意味着

非常糟糕的事情

所以如果我们只看疯狂这个词

很难理解

真的是这个词的意思

但如果你看看这个词的样子

用在短语中

你可以获得更多信息，所以

看看人们用词的方式

在

短语不仅仅是单一的词汇

你可以学到更多的词

这样我觉得你的日常

尽可能用英语进行活动

下一个技巧是做你的日常

以您的目标语言进行的活动

所以如果你正在学习英语，那意味着

尝试做一些日常活动

如果可能的话英语

所以这可能是非常非常无聊的东西

但想想看

当你做这个活动的时候

现在我在

为englishclass101.com 拍摄视频

或者

我要去上班我在做早餐

我在洗衣服

我明天要做什么，所以试试

想着你的每一天

如果你在学习，生活在英语中

英语试着想想你的每一天

活动你遇到的人

你在做什么所以这是一种方法

帮助你练习你的动词，所以如果你

不知道你是不是

我不知道你在做什么

工作，你就像哦，天哪，我怎么办

解释

你知道的动词是什么图片

就像我想胡说八道一张照片

你可以检查什么词

一本字典，然后去啊

我画了

我需要用动词draw来画a

图片

所以你可以在

你的日常生活中的这些小差距

你的知识

如果你想你的每一天

以您的目标语言进行的活动，如果

你不会在你的目标中考虑它

语

你可能没有意识到你有

这里的词汇空白或短语空白和

所以这是一个非常好的和善良的

好笑的

实际上学习的方法是使用学习者的

生词词典

最后一个技巧是使用学习者的

新词词典so in English

有学习词典

可用英文所以

我最喜欢我个人最喜欢的是

梅里亚姆韦伯斯特梅里亚姆韦伯斯特是一个

很棒的词典资源，他们是如此

有趣，他们有

吨喜欢的历史信息我

真的

只是坐下来喜欢阅读上面的东西

词典页面

最近这是真的，但是嗯

当然有一个定义有一个

词义有例子

词句

但 merriam-webster 也有什么

称为

学习者词典如果你找到一个词

你不认识的

你可以在字典里查

学习词典

它给你一个简化的简单的

解释

用那个词的简单英语所以

而不是在您的本机中检查它

语言你可以在你的目标中检查它

语言如此

这有助于你理解这个词

你是你所关注的，但是

你明白吗

从你正在学习的语言不是

来自您的母语，因此使用

学习词典真的可以

真的很有用，好吧，怎么样

你的英语听力技巧

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听

两点

那我们三点在咖啡厅见面吧

点钟，四点钟看电影

好的大家好我的名字是艾丽西亚和

今天我要谈谈

正确使用这个词

让我们看几个例子

看看如何

仅在 a 中移动单词

句子可以改变意思

句子

好吧，让我们先开始吧，我想

只定义这个词以及我将如何去

在本课中使用它

这个词只适用于这节课，我们是

将其视为

副词所以一个副词，意思是一个

案例或单个

某事的实例，所以什么都没有

不同的

仅此而已

这件事这件事

某事的情况，但我想集中精力

这节课

论立场的重要性

只在一句话

所以使用时要记住一个关键

这个单词

只有，这是本地人的一点

扬声器和

非母语人士，我们需要将

词只尽可能接近

词或它修饰的短语

并且通过修改我的意思是只有连接

只有那句话正在改变

以某种方式表达

当我说地点时，它是

尽可能接近我的意思

在那个词之前它需要出现在之前

它在这个词之前改变的词

它正在修改

所以我想展示几个例子

去做这个

但我只会移动这个词

在同一个句子中，所以让我们

看看我会告诉你我的意思

让我们看看这个

这句话呃基础句在这里

莎拉在公园看见迈克尔了吗

一个简单的句子所以有两个

人们参与了一项行动

呃，在这种情况下，过去时看到和

然后在公园的一个位置

但我只在这里使用这个词

在几个不同的位置

显示它可以改变多少

句子的意思

取决于我们放置它的位置，所以

我这里的第一个例子只有莎拉

在公园里看到迈克尔这个词

只要

出现在 sarah 之前，所以这意味着

这两个词只连接

在这种情况下正在修改莎拉

句子

因此意味着莎拉也许在

一群人或与其他人

莎拉是唯一一个单身的人

人

谁在公园看到迈克尔也许在那里

小组中的其他人

她和她在一起，但她是单身

人是唯一见过迈克尔的人

所以

只有莎拉在公园里看到了迈克尔

这就是意思

仅在 sarah 之前放置

这里

让我们看下一句sarah

只在公园看到迈克尔

所以这里只有在这个词之前

看到所以在这种情况下它正在修改这个

动词

看到这句话因此意味着

莎拉唯一的东西

莎拉做了她唯一的动作就是看

她只在公园里看到了迈克尔

没有发生其他动作莎拉没有

向迈克尔·莎拉挥手没有打招呼

迈克尔·莎拉（michael sarah）没有扔东西

迈克尔

呃，没有其他动作

唯一的动作单一的动作

灵魂行动是

她看到了迈克尔·莎拉只看到了

迈克尔在那个部分

所以动词前的位置给出

我们这个意思

让我们再看一个例子 sarah saw

只有迈克尔

在公园这里只来过

迈克尔在这种情况下，所以连接

修改

发生在这里莎拉只看到迈克尔

在公园

意味着她没有看到任何其他人

在公园，所以这可能意味着

没有

公园里的其他人，或者也许

她只是她没有看到任何人

公园所以

这句话有点棘手

有点难以理解

正是作者想说的，但是

这可能意味着

可能没有人在

没有其他人停车

在莎拉看到的公园，所以她去了

去公园

她只看到迈克尔只有一个

一个人

莎拉看到的迈克尔只有这样放置

前

在这种情况下，迈克尔给了我们这个

意义

好吧，再讲一句话，莎拉看到了

迈克尔

只有在公园所以这里只有这个词

在公园出现在这句话之前

在这种情况下，这个位置意味着

莎拉看到了一个地方

迈克尔所以莎拉没有看到迈克尔

她没见过他的超市

商店

她在学校没有看到他她看到了

他只在公园

所以她只有一个地方

看到迈克尔

所以这四句话告诉我们有多少

句子的意思可以改变

取决于我们的位置

仅此而已，因此很重要

记住

我一直在做的另一件事

这节课有点

我是不是用我的声音强调了

只是修改的词

但我想在这里再强调一点

在演讲中

实际说话时，我们可以强调

强调和清晰的词

说得很清楚

我们想要句子中的哪个词

强调我们只想要哪个词

修改所以例如我只能说

莎拉

只在公园看到迈克尔或莎拉

在公园看到迈克尔

所以用你的声音你就有能力

强调

中的某些词和某些短语

句子

但是在书面上不可能

做这个

所以这个词的正确位置只有

相当重要

所以我想给你举几个例子

呃，这只是想一想

关于你下次使用这个词的时候

只有这样才能确保

你把这个词只作为

尽可能靠近

对它如此修饰的词

有什么要记住的

如果你有的话，这就是本课的内容

再见

大家好我的名字是艾丽西亚今天我是

来谈谈如何使用这个词

几乎我要展示一些不同的

例句

并给你一些指示

当你在时要注意的事情

用这个词

所以首先让我们看一下

这个词几乎如此

是副词

几乎

或不完全或不完全它可以

也意味着

与某物相似但不完全

喜欢某事

所以我有很多例句

我希望在这里

呃谈论解释一下

使用几乎

在我这样做之前，虽然我想

几乎在这里提到这个点

出现在它修饰的单词之前

像几乎一样修改意思

附上你可以认为它是

附在另一个词上

几乎改变了那个意思

这么说

几乎在另一个词之前使用或

在另一个短语之前

加上几乎或不完全的意思

或不完全

对于那个词或那个短语，让我们

从那开始，看看几个

例子

我差点忘了我的作业所以在这里

几乎出现在动词之前

在这种情况下忘记了意味着我几乎

所以忘了我的作业

这个词几乎就像我说的差不多

应该在它修饰的词之前

所以在这里

它正在修改忘记这个词所以我

几乎

忘了我的作业，我非常接近

忘记我的家庭作业

另一个他几乎总是打电话的例子

在他回家的路上

所以它出现在工作之前

出现在这个词之前

总是在这种情况下几乎总是

意思可能像 95%

时间或90

的时间所以不总是但

只是几乎总是呼唤他的

回家的路是这句话的意思

好吧，让我们看看另一个也许呃

这里是相反的意思

他们几乎从不离开家，所以

在这里，我们

我们从来没有像这个词那样几乎

正在修改

所以几乎从不意味着你能想到

例如，以百分比表示

喜欢

百分之五的时间他们离开

房子非常非常接近于零

但不完全为零，所以几乎

从不不完全从不但非常接近

绝不

呃下一个你差不多完成了

你快完成了

这里几乎是在修改这个词

就这样结束了

换句话说，你几乎完成了

这个案子也许你快完成了

你今天的工作，或者你是

几乎完成

你的作业例如你几乎

完成是这里的意思

让我们看下一句然后

下一句话是我们几乎

在这种情况下，我们快到家了

几乎是在修改这个词

home home 在这种情况下意味着 uh

在您的居住地，以便在

状态和存在状态

在你在你的地方，但你在

住在你的住所

所以几乎到家意味着几乎在

换句话说，你的房子

所以我们可以这样修改

呃类似于这个负面我用完了

这里有

我们从来没有得到几乎什么都没有

再次留在冰箱里

在这种情况下几乎没有什么

几乎

几乎什么都没有

在冰箱里吃或不吃东西

所以这句话意味着有东西

在冰箱里可能有一些东西

但几乎没有，所以很少

没事的下一句

表明我想提出的另一点

关于安置

几乎我在这些中提到的这个词

最初的例句

这个词几乎出现在

它修改的词

正如我们到目前为止所看到的，但是当你

使用动词

成为和它的变化就像是

例如

几乎在那个动词之后，所以让我们

看一个例子

在这里，我们在这里，我在这里，呃，他是

差点被解雇所以这是我的

在这种情况下是动词，使用

他是不是差点被解雇了，所以

这里

几乎跟在动词 be this is a

轻微变化

我再给你看一个例句

稍后再让我们回到这个

第一个模式

几乎没有人来参加她的聚会，所以在这里

几乎开始了句子

它正在修改 no one 几乎 no 这个词

一个来参加她的聚会很有意义

很少有人来参加她的聚会

最后让我们再看一个

这里的例子

我看电影快迟到了，所以又一次

这是我们的动词 i was and

几乎可以说成为动词 i was

几乎

电影迟到了，所以这些是

很多我们可以如何使用的例子

几乎我想谈谈

其他一些使用方式几乎我们使用

几乎随着时间和数量

表达式

所以在这些情况下，我们使用几乎这个词

在时间之前或数量之前

让我们看一些例子

例如，我们几乎一直在等待

两个小时，所以在这里

两个小时是我们使用的时间长度

几乎在那之前

将近两个小时不完全是两个小时但是

将近两个小时

我住在这里的下一个例子

将近五年，所以这并不意味着

正好五年，但非常接近五年

年

同样的事情，他说他们几乎

对不起，他说几乎有

5 000 人差不多 5 000

例如，不太可能像 4 900

非常接近 5 000。再次制作的食谱

差不多 200 块饼干，所以又不完全

是这里的意思所以所有这些

嗯

我们在可能更容易的时候使用它

像下一个一样使用

像它一样容易识别的数字

听起来很奇怪

在最后一个例子中说食谱

做了498个饼干听起来非常非常

具体的

听起来也可能是

演讲者计算了每个单独的 cookie

所以有时候那真的不是

合理或

听起来可能有点奇怪

所以嗯，或者也只是

有时无法准确计算

多少人或多少东西

我们处于一种情况，但几乎使用我们

可以猜测

有时这很有用

事物

对于时间和数量表达还可以

所以正如我们在本课中所看到的

我们可以用

总是像总是和从不这样的词

我在这里用过

例如他几乎总是和他们

几乎从不

所以请记住，这些有

非常非常不同的意思

所以相反的意思

我几乎总是意味着非常几乎总是

几乎从不意味着非常几乎从不

但不是

完全一样的东西，全有或全无或

不

所以我在这里举了一个例子

没有什么例如嗯

所以在这里它意味着非常接近于零，如果我

用过的

几乎所有人都喜欢几乎所有人

很高兴

这也意味着几乎每个人

所以你可以在这里看到一个模式

同样的，我们可以在这里看到

结束所有人，没有人

这就像极端所以嗯像100

与零百分比的东西相比

或者什么都没有

每个人或没有人，我们几乎可以使用

以显示

我们非常接近这些水平

但不是

在这些水平上，我最后一件事

想在本课中提及

是一个谨慎的词只是要小心

关于

你几乎放在哪里造句

因为它真的会影响意义

句子的

所以这里让我们看两个非常相似的

句子

他几乎把所有的事情都告诉了他的老板

秘密

还有两个他几乎把所有的事情都告诉了他的老板

秘密

这些是非常不同的句子，但是

它们看起来非常相似

这里我几乎用在动词之前

告诉

所以几乎是在修改告诉这个词

这里

他几乎把所有的秘密都告诉了老板

意思是他

几乎把所有的事情都告诉了他的老板

秘密

但他没有他没有这样

这里几乎修饰了这个动词告诉

意思是他几乎做的动作本身

这个动作

但他没有做这个动作

但是他告诉了他的老板这句话

几乎所有的秘密

因为它的定位正在修改

这个单词

他告诉他老板的几乎所有

秘密

意思是他几乎告诉了他的老板

一切都是秘密所以也许

喜欢95

他告诉过的90%到95%的秘密

他的老板如此行动

碰巧他确实告诉了他的老板，但他

没告诉

在这种情况下的一切，所以请保持

这要记住你的位置

你使用这个词的句子

几乎可以创造非常非常不同

意义

所以这里几乎记住了这一点

应该在它修饰的词之前

所以当你写作时，当你

说话你应该仔细考虑

对这个

还记得你何时使用动词

几乎应该来

在那个动词之后

像我现在这样说，我们确实有

使用我们的声音的能力，我们可以

强调

我们可以用我们的关键词来强调它们

声音说清楚我们是哪个词

想强调

但是我们不能真正做到这一点

写所以真的

重要的考虑考虑

我们放置单词的地方

几乎在我们写作的时候，所以我希望

大家好我的名字是艾丽西亚今天我是

来谈谈区别

之间

哪个和那个哪个和那个都是

关系代词

但是很多人把这两者混淆了

让我们谈谈如何使用它们

好的，首先快速概述

首先我们在什么中使用哪个

称为非限制性关系从句

另一方面，我们使用它

限制性的

所以在我们继续之前

让我们谈谈之间的区别

非限制性条款和限制性条款

条款

这里的区别是非限制性的

首先从句

我们使用 which 是一个子句

没有信息

对理解名词 it 至关重要

连接到

我将向您展示一些示例

分钟限制性条款但是

是一个有信息的子句

对我们理解这一点至关重要

名词 so

我们需要在

限制性条款

完全理解名词或

它所附加的名词短语

一个非限制性条款是一种

额外的信息

我们不需要这些信息

理解名词或名词短语

它只是提供了更多信息

让我们看几个例子

这个的

我的第一个例子是

极端，但这只是为了展示

这些之间的差异

两个首先是我停放的学校

旁边的车

很危险所以这里我的名词是学校

这里我有相对代词

我有学校

我把车停在旁边的是

危险的

我在这里用过它，因为我的爪子是

一个限制性的爪子我

我需要这些信息的学校

停了我的车

如果我删除它，旁边是危险的

学校很危险，这句话是

正确的

但是意思改变了

这里的关键是我把车停好

所以我想

说明具体学校

我把车停了

特别是在这所学校旁边是

危险的

所以这向我们表明这是一个限制性的

子句我们必须在这个

句子，因为信息是

对我们的理解至关重要

在这句话中然而学校

有一个网球场

很危险，我用过 which so which

是一个非限制性的用于

非限制性条款

这告诉我们这是额外的信息

学校

有网球场我需要知道吗

此信息

不，这只是额外的信息，如果我

删除此条款

学校是危险的根源

句子基本句

保持不变，这只是额外的

它不一定告诉你的信息

我们

有关的基本信息

情况如此

我们用 which 来表明它是一个

非限制性关系从句

正如我所说，这是一个相当极端的

例子

所以让我们来看看

多一点点

呃复杂好吧让我们看看下一个

两句话

首先是我去年买的车

已经有麻烦并且

我去年买的车是

已经有麻烦了

这些听起来非常相似

然而句子

我们选择哪个或那个以及

我稍后会谈到的逗号

已经改变了意思，所以有一个

这里有几个关键区别

通过在第一句话中看到

我们使用的是非限制性的

此处的子句 with which

我们看到我去年买的车

这告诉我们这是额外的

但是这里有关于汽车的信息

我们看到这是必不可少的

信息我买的车

去年已经有麻烦了

演讲者可能会在这里说

用这句话第二句话

我去年买的车

特别是扬声器的汽车

上一年买的

因此，这句话的意思是

扬声器可能有其他汽车

说话者的具体意思

具体的

他们去年买的车

在这句话中

非限制性条款我们没有

同样的细微差别

我去年买的车只是

额外的信息

在这句话中，所以这里的车

我去年买的这是

表示特定的汽车

这个带有非限制性爪子的

它只是给我们额外的信息

所以演讲者可能有也可能没有

另一辆车

我们不知道所以这就是我想要的

说吧，好吧

但是很多人的一个问题是

你怎么知道

无论是限制性的还是

非限制性条款，所以这是一个

快的

给母语者一个快速提示

实际上非母语人士

是限制性的非限制性的怎么办

我知道这样做

删除子句只取子句

句外

句子的意思是一样的吗

这个句子在语法上是否仍然存在

正确吗

如果是如果句子没问题

意思是一样的

这是一个非限制性条款 if no if

意义改变

如果您丢失了一些关键信息，这是一个

限制性条款

所以这是一个快速提示，如果你不是

确定是否使用哪个

或者是否使用那个试试这个测试

这个快速测试把它拿出来看看

如果意义

改变我想谈的最后一件事

关于这里

是逗号的使用，所以你会注意到我

用逗号

在整个课程中以及当我

正在阅读他们创造了一个

围绕这个额外的自然停顿

信息

但是你什么时候使用它们，我们应该使用

逗号

围绕非限制性条款，所以你

可以看到

我在这里用过它们

在我们使用的例句中

非限制性从句周围的逗号

只要

再次这一课逗号正在

记录

逗号是关于哪个和那个所以

当你阅读时，它创造了一种自然的

暂停，让读者知道接下来

像是

额外的信息，读者可以

通过使用这些逗号来理解

但是不要在周围使用逗号

限制性条款

例如我刚刚上的课

教的是如何使用

这是一个限制性的

子句所以我

具体是指我的这一课

刚教过

是关于如何使用 which 和 that i

此处不应包含逗号

因为我不包括任何额外的

信息所有的信息是

基本的

其他的都一样

我在本课中使用的例句

没有逗号，因为所有

的信息是必不可少的

读者需要理解

一切尽在一处

你可以这么想

那是一个

之间的差异概述

哪个和那个

限制性条款以及一对

逗号提示也是如此，所以我希望这个

对你有用

报告演讲的十种方法让我们

去说第一句话

是说说作为动词说

是一个非常中性的词，你可以用来

报告

某人解释某事的演讲

过去有人说过，例如

他说烧烤被取消了

只是一个简单的中性报告

tell 下一个动词是 tell

当一个人给予时使用tell

信息告诉另一个人

某人他们不知道的事

在别说告诉我你的电话之前

奇怪的数字

但是你能告诉我在哪里吗

车站是你能告诉我在哪里吗

买一个汉堡包你能告诉我在哪里吗

到

拿起我的新车就像这样给予

某人不知道的信息或

或另一方面解释

一种方式

给另一个人，所以不要告诉我什么

我做不到

是一个很好的丢失参考，如果你有

曾经看过迷路

所以再讲一个例句我的老板

告诉我我做得很好

说下一个是

说话所以我们用说话

当我们谈论语言时

像我说话的能力

英语我说日语我们可以使用

说过去

时态报告某事，但通常

听起来更正式一点，所以就像我一样

和我的老板谈过

关于或者我和我的父母谈过关于

或者我和我的男朋友或女朋友谈过

关于胡说八道

使用说话而不是说话

让它听起来更正式一点

所以你可以用说话

但这听起来很有礼貌

我的同事和我说话的句子

关于即将到来的项目

就像好的下一个下两个

其实很随意

表达式

所以当你和朋友聊天时

你是在说快速

也许有些情绪化的谈话

你会特别听到母语人士

美国人也许

这是美国人使用的独特之处

词组

就像我就像他一样

她就像这是一种很随意的方式

报告

演讲，你会经常听到

很快

在一起，所以有人会说我喜欢

什么然后她就像没有然后我

就像是的

这就是你会听到的那种模式

它在非常非常

报告演讲的快速方法，但

主题变化

我就像他就像她就像我们一样

就像这是一种分享方式

发生的事情很快而不是我说

他说她说

这听起来有点太正式了，我们

可以用我喜欢

他喜欢这样做，所以这个

是一个非常有趣的，如果你可以使用

这

呃自然我认为它真的会

帮助你听起来更自然

句子

然后他就像我喜欢那部电影

是所有

下一个也是类似的

喜欢

我们的表情就是这样

一切都别担心一切都没有

有的意思

某事的全部或一个完整的

取而代之的东西

是不是所有这组短语都用来

报告

语音通常在以下情况下使用

有某种

情绪化的情绪化的

你谈话的一个方面，或者它是一个

有点戏剧性或

也许有点令人兴奋，我们使用它

同样的方式

就像那种非常快速的风格

说话的

然后他就像我一样

然后她就像我一样

我们一起使用，但我都有

多一点强调

我觉得当我的时候我倾向于使用它

想要表达更强烈的情感

我完全没有办法，或者我就是所有

什么

所以你可以将它用于那些非常喜欢的人

惊讶的情绪或愤怒

情绪

was like and was all 都用于

非常随意的情况

so in a sentence and i was all oh my god

我也是

talk 下一个词是talk

所以说类似于呃说

报告时是一个相当中性的动词

演讲

您将在以下情况下使用它

某人

正在给你新的信息

但也许这是一个双向对话所以

例如

我们谈论了胡说八道

对于一个话题或我的老板谈过

对我来说废话废话所以也许

正在交换新信息，但

对话有两种方式

多个参与者告诉

就像细微差别是一种

人报告信息给

信息

和谈了有交流

发生在那里

所以当你使用这个词时要记住

讲话

你会说要么我和我谈过，要么我

谈过

和某人，然后你通常会

有一个话题，所以我和我的朋友聊了聊

关于废话废话我和我的

朋友谈了我的新公寓

我和我的老板谈加薪

老板

不，我和我的狗谈论狗的行为

所以有一些

那里发生的那种交流

你需要使用两个或 with when

你指的是那个人

或您正在与之交谈的实体，您将

利用

即将提到这个主题

你可以用这个

当你想讨论

信息交流如此在一个

她跟我说话的句子

关于我的家人提及

让我们去下一个下一个是

提到

当喜欢某事时使用提及

只是

只有一个小点

像这样的谈话

只是一点旁注，或者也许是

不是谈话的重点，而只是

某物

有人说得很快，或者只有一个

你听到的小事

哦，你提到了一些关于废话的事情

等等等等或

你提到了一个新项目，比如

它可能不是重点

谈话，但

你听说过一点

那是我们使用动词的时候

提到我们也可以在

像请这样的声明

在简历中提及您拥有的任何技能

所以

细微差别有点像

一点点信息

是当我们在句子中使用提及时

我们的经理提到

公司即将发生的变化

和上

好的，下一个表达是继续

就这样继续下去

意思是说很长时间

所以也许你有一个同事

或朋友或家人

说话而不停止

说话我们说继续

这就是我们在 a 中使用的表达式

句子

研讨会上的演讲者正在进行

和上

关于这个话题，如果你真的想

强调一下，你可以说发生了什么事

不断地不断地不断地

真的强调这个人

继续说话

所以如果你认识这样做的人

很多你可以用这个表达来说话

关于他们

根据 uh 这里的下一个表达式

是根据

根据 uh 其实用在

消息

或者想正式报道一些事情

所以根据来源或根据

警方称政府

官方的

根据我的老师根据我的

母亲

这些就像直接报告

信息

他们是直接下属

来自特定的信息

据报纸报道

我的 f 社区有 50 个

000家很棒的拉面店

这不是真的，但如果

我想而不是只说我的

附近有 50 000 个很棒的拉面

商店

我为此提供了一个来源

根据我的报纸

这就是我得到的地方

信息，所以这很重要

在新闻和报纸以及任何形式的

您将看到的官方文档

在这些情况下听听啊

造句

据现场目击者称

嫌疑人逃跑

报告很好，所以下一个是

报告

所以报告类似于根据

我们在更正式的地方使用报告

情况如此

正式分享信息

向警察报告向您的

向老师汇报

你的老板有时意味着提交

文件

喜欢给某人书面报告

有时是

只是正式分享信息而已

您可以在酒吧使用的大约 10 个单词

我们先去买一轮

表达是买

一轮买一轮的意思

买一轮饮料基本上是

一轮饮料意味着一杯饮料

您小组中的每个人都喝一杯

你党里的每个人

顺便说一下派对这个词

平均群

在酒吧或餐厅

你党里的人

是您组中的人数，所以

买一轮意味着买一杯饮料

大家造句我们的老板开始了

通过购买周围的每个人来参加聚会

在不同的句子中，您要购买

下一轮

在岩石上下一个表达式是

在岩石上岩石上是一种方法

当你在岩石上说时点一杯

它的意思是

你只在冰上喝，所以石头是

冰

在你的杯子里，所以你可以想象冰

你杯子里的冰块冰块

立方体或冰球

这些就像岩石，所以说我想要

例如在岩石上的威士忌意味着

只是威士忌

加冰的，这就是岩石上的东西

这么说造句

我想要一杯加冰的杜松子酒

下一个表达式是直接向上的，所以

直的

上来喝不同于上上

岩石饮料直饮是

加冰冷藏，但很紧

所以饮料里没有冰，但它是

它一直

加冰冷藏，直接喝

没有别的了

在玻璃杯里，但它是一种冰镇饮料

造句

我想要一杯马提尼

人们使用直或直这个词

向上，但他们的意思是

整洁，这是我们要说的下一个词

谈论所以记住直

或直接意味着冷藏那是一个

这里的关键点

所以是的，马提尼酒是

冰镇马提尼

整洁，所以下一个表达式是整洁的

点一杯干净的饮料意味着饮料是

没有冷藏，也没有

冰只是它只是酒精

这只是酒，什么都没有

特别之处

干净的饮料只是饮料

就是这样，它什么也没发生，所以在

句子我想要一杯威士忌

下一个表达式真的是两个

表达这些是你在什么时候使用的词

你点

啤酒他们是一品脱和半品脱

取决于您居住的国家

品脱可以

它们的大小不同

半品脱大约是一半

品脱

大小所以半品脱和一品脱是两个

方法二

size we used to order beer造句

我能喝半品脱这种黑啤酒吗

追逐者下一个表达是追逐者

所以追逐者是你用来

跟随

经常使用酒精饮料追逐者

后

镜头所以镜头是小饮料

通常是一种

酒精含量高，他们有

味道很浓

所以有些人喜欢有东西

在那之后

他们称它为追逐者，所以图像

是

第二杯酒在追

第一杯进入你的身体，你可以

这么想，追逐者是一个

不含酒精的饮料，所以它可能是水

可能是苏打水可能是什么东西

像那种果汁

也许这么追逐造句

龙舌兰酒

经常跟着追赶者喝醉

下一个词是要醉了

是一种描述你的感受的方式

你在喝酒

所以如果你能想象你什么时候

你站着

当你站在

经常你很自信

又高又不怎么动

但如果你觉得

Tipsy this 来自动词 to tip

像这样所以一些提示

呃到一边或另一边呃想到

你的身体就这样

所以我们用 uh Tipsy 这个词

形容词

醉醺醺的嗯来形容这种感觉也许

你不是这样

站稳脚跟，你可能会翻倒

在任何被称为醉意的时候

从酒精

好吧所以造句 uh let’s see i’m a

有点醉了，我需要一些水

喝醉了下一个表达是

醉

所以我们谈到了醉酒这个词所以

醉醺醺的有点像

不稳定但醉只是

一团糟你只是你只是一个

灾难也许你很吵

声音很大很难

控制你的身体或你朋友的身体

喝醉的通常是什么

被视为消极的事情嗯所以是的

醉

呃表示是的，它只是不是

漂亮

有时如此造句你的朋友

喝醉了让我们带他回家打电话吧

一晚

下一个表达式是称它为

晚上叫它一个晚上

意思是决定在酒吧结束

回家吧，你准备好了

在这里，我要称呼它，我要

说

这是今晚今晚结束了

所以用一个句子 uh it’s a long

晚上

我要叫它一个晚上我的意思是我

我要回家了

这是一个随意的表达宿醉和

然后你可以使用另外一个

日

你去酒吧后是宿醉，所以

宿醉是一个名词宿醉是这个词

我们用来描述感受

喝多了之后，也许你

感觉不舒服

到你的胃你头疼你的

身体很痛

有很多不同的感受

当你觉得你可能有

宿醉是另一种方式

说出来，但是当你宿醉时

它通常感觉不太好

句子

知道你的动词看看你的动词看看

在你的动词

大家好，我的名字是艾丽西亚，欢迎

回去知道你的动词

在这一集中，我们将谈论

关于动词look

所以我们走吧

动词look的基本定义是

到

用你的眼睛用你的技能

想象

嗯，是的，用你的眼睛看

把你的眼睛转向某事

用你的眼光看

动词 c if you 的区别

看c

知道你的动词 c 的意思

用

眼睛看起来意味着喜欢集中眼睛

在某事上引起你的注意

朝向某事，而 c 喜欢

接受某事以感知获得

眼睛的信息

看只是把你的注意力集中在

东西上的东西

让我们看看

这个动词的变位

现在时看起来或看起来过去时

看着过去分词看着

进行时或进行时

看起来如此

让我们看看一些额外的

动词look的会议

首先按照这里出现

是一些例子

她度过了艰难的一年，是的，她看起来

烧伤

第二个例子他 60 岁他看起来不像

它

好的，所以在这些例句中

看是指匹配

关于某人的其他一些信息或

关于

关于情况的条件，所以在这个

第一个例句中的案例我们

听到

她度过了艰难的一年，然后

对此的回应是

她看起来，所以这意味着

换句话说，这里的意思是

好像她度过了艰难的一年

看起来

意思是她按照

事实

她度过了艰难的一年，但那是

很长的事情要说

相反，我们说是的，她看起来是

她的外表暗示了你所拥有的

只是说她度过了艰难的一年

是的，她看起来很粗糙

年

和看起来很相配，所以她的样子

符合我们所经历的这个艰难的年份

了解她的第二句话是

相似的

有人说他60岁意思是他60岁

岁

但我们听到他的负面回应

没有

看这意味着他没有出现

作为一个 60 岁的男人在其他方面的意义

话他可能看起来年轻得多

超过60。他看起来不像

可能是他看起来老了很多

超过 60 岁，就像有人

如果有人拥有，看起来很古老

外观非常

很老的人，你走了，我的天哪

他已经 60 岁了，他看起来不像

这也是可能的那是可能的我

假设所以你只需要衡量

基于语调，所以我们可以使用

表示某人是这样的表达

显着年轻

或更老的下一个意思是看起来

看起来这里有一些例子

看起来很艰难

这看起来会是

在这些示例中比我想象的要容易

我们可以替换动词look的句子

和

看起来和意思保持不变所以

这看起来很艰难有同样的

意思是因为这看起来很艰难

所以看起来和看起来是一样的

意义

在第二个示例中的这些示例中

我们看到的句子

这看起来会是

比我想象的要容易

我们可以用看起来和

意义保持不变

这似乎是

比我想象的要容易，所以这两个

我们可以简单地替换动词

我们在这些中具有相同的含义

情况如此

看起来意味着看起来你为什么要使用

看而不是缝什么是

这里的区别

就我个人而言，我认为接缝听起来

比look稍微正式一点

在大多数情况下我不会使用接缝

在大多数情况下会说看起来

当我想说缝如果我想

听起来稍微正式或稍微

更有礼貌，我可能会使用

接缝这似乎是什么问题

似乎是问题所在

而不是看起来像问题

看，或者看起来这个是你的

问题

看起来不像

正式的

没关系接下来就是要记住

作为一个目标

是一些例子

我们想买一辆新车

月底

他正在寻找完成他的工作

下个月转移

所以这两个句子都定义了一个目标

他们解释了一个目标

我们也使用渐进式

看着

所以这意味着我们正在

朝着一个目标或在

进步

在第一时间完成一个目标

例句我们是

打算年底买新车

这个月

意味着我们的目标是买一辆新车

月底，我们是

目前正在尝试这样做

但这是一个很长的表达，所以

相反，我们使用

看我们想买一辆新车我

假设我们可以用

动词瞄准我们的目标是买一个新的

车

瞄准嗯，但瞄准听起来相当

正式的

而且看起来更随意一点

所以我们正在寻找

买新车第二句话

他正在寻找完成他的工作

下个月转移我们看到相同的

他的目标是完成他的工作

转移，他的目标是在下一个完成

月，所以他目前正在努力

他的目标

他正在寻找我们完成的事情

在进行时使用它

表明他目前正在尝试

达到这个目标达到这个目标

结果下一个意思是表达

用你的眼睛或你的脸

所以你实际上是在创建一个

用你的眼睛或你的脸出现

一种表达

换句话说，这里有一些例子

她看起来很惊讶他们看起来很漂亮

生气的

这两个例子都在说话

关于表情面部表情

或某种外观

是用脸或用

眼睛所以在第一个例子中我们看到

她看起来很惊讶的过去式

表示

她脸上有一些关于她的东西

脸或她的眼睛

表现出惊喜她创造了一个惊喜

脸

用她的面部表情在其他

话，所以她看起来

他们在第二个例子中感到惊讶

看起来很生气

现在时他们看起来很生气

表示他们的面部表情

看起来很生气，他们是什么东西

他们正在用他们的脸或他们的

眼睛

创造一个愤怒的样子看起来是一个名词

这里

所以呃，他们看起来很生气是他们的

表情出现

生气的

让我们继续讨论这个的一些变化

我们如何配对

换句话说，要创造一个新的

意义

首先是调查这种方式

调查这里是我们的一些例子

需要调查这些指控

你调查过要求吗

为您的许可证

这两者都意味着检查或

调查某事

所以在第一个例句中我们需要

调查这些指控

意味着我们需要调查这些

我们可能需要的指控

研究我们需要寻找更多
