hi everybody my name is alicia in this

lesson we're going to talk about an

introduction to email writing so i have

email writing here but this is email

writing especially for business or for

other formal situations we're going to

talk about the format the general format

of an english email and we're going to

talk about some patterns that you can

use maybe to explain yourself or to

introduce an idea

and so on we'll see a few examples so

let's get started all right

first i want to take a look at the

general format the basic parts of an

email an email at least in terms of

american english business emails

simply put we begin with a greeting a

simple greeting the dear part of your

letter a greeting perhaps then an

introductory phrase or something that

introduces the purpose the reason you

are writing the email

following that will be any background

information or any details you need to

provide to make the purpose of your

email clear

following that a closing statement

something to kind of wrap up to show

your reader you're ending the message

and then a sign off which is really the

final point before your name in the

email so we're going to talk about these

points let's look at some patterns you

can use in these emails

let's begin with the greeting part of

your email if you don't know the person

receiving your email you can use the

expression

to whom it may concern this is kind of a

classic line some people feel it's a

little bit old-fashioned

but it's polite and most people are

familiar with it to whom it may concern

just means the person related so this

email is to the person related to this

inquiry to this question so it just

means in other words i don't know who to

address this email to but

please give it to the proper person the

appropriate person this is a polite way

to say that to whom it may concern to

whom it may concern we don't use this in

speech just to whom it may concern is

good for opening emails for your

greeting in emails

if however you do know the person you

are sending the email to you can begin

with dear

then add mr miss or mrs the difference

between miss and mrs misses is used for

married women miss is used for unmarried

women if you don't know is she married

not married use miss miss is the safer

choice you can also use a title like a

professor or doctor if you know that the

other person is a doctor has a phd

is a professor assistant professor if

you know their title you can use that in

the greeting dear professor xyz or dear

dr abc for example

you can also use

department names here so dear maybe

international department staff for

example you can use the name of the

department and staff if it's a little

bit more general like you don't know

exactly who to send it to but you do

know the department you can use

department staff there so department

name in this case

okay so once you have written your

greeting at the beginning of the email

then you can go into your introduction

and your purpose so why are you writing

the email these are a few patterns that

you can use first my name is so if this

is the first time you have contacted the

other party the other person you can use

this to introduce yourself so in my case

my name is alicia and i am writing

regarding and then your topic so

regarding means about so you're putting

this about statement before your topic

so my name is alicia and i'm writing

regarding uh studying english for

example so your topic should probably be

a noun phrase

so whatever it is whatever the topic of

your email inquiry is you can put it

here

a simpler one maybe you already know the

other person you can say i'm writing

regarding your topic so i'm writing

regarding english studies at your school

for example

another one i'm writing to reach out

about so here i've used about you can

use regarding here too regarding just

sounds a little bit more formal than

about so reach out though this implies

you're maybe introducing something or

you want someone to do something for you

so i'm writing to reach out about a new

event i'm planning so maybe you're

trying to gather support for a new event

for example so to reach out you're

introducing something you might be

asking for help for something

one more i'm writing to see so here i

have to see meaning to check to check

with you in other words i'm writing to

see if you would be interested in would

be interested in means in the future is

there a chance

uh you would be interested in something

interested in again a topic so i'm

writing to see if you would be

interested in coming to an event later

this month i'm writing to see if you

would be interested in teaching a

seminar in my school for example so this

is something again you want the other

person's participation or you want them

to do something for you you can ask

about their interest here this is much

better than saying please do this so

please do x y z sounds too direct ask if

the other person is interested in would

they be interested in something

much better introduction okay so these

are a few simple examples uh when you're

making a request or when you're writing

about a general topic so how do you then

explain some background and some details

about this point so

if you are writing uh regarding like a

a question maybe you ordered something

from the company there was a problem or

maybe it was a service transaction uh

some some kind of like business

transaction that's your topic so for

example my name is alicia and i'm

writing regarding a textbook i ordered

if you want to write and explain a

problem you can use a couple of these

patterns these top two for example i

placed an order for a textbook on

january 15th but it hasn't arrived it

hasn't arrived so here the product i

ordered the date of my order and maybe

an order number would be good too so

after this statement you can explain the

problem so for example the textbook i

received was wet or the textbook was the

wrong textbook so you can explain the

problem after this expression

so these are perhaps for orders or maybe

a service situation let's look at the

second pair here if you're looking for

someone to do a job for you or if you

want someone's participation in

something you can try using one of these

patterns let's look at the first one

we're looking for someone too plus your

task so we're looking for someone to

help us with data entry we're looking

for someone to teach english lessons on

the internet so would you be interested

again we have the same would you be

interested

as we saw up here asking about their

interest so if you say please do this or

do this for us it's too direct use would

you be interested we usually say would

you be interested in participating would

you be interested in teaching would you

be interested in leading the lesson for

example so ask would that other person

like to do that thing or are they

interested in learning more so here is

one way to invite someone for something

or to make a request of someone's time

or a request of someone's skills so

here's one pattern

another one

we're planning an event and would like

to extend an invitation to extend an

invitation is a formal expression which

means we want to invite you so here is

our this is our official invitation to

extend an invitation means to invite

someone to something but this is a

formal expression we use to extend means

like to put something out so like to

make something longer imagine your arm

coming out to extend an invitation like

here on our hand

um so we are planning a seminar and

would like to extend an invitation to

you perhaps as well so this is for an

event invitation or maybe there's

something else you would like to invite

this person to like we're

we're planning a conference and would

like to extend an invitation to you to

give a speech at the conference for

example so there are many ways we can

change this sentence to invite someone

to participate in something all right

let's move on then to some closing

messages so after you've explained the

background and the details and you've

kind of asked the key question or

explained the problem then we can show

the reader that the email is finished by

including one of these expressions these

are just a few examples

but they're quite general so first thank

you for your time so this is good for

maybe a simple inquiry or if you're

explaining a problem perhaps and you

just want to express your appreciation

thank you for your time um that's a nice

one another one i look forward to

hearing from you soon i look forward to

hearing from you soon shows you expect a

reply from the other person so it's a

little bit of a push in this case so i

look forward to hearing from you soon i

look forward to receiving a reply from

you soon you're expecting a reply in a

timely fashion you're expecting a reply

in a reasonable amount of time

one more if there is any additional

information i can provide i would be

happy to prepare it so this means if

there's something else additional

information here if there's any

additional information

that the other person needs

you the writer of the email are happy to

prepare that information so in other

words this is an invitation if you need

something please let me know i will

prepare that so these are a few nice

sentences you can close your email with

then the final part in email writing is

the sign off so

there are many different sign-offs here

are a few that i feel are common and

easy to use and polite as well sincerely

is good sincerely is quite basic um

you can use that in most situations

without trouble it just sounds quite um

i guess quite typical it doesn't sound

so

warm i suppose but it's fine to use

another one i personally like to use

best so best shows um this is short this

is kind of an abbreviated expression of

my best or i wish you the best

but kind of short and a little more

professional i feel best another popular

one is warm regards warm regards in

other words my warm feelings or like i

mean this in the best way possible i

mean my email to be warmly received

another one i've seen is kindly kindly

so this one is in like a request or just

perhaps an information related email

kindly so meaning i intend this email to

be read with kindness so please don't

mean like i'm angry or anything kindly

kindly um sometimes i see people use

yours or sincerely yours those are too

intimate they are personal so using

yours implies that you have a personal

relationship with the person reading the

email

or it could be an intimate relationship

so yours is something i typically avoid

in professional emails

don't use love in professional emails

either like my love or anything like

that don't use that in your emails

either

but stick with one of these and you

should be just fine in most cases so

please just be careful don't use yours

don't use love as well

all right but that's just a quick

introduction to email writing especially

professional and business related emails

i hope that that was helpful for you if

you have any questions or if you want to

try one of these patterns or if you have

a different pattern you like to use in

your emails let us know in the comment

soon bye

hi everybody my name is alicia in this

lesson i'm going to introduce some

spelling tips these are a few tips that

i hope can help you to improve your

spelling i prepared these tips with

english in mind but i think some of

these tips could work for other

languages that you're studying too so

let's get started okay the first tip and

the most important tip for improving

your spelling is to read reading is

really really important because you can

actually see the words on the page so

especially in english there are many

words that are pronounced differently

from the way they are spelled

reading can help you familiarize

yourself can help you better understand

the correct way to spell a word not just

listening to the word but actually

looking at the word so reading is very

important

when you read however there's one thing

that's good to keep in mind there's one

thing that's good to think about

so choose books or newspapers or

magazines for reading but what you

should do is make sure you read and

listen to things as well i'll talk about

this

read things that have been edited

edited means someone checked the text to

make sure there are no errors there are

no mistakes so make sure that you are

reading things that have been checked

a lot of native speakers especially on

like social media such as facebook or

twitter or instagram they'll post

messages sure but they're not checked

like the english is not properly checked

or they're using very informal english

so when you read and when you're

practicing your spelling paying

attention to the words when reading make

sure you're choosing things that have

been edited so that you can be sure

you're reading proper english sometimes

when we're speaking casually or writing

casually we don't think very much about

our grammar or our spelling so please

make sure to use materials that have

been edited for your spelling studies

i mentioned also listening if you like

another thing you can do as you read is

choose a book that has an audio version

so that means as you read the book you

can listen to the pronunciation at the

same time of course if you're busy too

you can just listen to the audio and

learn the story but if you want to

practice your pronunciation and

listening skills in addition to your

spelling and reading skills you can

consider trying an audio book so you

read along and listen at the same time

so this could be another interesting way

to practice a few skills

at the same time but this is the most

important tip for this lesson is to read

read read lots and this is something you

can do every day as well if you find an

online magazine or a newspaper or

something similar that you enjoy you

could read it on your way to work for

example or maybe during lunch for

example just a few minutes here and

there each day to practice your reading

skills and to boost your spelling skills

okay let's move along to the next tip

the next tip here is to play word games

or to do word puzzles we have a lot of

these in english i've given a couple

examples here so word games and word

puzzles are similar i'll introduce first

what's called a crossword puzzle so this

is what a crossword puzzle looks like

a blank crossword puzzle this is a brand

new one a simple one i made is made from

boxes

the boxes go from left to right and from

top to bottom when you play a crossword

puzzle or when you try to complete a

crossword puzzle your job is to read

clues that are next to the puzzle each

clue matches with a row or a column of

boxes so your job is to find the word

that matches this clue

and you have to spell the word correctly

to put the letters into the boxes so i

prepared a very simple one here so i've

numbered these as one

two and three going down so here i have

hints one two and three again this is

very simple usually crossword puzzles

are very big and they have lots of clues

but just to show you how a crossword

puzzle works

the first clue here number one this says

a yellow fruit a yellow fruit so a

yellow fruit is a lemon so we place each

letter

in the box l-e-m-o-n

we know the spelling is correct or we

can have a pretty good guess at least

that the spelling is correct because it

fits in the box

then we look at the next clue number two

down here number two oh sorry i made a

mistake number two should actually be

here

number two is eye accessories eye

accessories so an accessory is a small

piece of clothing or like jewelry for

example in this case it's for your eyes

so eye accessories that's glasses so we

write

glasses

with one letter in each box glasses and

it fits here it also fits with the l

from lemon from our first clue

so glasses is here finally the last clue

down here the clue is something that

costs no money something that costs no

money so a word we can use to describe

this is free f-r-e-e

so this is a very simple example of a

crossword puzzle but your job is to fit

the different vocabulary words together

like i said this is simple

but there are lots more challenging ones

out there if you're interested in

crossword puzzles you can do a quick

google search and you can find beginner

crossword puzzles more difficult ones

and there are some extremely challenging

ones that you need to know a lot about

like history or science or pop culture

to find the answers but this is a really

fun way to improve your spelling because

you have to make sure to have the

spelling right in order to finish the

puzzle you can do this alone or with

friends it's fun another thing

you can play word games word games so

this is kind of a more general thing

i've listed a couple examples of word

games there's one very popular and very

well known word game called scrabble it

looks similar to a crossword puzzle but

the difference is there are no clues

there are no hints you play with a group

of people and each person has to make

words from the letters so imagine you

have a lot of little single letters and

your job is to create words from those

letters you put the words on the board

and your friends make new words from the

words that you choose so this is a fun

way to practice spelling and to kind of

think about other things that you can do

with the letters that you have so this

is kind of a fun way to practice

spelling i think

if however it's difficult for you to get

this game or to play this game you could

try

this game words with friends this is a

free application so if you have a

smartphone you can find this online it's

called words with friends it's basically

scrabble but it's online and it's free

so you can find a partner somewhere in

the world you don't have to talk to that

person but you can play this game

building words from the words your

partner makes and so on and you try to

compete you try to get the top score in

the game to win so if you want to

practice word games you can try these

there are other word games as well if

you do a quick google search you can

find some other examples of word games

but these are quite popular

okay

finally there is spelling contests i

included spelling contests here because

this is something that we do in the usa

at least we have a spelling contest for

kids that's called the spelling bee so

you might have something similar in your

country or you might be interested in

participating in the spelling bee if you

are a young person in the usa so with

spelling contests each contestant has to

spell a word correctly however the

person has to rely on his or her

knowledge of words so that means maybe

the root of the word the word's history

like where did the word originally come

from how the word is used in a sentence

the part of speech and so on so this

could be an interesting way to practice

your spelling and to practice the

history of words so spelling contests

can be fun of course if you don't have

an official spelling contest you can

just create a spelling contest with your

group of friends okay let's move along

to the next tip

the next tip i have here is to memorize

some basic rules some basic spelling

rules so i've included a few examples of

just basic rules here for example words

that end in a shun sound we often use

this

t-i-o-n spelling to spell that sound

shun

another example is words that end in gh

like enough or rough so this is an

example

where the spelling is different from the

way it sounds you might think we should

use an f to spell this word but enough

actually ends with a gh

there are words that end in able or the

similar ible like possible for example

or capable so remembering these kinds of

word endings

can help you because they're very very

commonly used and if you understand how

to spell the word

roughly like this you at least have this

sort of rule in your mind it can help

you when you're reading and when you're

trying to spell the word

however there are some cases where you

need to remember that the rules are not

perfect so i marked it rules here

because it's not like 100 percent a rule

so a great example is this really common

expression i learned this in school but

this is actually not 100 true it's

helpful sometimes this rule is i before

e

except after c this is a very common

spelling rule which means we should

always put i first i before e

however when you're spelling a word and

c is in the word we should not follow

this rule that's what this means so it's

kind of helpful in some cases but there

are some situations where this rule is

not effective it doesn't work so

examples where it is okay

here receipt so here we have a c

and the e comes first the i comes second

which is the opposite here that's

correct

in this word fried it's correct there's

no c so the i is before e i e d we see

the same thing in this word here cried

as well so in these examples it's

correct however here are a few examples

where this rule is not correct like

weird the e comes first the i comes

second in this word weird means strange

another example the word height

referring to how tall something is the e

is first the i is second

here the word science there's a c here

but the i still comes before the e

so remember if you hear a rule like this

or some kind of you know expression to

help you with your spelling try to

remember that it's not always a perfect

rule they're very helpful sometimes but

you need to consider that there are some

exceptions some things that don't quite

fit the rule okay let's go on to the

next spelling tip the next spelling tip

is to watch english media with subtitles

to watch english media with subtitles

means like movies tv youtube videos as

well so read and listen to the

pronunciation at the same time so the

words appear at the bottom of the screen

in english that means not necessarily

watching in your native language but

you're listening to the person speaking

in english and you're reading the

subtitles in english so you can find a

new word perhaps that way or you can

better understand the spelling that way

too

so this can be a fun tip if you know a

movie very well for example you've seen

it many times you might try to watch it

with english subtitles to pick up some

new things that you never noticed in the

movie before so this is another fun

thing you can do and you can enjoy media

while you study

okay so those are a few spelling tips

remember the most important thing to do

here is read read i really recommend

reading it's fun too

but those are just a few things that you

can do to hopefully improve your

spelling if there's something else that

you like to do that you think has helped

english studies thanks very much for

watching this lesson and we will see you

again soon bye-bye

and internet and texting phrases these

are acronyms so words that

are made from the beginning

of other words you'll see let's get

started okay

lol

the first word or the first acronym is

l-o-l you can read it as law if you want

l-o-l stands for laugh out loud or

laughing out loud we use this in text

and on the internet when something is

funny you receive a funny picture lol

you see something funny in a video lol

you

read something funny

so lol

is used to express laughter in a

sentence what a funny picture l-o-l

g-o-a-t

next is

g-o-a-t it spells goat but it actually

means greatest of all time greatest of

all time goat this is this acronym goat

you can use this after something that

you think is really great like the best

of something the most amazing of

something you have an amazing

i don't know amazing lunch and you take

a picture post it on instagram uh

g-o-a-t like this salad something like

that or like a in this sentence i made

that beyonce performance g-o-a-t like

greatest of all time so you think

something is the best you can use

g-o-a-t for that okay

fyi

next one is fyi fyi is used in

text and internet

communications but we also use it in

speech we can also use fyi in speech

it's okay in business as well fyi means

for your information for your

information blah blah blah just giving

you some information so

anytime you want to provide extra

information you can use fyi so fyi the

barbecue is still on tomorrow though

it's going to rain or fyi

i'm leaving in 30 minutes so if you need

to talk to me do it now or in this

sentence fyi i have to leave early today

brb

the next one is b-r-b b-r-b b-r-b means

be right back be right back i'm going to

go away for a moment and come back very

quickly so be right back means very soon

i'm coming back be right back brb

sometimes especially young people use

brb in speech as well like they're

leaving the room for a moment up near me

and then they come back too so some of

these words are used actually in speech

particularly among young people in a

sentence i'm gonna grab a snack brb

omg

the next one is extremely popular the

next one is omg omg means oh my god oh

my god oh my god so

very very useful expression you can use

omg for surprise for anger for sadness

for any extreme emotion causes surprise

causes some

whenever whenever you want to use oh my

god to express an extreme emotion you

can use this so you see something funny

omg l-o-l you can combine these like the

first word l-o-l omg-lol that video

you can use

for laughter by the way i use that

h-e-h-e-h-e

or h-a-h-a-h-a so you can use that or

you can use l-o-l but omg oh my god

that's what we use to express that

feeling that

shock feeling omg so in a sentence we

could say omg i can't believe it oh my

god i can't believe it

okay

what

the next one is w-u-t actually sorry

this one is not an acronym this is not

an acronym it's a misspelling actually

so the pronunciation of this is what

what so a very strong u sound this comes

from the word what w-h-a-t

what what

but we use a misspelling uh in the on

the internet and with text and stuff to

imply like kind of uh a dumb feeling

like

when you when you want to say what like

you're confused about something but the

situation is very very dumb or it's just

um it's hard to understand or confusing

or it doesn't make sense you can use

what like a very it has like a very uh

like kind of dumb sound the same u sound

in dumb is in word so it's like what

uh instead of what

which has a stronger a sound so we use

what in

in situations where yeah something

doesn't make sense so like my roommate

didn't come home last night what so it's

something that's a little bit um

confusing that might be a little more of

an extreme example actually in this

sentence your roommate wants a dog but

doesn't want to pay for it what

so again this is something that's used

more in text it's hard to make the sound

accurately

in

speech i suppose it's it's hard to

detect but when you spell what

incorrectly w-u-t

it gives the impression that um the

situation doesn't make sense it's it's

kind of stupid or strange and it shows

you are confused it shows something

doesn't make sense to you so this is

more common well actually this is

primarily used this is mostly used in

text only we don't use it so much in

speech okay

btw

uh the next one is btw btw means by the

way by the way um young people will use

bt dubs or uh yeah bt dubs instead of

btw in conversation

by the way is just giving extra

information about something so like any

time you would use by the way in

conversation you can use btw

on the internet i don't recommend this

for business emails or business writing

but in like on twitter facebook

instagram so on you can use btw to mean

by the way very convenient in a sentence

btw can you give me back the money you

owe me

a f a i k

the next one is a f a i k a f a i k

means as far as i know as far as i know

this expression means with the

information i have here is my

understanding of the situation so as far

as i know means

my understanding is blah blah blah so

uh as far as i know our barbecue is

going to happen at three tomorrow or as

far as i know the meeting is still on

for today or as far as i know i'm dog

sitting for my neighbor this weekend so

according to my information this is the

situation as far as i know a-f-a-i-k

okay one more um

a-f-a-i-k we're still meeting on sunday

iirc

the next expression or the next acronym

is i i r c i i r c means if i recall

correctly recall means remember if i

recall correctly so meaning if my memory

is correct this is the situation if i

recall correctly uh

spider-man's real name is peter parker

or if i recall correctly um donuts have

no calories lol so if i recall correctly

um tokyo is the capital city of japan uh

so this is like if i remember correctly

or if my memory is correct

this is what i think or this is the

information i i rc um so you might see

this like on message boards and

discussion boards in particular here one

more sentence

iirc we're supposed to meet in front of

the station

dm

the next one is dm dm means direct

message direct message so this is very

common on like twitter and facebook and

instagram very common on social media

and other social media portals dm direct

message so for for example on twitter we

can send public messages among users but

to send a direct message means other

people cannot see that message so a dm

is a direct message to someone so in a

sentence you could say uh dm me your

email address 10 ways to improve your

writing so let's go

don't use text speak

okay so the first tip to improve your

writing is don't use text speak text

speak by that i mean for example like

brb or lol or

those kinds of words the words that you

use on the internet like sns or in text

messages with your friends those very

short like slang words ttyl or lmao or

those sorts of acronyms do not use those

in your formal writing if you are

writing a letter a

a business email whatever do not use

those the only one that you can use in a

business email so not in a letter of

recommendation not in a formal letter

but the only thing you can use that's

sort of text

speakish

is the acronym fyi which means for your

information you can use fyi in a mail to

your colleagues and an email to your

colleagues or your co-workers

but usually it's with somebody you have

a good relationship with you can say fyi

in those cases other texts speak other

acronyms like that don't use them you

you will sound

immature you will sound

too casual

not a good idea use proper punctuation

the next hint is to use proper

punctuation proper punctuation

punctuation for example we have commas

we have periods semicolons colons

apostrophes quotation marks parentheses

all of these are punctuation marks the

little points in our writing that tell

readers where to stop reading or how

sentences are connected using proper

punctuation in your writing will help

your reader understand you and if your

reader understands you well and you've

used proper punctuation you will also

look a bit smarter too if you're not

using proper punctuation like for

example if you forget to use an

apostrophe in a word it's gonna look

kind of bad honestly for example if you

use the word uh your y-o-u apostrophe

r-e if you leave out the apostrophe if

you just write y-o-u-r-e

it looks lazy it looks lazy so make sure

to use proper punctuation to avoid

appearing lazy so don't forget your

little periods commas semicolons all

that

don't repeat the same vocabulary words

the next tip is don't repeat the same

vocabulary words don't repeat the same

vocabulary words she says repeating the

same sentence but don't repeat the same

vocabulary words means if you are using

like an adjective a specific adjective

in a sentence uh don't use that same

adjective in every other sentence like

try to use different adjectives to

describe your points if you're always

using exactly the same words to describe

your point like if for example i want to

write about

cake if i want to write an article about

cake and i just say this cake is

delicious this cake is so delicious i

loved this cake because it was delicious

this was so delicious

it's boring for the reader to read the

same word every single sentence or and

also you're not really communicating

very much if i just use the word

delicious to describe a cake the reader

doesn't understand why the cake is

delicious so give more detail when

you're sharing your opinions of course

this time it's a very simple opinion

about delicious cake but use a variety

of different adjectives

support your arguments with statements

that use different vocabulary words so

don't always say

the same word to describe something try

to use a lot of different vocabulary

words and think a lot about different

adjectives you can use if this is

difficult for you there is a tool you

can use

the english word for it is thesaurus

thesaurus so many of you know what a

dictionary is a book or a resource to

check the meaning of a word but you can

also use what's called a thesaurus with

a thesaurus you can search for synonyms

words which have the same or similar

meaning as other words so if i look for

the word like delicious i might get

let's see some synonyms for the word

delicious might be yummy tasty good um

delectable for example so there are a

whole range of other words that you can

use if you find that you are using the

same word in every sentence try to find

a different word you can use a thesaurus

to help you do that so avoid using the

same word in every sentence or avoid

using this repeated vocabulary words

avoid use of very and really

okay the next tip is to avoid the use of

very and really by this i mean

instead of saying to go back to my cake

example the cake was very delicious the

cake was really delicious very and

really are sort of lazy words of course

they're very very useful

they're very very useful when we're

speaking casually and when we're

thinking quickly but if you're writing

and you have some time to think about

what you're writing instead of using a

word that's

common like delicious and just attaching

very like this cake is very delicious

what's a different word that means very

delicious so can i replace very and

delicious with one different word like

scrumptious for example this cake is

scrumptious scrumptious means very

delicious it's only one word so if you

can do this if you apply

a

a word that means the same thing as very

or really plus another word it's going

to level up your vocabulary and you're

going to reduce the number of words in

the sentence so if i say this cake is

very delicious or if i say this cake is

scrumptious scrumptious has a much

stronger meaning than just very

delicious so avoiding the use of very

and really can level up your speech

quite significantly so give it a try

use transition words and phrases

the next tip is to use transition words

and phrases use transition words and

phrases so transition words are words

and well and phrases we use to move from

one idea to the next idea so continuing

in my cake example if i want to

introduce my scrumptious cake and then i

want to move on to a description of the

store that sells that cake i might use a

transition phrase or some kind of

sequence phrase to help me do that so if

in paragraph a i'm talking about my

scrumptious cake and how much i enjoyed

it and the chocolate flavors and the

amazing frosting i could use a

transition phrase for example by the way

if you're interested you can purchase

this cake at abc store for example so in

that case my transition phrase was by

the way a very casual transition phrase

depending on the kind of thing you're

writing you can use different transition

phrases if you're writing an academic

paper for example

when you want to add information you can

say additionally moreover furthermore

you can also use plus if you'd like to

add information in addition is another

one that you can use so when you want to

add information there are some

transition phrases or some ways to give

more information

to describe a sequence you can say next

then following that you can use your

words like first second third fourth

depending on the sequence you can say

subsequently or

consequently as well so think about the

relationship between the points you're

introducing think about all these

different relationships how do you want

to connect these ideas so instead of

just listing your points each point try

to think about how to connect those

points naturally

so depending on what you're writing the

words you use will change which is fine

but just think about the way you'd like

your reader to understand your

information and choose transition words

and phrases accordingly

organize your writing intro body

conclusion

okay the next one is a tip about

organization so the next tip is organize

your paper or organize your writing into

an introduction a body and a conclusion

so these are the three basic elements of

an academic paper or of an essay perhaps

an article as well introduction is as it

sounds it's introducing the main points

what are you going to talk about what is

your opinion what is your argument we

introduce that in the introduction then

the next part is the body of the paper

in other words the main points the

your real arguments everything you would

like to say about the things you

introduced in your introduction this is

where you get into the details of that

so the body of the paper is typically

the longest part of the paper or the

longest part of the essay so there's a

lot of information in the body section

finally the conclusion the conclusion of

the paper concludes or finishes the

paper in the conclusion you will

summarize your points from the body of

the paper and you should connect those

points to the items you introduced in

the introduction of your paper so all of

these elements these three elements

should connect together so if you are

finding that it's difficult to organize

your thoughts or you don't know how to

approach your paper or this item maybe

even an email you're writing you can try

to separate it into three sort of

categories introduction body conclusion

so introduce idea explain idea summarize

idea this can be very helpful in writing

avoid use of second person

okay the next hint is avoid use of

second person second person this is

going to take a little explanation so in

english writing we have three sort of

ways that we can write we can write in

first person which means for example i

went to the store i wanted to buy

something i met a friend so first person

i am the person sharing the story

sharing the information

in second person which is kind of rare

actually except in very casual styles of

writing uh the subject of the sentence

is you like you go to the store you buy

some milk you call your friend this is

kind of rare we see this in children's

books and like i say in sort of informal

articles online

third person style writing is using he

she and character names like he went to

the store she called her mother they

needed to see a doctor so there are

these three types of writing in english

language so first person second person

third person generally when you are

writing especially an academic paper

you'll use first person or third person

to do that if you're writing something

formal you should probably not use

second person sometimes you'll see uh

like a person describing an experiment

for example like you should submerge the

item in water or you should bake this at

350 degrees using you is fine in casual

situations when you're giving

instructions for example if you find it

in a recipe fine it's kind of sounds a

bit more casual it's very informal not

so important however if you find that

you are using

you you you in an academic paper it

sounds a bit uh too casual too informal

so please avoid use of second person so

reminder second person is the subject of

the sentence is you you so it sounds

like you're kind of commanding the other

person commanding the reader or giving

advice to the reader or telling the

reader what to do it sounds very odd so

avoid use of second person in your

writing

consider the tense you're using

the next tip is to consider the tense

you're using consider the tense you're

using so i'm just going to talk about

two tenses here really uh present tense

and past tense um so we can use the

present tense uh and the present

continuous tense really to explain a

story or to tell a story like it's

actually happening so if i say like i go

to the store i see a friend of mine

she's buying milk for example if i use

the present tense and i use the present

continuous tense it sounds like the

listener or if it's in writing uh it

sounds like that's actually happening

it's easier for the listener or the

reader to kind of experience the story

in that moment so if you want to create

some tension in your writing if you want

to create some excitement you can use

the present tense and its associated

tenses to kind of heighten the energy

level if you use past tense however you

might create more of a report nuance so

for example when you watch the evening

news or you read the newspaper

you might find that it's written in past

tense it's just reporting information

what happened so simple past tense is

used past tense and the other associated

tenses in past tense are used so when

you're writing consider what do you want

the reader to feel or what do you want

the reader to experience are you writing

a report maybe you should just use past

tense are you writing about general

facts

then if you're writing about a general

fact you should probably use present

tense but if you want to create like a

fiction story for example and you want

your reader to experience the story and

kind of feel enthusiastic or energetic

about your story uh present tense and

maybe continuous tense um with present

would be a better choice so just think

about which tense you're using for your

writing

consider appropriate vocabulary

the next tip is to consider appropriate

vocabulary consider appropriate

vocabulary so depending on the type of

thing you're writing there are words

that are good to use and there are words

that are not so good to use if you're

writing an academic paper for example

don't use casual words don't use curse

words in your paper don't use anything

that could be interpreted or could be

understood as informal if you're writing

something very casual on the other hand

it's fine to use casual words it's fine

to be informal to be a little bit funny

and it might sound strange if you do use

informal words or extremely polite words

so consider the appropriate kinds of

vocabulary words to be using depending

on what you're writing

learn to use references

okay the last tip is maybe the most

difficult tip the last tip is learn to

use references learn to use references

this is especially important if you are

writing academic papers or if you are

writing something

you're going to publish in like a

journal or maybe even a magazine using

references means you are using

references reading references and

writing about them and including what's

called a citation in your writing so

you're taking a piece of something that

someone else has written putting it in

quotation marks perhaps depending on the

way you choose to cite it and then

adding a reference list at the end of

your document to show

which documents you referenced which

documents were important to you in

making your argument so if you can use

references in your writing to support

your argument it can be a very very good

tool so if you

have just kind of an opinion piece you

want to write an article even for the

internet for example it can be very very

helpful to support your argument with

links to other

references with links to other

information about your opinion so yes

i'm it's most important it's most

focused on in academics in academia

really

but if you're writing even for the

internet learning how to reference

properly learning how to include others

works properly in your work can be

extremely valuable so try that out it's

it's a big topic it's a difficult topic

but learning how to use references can

really help you improve your writing

hi everybody welcome back to ask alicia

the weekly series where you ask me

questions and i answer them maybe first

question this week comes from hardik

patel hi heartick heartick says how can

i improve my spelling um yeah this is an

important question and we did a live

stream about this topic so i'll quickly

introduce the key points we talked about

in the live stream and hopefully they

can help you as kind of a starting point

so the first and most important thing to

do to improve your spelling is read

and make sure that you read things that

are properly edited properly prepared so

this means i don't recommend for example

social media posts because not everybody

is preparing everything thoroughly

before they write it it's not being

checked it's not being proof read before

it's being posted so i would recommend

books and magazines and newspapers that

kind of thing that has been properly

edited and properly checked this is

important because you're not just

listening to the words you're actually

reading the words you're reading the

words on the page so you're getting

familiar with how the word should be

spelled instead of just how it sounds

some other things that you can do are

word puzzles word puzzles are a lot of

fun in the live stream i talked about

something called crossword puzzles

crossword puzzles are word puzzles you

need to know some vocabulary words you

also need to know some like history

perhaps or science or maybe pop culture

and then you need to put your knowledge

together with your spelling knowledge to

create like the finished version of a

puzzle so a crossword is really fun and

you can find beginner level crossword

puzzles to try so as you practice as you

learn more english and as you learn more

about other topics too you can level up

the difficulty of your crossword puzzle

so that can be a fun way to do it

another thing that you can do is join a

spelling contest depending on where you

live you may have a spelling contest in

your city or in your country in the u.s

we have something called the spelling

bee it's for kids yes

so if you're watching this and you are a

kid if you are a young person who's

studying you can look for a spelling bee

if you are in the usa or maybe there's a

similar spelling contest in your country

so those are great ways to practice your

spelling because it's a contest you're

competing with other people to spell the

word correctly so that can be a fun way

to do things if you are a student if you

are a young person

another thing you can do regardless of

your age is watch english media with

subtitles so again like i mentioned for

the reading point make sure that the

subtitles have been properly prepared if

it's someone who has like created

subtitles that are maybe not perfect or

they were prepared by a non-native

speaker there might be some errors in

there

so if you can try to find media like

movies or even our videos for example

sometimes they have subtitles you can

try watching that with the subtitles on

so that you can understand the spelling

of the words as they're being said so

that's another fun way to study i think

really though i think reading is the

best thing that you can do this was

something i love to do when i was a kid

i participated in a spelling bee when i

was a kid and i think that reading

really helped me understand the correct

way to spell words and to like learn how

to identify new words in the future so

read i think that's the best thing you

can do thank you for your question and

good luck with your spelling let's go to

our next question next question cabs

fram nor aslina hi noor noor says hi

alicia my question is what is the

difference between i'm looking

and i've been looking we use i'm looking

for when we are in the act of searching

for something right now in this moment

we're looking for something so for

example at like a department store you

could say i'm looking for shoes i'm

looking for the restroom that's

something that you're doing right now

you're in the act of doing something

right now on the other hand i have been

looking for is used for something that

yes we're searching for it but the

search has continued for a long time so

for example i've been searching for a

new apartment for four months or

i've been searching for a new job in

general if you are in the act of

searching for something right now you

can use i'm looking for if it's

something that you've been searching for

for a period of time a long period of

time you can use i've been looking for i

hope that helps you thanks for the

question all right let's move on to our

next question next question comes from

lyan hi again lion lion says hi alicia i

hope you're doing great thank you uh i

have two questions what are the rules of

semicolons and when should i avoid them

there's one and two

in some languages a multiple choice test

is called an american test so is it true

that american tests are really mostly

multiple choice interesting let's go to

your first question about semicolons the

quick version is semicolons have two

uses the first use is they are used to

separate what's called compound

sentences a compound sentence is a

sentence that's made from two

independent clauses so there are two

clauses two parts to the sentence an

independent clause is a sentence that

can stand alone like we don't need any

other words to explain this sentence

that's an independent clause so when we

connect these two in a compound sentence

we can use a semicolon to connect the

two like right here so let's look at

some examples an independent clause is a

clause that is grammatically correct by

itself

no other words are required the

semicolon is used to separate the two

clauses like a period we do this when

the ideas are closely related the second

use is when you're separating items in a

list this can be tricky to do but the

reason we do this is because when you're

making lists that have like lots of

complicated information they include

commas for example it may be difficult

to understand where the items in a list

end or start so we use semicolons to

help readers understand the points in a

list here's an example this is a long

list so i'm going to read it the

citizens requested a new park complete

with a swimming pool improved roads

sidewalks and traffic lights and cleaner

schools

we have a few plans for our vacation

hiking biking and swimming near our

campsite having a bbq and enjoying

fireworks so you can see in these lists

actually all of the items have a

semicolon in between them that shows us

that's one item so we do that because

there are commas in other parts of the

list if we use commas to separate the

items in the list we might confuse the

reader so to show that each item is

clearly one item we use semicolons to do

that this is not as common like there

are not so many situations where you

need to use a semicolon in this way but

just in case this is the second use in

most cases we just use the first one you

don't need to avoid using the semicolon

it's a very convenient way to punctuate

your sentences so you don't have to

avoid it you can use it

just remember that you need to use it to

separate independent clauses like we

talked about in the first use

as for your second point that's very

interesting i didn't know that tests

were called american tests that's

interesting

we do have a lot of multiple choice

style tests for sure especially in like

high school and university levels for

like official tests like um and the sats

for example however we do have other

styles of tests too so we have fill in

the blank which i use a lot on this

channel in the whiteboard videos

we also have like essay essay tests or

essay examinations where students write

essays

we also have like free answers so a

student has to come up with an answer

like just from their own mind or using

their own skills we see that a lot in

math classes for example so yes there

are a lot of multiple choice tests but

doesn't mean that all tests are multiple

choice just it is very common so hope

that helps okay thanks for the questions

let's move along to our next question

next question comes from dewey sitta hi

again dewey sorry if i pronounced your

name wrong uh dewey says what is the

difference between below under

underneath beneath bottom and down nice

okay um there may be some differences

depending on the situation but generally

speaking let's look at the first

four examples you've presented we can

use all of these adverbs in the same way

let's take a look at some examples i

keep my hair dryer below the sink

i keep my hair dryer under the sink i

keep my hair dryer underneath the sink i

keep my hair dryer beneath the sink all

of these mean exactly the same thing the

differences here is that probably i

would say under is the most commonly

used in american english beneath sounds

perhaps the most formal and maybe the

most old-fashioned

so you can use them all in the same way

they refer to being positioned under or

like below something else so there's not

really much of a difference there i

think we just use under the most

uh the word bottom however that's a noun

that refers to the lowest part or like

the underside of something let's look at

some examples there there's dirt on the

bottom of my bag he cut the bottom of

the pumpkin so these refer to the

underside or the lowest point of

something so it's an actual noun not an

adverb then the last word in this list

is down so down is also an adverb but

down refers to motion so we use down

when we're actually talking about

movement of some kind so for example put

your hand down or walk down the stairs

he sat down in the chair so we're using

some kind of motion there's where

there's something happening from like an

upper level to a lower level there's

movement happening there so we use down

to express movement the first four words

that we talked about are used to talk

about position not about movement down

is used to talk about movement bottom is

used to talk about a place on something

so i hope that helps you thanks for the

question okay so that's everything that

i have for this week thank you as always

for sending your great questions

remember you can send them to me at

englishclass101.com

ask hyphen alicia if you like the video

please don't forget to give it a thumbs

up subscribe to our channel and check us

out at englishclass101.com

for some other resources for your

english studies thanks very much for

watching this week's episode and i will

see you again next week bye hi everybody

welcome back to ask alicia the weekly

series where you ask me questions and i

answer them maybe first question this

week actually is a pair of questions i

got a question from zohair which was hi

alicia how are you how can i improve my

writing skills and a question from zirak

xerox said how do i improve my writing

skills so i want to answer these two

questions together so

the simple answer is write more so if

you're having trouble starting your

writing practice something that you can

try doing is copying so if there's a

blog a magazine

a book that you enjoy reading if there's

something that kind of stands out to you

something that you think is really good

or really interesting you can start your

writing practice by just copying the

things that you find that you read so if

you find for example if you find a

blogger that you really enjoy and it's

easy for you to read you can start by

copying the lines from that blog when i

say copy i mean write by hand like with

a pen and paper try writing those things

by hand so you can kind of practice

creating a sentence on your own this can

be a really good way for you to begin

writing practice then when you get a

little more comfortable you can try

using your own words and your own

vocabulary to kind of make your own

sentences in the same style as your

favorite writer so i would say a good

way to start writing and a good way

maybe to improve your writing making it

more natural is to just begin by copying

other people it's just a matter of

practice so keep practicing keep writing

keep creating i hope that this helps you

okay let's move on to your next question

next question this week comes from wong

ang hai fuang fuang says how do i write

a good paragraph in english okay

there's kind of a three-step process to

writing a good paragraph in english you

can think of your paragraph in three

parts you can think of first an

introduction second a body and third a

conclusion

so in the introduction to your paragraph

the beginning of your paragraph you

should share the ideas you're going to

talk about in the paragraph so that's

like your first sentence what are you

going to explain to your reader what are

you going to share in this paragraph

in the second part the body of your

paragraph you should give the details if

you're explaining data you can put

numbers in that section for example if

you're giving like quotes if you're

giving supporting information or

supporting evidence you can include that

in the body part of your paragraph this

is your details you can also include

your opinions in this part of the

paragraph so what do you think

third your conclusion the conclusion

part should summarize your main ideas so

what do you want the reader to remember

from this paragraph and maybe how does

it connect to your next paragraph so try

to think about writing paragraphs in

kind of this three-step process you

introduce something you give details and

you conclude so think about this for

your paragraph yes but also think about

this when you're writing a paper as well

you should have an introduction and a

body and a conclusion to your paper so i

hope that this helps you in writing

paragraphs smaller pieces of writing and

in writing papers or essays larger

pieces of writing thanks very much for

the question okay let's move along to

your next question next question comes

from ahmed mohammed hi ahmed ahmed says

hi alicia how are you good why is it

when i watch you or watch any other

english teacher on youtube i understand

them easily but when i watch any

programs on tv like movies and news i

find it difficult to understand what

should i do to understand anything i

listen to

okay

so your first question why can you

understand the teachers on youtube this

is a common question from lots of people

actually the reason that you can

understand teachers on youtube or maybe

teachers in your classroom is because

we're doing what's called grading our

language so grading your language means

that you choose to use vocabulary words

and grammar points that are suitable for

the learners so that means that we

choose our words and we choose the way

that we speak to help learners

understand us so that means that we

speak a little slower we speak with very

clear pronunciation we're speaking with

a level of grammar that we think our

students will probably be able to

understand and we're choosing to use

vocabulary words that we think are

probably easy for learners to understand

too

so when you're watching youtube teachers

a lot of youtube teachers including us

on this channel we're thinking about how

to help people at kind of an

intermediate level like a medium level

so i'm choosing grammar and vocabulary

words and kind of the way that i speak

to try to help people move into like

intermediate to advanced intermediate

language territory so this is why there

seems to be such a big gap between like

youtube teachers and regular movies and

news when you're watching movies and

news those people are not grading their

language so they're not aware of their

vocabulary choices they're not thinking

about the level of grammar they use

they're speaking regularly so the way

that teachers speak is kind of a way to

help learners ease into or get used to

that native level of speaking it can be

really hard for learners to pick up all

the small details of native level speech

so we slow it down and we present it in

a different way to help learners so when

you get comfortable with people who

teach like me on youtube you can kind of

look for other things at higher

difficulty levels so maybe this means

you find a vlogger on youtube that

speaks in english or you start to find

other topics or other things related to

your hobbies but that use english so

that will take a little bit of searching

on your part but just keep working on

leveling up your language skills so if

i'm too easy for you to understand

that's okay you can move on to find

something else until you can gradually

work up to understanding native level

conversations so that's a long answer

but i hope that it helps answer your

question thanks very much okay let's

move on to your next question next

question comes from bakhtar khan hi

bhaktar bhaktar says hi alicia what is

the difference between swear vow and

oath i don't understand the difference

okay uh swear swear is a verb swear is

like a rough word that means promise

some examples i swear i won't break your

computer again

he swore he wouldn't forget to take out

the trash

next is vow the word vow can be used as

a noun or as a verb it's used in more

formal situations we use it for example

in weddings or maybe in like legal

situations some examples do you vow to

take this woman as your wife i vow never

to do anything like this again oath is a

noun and it's kind of an old-fashioned

word it's sort of like an old-fashioned

mysterious word for

promise it kind of has a very mysterious

a little bit of a dark feeling an oath

examples i took an oath to never reveal

the details of our group

have you ever taken a blood oath so i

hope that helps you understand the

differences between swear vowel and oath

thanks very much for the question okay

let's move on to your next question next

question comes from yoshitaka horikoshi

hi yoshitaka yoshitaka says hi alicia i

watched the video english greetings for

every day it was easy to understand and

fun however in the video you said where

was i what do you mean where was i ah

this where was i this is a common

expression that means where was i in my

notes so when you're reading something

or when you're giving a presentation

and you get lost like in the details

like you have some notes some kind of

like reference material you're using to

give your presentation and you miss like

your place you forget your place you can

say where was i meaning where in my

notes was i so we'll often use this when

we're presenting material and we need to

start again so in that case if i'm

teaching a lesson

and i like miss my place if i forget my

place in my notes i might i probably

said where was i meaning at what point

was i in my presentation so i would use

this if maybe like a student had a

question and i answered the question and

then i forgot exactly where in my lesson

notes i was located at that time so

where was i means like what was i

talking about a moment ago i hope that

helps you thanks very much for the

question all right let's move on to your

next question next question comes from

iman hi again i'm on i'm on says hi

alicia what does stack the deck mean ah

to stack the deck means to prepare an

advantage

before a situation before some kind of

event so the advantage is prepared so

that one person or like one organization

wins so this expression comes from card

games first we see a deck so to stack

the deck the deck refers to a deck of

cards that's the vocabulary word we use

to mean a complete set of cards a deck

of cards to stack to stack means to put

things one on top of another so when we

stack a deck or to stack the deck as in

this expression it means we're placing

cards in a careful like organized manner

to create an advantage for someone in a

situation so to stack the deck means

before the situation you prepare all

like the parts to create a win for one

person or maybe to create a loss for

another person so to stack the deck

means to create an advantage or a

disadvantage for someone else so some

example sentences the deck was stacked

against him

in that expression the deck was stacked

against him means the situation was

created so that he would lose

we use against someone to refer to

creating a situation where a person

loses something so we stacked the deck

just means we created an unfair

advantage or we created an advantage

before the situation so i hope that this

helps you understand this expression

thanks very much for the question all

right that's everything that i have for

this week thank you as always for

sending your questions remember you can

send them to me at englishclass101.com

for some other things that can help you

with your english studies thanks very

much for watching this week's episode of

ask alicia and i will see you again next

week bye bye

welcome back to weekly words my name is

alicia and this week we're going to talk

about commonly misspelled words i'm

excited about this because i like

catching misspellings believe

uh to believe something just means to

accept something as true or not true in

the negative believe is commonly

misspelled do they spell it the live

well believe is commonly misspelled

don't do that

so if you're having trouble remembering

the correct way to spell the word

believe consider that the word lie is in

the middle of the word which is kind of

counterintuitive if you've been paying

attention to the weekly word series uh

if you're trying to persuade a friend to

do something you might say please

believe me this is going to be the best

party ever you have to come okay the

next is a lot this is commonly

misspelled because people like to put

the uh and the lot together it's

actually two separate words ah and lot

a lot just means a large number of

something or a large amount of something

many of something in a sentence you

might say something like i have a lot of

hobbies i like skiing snowboarding and

white water rafting so just spell them

separately don't put it all together

oh the next uh there there and there

students of english tend to be better

about spelling these words than native

speakers of english and i find that very

interesting the first there t h e r e

refers to a place as in he lives over

there the book is over there somewhere

other than where you are right now the

second form

t-h-e-i-r is the possessive form of they

as in that's their house that's their

dog something that belongs to some other

group of people and the last form

t-h-e-y apostrophe r-e they are refers

to equality about another group of

people as in they are the students they

are the teachers it's the contracted

form of they are onward the next word is

grateful grateful the meaning of

grateful grateful just means that you

appreciative of something in a sentence

you might say oh i feel so grateful my

teacher took time after class to explain

this concept to me

grateful is commonly misspelled because

this g-r-a-t-e

sounds just like the word great

g-r-e-a-t

but actually that great good meaning is

uh not the correct spelling for this

word we use great instead um

this spelling of great is also used as a

verb as integrate things in the kitchen

um

i don't know if that has any relation to

this or not probably not it's g-r-a-t-e

next is receive receive to receive

something as a verb means um to be given

something or to get something receive

can be kind of tricky because of the i

and the e a place where the i before e

except after c rule applies

it's not a 100 true rule um but

typically after the letter c

if the letters e and i need to follow it

after the letter c i is typically not

the first letter to come usually it's e

that's the first letter so it should be

c e i v e receive rather than recycle or

something like that uh in a sample

sentence you might say uh i received a

gift from my friend on my birthday i was

really happy about that welcome back to

weekly words my name is alicia and today

we're going to talk about words with

weird silent letters i like the title of

this one let's get started the first

word is pterodactyl a pterodactyl is a

dinosaur this was a flying dinosaur from

the late jurassic period i totally knew

that on my own pterodactyl begins with a

p but we don't say the ps just starts

with a t sound in a sentence you might

say the pterodactyl is my favorite

dinosaur the next word is mortgage ah my

students messed up this word mortgage

like last week in class mortgage has a t

in it but we don't say the t it sounds

like mortgage like there's no t at all a

mortgage is the payment that you make on

your house every month if if you've had

to take a loan from a bank in a sentence

my mortgage payments are very reasonable

i hope the next word is isle isle is a

weird word

so yes there's an s in the word isle but

it is not pronounced i slay it's

pronounced i'll isle with an a in front

is the space between uh rows of seats on

an airplane for example or the space

between shelves and a supermarket any

sort of pathway

is an aisle in a sentence please keep

your feet out of the aisle on the

airplane because

the cart might

bump you the next word is faux fo has an

x at the end when it's spelled on paper

but we do not say folks

we don't say that we say fo fo means

fake faux means something that's not

real very commonly you'll hear this in

terms of faux fur as in i prefer to wear

faux fur because i don't believe that we

should kill animals all right the next

word is asthma

we were just talking about how i have

asthma asthma is uh spelled very weirdly

there's a th in there but we do not say

the th it's it sounds like asma asthma

asthma is a

respiratory condition you might have

asthma it's very common where it might

be difficult for you to breathe

sometimes you need to take medicine in a

sentence i carry my inhaler everywhere

because i have asthma

大家好，我的名字是 alicia 在这

节课中，我们将讨论

电子邮件写作的介绍，所以我在

这里有电子邮件写作，但这是

专门针对商业或

其他正式场合的电子邮件写作 情况 我们将

讨论

格式 英文电子邮件的一般格式 我们将

讨论一些您

可以用来解释自己或

介绍想法的模式

等等 我们将看到一些示例 所以

让我们开始吧

首先我想看看

一般格式电子邮件的基本部分

至少在

美国英语商业电子邮件方面的电子邮件

简单地说我们从一个开始 问候 一个

简单的问候 你信中亲爱的部分

一个问候也许然后是一个

介绍性的短语或一些

介绍目的的东西 写电子邮件的原因

以下将是

您需要提供的任何背景信息或任何细节，

以实现您的目的

电子邮件

明确，在结束声明之后进行

一些总结，以向

您的读者展示您正在结束消息

，然后签字，这实际上

是电子邮件中您姓名之前的最后一点，

所以我们将讨论这些

要点 让我们看看您

可以在这些电子邮件中使用的一些模式

让我们

从电子邮件

的

问候部分开始 觉得它

有点过时，

但它很有礼貌，大多数人都

熟悉它，它可能关心

的人只是指相关的人，所以

这封电子邮件是给相关的人的 o

对这个问题的询问，所以它只是

意味着换句话说，我不知道将

这封电子邮件发给谁，但

请把它交给合适的人

合适的人这是礼貌的方式

来表达它可能与

谁有关 它可能会担心我们不会在

演讲中使用它可能会担心它可以

打开电子邮件以

在电子邮件中问候您的问候

如果您确实知道

要向您发送电子邮件的人可以

以亲爱的开头

然后添加先生小姐或 mrs

Miss 和 mrs 之间的区别 Misses 用于

已婚女性 Miss 用于未婚

女性如果您不知道她

是否已婚未婚使用 Miss Miss 是更安全的

选择 如果您也可以使用

教授或医生等头衔 知道

对方是医生 拥有博士学位

是教授 助理教授 如果

您知道他们的头衔，您可以

在问候亲爱的教授 xyz 或亲爱的

abc 博士时使用它，例如，

您也可以

在这里使用部门名称，所以亲爱的，也许是

国际部门 nt 员工

例如，您可以使用

部门和员工的名称，如果它

更笼统一些，例如您不知道

确切将其发送给谁，但您确实

知道部门，您可以在

那里使用部门员工，因此部门

名称在此

好的，所以一旦你

在电子邮件的开头写下你的问候，

那么你就可以进入你的介绍

和你的目的那么你为什么

写这封电子邮件这些是

你可以首先使用的一些模式我的名字是所以如果这

是 当你第一次联系

对方时，你可以用

这个来介绍自己

所以我的名字是艾丽西亚，我正在写

关于呃学习英语的文章，

所以你的主题可能应该是

一个名词短语，

所以无论

你的电子邮件查询的主题是什么，你都可以把它放在

这里

更简单的 也许你已经认识

另一个人，你可以说我正在写

关于你的主题的文章，所以我正在写

关于你学校的英语学习的文章，

例如

我正在写的另一个人，

所以我在这里使用过关于你可以

使用 about here too about 只是

听起来比 about 更正式一些

，所以尽管这意味着

你可能正在介绍一些东西，或者

你希望有人为你做一些事情，

所以我写信是为了联系我正在计划的一个新

活动 所以也许你正

试图为一个新活动收集支持，

例如，为了伸出援手，你正在

介绍一些你可能会

寻求帮助的东西

与你核对，换句话说，我正在写信

看看你是否

会对未来的手段感兴趣，你是否

有机会

对再次感兴趣的话题感兴趣，所以我正在

写信看看是否 你会对

comin感兴趣 g 参加本月晚些时候的一个活动，

我写信是想看看你

是否有兴趣

在我的学校教授一个研讨会，所以这

又是你希望其他

人参与的事情，或者你希望他们

为你做一些事情，你可以问

关于他们的兴趣，这

比说请做这个要好得多，所以

请做 xyz 听起来太直接了

问对方是否

有兴趣 他们是否对

更好的介绍感兴趣

提出请求或当您

撰写一般主题时，那么您如何

解释有关这一点的一些背景和一些细节

，所以

如果您正在撰写关于

类似问题的文章，也许您

从公司订购了一些问题，或者

可能 这是一项服务交易，嗯，

某种类似商业

交易，这是你的话题，

例如，我的名字是艾丽西亚，我正在

写一本关于我订购的教科书，

如果你想写的话 e 并解释一个

问题，您可以使用其中的几种

模式，例如前两种模式，例如，我

在 1 月 15 日订购了一本教科书，

但它还没有到货，

所以在这里我

订购的产品是我的订单日期

也许订单号也会很好，所以

在此声明之后您可以解释

问题，例如我收到的教科书

是湿的或教科书是

错误的教科书，因此您可以

在此表达式之后解释问题，

所以这些可能是订单或 也许

是一种服务情况，让我们看看

这里的第二对如果您正在寻找

某人为您工作，或者如果您

希望某人参与

某事，您可以尝试使用其中一种

模式让我们看看

我们正在寻找的第一对 也为某人加上您的

任务，所以我们正在寻找可以

帮助我们输入数据的人 我们正在

寻找可以在互联网上教授英语课程

的人所以

您会再次感兴趣吗？

我们看到这里询问他们的

兴趣所以如果你说请做这个或

为我们做这个太直接了

你是否有兴趣我们通常会说

你是否有兴趣参与

你是否有兴趣教学你是否

有兴趣领导 例如课程

所以问其他人是否

喜欢做那件事或者他们是否有

兴趣学习更多所以这里

是邀请某人做某事

或请求某人时间

或请求某人技能

的一种方式所以这是一种模式

另一个

我们正在计划一个活动并

想发出邀请 发出

邀请是一种正式的表达方式，这

意味着我们想邀请您，所以这是

我们的 这是我们的正式邀请，

发出邀请意味着邀请

某人参加某事，但是 这是

我们用来扩展的正式表达，意思是

喜欢把东西拿出来，所以喜欢

让东西更长，想象你的手臂

伸出来，像

我们的手一样发出邀请

嗯，所以我们正在计划一个研讨会，

也许也想向您发出邀请，

所以这是一个

活动邀请，

或者您还想邀请

这个人喜欢

我们正在计划一个会议 并

想邀请您

在会议上发表演讲，

例如，我们可以通过多种方式

更改这句话以邀请

某人参与某事，好吧，

让我们继续讨论一些结束

信息，以便在您完成之后 解释了

背景和细节，并且您

已经提出了关键问题或

解释了问题，然后我们可以

通过包含其中一个表达方式向读者展示电子邮件已完成

这些

只是几个示例，

但它们非常笼统，所以 首先

感谢您抽出宝贵的时间，所以这

可能是一个简单的询问，或者如果您正在

解释一个问题并且您

只是想表达您的感谢，

谢谢您抽出

宝贵的时间 她的，

我期待很快收到您的来信 我

期待收到您

的回信

尽快收到您的回复

您希望得到

及时的答复 您希望

在合理的时间

内得到答复 如果有任何其他

信息我可以提供，我很

乐意准备，所以这意味着 如果

这里还有其他

信息，如果有

其他人需要

您的任何其他信息，电子邮件的作者很乐意

准备该信息，所以

换句话说，如果您需要某些东西，这是一个邀请，

请告诉我，我会

准备的，所以 这些是一些很好的

句子，你可以用它们来关闭你的电子邮件，

然后电子邮件写作的最后一部分

是签字，所以

这里有很多不同的签字

，我觉得一些很常见，

对你来说很容易 se和礼貌以及真诚

很好真诚是很基本的嗯

你可以在大多数情况下

毫无问题地使用它听起来

很典型嗯我想它听起来不

那么

温暖但

我个人喜欢使用另一个很好 使用

best so best 显示 嗯，这很短，这

是我最好的一种缩写表达，

或者我希望你最好，

但有点短，更专业一点

温暖的感觉或喜欢我的

意思是最好的方式我的

意思是我的电子邮件会被热情地收到

我所看到的另一

封邮件很友好，所以这封邮件就像一个请求，或者可能只是一封与信息相关的电子邮件，

所以这意味着我打算这样做

以善意阅读的电子邮件，所以请不要

说我很生气或任何善意的意思，

嗯，有时我看到人们使用

你的或真诚的你的那些太

亲密了他们是私人的，所以使用

你的意味着你有 ap

与阅读电子邮件的人的个人关系，

或者可能是亲密关系，

所以我通常

在专业电子邮件中避免

使用你的关系 不要在专业电子邮件中使用爱，

比如我的爱或类似的

东西 不要在你的电子邮件中使用它

但坚持其中一个，

在大多数情况下你应该没问题，所以

请小心不要使用你的

也不要使用爱

，但这只是

电子邮件写作的快速介绍，尤其是

专业和商业相关的电子邮件

我 希望这对您有帮助，如果

您有任何问题，或者如果您想

尝试其中一种模式，或者如果

您想在电子邮件中使用不同的模式，

资源非常感谢观看

本课程，我会再见到你

很快再见，

大家好，我的名字是 alicia 在

本课中我将介绍

一些拼写技巧这些是

我希望可以帮助您改进

拼写的一些技巧 我准备这些技巧时考虑到了

英语，但我认为其中

一些 提示也适用于

您正在学习的其他语言，所以

让我们开始吧，第一个提示和

提高拼写的最重要提示

是阅读阅读

真的非常重要，因为您

实际上可以看到页面上的单词，

尤其是在 英语有很多

单词的发音与

它们的拼写方式不同

阅读可以帮助您熟悉

自己 可以帮助您更好地理解

单词的正确拼写方式 不仅要

听单词，还要实际

看单词，因此阅读非常

重要

但是，当您阅读时

，要记住一

件事有好处，因此要考虑一件事，

因此选择书籍或报纸或

杂志进行阅读，但是 你

应该做的是确保你阅读和

听东西我会谈论

这个

阅读的东西已经编辑

编辑意味着有人检查了文本以

确保没有错误

没有错误所以确保你是

阅读已经被

很多母语人士检查过的东西，尤其是在

Facebook 或 twitter 或 instagram 等社交媒体上，

他们肯定会发布

消息，但他们没有被检查，

比如英语没有得到正确检查，

或者他们使用的是非常非正式的英语

因此，当您阅读和

练习拼写时，请

注意阅读时的单词，

确保您选择的是

经过编辑的内容，这样您就可以确保

有时当我们随意交谈时您正在阅读正确的英语

或

随便写 我们不太关心

我们的语法或拼写，所以请

确保使用

为您的拼写研究而编辑过的材料

g 你可以在阅读时

选择一本有音频版本的书，

这意味着当你阅读这本书时，你

可以同时听发音

，当然如果你也很忙，

你可以只听音频和

学习这个故事，但是如果你想

练习你的发音和

听力技巧，除了你的

拼写和阅读技巧，你可以

考虑尝试一本有声读物，这样你就可以一边

读一边听

，这可能是另一种有趣的

练习方式 技能

，但这

是本课最重要的提示是阅读

阅读 阅读很多，

如果你找到

在线杂志或报纸或

类似的东西，你可以每天都做这件事，你喜欢你

可以阅读 例如，在你上班的路上，

或者可能在午餐时，

每天在这里和那里花几分钟来练习你的阅读

技巧并提高你的拼写技巧

好的，让我们继续下一个

技巧 下一个技巧 这里是玩文字游戏

或做文字游戏，我们有

很多英文版的，我在

这里举了几个例子，所以文字游戏和文字

游戏是相似的，我先介绍

一下所谓的填字游戏，所以这

是一个 填字游戏看起来像

一个空白填字游戏这是一个全新的填字游戏

我制作的一个简单的填字游戏是由盒子制成的

当你玩填字

游戏或尝试完成

填字游戏时，盒子从左到右，从上到下 你的工作是阅读

谜题旁边的线索，每条

线索都与一行或一列方框匹配，

所以你的工作是找到

与这条线索匹配的单词

，你必须正确拼写单词

才能将字母放入方框中 所以我

在这里准备了一个非常简单的，所以我将它们

编号为

一二和三，所以在这里我

再次提示一二和三，这

很简单通常纵横字谜

非常大，它们有很多线索，

但只是为了 告诉你如何交叉 单词

谜题

在这里的第一个线索是第一条这

说黄色水果黄色水果所以

黄色水果是柠檬所以我们把每个

字母

放在盒子里柠檬

我们知道拼写是正确的或者我们

至少可以有一个很好的

猜测 拼写是正确的，因为它

适合盒子

然后我们看下一个线索第二个

在这里第二个哦对不起我犯了一个

错误第二个实际上应该

在这里

第二个是眼睛配件眼睛

配件所以配件是一

小块 衣服或珠宝，

例如在这种情况下，它是为你的眼睛准备的，

所以眼镜配件就是眼镜，所以我们

在每个盒子里写一个字母的眼镜眼镜，

它适合这里，它也适合

我们第一个线索中来自柠檬的 l，

所以眼镜终于来了 这里的最后一条

线索这条线索是

不花钱的东西不花钱的东西

所以我们可以用一个词来描述

它是免费的，

所以这是一个非常简单的

填字游戏示例，但是哟 你的工作是

把不同的词汇组合在一起，

就像我说的那样这很简单，

但是如果你对

填字游戏感兴趣，你可以做一个快速的

谷歌搜索，你可以找到

更难的初学者填字游戏

还有一些极具挑战性的

问题，你需要了解很多，

比如历史、科学或流行文化

才能找到答案，但这是

提高拼写的一种非常有趣的方法，因为

你必须确保

拼写正确 要

完成这个谜题，您可以单独或与

朋友一起完成这很有趣的另一件事

您可以玩文字游戏文字游戏所以

这是一种更普遍的事情

我列出了几个文字

游戏的例子有一个非常流行和

众所周知 文字游戏叫做拼字游戏它

看起来类似于填字游戏，

但不同的是没有线索

没有提示你和一群人一起玩

，每个人都必须

从 字母所以想象你

有很多小的单个字母，

你的工作是从这些字母中创造单词，

你把单词放在板上

，你的朋友从你选择的单词中创造新单词，

所以这是一种

练习拼写的有趣方式 并且

想一想你可以

用你拥有的字母做的其他事情所以这

是一种练习拼写的有趣方式

我认为

如果你很难获得

这个游戏或玩这个游戏你可以

试试

这个 与朋友一起玩单词 这是一个

免费的应用程序，所以如果你有

智能手机，你可以在网上找到这个它

被称为与朋友的单词它基本上是

拼字游戏，但它是在线的而且它是免费的，

所以你可以在世界的某个地方找到

你不需要的合作伙伴 和那个人交谈，

但你可以玩这个游戏，

从你的伴侣所说的话中构建单词

等等，然后你尝试

竞争，你试图在游戏中获得最高分

来获胜，所以如果你想

练习文字游戏，你可以试试这些 e

还有其他文字游戏，如果

您进行快速谷歌搜索，您可以

找到一些文字游戏的其他示例，

但这些都很受欢迎，

好吧

最后还有拼写比赛我

在这里包括拼写比赛，因为

这是我们在美国做的事情

至少我们为孩子们举办了一场名为拼写比赛的拼写比赛，

所以

你可能在你的国家有类似的事情，

或者

如果你

是美国的年轻人，你可能有兴趣参加

拼写比赛，所以每个参赛者都有拼写比赛 要

正确拼写一个单词，但是这个

人必须依靠他或她

对单词的了解，这意味着可能

是单词的根源 单词的历史，

例如单词最初来自哪里

单词在句子中

的使用方式 词性 依此类推，所以这

可能是

练习拼写和练习

单词历史的一种有趣方式，因此

如果您没有官方 sp，拼写比赛当然会很有趣

elling 比赛 你

可以和你的朋友组创建一个拼写比赛

好的 让我们继续

下一个技巧 我这里的下一个技巧是记住

一些基本规则 一些基本拼写

规则 所以我已经包含了一些

基本规则的例子 例如

，以 shun 音结尾的单词，我们经常使用

这种

拼写来拼写

该音 认为我们应该

使用 f 来拼写这个词，但

实际上以 gh 结尾的词已经足够了

，有些词以able 或

类似的 ible 结尾，例如可能

或有能力，所以记住这些

词尾

可以帮助你，因为它们非常非常

常用的，如果您了解

如何大致像这样拼写这个词，

那么您至少

在脑海中有这种规则，它

可以在您阅读和

尝试拼写该单词

时为您提供帮助 在某些情况下，您

需要记住规则并不

完美，所以我在这里将其标记为规则，

因为它不像 100% 规则，

所以一个很好的例子是这个非常常见的

表达我在学校学到的，

但这实际上不是 100

有时这条规则是有帮助的 i 在 e 之前，

除了在 c 之后 这是一个非常常见的

拼写规则，这意味着我们应该

始终将 i 放在 e 之前，

但是当你拼写一个单词并且

c 在单词中时，我们不应该遵循

这个规则 这就是这个意思，所以

在某些情况下它是有帮助的，但

在某些情况下，这条规则

无效，它不起作用，所以

这里可以的例子

收据所以这里我们有 ac

并且 e 排在第一， i 排在第二

这是相反的，在这个词中是

正确的

，它是正确的，

没有 c，所以 i 在 eied 之前我们

在这个词中看到同样的东西，这里也哭

了，所以在这些例子中它是

正确的，但是这里有几个例子

这条规则不正确的地方 就像

奇怪的一样 e 排在第一位 i

在这个词中排在

第二位

i 仍然出现在 e 之前，

所以请记住，如果您听到这样的规则

或某种您知道的表达来

帮助您拼写，

请尝试记住这并不总是一个完美的

规则，它们有时很有帮助，但

您需要考虑这一点 有一些

例外 一些不太

符合规则的东西 好吧 让我们继续

下一个拼写技巧 下一个拼写技巧

是观看带字幕的

英文媒体 观看带字幕的英文媒体

意味着像电影 tv youtube 视频

一样 所以请阅读 并同时听

发音，这样

单词就会以英语出现在屏幕底部，

这意味着不一定

用您的母语观看，但

您正在听人说话

用英语阅读，你正在阅读

英文字幕，这样你就可以找到一个

新单词，或者你也可以

更好地理解拼写，

所以如果你非常了解一部电影，这可能是一个有趣的提示

，例如你 已经

看过很多次了，您可能会尝试

用英文字幕观看它，以了解一些

您以前在电影中从未注意到的新事物，

所以这是

您可以做的另一件有趣的事情，您可以在

学习的同时

享受媒体，所以这些都是 一些拼写技巧

记住这里最重要的事情

是阅读阅读我真的建议

阅读它也很有趣

但是这些只是你可以做的一些事情，如果你喜欢做你认为有的其他事情，你

可以做一些事情来改善你的

拼写

帮助

您成为更好的拼写者

任何时候您想提供额外的

信息，您都可以使用 fyi，所以 fyi

明天烧烤

仍然会下雨或 仅供参考，

我将在 30 分钟内离开，所以如果你

需要和我说话，现在就这样做，或者在这

句话中供我参考，我今天必须早点离开

brb 下一个是 brb brb brb

意味着马上回来就是对的 ba ck 我要

离开一会儿，然后很快回来，

所以马上回来意味着很快

我会回来，马上回来 brb

有时尤其是年轻人

在演讲中使用 brb 就像他们要

离开房间一样 在我附近一会儿

，然后他们也回来了，所以

这些词中的一些实际上在演讲中使用，

尤其是在年轻人中

造句我要吃零食 brb

omg 下一个非常受欢迎

下一个是 omg omg 的意思 哦，

天哪 所以你看到了一些有趣的东西，

天哪，哈哈，你可以把这些组合起来，比如

第一个词，哈哈，天哪，这个视频

你可以用

我用的方式来发笑，

呵呵，哈哈，所以你可以使用它，或者你可以使用大声笑，但是我的天啊

这就是我们 用来表达那种

震惊的感觉 omg so in a sentence

we can say omg i can't believe it oh my

god我简直不敢相信

首字母缩略词 实际上是拼写错误

所以这个的发音是

什么 非常强烈的 u 发音 这

来自单词 what what

what what

但是我们在互联网上使用拼写错误的 uh

并用文字和东西来

暗示类似 呃，一种愚蠢的感觉

，当你想说什么时，

你对某事感到困惑，但

情况非常愚蠢，或者只是

嗯，很难理解或混淆，

或者没有意义，你可以使用

what like a 非常它有一种非常 uh 之

类的哑音

，在单词中，你的哑音是一样的，所以它就像什么

uh 而不是

什么具有更强的声音，所以我们

在

一些

没有意义的情况下使用什么 就像我的室友

没回家一样 晚上什么所以这

有点令人困惑这可能是

一个极端的例子实际上在这

句话中你的室友想要一只狗但

不想付钱

所以这又是

一个在 文本很难

在

语音中准确地发出声音我想这很难

检测到但是当你拼写

错误的时候

它给人的印象是嗯

情况没有意义它

有点愚蠢或奇怪这表明

你很困惑 它表明某些东西

对您来说没有意义，所以这

更常见实际上这

主要用于这主要用于

文本中，只是我们在语音中不经常使用它，

好吧

顺便说一句

，下一个是顺便说一句，顺便说一句

顺便说一下，嗯，年轻人会在对话中使用

bt dubs 或者是 bt dubs 而不是

btw 互联网我不建议将其

用于商业电子邮件或商业写作，

但在 twitter facebook

instagram 等上你可以使用顺便说一句，顺便说一句非常方便的意思，顺便说一句，你

能把你欠我的钱还给我吗？

下一个是 afaikafaik

意味着据我所知据我所知

这个表达意味着

我所掌握的信息是我

对情况的理解所以

据我所知意味着

我的理解是等等等等等等

我们的烧烤

将在明天三点举行，或者

据我所知，今天的会议仍在

进行，或者据我所知，我是

这个周末为我的邻居坐着的狗，所以

根据我的信息，这

是目前的情况 我知道 afaik

好吧 又一个 um

afaik 我们还在周日

iirc 见面

下一个表达或下一个首字母缩写词

是 iirciirc 表示如果我没

记错的话

如果我没

记错的话就是这样

或者，如果我的记忆是正确的，

这就是我的想法，或者这就是

信息 ii rc um 所以你可能会

在留言板和

讨论板上看到这样的内容，特别是在这里

我们应该在车站前见面的一句话 iirc

dm

下一个是 dm dm 表示直接

消息直接消息，所以这

在 twitter 和 facebook 和

instagram 上很常见，在社交媒体

和其他社交媒体门户网站上很常见 dm 直接

消息，例如在 twitter 上，我们

可以在用户之间发送公共消息，但是

发送直接消息意味着其他

人看不到该消息，因此 dm

是给某人的直接消息，所以在一个

句子中你可以说 uh dm me your

email address 提高写作水平的 10 种方法，

所以让 去

不要用文字说话

好吧，所以提高写作的第一个技巧

是不要使用文字说话文字

说话我的意思是例如像

brb或lol或

那些你

在互联网上使用的词 像 sns 或在

与朋友的短信中 那些非常

短的像俚语 ttyl 或 lmao 或

类似的首字母缩略词

如果您正在写一封信，请不要在正式写作中使用它们

aa 商务电子邮件无论什么都不要使用

那些您唯一的 可以在

商业电子邮件中使用，所以不能在推荐信中，也

不能在正式信函

中使用，但你唯一可以使用的

那种文字

说话的

是首字母缩略词 fyi，这意味着

你可以在给同事的邮件中使用 fyi

给您的同事或同事的电子邮件，

但通常是

与您关系良好的人发送的，

在这种情况下

可以说 fyi

不是一个好主意 使用正确的

标点符号 下一个提示是使用正确的

标点符号 正确的标点符号

标点符号 例如我们有逗号

我们有句号 分号 冒号

撇号 引号 括号

所有这些都是标点符号

我们写作中的小点，告诉

读者在哪里 停止阅读或在写作中

使用正确的标点符号如何连接句子

将有助于

您的读者理解您，如果您的

读者很好地理解您并且您

使用了正确的标点符号，如果您没有使用正确的标点符号，您

也会看起来更聪明一些

例如，如果您忘记

在单词中使用撇号，老实说，它会看起来

有点糟糕 例如，如果您

使用单词 uh your you 撇号

re 如果您省略撇号，如果

您只写 yourre

它看起来很懒 它看起来很懒 所以让 一定

要使用正确的标点符号以避免

显得懒惰所以不要忘记你的

小句号逗号分号所有

不重复的 相同的

词汇 下一个提示是不要重复相同的

词汇 不要重复她说的相同的

词汇 重复

同一个句子但不要重复相同的

词汇 如果你

像形容词一样使用特定的形容词

在一个句子中，不要

在其他句子中使用相同的形容词，比如

尝试使用不同的形容词来

描述你的观点，如果你总是

使用完全相同的词来描述

你的观点，例如我

想写关于

蛋糕的事情 我想写一篇关于蛋糕的文章

，我只想说这个蛋糕很好

吃这个蛋糕很好吃我

喜欢这个蛋糕，因为它很好吃，

这很好吃

，读者

每句话都读同一个词很无聊，或者

还有你 '

如果我只是用美味这个词

来描述一个蛋糕，

那么实际上并没有

太多交流 rse

这次是关于美味蛋糕的一个非常简单的观点

，但是使用

各种不同的形容词来

支持你的论点，用不同词汇的陈述来支持你的论点，

所以

不要总是

说同一个词来描述某事

尝试使用很多不同的

词汇 多想一下不同的

形容词，如果这

对你有困难，你可以使用有一个工具，你

可以

使用英语单词，因为它是

同义词词典，所以你们中的许多人都知道什么是

字典，是一本书或

检查一个词的含义的资源 词，但您

也可以将所谓的词库与词库一起

使用，您可以搜索

与其他词具有相同或相似

含义的同义词，所以如果我寻找

像美味这样的词，我可能会得到

让我们看看

美味可能的一些同义词 be yummy sweet good um

delectable 例如

，

如果你发现你

在每个句子中都使用同一个词，你可以使用一系列其他词尝试找到

一个不同的词，你可以使用同义词库

来帮助你做到这一点，所以避免

在每个句子中使用相同的词或避免

使用这个重复的词汇词

避免使用very and really

OK 下一个技巧是避免使用

very and really by this 我的意思

不是说回到我的蛋糕

例子，蛋糕非常好吃，

蛋糕真的很好吃，

真的是有点懒惰的话当然

它们非常非常有用，当我们随便说话时它们非常有用

当我们

快速思考但如果你正在写作

并且你有时间思考

你在写什么而不是使用一个常见的

词，

比如美味，只是

非常喜欢这个蛋糕很美味，

还有什么不同的词 意味着非常

美味，所以我可以

用一个不同的词代替非常美味，比如

美味，例如这个蛋糕很

美味 美味的意思是非常

美味，它只有一个词，所以

如果你可以做到这

一点 hat 与very

或really的意思相同，加上另一个词，它

会提高你的词汇量，你

会减少句子中的词数，

所以如果我说这个蛋糕

很美味或者我说这个蛋糕很

美味 美味的

含义比非常美味的含义要强得多，

因此避免使用非常

和真的可以显着提高您的

演讲水平，因此请尝试

使用过渡词和

短语 下一个技巧是使用过渡词

和短语 使用过渡词和

短语 所以过渡词是

我们用来从

一个想法转移到下一个想法的单词和短语所以

如果我想

介绍我的美味蛋糕然后我

想继续描述

销售该蛋糕的商店，请继续我的蛋糕示例 cake 我可能会使用

过渡短语或某种

序列短语来帮助我做到这一点，所以如果

在第 a 段中我正在谈论我的

美味蛋糕以及我有多喜欢

它以及巧克力口味和 th

令人惊叹的糖霜我可以使用一个

过渡短语，

如果你有兴趣，你可以

在 abc 商店购买这个蛋糕，所以在

这种情况下，我的过渡短语

是一个非常随意的过渡短语，

具体取决于 你正在写的东西如果你正在

写一篇学术论文，你可以使用不同的过渡

短语

，例如，

当你想添加信息时，你可以

说另外，此外，

如果你想添加信息，你也可以使用 plus

一个你可以使用的，所以当你想

添加信息时，有一些

过渡短语或一些方法可以提供

更多信息

来描述一个序列，你可以接下来说，

然后根据你的序列，你可以使用你的

词，比如第一第二第三第四

可以

随后或

随后说，因此请考虑

您要介绍的点之间的关系

考虑所有这些

不同的关系您想要什么

把这些想法联系起来，所以不要

只列出你的观点，而是

试着思考如何自然地连接这些

观点，

这样取决于你在写什么，你使用的

词会改变，这很好，

但只要想想你喜欢的方式

您的读者了解您的

信息并相应地选择过渡词

和短语

组织您的写作介绍正文

结论

好吧下一个是关于组织的提示，

所以下一个提示是

组织您的论文或将您的写作组织

成介绍正文和结论

所以这些 是

一篇学术论文或一篇论文的三个基本要素 或者

一篇文章 引言就像它

听起来的那样 介绍要点

你要谈什么

你的观点是什么 你的论点 我们

在引言中介绍

下一部分是正文

在你的介绍中介绍这

是你进入细节的地方，

所以论文的正文通常

是论文的最长部分或论文的

最长部分，所以

正文部分有很多信息，

最后是结论

论文的总结或

在结论中完成论文 您

将从论文正文中总结您的观点，

并且您应该将这些

观点与您在

论文介绍中介绍的项目联系起来，因此所有

这些元素这三个元素

应该连接在一起 所以如果你

发现很难组织

你的想法，或者你不知道如何

处理你的论文或这个项目

甚至是你正在写的一封电子邮件，你可以

尝试将它分成

三类介绍正文结论

所以介绍 想法解释想法总结

想法这对写作很有帮助

避免使用第二人称

好的下一个提示是避免使用

第二人称第二人称 rson 这

将需要一点解释，所以在

英语写作中，我们有三种

可以写作的方式，我们可以用

第一人称写作，这意味着例如我

去商店我想买

东西我遇到了一个朋友所以第一人称

我是分享故事的

人，以第二人称分享信息，

除了非常随意的写作风格外，

这实际上很少见

很少见，我们在儿童读物中看到这一点

，就像我在网上的非正式文章中所说的那样，

第三人称风格写作使用他

她和人物名字，比如他去

了商店，她打电话给她妈妈，他们

需要看医生，所以有

这些 三种类型的英语写作，

所以第一人称第二人称

第三人称通常当你在

写一篇学术论文时，如果你正在写一些东西，

你会使用第一人称或第三人称

来做到这一点

正式的东西你可能不应该使用

第二人称有时你会看到呃

就像一个描述实验的人

，例如你应该将

物品浸入水中或者你应该在

350 度的温度下烘烤

给出

说明，例如，如果你

在食谱中发现它很好，这听起来

有点随意，非常非正式，不是

那么重要，但是如果你发现

你在学术论文中使用你，那

听起来有点太随意太非正式了

所以请避免使用第二人称，所以

提醒第二人称是

句子的主语是你，所以

听起来你有点在命令

别人命令读者或

给读者建议或告诉

读者该怎么做 听起来很奇怪，所以

在你的写作中避免使用第二人称

考虑你正在使用的时态

下一个技巧是考虑

你正在使用的时态考虑你正在使用的时态

所以我只是要谈谈 这里大约有

两个时态真的 uh 现在时

和过去时

看到我的一个朋友，

她在买牛奶，例如，如果我

使用现在时并且我使用现在

进行时，这听起来像

听者，或者如果它是书面的

在那一刻体验故事所以如果你想

在你的写作中创造一些紧张如果你

想创造一些兴奋你可以

使用现在时及其相关

时态来提高能量

水平如果你使用过去时但是你

可能 创建更多报告的细微差别

，例如，当您观看晚间

新闻或阅读报纸时，

您可能会发现它是用过去时写的，

它只是报告

发生的信息，所以很简单 le 过去时

使用过去时，其他相关

时态使用过去时，所以当

你写作时，考虑你

想让读者感受什么，或者你

想让读者体验什么，你是在

写报告，也许你应该只是 使用过去

时你是在写一般

事实

吗，那么如果你在写一般

事实，你可能应该使用现在

时，但是如果你想创造一个像小说一样的

故事，并且你希望

你的读者体验故事

和感觉

对你的故事充满热情或精力充沛 嗯，现在时态和

连续时态 嗯，现在时

会是一个更好的选择，所以只要

想想你在写作中使用的时态

考虑适当的

词汇 下一个技巧是考虑适当的

词汇 考虑适当的

词汇 所以取决于 关于你写的东西的类型，

有些

词很好用，有些

词不太好用，如果你在

写学术 例如 c 论文

不要使用随意的词 不要

在论文中使用诅咒词 不要使用

任何可以解释或可以

理解为非正式的东西 如果你正在写

一些非常随意的东西 另一方面

它可以使用 随意的词

非正式的有点滑稽

是可以的，如果你确实使用

非正式的词或非常礼貌的词，这可能听起来很奇怪，

所以根据你所写的内容考虑使用适当的词汇类型

学习使用参考

好的，最后一个技巧可能是最

困难的技巧 最后一个技巧是学习

使用参考文献 学习使用参考文献

如果您正在

撰写学术论文，或者您正在

写一些

您将要发表在

期刊之类的东西，或者可能 即使是使用参考文献的杂志也

意味着您正在使用

参考文献阅读参考文献并

撰写有关它们的内容，并

在您的写作中包括所谓的引文，这样

您就可以使用某人的某些

东西 其他人已经写过将它放在

引号中，这可能取决于

您选择引用它的方式，然后

在文档末尾添加参考列表

以显示

您引用了哪些文档哪些

文档对您提出论点很重要，

所以如果您 可以

在你的写作中使用参考文献来支持

你的论点它可以是一个非常好的

工具，所以如果你

有一个观点，你

想写一篇文章，即使是在

互联网上，它也可以非常

有助于支持你的论点 带有

指向其他

参考资料的链接 带有指向

有关您意见的其他信息的链接 所以是的，

我是最重要的，它确实最

关注学术界的学者，

但是如果您甚至在为互联网写作，

学习如何正确参考

学习如何包括他人

在您的工作中正常工作可能

非常有价值，因此请尝试一下，

这是一个很大的话题，这是一个困难的话题，

但是学习如何使用参考文献

确实可以帮助您 改进你的写作

大家好欢迎回来问艾丽西亚

你问我问题的每周系列

，我回答他们也许

本周的第一个问题来自 hardik

patel 嗨 heartick heartick 说我怎样才能

提高我的拼写嗯是的这是一个

重要的问题，我们 做了一个

关于这个话题的直播，所以我会快速

介绍我们在直播中谈到的关键点

，希望它们

可以帮助你作为一个起点，

所以首先

要阅读的是提高你的拼写能力的最重要的事情

并确保您阅读的内容经过

适当编辑并准备妥当，因此

这意味着我不推荐例如

社交媒体帖子，因为并非每个人

都在编写之前彻底准备好所有

内容，没有经过

检查，

在发布之前没有经过校对 所以我会推荐

书籍、杂志和报纸，

那些经过适当

编辑和适当检查的东西，这很

重要，因为你 '不只是

听单词你实际上

正在阅读单词你正在阅读

页面上的单词所以你会

熟悉单词应该如何

拼写而不是听起来如何

你可以做的其他事情 是

单词谜题 单词谜题

在直播中很有趣 我谈到了

一些叫做

填字游戏的

东西 您需要将您的知识

与拼写知识结合起来，

像拼图的最终版本一样进行创作，

所以填字游戏真的很有趣，

您可以找到初学者级别的填字

游戏来尝试，以便您在

学习更多英语和学习更多内容时进行练习

关于其他主题，您也可以

提高填字游戏的难度，

这可能是一种有趣的方式

，您可以做的另一件事是

根据您在哪里参加拼写比赛 你

活着，你可能在

你的城市或你的国家有一个拼写比赛，

我们有一个叫做拼写比赛的东西，

它是

为孩子们准备的

如果您在美国，可以寻找

拼写比赛，或者您所在的国家/地区可能有类似的拼写比赛，

因此这些是练习拼写的好方法，

因为这是您

与其他人竞争正确拼写

单词的比赛，这样可以

如果您是学生，请以一种有趣的方式做事 如果您

是年轻人

，无论您的年龄如何，您都可以做的另一件事

是观看带字幕的英文媒体，

所以就像我

在阅读点中提到的那样，请确保

字幕正确 如果

有人喜欢创建

可能不完美的字幕，或者

它们是由非母语人士准备的，

那么可能会有一些错误，

所以如果你可以尝试找到像

电影甚至我们的视频这样的媒体 例如，

有时他们有字幕，您可以

尝试打开字幕观看，

这样您就可以理解

单词的拼写，

这是另一种有趣的学习方式，我认为

真的，尽管我认为阅读是

最好的事情 你能做到这是

我小时候喜欢做的事情

我小时候参加了拼字比赛，我认为阅读

真的帮助我理解了正确

的拼写方法，并且喜欢学习

如何识别新单词 在未来，所以请

阅读我认为这是你能做的最好的事情

谢谢你的问题，

祝你的拼写好运让我们去

下一个问题下一个问题 cabs

fram 或 aslina hi noor noor 说你好

alicia 我的问题是有什么

区别 在我正在寻找

和我一直在寻找之间我们使用我正在

寻找当我们现在正在寻找某物时

在这一刻

我们正在寻找某物，

例如在百货公司，您

可以 说我在找鞋子 我在

找洗手间 那

是你现在正在做的事情 你现在正在做某事

另一方面我一直在

寻找的东西是用来做某事的

'正在寻找它，但

搜索已经持续了很长时间

，例如，我一直在寻找

新公寓四个月，或者

我一直在寻找新工作

，如果您正在

寻找 你现在

可以使用的东西我正在寻找如果它

是你一直在

寻找的东西很长一段

时间你可以使用我一直在寻找我

希望对你有帮助谢谢

所有的问题 好吧，让我们继续我们的

下一个问题下一个问题来自

lyan hi再一次狮子狮子说嗨艾丽西亚我

希望你做得很好谢谢你我

有两个问题什么是分号规则我什么

时候应该避免它们

有一个和两个

在某些语言中，多项选择

测试称为 ame rican test

所以美式考试真的主要是

多项

选择题吗

那是由两个

独立的子句

组成的，所以句子有两个子句，一个

独立的子句是一个可以独立的句子，

就像我们不需要任何

其他词来解释

这个独立的子句一样，所以当我们

将这两个连接起来时 一个复合句，

我们可以使用分号来连接

两者，就像这里一样，让我们看

一些例子独立从句是一个

语法正确的从句，

不需要其他词，

分号用于分隔两个

从句，就像句号一样

当想法密切相关时，我们会这样做第二个

用途是当您将列表中的项目分开时，

这可能会很棘手，但是

我们这样做的原因是因为当您

制作包含大量

复杂信息的列表时，它们包括

逗号，例如，可能

很难理解列表中的项目在哪里

结束或开始，所以我们使用分号来

帮助读者理解要点 在一个

列表中，这是一个例子，这是一个很长的

列表，所以我要读它

市民要求一个新的公园，里面

有一个游泳池 改进的道路

人行道和红绿灯以及更清洁的

学校

我们有一些假期

远足骑自行车的计划和 在我们的

露营地附近游泳，一边烧烤一边欣赏

烟花，因此您可以在这些列表中看到

实际上所有项目

之间都有一个分号，向我们

显示这是一个项目，所以我们这样做是因为

如果我们在列表的其他部分有逗号 使用逗号分隔

列表中的项目我们可能会使

读者感到困惑，以便表明每个项目显然是

一个项目，我们使用分号来做到

这一点并不常见，

因为没有那么多 您

需要以这种方式使用分号的情况，但

以防万一这是第二次使用，在

大多数情况下，我们只使用第一个，您

不需要避免使用分号，

这是一种非常方便的方式来标点

您的句子，所以您 不必

避免它，您可以使用它，

只需记住您需要使用它来

分隔独立子句，就像我们

在第一次使用时谈到的

那样，第二点非常

有趣，我不知道测试

被称为美国测试

有趣的是，

我们确实有很多多项选择

风格的测试，尤其是在

高中和大学水平，

例如像 um 和 sats 这样的官方测试

，但是我们也有其他

风格的测试，所以我们已经填写

了空白 我在这个频道上用了很多

白板视频

我们也有像论文测试或

论文考试，学生写

论文

我们也有免费答案，所以

学生必须想出

答案 只是从他们自己的想法或使用

他们自己的技能，我们在数学课上看到了很多，

所以是的，

有很多多项选择题测试，但

并不意味着所有测试都是多项

选择题，只是它很常见，所以希望

有帮助 一些差异

取决于情况，但一般来说，

让我们看一下

您提供的前四个示例，我们可以

以相同的方式使用所有这些副词

让我们看一些示例，

我把吹风机放在水槽下面

我把头发放在 水槽

下面的吹风机

我把吹风机放在水槽下面

他

在美式英语中最常用的声音

可能是最正式的，也可能是

最老式的，

因此您可以按照

它们所指的被定位在

其他东西下面或类似下面的相同方式使用它们，所以那里并

没有太大的区别 我

想我们只是在最下面使用了

这个词，但是这是一个名词

，指的是最低的部分，或者像

某物的下面让我们看

一些例子

，我的包底部有污垢，他切开了南瓜的底部，

所以 这些指的

是某物的底部或最低点，

所以它是一个实际名词而不是

副词，那么这个列表中的最后一个词

是 down 所以 down 也是一个副词，但是

down 指的是运动，所以

我们在实际谈论时使用 down

某种运动，例如

把手放下或走下楼梯，

他坐在椅子上，所以我们正在使用

某种运动，

从上层到下层发生了一些事情

r level

那里发生了运动，所以我们用 down

来表示运动 我们谈论的前四个词

是用来

谈论位置而不是运动

down 用来谈论运动 bottom

用来谈论某物上的一个地方

所以我希望 这对你有帮助 谢谢你的

问题 好的，这就是我这周的所有内容，

谢谢你一如既往

地发送你的好问题，

记住你可以在englishclass101.com上把它们发给我

问连字符艾丽西亚如果你喜欢这个视频，

请不要忘记 给它一个

英语学习资源非常感谢您

观看本周的节目，我

下周再见，大家好，

欢迎回来询问艾丽西亚

你问我问题，我回答的每周系列，

也许这周的第一个问题

实际上是一对问题，我

从 zohair 那里得到一个问题，你好，艾丽西亚

你好吗 你如何提高我的

写作技巧和一个来自 zirak xerox 的问题

说我如何提高我的写作

技巧所以我想一起回答这两个

问题

所以简单的答案是多写所以如果

你在开始

写作练习时遇到问题 你可以

尝试做的就是复制，所以如果有一个

博客，一本杂志，

一本你喜欢阅读的书，如果有什么

对你来说很突出的

东西，你认为非常好的

或非常有趣的东西，你可以通过复制开始你的

写作练习

你发现你读过的东西，所以如果

你找到了，例如，如果你找到了

一个你真正喜欢的博主，而且你很

容易阅读，你可以

从复制该博客的行开始，当我

说复制时，我的意思是手写，就像

用笔和纸试着用手写这些东西

，这样你就可以练习

自己造一个句子，这

对你开始写作练习来说是一个非常好的方法，

然后当你

变得更舒服的时候 ortable 你可以尝试

使用你自己的单词和你自己的

词汇来让你自己的

句子与你

最喜欢的作家的风格相同，所以我会说一个

开始写作的好方法，一个

改进你的写作的好方法，让它

更自然 是从模仿

别人开始这只是一个

练习的问题所以继续练习继续写作

继续创造我希望这对你有帮助

好吧让我们继续你的

下一个问题本周的下一个问题来自wong

ang hai fuang fuang says how do i 用

英语写一个好的段落 好的 用英语写一个好的段落

有一个三步过程

你

可以把你的段落分成三个

部分 你可以首先想到一个

引言 第二个正文 第三个

结论

所以在引言中 你的段落你的

段落的开头你

应该分享你将

在段落中谈论的想法，

这样就像你的第一句话

你要向你的读者解释什么

您将在第二部分的本段中分享什么您的段落

正文

您应该提供详细信息如果

您正在解释数据您可以

在该部分中输入数字例如如果

您给出类似的引号如果您

给出 支持信息或

支持证据 你可以

在你的段落的正文部分包括

你的详细信息 你也可以

在段落的这一部分包括你的意见

所以你认为

第三你的结论 结论

部分应该总结你的主要想法 所以

什么 您是否希望读者

从本段中记住它，也许

它如何与您的下一段联系起来，所以

试着考虑用这个三步过程来写段落，

你

介绍一些你提供细节的东西，然后

你得出结论，所以考虑一下

你的 是的，但是

在你写论文的时候也要考虑一下，

你应该有一个介绍，一个

正文和一个结论，所以我

希望这个 帮助你写

段落 更小的文章

和写论文或散文 更大

的文章 非常感谢

这个问题 好的 让我们继续

你的下一个问题 下一个问题

来自 ahmed mohammed 嗨 ahmed ahmed 说

你好 alicia 你好吗 为什么 是

当我在 youtube 上看你或看任何其他

英语老师时，我

很容易理解他们，但是当我看

电视上的任何节目（如电影和新闻）时，我

发现很难理解我

应该怎么做才能理解我

听的任何东西，

所以你的第一个 问题为什么你能

理解 youtube 上的老师 这

是很多人的常见问题

实际上你能

理解 youtube 上的老师或者

你教室里的老师的原因是因为

我们正在做所谓的给我们的

语言评分所以给你的语言评分意味着

您选择使用适合学习者的词汇单词

和语法点，

这意味着我们

选择我们的单词并且我们ch 改变我们说话的方式

来帮助学习者

理解我们，这意味着我们

说得慢一点 我们说话的

发音非常清晰 我们说话

的语法水平我们认为我们的

学生可能能够

理解并且我们 选择使用

我们认为

可能对学习者来说也很容易理解的词汇，

所以当你在看 youtube 老师时

，很多 youtube 老师，包括我们

在这个频道上，我们正在考虑

如何帮助

中等水平的人，比如 中等水平，

所以我选择语法和词汇

单词以及我说话的

方式试图帮助人们进入

中级到高级中级

语言领域，这就是为什么

像 youtube 老师之间似乎存在如此大的差距

和普通电影和

新闻，当你看电影和

新闻时，那些人没有给他们的语言评分，

所以他们不知道

他们没有考虑的词汇选择

他们使用的语法水平

他们经常说，所以老师说话的方式

是一种

帮助学习者适应或

习惯母语水平的方式

，学习者很难掌握所有

的小细节 母语水平的演讲，

所以我们放慢速度，我们

以不同的方式呈现它以帮助学习者，所以当

你

对在 youtube 上像我一样教书的人感到满意时，你可以

在更高的难度级别上寻找其他东西，

所以也许这意味着

你 在 youtube 上找到一个说英语的视频博客，

或者您开始寻找

与您的爱好相关但使用英语的其他主题或其他内容，

问题来自yoshitaka

horikoshi你好yoshitaka yoshitaka说你好艾丽西亚我

每天都看视频英语问候很容易 理解和

有趣但是在视频中你说我在哪里

你是什么意思我在哪里啊

这是我在哪里这是一个常见的

表达方式，这意味着我在我的

笔记中的位置所以当你阅读某些东西

或当你 进行演示时

，您会迷失在细节中，

例如您有一些笔记，某种

类似于您用来

进行演示的参考材料，而您想念

自己的地方，您忘记了自己的地方，您可以

说出我的意思在哪里

笔记是我，所以我们在展示材料时经常使用它

，我们需要

重新开始，所以在这种情况下，如果我正在

教课

，我喜欢错过我的位置，如果我忘记了

我在笔记中的位置，我 好吧，我可能

说我在演讲中的什么时候是什么意思，

所以

如果可能像学生有

问题并且我回答了问题

问题 好吧 让我们继续你的

下一个问题 下一个问题来自

iman 你好 我继续 我说 嗨，

艾丽西娅，叠牌是什么意思啊

，叠牌意味着

在某种事件之前的情况之前准备

好优势，以便准备好优势，

以便一个人或像一个组织一样

获胜，所以这个表达首先来自纸牌

游戏，我们看到 a deck so to stack

the deck the deck 指的是一副

纸牌，这是我们用来表示一整套纸牌的词汇。

甲板或圣 ack the deck as in

this expression 这意味着我们正在

以一种小心翼翼、有条理的方式放置卡片，

以便在某种情况下为某人创造优势，

因此堆叠牌组意味着

在情况发生之前你准备好所有

的部分，以便为一个人创造胜利

人或可能为

另一个人造成损失 so to stack the deck

意味着为他人创造优势或

劣势 所以一些

例句

so he will lost

我们用对抗某人来指代

创造一个人

失去某些东西的情况所以我们堆叠牌组

只是意味着我们创造了不公平的

优势或者我们

在这种情况之前创造了优势所以我希望这

有助于你理解这个表达

非常感谢您观看本周的

Ask alicia 节目，我

下周再见，再见，

欢迎回到每周单词 我的名字是

alicia，本周我们将

讨论常见的拼写错误的单词 i '

我对此感到兴奋，因为我喜欢

捕捉拼写错误相信

uh to believe something 只是意味着

在否定中接受某事为真或

假 您在记住

单词的正确拼写方式时遇到了困难

相信认为单词 lie 位于单词

的中间，

如果您一直在注意的话，这有点违反直觉

每周单词系列 呃，

如果你想说服朋友

做一些你可能会说的事情，请

相信我，这将是有史以来最好的

聚会，你必须来，好吧，

下一个很多，这通常是

拼写错误，因为人们喜欢把

uh 和 lot 加在一起

实际上是两个独立的词 ah and lot

a lot 只是表示大量的

东西或大量的东西

很多东西在一个句子中你

可能会说我有很多

爱好我喜欢滑雪单板滑雪 和

白水漂流，所以把它们

分开拼写不要把它们放在一起

哦，下一个，在那里，那里

的英语学生往往比以英语

为母语的人更擅长拼写这些单词

，我发现

那里的第一个很有趣

指一个地方，就像他

住在那里，书就在那儿，

而不是你现在所在的地方。他们的

第二种形式

是他们的所有格形式，

因为那是他们的房子 t's their

dog 属于其他

一群人的东西，他们的最后一个形式是

他们的撇号是指

对另一群

人的平等，因为他们是学生，他们

是老师，这

是他们的缩写形式，他们是下一个词

感激感激感激感激的意思

只是表示你

很感激

你可能会说的句子哦我很感激我的

老师在课后花时间

向我解释这个概念

感激通常是拼写错误因为

这个格栅

听起来就像这个词 伟大的

伟大

但实际上那个伟大的

好意思不是这个词的正确拼写

我们用伟大的代替嗯

这个伟大的拼写也用作

动词作为整合厨房里的东西

嗯

我不知道这是否有任何关系

这个或不是可能不是它的花格

下一个是receive receive to receive

something as动词的意思是um to be given

something or to get something receive

ca n 有点棘手，因为 i

和 ea 在 e 之前的 i

除了在 c 之后的规则适用的地方

它不是 100 条真正的规则嗯，但

通常在字母 c 之后，

如果字母 e 和我需要

在字母 ci 之后遵循它 通常

不是第一个来的字母 通常它

是第一个字母，所以它应该是

ceive receive 而不是 recycle 或

类似的东西 uh in a sample

sentence you may say uh i received a

gift from my friend on my birthday i was

really 很高兴欢迎回到

每周的单词我的名字是 alicia 今天

我们要谈论带有

奇怪无声字母的单词我喜欢这个标题

但我们不说 ps 只是

以声音开头 in a sentence you

may say the pterodactyl is my 最喜爱的

恐龙 下一个词是 抵押贷款啊，我的

学生把这个词搞砸了，

就像上周在课堂上抵押贷款一样

，但我们不会说它听起来

像抵押贷款，就像根本没有

抵押贷款是你每个月在你的房子上支付的款项

if you have had

to take a loan from a bank in a sentence

我的抵押贷款付款是非常合理的

发音 i'll isle with a in front

is the space of the uh line of seats on

a aircraft or the space

between货架和

超市 在

飞机上

因为购物车可能会

撞到你 下一个词是 faux fo

当它在纸上拼写时末尾有一个 x

但我们不说伙计

我们不说我们说 fo fo 表示

假冒的意思是不真实的东西

很常见的是，你会

在人造毛皮方面听到这个 因为我更喜欢穿

人造毛皮，因为我不相信我们

应该杀死动物，下一个

词是哮喘，

我们只是在谈论我是如何患有

哮喘哮喘的，呃，拼写很奇怪，

里面有一个 th，但我们没有

说 th 听起来像 asma 哮喘

哮喘是一种

呼吸系统疾病 你可能患有

哮喘 这很常见，你可能

会呼吸困难
