everybody welcome back I'm joined 13 00:00:26.220 --> 00:00:28.800 today again in the studio by Michael hey 14 00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:30.420 everybody and today we're going to be 15 00:00:30.420 --> 00:00:32.220 talking about our favorite English that 16 00:00:32.220 --> 00:00:33.899 we use without even thinking about it so 17 00:00:33.899 --> 00:00:36.420 these are things that we just say we say 18 00:00:36.420 --> 00:00:38.460 just so often and they come really 19 00:00:38.460 --> 00:00:39.960 really naturally to us so that might be 20 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:41.399 kind of helpful for you to hear about 21 00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:42.800 some of the things that we like to say 22 00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:46.020 uh so I guess I'll start us off for this 23 00:00:46.020 --> 00:00:47.879 one go ahead uh the first one that I've 24 00:00:47.879 --> 00:00:49.200 picked I think I think I picked really 25 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:50.700 simple phrases this time around the 26 00:00:50.700 --> 00:00:52.140 first one that I've chosen is the phrase 27 00:00:52.140 --> 00:00:55.020 I know I know I like to use this to 28 00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:56.879 agree with my friends a lot so if my 29 00:00:56.879 --> 00:00:58.379 friend gives me some some kind of 30 00:00:58.379 --> 00:01:02.100 interesting information I go I know or I 31 00:01:02.100 --> 00:01:04.140 know or something something just to show 32 00:01:04.140 --> 00:01:05.819 that I'm listening to them and that I 33 00:01:05.819 --> 00:01:07.799 agree it doesn't necessarily mean that 34 00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:10.560 I'm I'm already I don't know like like 35 00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:11.938 I've learned the information or 36 00:01:11.938 --> 00:01:13.560 something like that it's it's an 37 00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:15.360 agreement phrase that I like to use with 38 00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:16.740 my friends 39 00:01:16.740 --> 00:01:18.659 um is this something that yeah yeah yeah 40 00:01:18.659 --> 00:01:20.280 that's that's funny you said that 41 00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:21.959 because before you explain like the tone 42 00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:24.720 and gave an example of how you say it I 43 00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:26.640 thought of it on the opposite side to me 44 00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:29.340 it sounded like like a kid who's like I 45 00:01:29.340 --> 00:01:31.140 know I know Mom you know giving them 46 00:01:31.140 --> 00:01:32.340 like you need to do this and this and 47 00:01:32.340 --> 00:01:34.680 this I know I know you know I'm trying 48 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:36.600 to think demin I mean these These are 49 00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:37.860 gender roles you can say whatever you 50 00:01:37.860 --> 00:01:39.959 want but I'm trying to think 51 00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.240 I I know yeah 52 00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:43.860 um I don't know if I've ever said it 53 00:01:43.860 --> 00:01:45.900 like that really sorry oh maybe it is a 54 00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:47.040 gender thing maybe it's more common 55 00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:48.780 among women than it is among them but I 56 00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:50.100 feel like it maybe it's just in a movie 57 00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:51.540 or maybe it's because of where I'm from 58 00:01:51.540 --> 00:01:53.399 that people will say like if you watch 59 00:01:53.399 --> 00:01:55.799 the last video for example dude I know 60 00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:58.079 that kind of thing yeah but that your 61 00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:00.780 point about kids saying that is so funny 62 00:02:00.780 --> 00:02:03.780 like when when you get in trouble I know 63 00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:06.360 I know saying it like that it has a 64 00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:07.740 different meaning it's another exercise 65 00:02:07.740 --> 00:02:09.840 and intonation maybe this word I know 66 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.000 but this phrase rather okay cool uh so 67 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:13.680 there's one what's your what's your 68 00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:16.919 first one so my first word is not really 69 00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:18.720 a word it's spelled a couple different 70 00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:21.680 ways is 71 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:24.599 so this is something I I didn't realize 72 00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.419 that I I do a lot or say a lot or 73 00:02:27.419 --> 00:02:30.419 whatever but it's um 74 00:02:30.419 --> 00:02:33.560 it's a sound that English speakers make 75 00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:37.800 that shows disapproval so I don't know 76 00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:39.720 like okay for example the kid the kid 77 00:02:39.720 --> 00:02:41.160 who's talking to a parent and then the 78 00:02:41.160 --> 00:02:42.419 parent says you know you need to do your 79 00:02:42.419 --> 00:02:45.060 homework I know I know but no seriously 80 00:02:45.060 --> 00:02:47.040 you need to get into a good girl mom 81 00:02:47.040 --> 00:02:48.959 whatever yeah so it may be the same as 82 00:02:48.959 --> 00:02:50.220 like whatever 83 00:02:50.220 --> 00:02:52.319 yep she's good there are a lot of 84 00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.720 variations on Whatever Whenever you 85 00:02:54.720 --> 00:02:55.860 don't want to hear what the other person 86 00:02:55.860 --> 00:02:58.139 is saying you can use 87 00:02:58.139 --> 00:02:59.879 or I've seen another one that I like to 88 00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:03.060 use pffft 89 00:03:04.940 --> 00:03:07.319 that one's harder to say though it's not 90 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.959 so natural I think she's good any any 91 00:03:09.959 --> 00:03:11.159 sort of 92 00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.700 PP kind of sound just any sort of just 93 00:03:14.700 --> 00:03:16.680 nonsensical phrase said like that means 94 00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:17.580 I don't want to listen to what you're 95 00:03:17.580 --> 00:03:19.919 saying yeah that's a great one that's a 96 00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.280 great one I use that all the time too oh 97 00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:25.019 I wish I wish I didn't use it as much as 98 00:03:25.019 --> 00:03:27.860 I did but so 99 00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:31.200 all right uh well onward I guess my next 100 00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:32.639 word is anyway 101 00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:36.180 I like to use to transition between two 102 00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:38.459 things to transition between ideas I 103 00:03:38.459 --> 00:03:40.319 also like to use it when I'm I've been 104 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:42.239 talking for way too long and I need to 105 00:03:42.239 --> 00:03:43.620 make an exit from the conversation 106 00:03:43.620 --> 00:03:46.379 usually I use anyway with kind of a dot 107 00:03:46.379 --> 00:03:49.319 dot dot at the end like anyway and I 108 00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:50.519 don't finish anything I don't finish 109 00:03:50.519 --> 00:03:52.560 saying anything after that it's just 110 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.360 sort of it's my just 111 00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:57.060 societal out of it the conversation yeah 112 00:03:57.060 --> 00:03:58.860 anyway 113 00:03:58.860 --> 00:04:01.620 um anyway so I use this word a lot 114 00:04:01.620 --> 00:04:03.060 actually I'm glad you said that um 115 00:04:03.060 --> 00:04:04.680 actually some of my students asked me 116 00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:05.760 they said 117 00:04:05.760 --> 00:04:07.739 you know what are some good 118 00:04:07.739 --> 00:04:10.739 um words that connect two ideas or 119 00:04:10.739 --> 00:04:12.480 something like that like a beginning you 120 00:04:12.480 --> 00:04:14.640 know like first second these kinds of 121 00:04:14.640 --> 00:04:16.680 words and I noticed and I never noticed 122 00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:18.299 this before it actually relates to this 123 00:04:18.299 --> 00:04:19.919 question 124 00:04:19.919 --> 00:04:22.440 um that a lot of the things that you 125 00:04:22.440 --> 00:04:24.839 look up that are transition words we 126 00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.180 don't ever use in speech it doesn't 127 00:04:27.180 --> 00:04:28.919 sound natural but you have to use 128 00:04:28.919 --> 00:04:30.720 synonyms you have to switch it up if 129 00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.699 you're writing yeah speaking I say 130 00:04:32.699 --> 00:04:35.580 anyway almost every other sentence maybe 131 00:04:35.580 --> 00:04:37.380 I do it too much well not that much but 132 00:04:37.380 --> 00:04:39.240 a lot a lot I realize that even typing 133 00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:42.060 even business emails I say it all of the 134 00:04:42.060 --> 00:04:44.820 time like it's kind of like well yeah 135 00:04:44.820 --> 00:04:47.400 anyway yeah maybe because I go on 136 00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:49.320 tangents a lot so for me I use it not 137 00:04:49.320 --> 00:04:51.779 not as much as the Anyway dot dot I 138 00:04:51.779 --> 00:04:53.820 usually do the anyway back to what I was 139 00:04:53.820 --> 00:04:56.339 saying blah blah blah blah yeah yeah so 140 00:04:56.339 --> 00:04:57.600 that's a good point about it being used 141 00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.520 for transitions so a lot of my students 142 00:04:59.520 --> 00:05:00.900 are the same way they'll pick like a 143 00:05:00.900 --> 00:05:02.639 really really formal almost businessy 144 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.259 term to use to transition in their 145 00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:05.520 speech and it doesn't really sound so 146 00:05:05.520 --> 00:05:07.139 natural but something like anywhere like 147 00:05:07.139 --> 00:05:09.660 you said well or so it's much better to 148 00:05:09.660 --> 00:05:11.820 use in conversation I think cool okay 149 00:05:11.820 --> 00:05:14.639 anyway anyway 150 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:16.100 um 151 00:05:16.100 --> 00:05:18.960 seriously so seriously this is another 152 00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:20.940 one always the the intonation this is 153 00:05:20.940 --> 00:05:22.740 this is our our thing is intonation I 154 00:05:22.740 --> 00:05:24.000 guess but 155 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.460 um seriously can be said in a lot of 156 00:05:26.460 --> 00:05:27.479 different ways 157 00:05:27.479 --> 00:05:30.479 um For Me Maybe the most common is the 158 00:05:30.479 --> 00:05:32.400 same as when you say really just kind of 159 00:05:32.400 --> 00:05:34.500 like seriously like did that actually 160 00:05:34.500 --> 00:05:36.900 happen no way really yeah anytime you 161 00:05:36.900 --> 00:05:39.720 anytime you go up like that it's just 162 00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:40.979 it's a rhetorical question you don't 163 00:05:40.979 --> 00:05:42.539 actually want an answer just like wow 164 00:05:42.539 --> 00:05:44.220 same thing as wow 165 00:05:44.220 --> 00:05:45.960 um and then there's also the 166 00:05:45.960 --> 00:05:48.539 when someone does something stupid and 167 00:05:48.539 --> 00:05:50.880 you just look and seriously yeah you 168 00:05:50.880 --> 00:05:52.500 know but that's less common that's you 169 00:05:52.500 --> 00:05:55.320 know kind of uh really 170 00:05:55.320 --> 00:05:58.259 seriously no really I mean I I use it 171 00:05:58.259 --> 00:05:59.940 the way that you just described it to to 172 00:05:59.940 --> 00:06:01.979 just to like if I see I don't know 173 00:06:01.979 --> 00:06:03.660 somebody is walking on the street in 174 00:06:03.660 --> 00:06:05.699 front of me and maybe they stop and they 175 00:06:05.699 --> 00:06:06.839 don't have any consideration for the 176 00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:08.279 people behind them on the street I might 177 00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:10.080 go seriously 178 00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:11.460 yeah you're right you're right you're 179 00:06:11.460 --> 00:06:15.060 right like is this really happening did 180 00:06:15.060 --> 00:06:17.339 you just make this decision I so I maybe 181 00:06:17.339 --> 00:06:19.139 I use it when I'm talking to myself more 182 00:06:19.139 --> 00:06:21.479 not so much I don't necessarily yeah 183 00:06:21.479 --> 00:06:23.220 those are fighting words yeah those are 184 00:06:23.220 --> 00:06:24.779 fighting words so no you're right I 185 00:06:24.779 --> 00:06:27.300 think maybe driving same thing yeah 186 00:06:27.300 --> 00:06:29.460 seriously or 187 00:06:29.460 --> 00:06:33.479 I mean are you are you kidding me well I 188 00:06:33.479 --> 00:06:34.740 don't want to say the bad version of it 189 00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:36.120 but this is what I'm thinking when I'm 190 00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:37.380 driving like are you kidding me 191 00:06:37.380 --> 00:06:39.240 seriously you're right you're right but 192 00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:40.199 it's usually to yourself because 193 00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:42.000 otherwise it's pretty aggressive that's 194 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:43.740 true yeah so don't say it to the other 195 00:06:43.740 --> 00:06:46.319 person but yeah you're right in terms of 196 00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:47.580 when you're talking to your friends and 197 00:06:47.580 --> 00:06:49.139 you want to ask did that really happen 198 00:06:49.139 --> 00:06:52.039 to you seriously yeah it's super useful 199 00:06:52.039 --> 00:06:55.080 okay is it my turn again okay last one 200 00:06:55.080 --> 00:06:57.960 for me uh my last one is when I use all 201 00:06:57.960 --> 00:06:59.699 the time in a number of situations I've 202 00:06:59.699 --> 00:07:01.979 chosen I don't know 203 00:07:01.979 --> 00:07:03.839 um this is great for of course when you 204 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:05.880 don't know the answer to something 205 00:07:05.880 --> 00:07:08.279 um but I think when you don't know the 206 00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:09.660 answer to something like a you know a 207 00:07:09.660 --> 00:07:11.220 math question or whatever it's better to 208 00:07:11.220 --> 00:07:13.560 say I don't know but when you use the 209 00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.020 the contracted Deno form of don't know 210 00:07:16.020 --> 00:07:18.360 it just shows kind of that you're it's 211 00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:20.699 not a serious issue it's not something 212 00:07:20.699 --> 00:07:22.560 you need you're overly concerned with 213 00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.240 you're just I don't know I don't have an 214 00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.639 answer I don't have an idea it's kind of 215 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:28.199 like saying you know what do you think 216 00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.560 or just this is all I've got you know 217 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.380 um so I don't know do you use this 218 00:07:34.380 --> 00:07:36.599 that's how I use it no that's that's a 219 00:07:36.599 --> 00:07:39.000 really good one um the same thing is 220 00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:41.520 anyway I type this a lot I say well I 221 00:07:41.520 --> 00:07:44.039 say IDK which is the acronym for it I 222 00:07:44.039 --> 00:07:46.319 would never say IDK out loud don't say 223 00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.479 IDK that sounds kind of stupid I'm sorry 224 00:07:48.479 --> 00:07:51.539 in my opinion but you say I don't know I 225 00:07:51.539 --> 00:07:52.860 don't know I don't know I say that all 226 00:07:52.860 --> 00:07:55.580 the time because I think it's it's 227 00:07:55.580 --> 00:07:57.840 just a nice way to be humble really 228 00:07:57.840 --> 00:07:59.880 because maybe you do know or you think 229 00:07:59.880 --> 00:08:01.979 you know but it's a nice way to be like 230 00:08:01.979 --> 00:08:04.740 I'm not sure you know what do you think 231 00:08:04.740 --> 00:08:08.099 it's a nice um it's it tones down your 232 00:08:08.099 --> 00:08:09.720 your tone you don't sound as 233 00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:11.340 authoritative as aggressive you say I 234 00:08:11.340 --> 00:08:12.539 don't know what

00:08:20.460 --> 00:08:22.080 if you have an idea about something but 241 00:08:22.080 --> 00:08:23.099 you're not sure how the other person 242 00:08:23.099 --> 00:08:24.539 feels you can just say I don't know what 243 00:08:24.539 --> 00:08:25.919 do you want to do I don't know what do 244 00:08:25.919 --> 00:08:27.060 you want to do 245 00:08:27.060 --> 00:08:28.860 but that's usually the thing

00:20:05.640 takes three minutes in this lesson 490 00:20:05.640 --> 00:20:08.220 you're going to learn some ways to get 491 00:20:08.220 --> 00:20:10.679 in touch with someone after you have met 492 00:20:10.679 --> 00:20:13.559 them once already in a lot of textbooks 493 00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:16.320 you've probably seen the question what's 494 00:20:16.320 --> 00:20:17.880 your phone number 495 00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:20.280 what's your phone number 496 00:20:20.280 --> 00:20:23.520 it's a very useful question but there 497 00:20:23.520 --> 00:20:25.440 are two problems with it 498 00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:28.520 first it can sound a little too direct 499 00:20:28.520 --> 00:20:31.020 especially when talking to members of 500 00:20:31.020 --> 00:20:34.619 the opposite sex and second people use 501 00:20:34.619 --> 00:20:36.900 the phone a lot less these days than 502 00:20:36.900 --> 00:20:40.140 they used to instead they might prefer 503 00:20:40.140 --> 00:20:42.539 to connect by email or on a social 504 00:20:42.539 --> 00:20:44.580 network like Facebook 505 00:20:44.580 --> 00:20:48.359 to start though a simple variation on 506 00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:50.640 what's your phone number that sounds a 507 00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:53.340 little less direct is could I get your 508 00:20:53.340 --> 00:20:54.480 number 509 00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:57.000 could I get your number 510 00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:00.059 we start the sentence with could 511 00:21:00.059 --> 00:21:03.900 which softens the request next say I 512 00:21:03.900 --> 00:21:08.580 then get and finally your number which 513 00:21:08.580 --> 00:21:11.460 is short for your phone number 514 00:21:11.460 --> 00:21:14.760 this question is slightly casual but it 515 00:21:14.760 --> 00:21:17.580 can be used in almost any situation 516 00:21:17.580 --> 00:21:20.880 recently many people prefer to use email 517 00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.419 rather than the phone to communicate 518 00:21:23.419 --> 00:21:26.100 asking someone for his or her email 519 00:21:26.100 --> 00:21:28.919 address is also a little less direct 520 00:21:28.919 --> 00:21:31.679 than asking for their phone number could 521 00:21:31.679 --> 00:21:34.200 I get your email address 522 00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:37.140 could I get your email address 523 00:21:37.140 --> 00:21:40.559 we just took could I get your number and 524 00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:44.640 replaced number with email address it's 525 00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:45.720 that simple 526 00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:48.059 could I get your email address 527 00:21:48.059 --> 00:21:50.400 if someone asks you either of these 528 00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:53.760 questions you can reply by saying sure 529 00:21:53.760 --> 00:21:56.460 my phone number is 530 00:21:56.460 --> 00:22:02.039 sure my phone number is or sure my email 531 00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:03.900 address is 532 00:22:03.900 --> 00:22:09.539 sure my email address is or sure it's 533 00:22:09.539 -->

00:26:06.059 maybe there's an author you're 618 00:26:06.059 --> 00:26:08.880 interested in find something in your 619 00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:11.760 target language in English and try 620 00:26:11.760 --> 00:26:13.980 reading it out loud so don't just read 621 00:26:13.980 --> 00:26:17.100 in your mind but read the words out loud 622 00:26:17.100 --> 00:26:19.140 speak them so that you can get 623 00:26:19.140 --> 00:26:22.140 comfortable pronouncing those words and 624 00:26:22.140 --> 00:26:24.960 you can try reading the same passage or 625 00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:27.359 the same sentence multiple times to make 626 00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:30.000 it smoother so this can be a really good 627 00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:33.419 tip for and it I think it also improves 628 00:26:33.419 --> 00:26:36.779 your natural ability to pick up grammar 629 00:26:36.779 --> 00:26:38.640 too because if you're reading something 630 00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:41.220 like in a book for example you can kind 631 00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:43.140 of pick up the natural rhythm of grammar 632 00:26:43.140 --> 00:26:45.600 and you also slowly get a feeling for 633 00:26:45.600 --> 00:26:48.659 the correct ways that words should 634 00:26:48.659 --> 00:26:50.760 connect together so this I think is a 635 00:26:50.760 --> 00:26:52.740 really good tip in a sentence I 636 00:26:52.740 --> 00:26:54.840 sometimes read out loud to practice 637 00:26:54.840 --> 00:26:58.080 pronunciation that's true repeat lines 638 00:26:58.080 --> 00:27:01.020 you hear in TV shows the next tip is to 639 00:27:01.020 --> 00:27:03.960 repeat lines you hear or the words you 640 00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:06.600 hear in TV shows or movies things like 641 00:27:06.600 --> 00:27:11.340 that so this means not only words don't 642 00:27:11.340 --> 00:27:14.460 only repeat single vocabulary words yes 643 00:27:14.460 --> 00:27:16.980 maybe you find a vocabulary word that is 644 00:27:16.980 --> 00:27:20.640 really interesting or it sounds funny or 645 00:27:20.640 --> 00:27:24.059 something like that but by repeating a 646 00:27:24.059 --> 00:27:27.299 full sentence or a full line in a TV 647 00:27:27.299 --> 00:27:29.460 show or in a movie you're putting the 648 00:27:29.460 --> 00:27:31.919 words together so not just one word but 649 00:27:31.919 --> 00:27:34.380 making a whole sentence so feeling kind 650 00:27:34.380 --> 00:27:36.480 of the flow of your language that you're 651 00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:40.380 studying so this can be a better way to 652 00:27:40.380 --> 00:27:43.020 actually practice making sentences and 653 00:27:43.020 --> 00:27:45.059 repeating sentences instead of just 654 00:27:45.059 --> 00:27:47.159 words so you can repeat after characters 655 00:27:47.159 --> 00:27:49.500 and TV shows I sometimes do this when 656 00:27:49.500 --> 00:27:51.419 I'm like watching Japanese TV I'm like 657 00:27:51.419 --> 00:27:53.279 ah and then I try and spit it back out 658 00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.619 it's hard to do sometimes when it's like 659 00:27:55.619 --> 00:27:57.119 the first time you've heard a word or 660 00:27:57.119 --> 00:27:58.320 the first time you've heard a grammar 661 00:27:58.320 --> 00:28:00.960 point but you can still understand that 662 00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:02.820 sentence it's interesting so try to say 663 00:28:02.820 --> 00:28:05.520 it and it's kind of fun actually I think 664 00:28:05.520 --> 00:28:08.279 in a sentence try repeating lines from 665 00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:10.380 TV shows to practice 666 00:28:10.380 --> 00:28:13.140 practice speaking in phrases not single 667 00:28:13.140 --> 00:28:16.320 vocabulary words the next tip this is 668 00:28:16.320 --> 00:28:18.600 very similar to my TV show tip is to 669 00:28:18.600 --> 00:28:20.640 practice speaking in phrases not in 670 00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:22.440 vocabulary words not just single 671 00:28:22.440 --> 00:28:24.419 vocabulary words even if you're not 672 00:28:24.419 --> 00:28:27.480 repeating lines from TV shows when you 673 00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:30.480 practice speaking don't just speak in 674 00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:33.659 nouns so sometimes for example I'll hear 675 00:28:33.659 --> 00:28:36.419 people just use noun like they'll use a 676 00:28:36.419 --> 00:28:40.039 noun and maybe a verb like I tomorrow 677 00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:43.559 Beach something like that and yes we can 678 00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:46.679 probably guess based on that how like 679 00:28:46.679 --> 00:28:48.480 the the meaning the speaker's meaning 680 00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:51.900 but you need to practice making a whole 681 00:28:51.900 --> 00:28:55.020 sentence so yes you know those words I 682 00:28:55.020 --> 00:28:57.480 tomorrow and Beach and The Listener can 683 00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:00.240 probably guess what you mean but you 684 00:29:00.240 --> 00:29:02.640 need to practice all those little words 685 00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:06.240 in the middle like uh like I'm going to 686 00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:08.640 the beach tomorrow so make a full 687 00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:10.320 sentence practice making full sentence 688 00:29:10.320 --> 00:29:12.659 sentences don't only practice single 689 00:29:12.659 --> 00:29:14.700 vocabulary words make the whole line 690 00:29:14.700 --> 00:29:16.679 it's really good sometimes I think my 691 00:29:16.679 --> 00:29:18.960 students get irritated like they'll like 692 00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:21.299 I force them to practice full sentences 693 00:29:21.299 --> 00:29:24.899 like so I'll say like uh have you ever 694 00:29:24.899 --> 00:29:28.320 been to Germany and they'll say yes I'm 695 00:29:28.320 --> 00:29:30.600 like okay for the purposes of practice 696 00:29:30.600 --> 00:29:32.940 can you make a full sentence and they'll 697 00:29:32.940 --> 00:29:34.799 say I have been to Germany like that's 698 00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:38.039 an extreme example but like I try to 699 00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:40.080 push that you know making the full 700 00:29:40.080 --> 00:29:42.419 sentence it's it's silly sometimes but 701 00:29:42.419 --> 00:29:45.539 just trying to do that okay so in a 702 00:29:45.539 --> 00:29:47.760 sentence speaking in entire phrases is 703 00:29:47.760 --> 00:29:50.100 helpful for practicing the rhythm of a 704 00:29:50.100 --> 00:29:52.500 new language speak a lot with your 705 00:29:52.500 --> 00:29:54.720 teacher and ask them to be strict with 706 00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:58.140 you onwards okay so the next tip is to 707 00:29:58.140 --> 00:30:00.360 speak a lot with your teacher and ask 708 00:30:00.360 --> 00:30:02.460 them to be strict with you so this is 709 00:30:02.460 --> 00:30:04.919 kind of two tips in one one speak with 710 00:30:04.919 --> 00:30:08.279 your teacher uh so if you have a teacher 711 00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:09.299 um 712 00:30:09.299 --> 00:30:11.760 make sure you're speaking in their class 713 00:30:11.760 --> 00:30:15.000 if you if if wherever possible sometimes 714 00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:16.860 I'll have students join my class and 715 00:30:16.860 --> 00:30:19.679 maybe they feel shy or whatever and they 716 00:30:19.679 --> 00:30:21.539 don't speak very much but please speak 717 00:30:21.539 --> 00:30:23.520 with your teacher so that your teacher 718 00:30:23.520 --> 00:30:25.679 can correct you your teacher can give 719 00:30:25.679 --> 00:30:27.419 you at least if they're a native speaker 720 00:30:27.419 --> 00:30:29.340 or maybe even if they aren't a native 721 00:30:29.340 --> 00:30:31.260 speaker your teacher can give you 722 00:30:31.260 --> 00:30:34.080 Corrections and if you don't speak your 723 00:30:34.080 --> 00:30:36.419 teacher cannot help you in most cases so 724 00:30:36.419 --> 00:30:38.700 please speak with your teacher and if 725 00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:40.620 you like you can tell them please be 726 00:30:40.620 --> 00:30:43.500 strict about my pronunciation so 727 00:30:43.500 --> 00:30:45.539 sometimes people will say please help me 728 00:30:45.539 --> 00:30:48.299 with my pronunciation specifically and 729 00:30:48.299 --> 00:30:50.220 then I can stop them every time they 730 00:30:50.220 --> 00:30:52.260 make a mistake and we practice that 731 00:30:52.260 --> 00:30:56.220 sound especially th sounds like the like 732 00:30:56.220 --> 00:30:57.720 using 733 00:30:57.720 --> 00:30:59.580 um using your mouth a little bit 734 00:30:59.580 --> 00:31:01.679 differently can be really uncomfortable 735 00:31:01.679 --> 00:31:04.799 for some people but if your teacher can 736 00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:06.899 point out those things like th sounds 737 00:31:06.899 --> 00:31:09.840 the this that these those th sounds 738 00:31:09.840 --> 00:31:13.140 ending ER sounds practicing those with 739 00:31:13.140 --> 00:31:15.240 your teacher can be a really good way to 740 00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:18.000 work on your pronunciation so in a 741 00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:19.860 sentence speak a lot with your teacher 742 00:31:19.860 --> 00:31:21.659 they can correct you and help you 743 00:31:21.659 --> 00:31:22.860 improve 744 00:31:22.860 --> 00:31:25.740 try recording yourself speaking and play 745 00:31:25.740 --> 00:31:28.620 it back the next tip for practicing your 746 00:31:28.620 --> 00:31:30.899 pronunciation is to try recording 747 00:31:30.899 --> 00:31:33.299 yourself speaking and listen to it play 748 00:31:33.299 --> 00:31:35.820 it back and listen to it so this it 749 00:31:35.820 --> 00:31:38.700 might sound a little bit strange but um 750 00:31:38.700 --> 00:31:42.059 when we're speaking maybe we don't hear 751 00:31:42.059 --> 00:31:45.600 certain things that certain maybe our 752 00:31:45.600 --> 00:31:47.580 little idiosyncrasies or the little 753 00:31:47.580 --> 00:31:49.740 special things that we do when we speak 754 00:31:49.740 --> 00:31:52.679 maybe we don't hear them as we speak but 755 00:31:52.679 --> 00:31:55.500 when we listen to ourselves later 756 00:31:55.500 --> 00:31:57.659 we notice them so for example when I 757 00:31:57.659 --> 00:31:59.640 watch this video when I watch any of 758 00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:01.799 these videos I notice little things that 759 00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:03.539 I didn't notice 760 00:32:03.539 --> 00:32:06.539 um at now when I'm filming the video so 761 00:32:06.539 --> 00:32:09.059 the same can apply to your pronunciation 762 00:32:09.059 --> 00:32:11.520 when you listen to yourself speak you 763 00:32:11.520 --> 00:32:13.559 might hear something that you don't 764 00:32:13.559 --> 00:32:16.140 notice when you're speaking so this can 765 00:32:16.140 --> 00:32:19.080 be a good way to to kind of remove 766 00:32:19.080 --> 00:32:21.840 yourself to to go outside your body a 767 00:32:21.840 --> 00:32:24.240 little bit and listen to yourself from 768 00:32:24.240 --> 00:32:26.700 the listener's perspective so this might 769 00:32:26.700 --> 00:32:29.760 be a tip to try in a sentence sometimes 770 00:32:29.760 --> 00:32:32.100 you hear yourself more clearly on a 771 00:32:32.100 --> 00:32:35.159 recording do shadowing exercises 772 00:32:35.159 --> 00:32:37.980 all right the next tip for pronunciation 773 00:32:37.980 --> 00:32:41.580 is to do shadowing exercises so a 774 00:32:41.580 --> 00:32:44.399 shadowing exercise uh there are 775 00:32:44.399 --> 00:32:46.980 textbooks and and I think resources on 776 00:32:46.980 --> 00:32:48.659 the webs maybe on the website um 777 00:32:48.659 --> 00:32:50.039 actually I think you could use the 778 00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:53.640 website any uh English listening or 779 00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:55.440 anything in your target language when 780 00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:57.899 you listen to that as the speaker is 781 00:32:57.899 --> 00:33:00.539 speaking you quickly repeat back what 782 00:33:00.539 --> 00:33:02.820 the speaker is saying so as you're 783 00:33:02.820 --> 00:33:04.919 listening to it you repeat it almost 784 00:33:04.919 --> 00:33:08.340 immediately so you're trying to uh to 785 00:33:08.340 --> 00:33:11.340 match their pronunciation as closely as 786 00:33:11.340 --> 00:33:13.860 accurately as possible this is called a 787 00:33:13.860 --> 00:33:17.039 shadowing exercise so I've seen some 788 00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:19.260 cases where people or textbooks will 789 00:33:19.260 --> 00:33:21.240 recommend doing you know 15 minutes of 790 00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:24.120 shadowing each day or something like 791 00:33:24.120 --> 00:33:26.519 that or maybe you can do a shadowing 792 00:33:26.519 --> 00:33:29.100 exercise listening to a podcast or 793 00:33:29.100 --> 00:33:31.440 listening to the news or something you 794 00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:34.559 might find on the website here so that's 795 00:33:34.559 --> 00:33:36.120 a really good way to work on your 796 00:33:36.120 --> 00:33:38.820 pronunciation and to get familiar with 797 00:33:38.820 --> 00:33:41.279 using those sounds 798 00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:43.799 um kind of more naturally the way a 799 00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:45.720 native speaker would so this can be a 800 00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:47.640 good tip to improve your pronunciation 801 00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:50.760 in a sentence try shadowing a native 802 00:33:50.760 --> 00:33:53.460 speaker to improve your pronunciation 803 00:33:53.460 --> 00:33:56.580 chat with native speakers so yeah the 804 00:33:56.580 --> 00:33:58.799 next tip is to chat with native speakers 805 00:33:58.799 --> 00:34:01.019 so chatting with native speakers of 806 00:34:01.019 --> 00:34:04.260 course is a great way to make friends uh 807 00:34:04.260 --> 00:34:07.679 be to pick up new vocabulary C to get 808 00:34:07.679 --> 00:34:10.619 familiar with grammar and slang but also 809 00:34:10.619 --> 00:34:13.320 it can help your pronunciation not all 810 00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:15.780 native speakers speak with exactly the 811 00:34:15.780 --> 00:34:18.300 same pronunciation so you might hear 812 00:34:18.300 --> 00:34:20.339 slight differences depending on the 813 00:34:20.339 --> 00:34:22.619 country depending on the region in a 814 00:34:22.619 --> 00:34:25.200 country a native speaker comes from so 815 00:34:25.200 --> 00:34:26.639 there are many different kinds of 816 00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:29.159 pronunciations or many different there 817 00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:31.320 are many different pronunciations but 818 00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:33.480 when you chat with native speakers you 819 00:34:33.480 --> 00:34:35.099 can kind of understand the different 820 00:34:35.099 --> 00:34:37.619 pronunciations that are out there and 821 00:34:37.619 --> 00:34:40.500 maybe it can help you be

improve your pronunciation 825 00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:49.739 but of course it's important in general 826 00:34:49.739 --> 00:34:52.379 for learning a language I think in a 827 00:34:52.379 --> 00:34:54.179 sentence chatting with native speakers 828 00:34:54.179 --> 00:34:56.460 is an important part of learning a 829 00:34:56.460 --> 00:34:59.940 language do pronunciation drills the 830 00:34:59.940 --> 00:35:02.880 next tip is to do pronunciation drills 831 00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:06.119 so if you know that there's a sound if 832 00:35:06.119 --> 00:35:07.980 you know that there's something that you 833 00:35:07.980 --> 00:35:10.920 always struggle with try drilling it so 834 00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:13.680 a drill to drill something means to 835 00:35:13.680 --> 00:35:16.500 repeat a lot so you might hear this word 836 00:35:16.500 --> 00:35:19.260 used for like uh like Sports and Fitness 837 00:35:19.260 --> 00:35:22.140 like you drill a skill you which means 838 00:35:22.140 --> 00:35:23.940 to practice something a lot and 839 00:35:23.940 --> 00:35:26.700 intensively so if you know that there's 840 00:35:26.700 --> 00:35:28.800 like the th sound is really difficult 841 00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:31.619 for you maybe take 10 minutes and do a 842 00:35:31.619 --> 00:35:34.020 pronunciation drill on those sounds for 843 00:35:34.020 --> 00:35:35.820 you know every day for a month or 844 00:35:35.820 --> 00:35:38.280 something so if you know that there's a 845 00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:40.140 specific sound that's difficult for you 846 00:35:40.140 --> 00:35:42.480 consider trying just some very specific 847 00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:45.119 pronunciation drills 848 00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:48.239 um so that can mean just making that 849 00:35:48.239 --> 00:35:50.780 sound repeatedly or maybe reading a text 850 00:35:50.780 --> 00:35:53.820 out loud that has a lot of that kind of 851 00:35:53.820 --> 00:35:56.460 pronunciation I think you can find a few 852 00:35:56.460 --> 00:35:58.440 different ways to drill to practice 853 00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:01.500 intensively those parts of pronunciation 854 00:36:01.500 --> 00:36:03.839 that are difficult for you so in a 855 00:36:03.839 --> 00:36:06.420 sentence try doing pronunciation drills 856 00:36:06.420 --> 00:36:08.060 for the sounds you have trouble making 857 00:36:08.060 --> 00:36:10.380 find words that are particularly 858 00:36:10.380 --> 00:36:13.739 interesting to you so uh I think maybe 859 00:36:13.739 --> 00:36:16.800 this is the last tip is to find words 860 00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:19.079 that are particularly interesting to you 861 00:36:19.079 --> 00:36:21.660 so maybe there's a word that sounds 862 00:36:21.660 --> 00:36:23.760 really funny or maybe you

said it like that really sorry oh maybe 1023 00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:06.839 it is a gender thing maybe it's more 1024 00:43:06.839 --> 00:43:08.339 common among women than it is among men 1025 00:43:08.339 --> 00:43:09.900 but I feel like it maybe it's just in a 1026 00:43:09.900 --> 00:43:11.219 movie or maybe it's because of where I'm 1027 00:43:11.219 --> 00:43:13.140 from that people will say like if you 1028 00:43:13.140 --> 00:43:15.300 watch the last video for example dude I 1029 00:43:15.300 --> 00:43:17.640 know that kind of yeah yeah yeah but 1030 00:43:17.640 --> 00:43:19.440 that your point about kids saying that 1031 00:43:19.440 --> 00:43:22.140 is so funny like when when you get in 1032 00:43:22.140 --> 00:43:23.640 trouble I know 1033 00:43:23.640 --> 00:43:26.040 I know I know saying it like that it has 1034 00:43:26.040 --> 00:43:27.119 a different meaning it's another 1035 00:43:27.119 --> 00:43:29.520 exercise in intonation maybe this word I 1036 00:43:29.520 --> 00:43:31.680 know but this phrase rather okay cool uh 1037 00:43:31.680 --> 00:43:33.599 so there's one what's your what's your 1038 00:43:33.599 --> 00:43:36.839 first one so my first word is not really 1039 00:43:36.839 --> 00:43:38.640 a word it's spelled a couple different 1040 00:43:38.640 --> 00:43:41.599 ways is 1041 00:43:42.540 --> 00:43:44.460 so this is something I I didn't realize 1042 00:43:44.460 --> 00:43:47.219 that I I do a lot or say a lot or 1043 00:43:47.219 --> 00:43:50.280 whatever but it's um 1044 00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:53.359 it's a sound that English speakers make 1045 00:43:53.359 --> 00:43:57.599 that shows disapproval so I don't know 1046 00:43:57.599 --> 00:43:59.520 like okay for example the kid the kid 1047 00:43:59.520 --> 00:44:01.020 who's talking to a parent and then the 1048 00:44:01.020 --> 00:44:02.339 parent says you know you need to do your 1049 00:44:02.339 --> 00:44:04.980 homework I know I know but no seriously 1050 00:44:04.980 --> 00:44:06.960 you need to get into a good girl mom 1051 00:44:06.960 --> 00:44:08.880 whatever yeah so it may be the same as 1052 00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:10.079 like whatever 1053 00:44:10.079 --> 00:44:12.119 yep she's good there are a lot of 1054 00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:14.579 variations on Whatever Whenever you 1055 00:44:14.579 --> 00:44:15.719 don't want to hear what the other person 1056 00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:18.060 is saying you can use 1057 00:44:18.060 --> 00:44:19.800 or I've seen another one that I like to 1058 00:44:19.800 --> 00:44:22.980 use pffft 1059 00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:27.180 that one's harder to say though it's not 1060 00:44:27.180 --> 00:44:29.819 so natural I think she's good any any 1061 00:44:29.819 --> 00:44:31.020 sort of 1062 00:44:31.020 --> 00:44:34.560 PP kind of sound just any sort of just 1063 00:44:34.560 --> 00:44:36.480 nonsensical phrase said like that means 1064 00:44:36.480 --> 00:44:37.440 I don't want to listen to what you're 1065 00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:39.780 saying yeah that's a great one that's a 1066 00:44:39.780 --> 00:44:42.960 great one I use that all the time too 1067 00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:45.000 I wish I wish I didn't use it as much as 1068 00:44:45.000 --> 00:44:47.779 I did but so 1069 00:44:48.300 --> 00:44:51.060 all right uh well onward I guess my next 1070 00:44:51.060 --> 00:44:52.560 word is anyway 1071 00:44:52.560 --> 00:44:56.040 I like to use to transition between two 1072 00:44:56.040 --> 00:44:58.319 things to transition between ideas I 1073 00:44:58.319 --> 00:45:00.180 also like to use it when I'm I've been 1074 00:45:00.180 --> 00:45:02.160 talking for way too long and I need to 1075 00:45:02.160 --> 00:45:03.540 make an exit from the conversation 1076 00:45:03.540 --> 00:45:06.239 usually I use anyway with kind of a dot 1077 00:45:06.239 --> 00:45:09.180 dot dot at the end like anyway and I 1078 00:45:09.180 --> 00:45:10.440 don't finish anything I don't finish 1079 00:45:10.440 --> 00:45:12.420 saying anything after that it's just 1080 00:45:12.420 --> 00:45:14.280 sort of it's my just 1081 00:45:14.280 --> 00:45:17.420 recital out of it as 1082 00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:21.599 anyway so I use this word a lot actually 1083 00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:23.400 I'm glad you said that um actually some 1084 00:45:23.400 --> 00:45:25.619 of my students asked me they said 1085 00:45:25.619 --> 00:45:27.660 you know what are some good 1086 00:45:27.660 --> 00:45:30.719 um words that connect two ideas or 1087 00:45:30.719 --> 00:45:32.400 something like that like a beginning you 1088 00:45:32.400 --> 00:45:34.560 know like first second these kinds of 1089 00:45:34.560 --> 00:45:36.599 words and I noticed and I never noticed 1090 00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:38.219 this before it actually relates to this 1091 00:45:38.219 --> 00:45:39.839 question 1092 00:45:39.839 --> 00:45:42.300 um that a lot of the things that you 1093 00:45:42.300 --> 00:45:44.700 look up that are transition words we 1094 00:45:44.700 --> 00:45:47.099 don't ever use in speech it doesn't 1095 00:45:47.099 --> 00:45:48.780 sound natural but you have to use 1096 00:45:48.780 --> 00:45:50.579 synonyms you have to switch it up if 1097 00:45:50.579 --> 00:45:52.560 you're writing yeah speaking I say 1098 00:45:52.560 --> 00:45:55.500 anyway almost every other sentence maybe 1099 00:45:55.500 --> 00:45:57.239 I do it too much well not that much but 1100 00:45:57.239 --> 00:45:59.099 a lot a lot I realize that even typing 1101 00:45:59.099 --> 00:46:01.920 even business emails I say it all of the 1102 00:46:01.920 --> 00:46:04.680 time like it's kind of like well yeah 1103 00:46:04.680 --> 00:46:07.260 anyway yeah uh maybe because I go on 1104 00:46:07.260 --> 00:46:09.180 tangents a lot so for me I use it not 1105 00:46:09.180 --> 00:46:11.640 not as much as the Anyway dot dot dot I 1106 00:46:11.640 --> 00:46:13.680 usually do the anyway back to what I was 1107 00:46:13.680 --> 00:46:15.239 saying blah blah blah blah yeah yeah 1108 00:46:15.239 --> 00:46:17.040 yeah so yeah that's a good point about 1109 00:46:17.040 --> 00:46:18.900 it being used for transitions so a lot 1110 00:46:18.900 --> 00:46:20.219 of my students are the same way they'll 1111 00:46:20.219 --> 00:46:21.900 pick like a really really formal almost 1112 00:46:21.900 --> 00:46:24.000 businessy term to use to transition in 1113 00:46:24.000 --> 00:46:25.200 their speech and it doesn't really sound 1114 00:46:25.200 --> 00:46:26.700 so natural but something like anywhere 1115 00:46:26.700 --> 00:46:29.160 like you said well or so it's much 1116 00:46:29.160 --> 00:46:30.719 better to use in conversation I think 1117 00:46:30.719 --> 00:46:34.500 cool okay anyway anyway 1118 00:46:34.500 --> 00:46:35.960 um 1119 00:46:35.960 --> 00:46:38.880 seriously so seriously this is another 1120 00:46:38.880 --> 00:46:40.859 one always the the intonation this is 1121 00:46:40.859 --> 00:46:42.599 this is our our thing is intonation I 1122 00:46:42.599 --> 00:46:43.920 guess but 1123 00:46:43.920 --> 00:46:46.319 um seriously can be said in a lot of 1124 00:46:46.319 --> 00:46:47.460 different ways 1125 00:46:47.460 --> 00:46:50.400 um For Me Maybe the most common is the 1126 00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:52.200 same as when you say really just kind of 1127 00:46:52.200 --> 00:46:54.359 like seriously like did that actually 1128 00:46:54.359 --> 00:46:56.760 happen no way really yeah anytime you 1129 00:46:56.760 --> 00:46:59.579 anytime you go up like that it's just 1130 00:46:59.579 --> 00:47:00.839 it's a rhetorical question you don't 1131 00:47:00.839 --> 00:47:02.400 actually want an answer just like wow 1132 00:47:02.400 --> 00:47:04.079 same thing as wow 1133 00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:05.819 um and then there's also the 1134 00:47:05.819 --> 00:47:08.400 when someone does something stupid and 1135 00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:10.739 you just look and seriously yeah you 1136 00:47:10.739 --> 00:47:12.359 know but that's less common that's you 1137 00:47:12.359 --> 00:47:15.239 know kind of uh really 1138 00:47:15.239 --> 00:47:18.180 seriously no really I mean I I use it 1139 00:47:18.180 --> 00:47:19.859 the way that you just described it to to 1140 00:47:19.859 --> 00:47:21.900 just to like if I see I don't know 1141 00:47:21.900 --> 00:47:23.579 somebody is walking on the street in 1142 00:47:23.579 --> 00:47:25.560 front of me and maybe they stop and they 1143 00:47:25.560 --> 00:47:26.700 don't have any consideration for the 1144 00:47:26.700 --> 00:47:28.200 people behind them on the street I might 1145 00:47:28.200 --> 00:47:29.940 go seriously 1146 00:47:29.940 --> 00:47:31.319 yeah you're right you're right you're 1147 00:47:31.319 --> 00:47:34.859 right like is this really happening did 1148 00:47:34.859 --> 00:47:37.200 you just make this decision I so I maybe 1149 00:47:37.200 --> 00:47:39.000 I use it when I'm talking to myself more 1150 00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:41.400 not so much I don't necessarily yeah 1151 00:47:41.400 --> 00:47:43.079 those are fighting words yeah those are 1152 00:47:43.079 --> 00:47:44.640 fighting words so no you're right I 1153 00:47:44.640 --> 00:47:47.160 think maybe driving same thing yeah 1154 00:47:47.160 --> 00:47:49.319 seriously or 1155 00:47:49.319 --> 00:47:53.339 I mean are you are you kidding me well I 1156 00:47:53.339 --> 00:47:54.599 don't want to say the bad version of it 1157 00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:55.980 but this is what I'm thinking when I'm 1158 00:47:55.980 --> 00:47:57.239 driving like are you kidding me 1159 00:47:57.239 --> 00:47:59.099 seriously you're right you're right but 1160 00:47:59.099 --> 00:48:00.060 it's usually to yourself because 1161 00:48:00.060 --> 00:48:01.859 otherwise it's pretty aggressive that's 1162 00:48:01.859 --> 00:48:03.599 true yeah so don't say it to the other 1163 00:48:03.599 --> 00:48:06.180 person but yeah you're right in terms of 1164 00:48:06.180 --> 00:48:07.440 when you're talking to your friends and 1165 00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:08.940 you want to ask did that really happen 1166 00:48:08.940 --> 00:48:11.900 to you seriously yeah it's super useful 1167 00:48:11.900 --> 00:48:14.940 okay is it my turn again okay last one 1168 00:48:14.940 --> 00:48:17.819 for me uh my last one is when I use all 1169 00:48:17.819 --> 00:48:19.560 the time in a number of situations I've 1170 00:48:19.560 --> 00:48:21.839 chosen I don't know 1171 00:48:21.839 --> 00:48:23.700 um this is great for of course when you 1172 00:48:23.700 --> 00:48:25.739 don't know the answer to something 1173 00:48:25.739 --> 00:48:28.140 um but I think when you don't know the 1174 00:48:28.140 --> 00:48:29.520 answer to something like a you know a 1175 00:48:29.520 --> 00:48:31.079 math question or whatever it's better to 1176 00:48:31.079 --> 00:48:33.420 say I don't know but when you use the 1177 00:48:33.420 --> 00:48:35.880 the contracted Deno form of don't know 1178 00:48:35.880 --> 00:48:38.219 it just shows kind of that you're it's 1179 00:48:38.219 --> 00:48:40.560 not a serious issue it's not something 1180 00:48:40.560 --> 00:48:42.420 you need you're overly concerned with 1181 00:48:42.420 --> 00:48:44.099 you're just I don't know I don't have an 1182 00:48:44.099 --> 00:48:46.500 answer I don't have an idea it's kind of 1183 00:48:46.500 --> 00:48:48.060 like saying you know what do you think 1184 00:48:48.060 --> 00:48:51.420 or just this is all I've got you know 1185 00:48:51.420 --> 00:48:54.300 um so I don't know do you use this 1186 00:48:54.300 --> 00:48:56.520 that's how I use it no that's that's a 1187 00:48:56.520 --> 00:48:58.859 really good one um the same thing is 1188 00:48:58.859 --> 00:49:01.440 anyway I type this a lot I say well I 1189 00:49:01.440 --> 00:49:03.960 say IDK which is the acronym for it I 1190 00:49:03.960 --> 00:49:06.239 would never say IDK out loud don't say 1191 00:49:06.239 --> 00:49:08.400 IDK that sounds kind of stupid I'm sorry 1192 00:49:08.400 --> 00:49:11.460 in my opinion but you say I don't know I 1193 00:49:11.460 --> 00:49:12.780 don't know I don't know I say that all 1194 00:49:12.780 --> 00:49:15.599 the time because I think it's it's 1195 00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:17.640 just a nice way to be humble really 1196 00:49:17.640 --> 00:49:19.739 because maybe you do know or you think 1197 00:49:19.739 --> 00:49:21.839 you know but it's a nice way to be like 1198 00:49:21.839 --> 00:49:24.599 I'm not sure you know what do you think 1199 00:49:24.599 --> 00:49:27.960 it's a nice um it's it tones down your 1200 00:49:27.960 --> 00:49:29.520 your tone you don't sound as 1201 00:49:29.520 --> 00:49:31.200 authoritative as aggressive you say I 1202 00:49:31.200 --> 00:49:32.400 don't know what do you want to eat 1203 00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:34.140 Chinese food tonight yeah I mean I don't 1204 00:49:34.140 --> 00:49:35.339 know we can we can eat whatever you want 1205 00:49:35.339 --> 00:49:36.660 what do you think yeah it's like a 1206 00:49:36.660 --> 00:49:38.160 really nice softener like that if you 1207 00:49:38.160 --> 00:49:40.260 want to introduce you know like an offer 1208 00:49:40.260 --> 00:49:41.940 if you have an idea about something but 1209 00:49:41.940 -->

1266 00:51:54.119 --> 00:51:56.400 noun it's referring to the clock you can 1267 00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:58.020 wear on your wrist 1268 00:51:58.020 --> 00:52:00.059 do you have a watch 1269

00:52:10.739 --> 00:52:13.739 glasses 1274 00:52:13.920 --> 00:52:17.339 so glasses are eyewear we wear glasses 1275 00:52:17.339 --> 00:52:19.680 so that we can see better or so that we 1276 00:52:19.680 --> 00:52:22.140 can block the Sun from our eyes 1277 00:52:22.140 --> 00:52:24.119 I don't wear glasses 1278 00:52:24.119 --> 00:52:26.359 I don't wear glasses 1279 00:52:26.359 -->

00:53:06.719 something get sounds a little bit more 1294 00:53:06.719 --> 00:53:08.700 casual than receive 1295 00:53:08.700 --> 00:53:11.640 to receive a confession of love 1296 00:53:11.640 -->

search means to look for to 1300 00:53:30.059 --> 00:53:32.640 look for something search tends to sound 1301 00:53:32.640 --> 00:53:36.000 a little bit more formal than look for 1302 00:53:36.000 --> 00:53:37.920 it'll show up if you search on the 1303 00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:39.059 internet 1304 00:53:39.059 --> 00:53:40.920 it'll show up if you search on the 1305 00:53:40.920 --> 00:53:42.239

so take means to remove something from 1310 00:53:58.380 --> 00:54:01.380 another place or to choose something 1311 00:54:01.380 --> 00:54:03.780 please take me home 1312 00:54:03.780 --> 00:54:06.059

word is the opposite of the word 1317 00:54:19.020 --> 00:54:21.000 strong it means something that doesn't 1318 00:54:21.000 --> 00:54:23.339 have a lot of power 1319 00:54:23.339 --> 00:54:25.739 a

some ways to get 1444 01:00:54.059 --> 01:00:56.460 in touch with someone after you have met 1445 01:00:56.460 --> 01:00:59.400 them once already in a lot of textbooks 1446 01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:02.160 you've probably seen the question what's 1447 01:01:02.160 --> 01:01:03.720 your phone number 1448 01:01:03.720 --> 01:01:06.119 what's your phone number 1449 01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:09.359 it's a very useful question but there 1450 01:01:09.359 --> 01:01:11.220 are two problems with it 1451 01:01:11.220 --> 01:01:14.299 first it can sound a little too direct 1452 01:01:14.299 --> 01:01:16.799 especially when talking to members of 1453 01:01:16.799 --> 01:01:20.460 the opposite sex and second people use 1454 01:01:20.460 --> 01:01:22.740 the phone a lot less these days than 1455 01:01:22.740 --> 01:01:25.980 they used to instead they might prefer 1456 01:01:25.980 --> 01:01:28.319 to connect by email or on a social 1457 01:01:28.319 --> 01:01:30.480 network like Facebook 1458 01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:34.200 to start though a simple variation on 1459 01:01:34.200 --> 01:01:36.480 what's your phone number that sounds a 1460 01:01:36.480 --> 01:01:39.180 little less direct is could I get your 1461 01:01:39.180 --> 01:01:40.319 number 1462 01:01:40.319 --> 01:01:42.780 could I get your number 1463 01:01:42.780 --> 01:01:45.900 we start the sentence with could 1464 01:01:45.900 --> 01:01:49.740 which softens the request next say I 1465 01:01:49.740 --> 01:01:54.420 then get and finally your number which 1466 01:01:54.420 --> 01:01:57.299 is short for your phone number 1467 01:01:57.299 --> 01:02:00.599 this question is slightly casual but it 1468 01:02:00.599 --> 01:02:03.200 can be used in almost any situation 1469 01:02:03.200 --> 01:02:06.720 recently many people prefer to use email 1470 01:02:06.720 --> 01:02:09.260 rather than the phone to communicate 1471 01:02:09.260 --> 01:02:11.940 asking someone for his or her email 1472 01:02:11.940 --> 01:02:14.700 address is also a little less direct 1473 01:02:14.700 --> 01:02:17.460 than asking for their phone number could 1474 01:02:17.460 --> 01:02:20.099 I get your email address 1475 01:02:20.099 --> 01:02:22.920 could I get your email address 1476 01:02:22.920 --> 01:02:26.400 we just took could I get your number and 1477 01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:30.480 replaced number with email address it's 1478 01:02:30.480 --> 01:02:31.559 that simple 1479 01:02:31.559 --> 01:02:33.960 could I get your email address 1480 01:02:33.960 --> 01:02:36.299 if someone asks you either of these 1481 01:02:36.299 --> 01:02:39.599 questions you can reply by saying sure 1482 01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:42.240 my phone number is 1483 01:02:42.240 --> 01:02:47.880 sure my phone number is or sure my email 1484 01:02:47.880 --> 01:02:49.740 address is 1485 01:02:49.740 --> 01:02:55.619 sure my email address is or sure it's 1486 01:02:55.619 --> 01:02:58.619 and then say your phone number

pronunciation is to read 1565 01:06:36.480 --> 01:06:39.780 out loud so reading out loud you can 1566 01:06:39.780 --> 01:06:41.940 choose something that's interesting for 1567 01:06:41.940 --> 01:06:44.160 you in your in English if English is the 1568 01:06:44.160 --> 01:06:46.020 language you're studying so pick 1569 01:06:46.020 --> 01:06:48.119 something maybe it's a news article or 1570 01:06:48.119 --> 01:06:50.640 maybe it's a book you're interested in 1571 01:06:50.640 --> 01:06:52.079 maybe there's an author you're are 1572 01:06:52.079 --> 01:06:54.839 interested in find something in your 1573 01:06:54.839 --> 01:06:57.660 target language in English and try 1574 01:06:57.660 --> 01:06:59.880 reading it out loud so don't just read 1575 01:06:59.880 --> 01:07:03.000 in your mind but read the words out loud 1576 01:07:03.000 --> 01:07:05.039 speak them so that you can get 1577 01:07:05.039 --> 01:07:07.980 comfortable pronouncing those words and 1578 01:07:07.980 --> 01:07:10.799 you can try reading the same passage or 1579 01:07:10.799 --> 01:07:13.200 the same sentence multiple times to make 1580 01:07:13.200 --> 01:07:15.900 it smoother so this can be a really good 1581 01:07:15.900 --> 01:07:19.319 tip for and it I think it also improves 1582 01:07:19.319 --> 01:07:22.680 your natural ability to pick up grammar 1583 01:07:22.680 --> 01:07:24.539 too because if you're reading something 1584 01:07:24.539 --> 01:07:27.059 like in a book for example you can kind 1585 01:07:27.059 --> 01:07:29.039 of pick up the natural rhythm of grammar 1586 01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:31.500 and you also slowly get a feeling for 1587 01:07:31.500 --> 01:07:34.559 the correct ways that words should 1588 01:07:34.559 --> 01:07:36.660 connect together so this I think is a 1589 01:07:36.660 --> 01:07:38.880 really good tip in a sentence I 1590 01:07:38.880 --> 01:07:40.680 sometimes read out loud to practice 1591 01:07:40.680 --> 01:07:43.980 pronunciation that's true repeat lines 1592 01:07:43.980 --> 01:07:46.859 you hear in TV shows the next tip is to 1593 01:07:46.859 --> 01:07:49.859 repeat lines you hear or the words you 1594 01:07:49.859 --> 01:07:52.260 hear in TV shows or movies these things 1595 01:07:52.260 --> 01:07:56.760 like that so this means not only words 1596 01:07:56.760 --> 01:07:59.640 don't only repeat single vocabulary 1597 01:07:59.640 --> 01:08:02.099 words yes maybe you find a vocabulary 1598 01:08:02.099 --> 01:08:05.220 word that is really interesting or it 1599 01:08:05.220 --> 01:08:07.799 sounds funny or something like that but 1600 01:08:07.799 --> 01:08:11.579 by repeating a full sentence or a full 1601 01:08:11.579 --> 01:08:14.819 line in a TV show or in a movie you're 1602 01:08:14.819 --> 01:08:17.040 putting the words together so not just 1603 01:08:17.040 --> 01:08:19.560 one word but making a whole sentence so 1604 01:08:19.560 --> 01:08:21.540 feeling kind of the flow of your 1605 01:08:21.540 --> 01:08:24.420 language that you're studying so this 1606 01:08:24.420 --> 01:08:27.299 can be a better way to actually practice 1607 01:08:27.299 --> 01:08:29.880 making sentences and repeating sentences 1608 01:08:29.880 --> 01:08:32.339 instead of just words so you can repeat 1609 01:08:32.339 --> 01:08:34.439 after characters and TV shows I 1610 01:08:34.439 --> 01:08:36.179 sometimes do this when I'm like watching 1611 01:08:36.179 --> 01:08:38.160 Japanese TV I'm like ah and then I try 1612 01:08:38.160 --> 01:08:40.259 and spit it back out it's hard to do 1613 01:08:40.259 --> 01:08:41.939 sometimes when it's like the first time 1614 01:08:41.939 --> 01:08:43.259 you've heard a word or the first time 1615 01:08:43.259 --> 01:08:45.660 you've heard a grammar point but you can 1616 01:08:45.660 --> 01:08:47.339 still understand that sentence it's 1617 01:08:47.339 --> 01:08:50.100 interesting so try to say it and it's 1618 01:08:50.100 --> 01:08:52.259 kind of fun actually I think in a 1619 01:08:52.259 --> 01:08:54.600 sentence try repeating lines from TV 1620 01:08:54.600 --> 01:08:56.219 shows to practice 1621 01:08:56.219 --> 01:08:58.979 practice speaking in phrases not single 1622 01:08:58.979 --> 01:09:02.160 vocabulary words the next tip this is 1623 01:09:02.160 --> 01:09:04.439 very similar to my TV show tip is to 1624 01:09:04.439 --> 01:09:06.479 practice speaking in phrases not in 1625 01:09:06.479 --> 01:09:08.279 vocabulary words not just single 1626 01:09:08.279 --> 01:09:10.259 vocabulary words even if you're not 1627 01:09:10.259 --> 01:09:13.319 repeating lines from TV shows when you 1628 01:09:13.319 --> 01:09:16.319 practice speaking don't just speak in 1629 01:09:16.319 --> 01:09:19.500 nouns so sometimes for example I'll hear 1630 01:09:19.500 --> 01:09:22.259 people just use noun like they'll use a 1631 01:09:22.259 --> 01:09:25.880 noun and maybe a verb like I tomorrow 1632 01:09:25.880 --> 01:09:29.400 Beach something like that and yes we can 1633 01:09:29.400 --> 01:09:32.520 probably guess based on that how like 1634 01:09:32.520 --> 01:09:34.319 the the meaning the speaker's meaning 1635 01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:37.738 but you need to practice making a whole 1636 01:09:37.738 --> 01:09:40.859 sentence so yes you know those words I 1637 01:09:40.859 --> 01:09:43.319 tomorrow and Beach and The Listener can 1638 01:09:43.319 --> 01:09:46.080 probably guess what you mean but you 1639 01:09:46.080 --> 01:09:48.479 need to practice all those little words 1640 01:09:48.479 --> 01:09:52.080 in the middle like uh like I'm going to 1641 01:09:52.080 --> 01:09:54.479 the beach tomorrow so make a full 1642 01:09:54.479 --> 01:09:56.160 sentence practice making full sentence 1643 01:09:56.160 --> 01:09:58.500 sentences don't only practice single 1644 01:09:58.500 --> 01:10:00.540 vocabulary words make the whole line 1645 01:10:00.540 --> 01:10:02.520 it's really good sometimes I think my 1646 01:10:02.520 --> 01:10:04.800 students get irritated like they'll like 1647 01:10:04.800 --> 01:10:07.140 I force them to practice full sentences 1648 01:10:07.140 --> 01:10:10.738 like so I'll say like uh have you ever 1649 01:10:10.738 --> 01:10:14.160 been to Germany and they'll say yes I'm 1650 01:10:14.160 --> 01:10:16.439 like okay for the purposes of practice 1651 01:10:16.439 --> 01:10:18.780 can you make a full sentence and they'll 1652 01:10:18.780 --> 01:10:20.640 say I have been to Germany like that's 1653 01:10:20.640 --> 01:10:23.880 an extreme example but like I try to 1654 01:10:23.880 --> 01:10:25.920 push that you know making the full 1655 01:10:25.920 --> 01:10:28.320 sentence it's it's silly sometimes but 1656 01:10:28.320 --> 01:10:31.380 just trying to do that okay so in a 1657 01:10:31.380 --> 01:10:33.600 sentence speaking in entire phrases is 1658 01:10:33.600 --> 01:10:35.939 helpful for practicing the rhythm of a 1659 01:10:35.939 --> 01:10:38.340 new language speak a lot with your 1660 01:10:38.340 --> 01:10:40.500 teacher and ask them to be strict with 1661 01:10:40.500 --> 01:10:43.979 you onwards okay so the next tip is to 1662 01:10:43.979 --> 01:10:46.198 speak a lot with your teacher and ask 1663 01:10:46.198 --> 01:10:48.300 them to be strict with you so this is 1664 01:10:48.300 --> 01:10:50.880 kind of two tips in one one speak with 1665 01:10:50.880 --> 01:10:54.120 your teacher uh so if you have a teacher 1666 01:10:54.120 --> 01:10:55.140 um 1667 01:10:55.140 --> 01:10:57.600 make sure you're speaking in their class 1668 01:10:57.600 --> 01:11:00.840 if you if if wherever possible sometimes 1669 01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:02.698 I'll have students join my class and 1670 01:11:02.698 --> 01:11:05.520 maybe they feel shy or whatever and they 1671 01:11:05.520 --> 01:11:07.380 don't speak very much but please speak 1672 01:11:07.380 --> 01:11:09.360 with your teacher so that your teacher 1673 01:11:09.360 --> 01:11:11.520 can correct you your teacher can give 1674 01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:13.260 you at least if they're a native speaker 1675 01:11:13.260 --> 01:11:15.238 or maybe even if they aren't a native 1676 01:11:15.238 --> 01:11:17.100 speaker your teacher can give you 1677 01:11:17.100 --> 01:11:19.920 Corrections and if you don't speak your 1678 01:11:19.920 --> 01:11:22.260 teacher cannot help you in most cases so 1679 01:11:22.260 --> 01:11:24.600 please speak with your teacher and if 1680 01:11:24.600 --> 01:11:26.460 you like you can tell them please be 1681 01:11:26.460 --> 01:11:29.340 strict about my pronunciation so 1682 01:11:29.340 --> 01:11:31.380 sometimes people will say please help me 1683 01:11:31.380 --> 01:11:34.140 with my pronunciation specifically and 1684 01:11:34.140 --> 01:11:36.060 then I can stop them every time they 1685 01:11:36.060 --> 01:11:38.100 make a mistake and we practice that 1686 01:11:38.100 --> 01:11:42.060 sound especially th sounds like the like 1687 01:11:42.060 --> 01:11:43.560 using 1688 01:11:43.560 --> 01:11:45.420 um using your mouth a little bit 1689 01:11:45.420 --> 01:11:47.520 differently can be really uncomfortable 1690 01:11:47.520 --> 01:11:50.400 for some people but if you're a teacher 1691 01:11:50.400 --> 01:11:52.380 can point out those things like th 1692 01:11:52.380 --> 01:11:54.479 sounds the this that these those those 1693 01:11:54.479 --> 01:11:58.500 th sounds ending ER sounds practicing 1694 01:11:58.500 --> 01:12:00.060 those with your teacher can be a really 1695 01:12:00.060 --> 01:12:02.479 good way to work on your pronunciation 1696 01:12:02.479 --> 01:12:05.400 so in a sentence speak a lot with your 1697 01:12:05.400 --> 01:12:07.320 teacher they can correct you and help 1698 01:12:07.320 --> 01:12:08.698 you improve 1699 01:12:08.698 --> 01:12:11.520 try recording yourself speaking and play 1700 01:12:11.520 --> 01:12:14.400 it back the next tip for practicing your 1701 01:12:14.400 --> 01:12:16.738 pronunciation is to try recording 1702 01:12:16.738 --> 01:12:19.140 yourself speaking and listen to it play 1703 01:12:19.140 --> 01:12:21.600 it back and listen to it so this it 1704 01:12:21.600 --> 01:12:24.600 might sound a little bit strange but um 1705 01:12:24.600 --> 01:12:27.960 when we're speaking maybe we don't hear 1706 01:12:27.960 --> 01:12:31.439 certain things that certain maybe our 1707 01:12:31.439 --> 01:12:33.479 little idiosyncrasies or the little 1708 01:12:33.479 --> 01:12:35.580 special things that we do when we speak 1709 01:12:35.580 --> 01:12:38.580 maybe we don't hear them as we speak but 1710 01:12:38.580 --> 01:12:41.280 when we listen to ourselves later 1711 01:12:41.280 --> 01:12:43.439 we notice them so for example when I 1712 01:12:43.439 --> 01:12:45.420 watch this video when I watch any of 1713 01:12:45.420 --> 01:12:47.580 these videos I notice little things that 1714 01:12:47.580 --> 01:12:49.320 I didn't notice 1715 01:12:49.320 --> 01:12:52.380 um at now when I'm filming the video so 1716 01:12:52.380 --> 01:12:54.840 the same can apply to your pronunciation 1717 01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:57.360 when you listen to yourself speak you 1718 01:12:57.360 --> 01:12:59.400 might hear something that you don't 1719 01:12:59.400 --> 01:13:01.979 notice when you're speaking so this can 1720 01:13:01.979 --> 01:13:04.860 be a good way to to kind of remove 1721 01:13:04.860 --> 01:13:07.620 yourself to to go outside your body a 1722 01:13:07.620 --> 01:13:10.020 little bit and listen to yourself from 1723 01:13:10.020 --> 01:13:12.540 the listener's perspective so this might 1724 01:13:12.540 --> 01:13:15.540 be a tip to try in a sentence sometimes 1725 01:13:15.540 --> 01:13:17.880 you hear yourself more clearly on a 1726 01:13:17.880 --> 01:13:21.000 recording do shadowing exercises 1727 01:13:21.000 --> 01:13:23.820 all right the next tip for pronunciation 1728 01:13:23.820 --> 01:13:27.420 is to do shadowing exercises so a 1729 01:13:27.420 --> 01:13:30.238 shadowing exercise uh there are 1730 01:13:30.238 --> 01:13:32.820 textbooks and and I think resources on 1731 01:13:32.820 --> 01:13:34.560 the webs maybe on the website um 1732 01:13:34.560 --> 01:13:35.880 actually I think you could use the 1733 01:13:35.880 --> 01:13:39.479 website any uh English listening or 1734 01:13:39.479 --> 01:13:41.340 anything in your target language when 1735 01:13:41.340 --> 01:13:43.738 you listen to that as the speaker is 1736 01:13:43.738 --> 01:13:46.380 speaking you quickly repeat back what 1737 01:13:46.380 --> 01:13:48.659 the speaker is saying so as you're 1738 01:13:48.659 --> 01:13:50.760 listening to it you repeat it almost 1739 01:13:50.760 --> 01:13:54.179 immediately so you're trying to uh to 1740 01:13:54.179 --> 01:13:57.179 match their pronunciation as closely as 1741 01:13:57.179 --> 01:13:59.698 accurately as possible this is called a 1742 01:13:59.698 --> 01:14:02.939 shadowing exercise so I've seen some 1743 01:14:02.939 --> 01:14:05.100 cases where people or textbooks will 1744 01:14:05.100 --> 01:14:07.080 recommend doing you know 15 minutes of 1745 01:14:07.080 --> 01:14:09.960 shadowing each day or something like 1746 01:14:09.960 --> 01:14:12.360 that or maybe you can do a shadowing 1747 01:14:12.360 --> 01:14:14.939 exercise listening to a podcast or 1748 01:14:14.939 --> 01:14:17.280 listening to the news or something you 1749 01:14:17.280 --> 01:14:20.400 might find on the website here so that's 1750 01:14:20.400 --> 01:14:21.960 a really good way to work on your 1751 01:14:21.960 --> 01:14:24.659 pronunciation and to get familiar with 1752 01:14:24.659 --> 01:14:27.179 using those sounds 1753 01:14:27.179 --> 01:14:29.640 um kind of more naturally the way a 1754 01:14:29.640 --> 01:14:31.560 native speaker would so this can be a 1755 01:14:31.560 --> 01:14:33.479 good tip to improve your pronunciation 1756 01:14:33.479 --> 01:14:36.600 in a sentence try shadowing a native 1757 01:14:36.600 --> 01:14:39.300 speaker to improve your pronunciation 1758 01:14:39.300 --> 01:14:42.420 chat with native speakers so yeah the 1759 01:14:42.420 --> 01:14:44.640 next tip is to chat with native speakers 1760 01:14:44.640 --> 01:14:46.920 so chatting with native speakers of

grammar and slang but also 1764 01:14:56.460 --> 01:14:59.159 it can help your pronunciation not all 1765 01:14:59.159 --> 01:15:01.620 native speakers speak with exactly the 1766 01:15:01.620 --> 01:15:04.140 same pronunciation so you might hear 1767 01:15:04.140 --> 01:15:06.179 slight differences depending on the 1768 01:15:06.179 --> 01:15:08.460 country depending on the region in a 1769 01:15:08.460 --> 01:15:11.040 country a native speaker comes from so 1770 01:15:11.040 --> 01:15:12.479 there are many different kinds of 1771 01:15:12.479 --> 01:15:15.000 pronunciations or many different there 1772 01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:17.159 are many different pronunciations but 1773 01:15:17.159 --> 01:15:19.320 when you chat with native speakers you 1774 01:15:19.320 --> 01:15:20.939 can kind of understand the different 1775 01:15:20.939 --> 01:15:23.460 pronunciations that are out there and 1776 01:15:23.460 --> 01:15:26.340 maybe it can help you be more consistent 1777

pronunciation 1780 01:15:33.420 --> 01:15:35.580 but of course it's important in general 1781 01:15:35.580 --> 01:15:38.219 for learning a language I think in a 1782 01:15:38.219 --> 01:15:40.020 sentence chatting with native speakers 1783 01:15:40.020 --> 01:15:42.300 is an important part of learning a 1784 01:15:42.300 --> 01:15:45.780 language do pronunciation drills the 1785 01:15:45.780 --> 01:15:48.719 next tip is to do pronunciation drills 1786 01:15:48.719 --> 01:15:51.960 so if you know that there's a sound if 1787 01:15:51.960 --> 01:15:53.820 you know that there's something that you 1788 01:15:53.820 --> 01:15:56.760 always struggle with try drilling it so 1789 01:15:56.760 --> 01:15:59.520 a drill to drill something means to 1790 01:15:59.520 --> 01:16:02.340 repeat a lot so you might hear this word 1791 01:16:02.340 --> 01:16:05.100 used for like uh like Sports and Fitness 1792 01:16:05.100 --> 01:16:07.979 like you drill a skill you which means 1793 01:16:07.979 --> 01:16:09.780 to practice something a lot and 1794 01:16:09.780 --> 01:16:12.540 intensively so if you know that there's 1795 01:16:12.540 --> 01:16:14.640 like the th sound is really difficult 1796 01:16:14.640 --> 01:16:17.460 for you maybe take 10 minutes and do a 1797 01:16:17.460 --> 01:16:19.860 pronunciation drill on those sounds for 1798 01:16:19.860 --> 01:16:21.659 you know every

--> 01:16:36.620 sound repeatedly or maybe reading a text 1805 01:16:36.620 --> 01:16:39.659 out loud that has a lot of that kind of 1806 01:16:39.659 --> 01:16:42.300 pronunciation I think you can

01:26:10.860 be struggling with something or they 2033 01:26:10.860 --> 01:26:12.659 might have some kind of challenge or 2034 01:26:12.659 --> 01:26:15.238 maybe some kind of problem it's kind of 2035 01:26:15.238 --> 01:26:17.159 used to say like do you want to talk 2036 01:26:17.159 --> 01:26:18.719 about something or do you want to 2037 01:26:18.719 --> 01:26:21.120 discuss something you could use it if 2038 01:26:21.120 --> 01:26:23.159 you're concerned you can also just use 2039 01:26:23.159 --> 01:26:25.198 it as like an everyday greeting like hey 2040 01:26:25.198 --> 01:26:27.780 how are you is everything going okay so 2041 01:26:27.780 --> 01:26:29.639 just to show that you're thinking of the 2042 01:26:29.639 --> 01:26:31.800 other person's life but yeah if you use 2043 01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:34.020 a more concerned tone with this like is 2044 01:26:34.020 --> 01:26:36.300 everything going okay you can show that 2045 01:26:36.300 --> 01:26:38.460 you've maybe noticed something about the 2046 01:26:38.460 --> 01:26:40.620 other person too you might want to show 2047 01:26:40.620 --> 01:26:42.719 it's okay to talk about it so 2048 01:26:42.719 --> 01:26:44.340 depending on your intonation you can 2049 01:26:44.340 --> 01:26:46.020 communicate some different ideas with 2050 01:26:46.020 --> 01:26:47.040 this 2051 01:26:47.040 --> 01:26:49.439 all right on to the next one 2052 01:26:49.439 --> 01:26:52.020 you won't believe this 2053 01:26:52.020 --> 01:26:54.600 you won't believe this 2054 01:26:54.600 --> 01:26:56.880 okay you won't believe this is used 2055 01:26:56.880 --> 01:26:59.280 before you share ex like some kind of 2056 01:26:59.280 --> 01:27:01.139 surprising information or exciting 2057 01:27:01.139 --> 01:27:03.840 information you might also hear you're 2058 01:27:03.840 --> 01:27:05.760 not gonna believe this which is a 2059 01:27:05.760 --> 01:27:08.040 reduced form of you are not going to 2060 01:27:08.040 --> 01:27:10.500 believe this you won't believe this but 2061 01:27:10.500 --> 01:27:13.439 is very common so it's like saying I 2062 01:27:13.439 --> 01:27:15.719 have something so surprising that you 2063 01:27:15.719 --> 01:27:18.179 probably will not believe the 2064 01:27:18.179 --> 01:27:21.780 information but here it is so you can 2065 01:27:21.780 --> 01:27:23.639 share something surprising or exciting 2066 01:27:23.639 --> 01:27:27.600 with this phrase okay onward next is 2067 01:27:27.600 --> 01:27:30.600 I haven't seen you for ages 2068 01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:33.360 I haven't seen you for ages 2069 01:27:33.360 --> 01:27:35.939 okay so use this expression instead of 2070 01:27:35.939 --> 01:27:38.159 long time no see or you can use them 2071 01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:40.080 together like a long time though seeing 2072 01:27:40.080 --> 01:27:43.738 I haven't seen you for ages so an age is 2073 01:27:43.738 --> 01:27:47.639 a very long time the word age so ages is 2074 01:27:47.639 --> 01:27:50.340 therefore a very very long time multiple 2075 01:27:50.340 --> 01:27:52.979 ages So when you say I haven't seen you 2076 01:27:52.979 --> 01:27:55.500 for ages it means I haven't seen you in 2077 01:27:55.500 --> 01:27:57.659 a very long time you use this as a 2078 01:27:57.659 --> 01:28:00.179 greeting as I said hey long time no see 2079 01:28:00.179 --> 01:28:02.219 I haven't seen

them you 2086 01:28:17.040 --> 01:28:19.139 should respond with something that shows 2087 01:28:19.139 --> 01:28:21.179 you understand their point of view say 2088 01:28:21.179 --> 01:28:24.060 that's terrible or that's awful or 2089 01:28:24.060 --> 01:28:27.120 that's too bad so terrible means very 2090 01:28:27.120 --> 01:28:29.639 bad so if you want to sound like you 2091 01:28:29.639 -->

outside just refers to the 2137 01:30:20.340 --> 01:30:22.560 weather so you can use any kind of 2138 01:30:22.560 --> 01:30:24.719 weather and follow it with isn't it you 2139 01:30:24.719 -->

01:30:45.659 today would also be okay so you're just 2148 01:30:45.659 --> 01:30:47.520 starting a conversation by talking about 2149 01:30:47.520 --> 01:30:49.260 the weather and finding a small point 2150 01:30:49.260 --> 01:30:52.500 you can both agree upon okay on to the 2151 01:30:52.500 --> 01:30:54.238 next expression 2152 01:30:54.238 --> 01:30:57.600 next is have you been waiting long 2153 01:30:57.600 --> 01:31:00.360 have you been waiting long 2154 01:31:00.360 --> 01:31:03.120 use have you been waiting long when you 2155 01:31:03.120 --> 01:31:06.120 are supposed to meet another

so if you for example were supposed 2159 01:31:14.460 --> 01:31:17.520 to meet at one o'clock and you arrive at 2160 01:31:17.520 --> 01:31:19.560 1 15 you might say to the other person 2161 01:31:19.560 --> 01:31:21.960 have you been waiting long so you don't 2162 01:31:21.960 --> 01:31:23.460 know how long that person has been 2163 01:31:23.460 --> 01:31:25.139 waiting maybe they got there 15 minutes 2164 01:31:25.139 --> 01:31:27.300 early you're showing that you have 2165 01:31:27.300 --> 01:31:29.159 concern for their time with this 2166 01:31:29.159 --> 01:31:30.719 expression have you been waiting long 2167 01:31:30.719 --> 01:31:31.738 sorry 2168 01:31:31.738 --> 01:31:37.020 okay next is it's good to have you here 2169 01:31:37.020 --> 01:31:40.080 it's good to have you here 2170 01:31:40.080 --> 01:31:42.600 use this expression when you're hosting 2171 01:31:42.600 --> 01:31:44.760 a party hosting an event or maybe you 2172 01:31:44.760 --> 01:31:46.979 have a guest in your office someone 2173 01:31:46.979 --> 01:31:49.800 who's not usually around is in your 2174 01:31:49.800 --> 01:31:51.960 circle for the day you can say it's good 2175 01:31:51.960 --> 01:31:53.760 to have you here or it's nice to have 2176 01:31:53.760 --> 01:31:56.400 you here that shows that you recognize 2177 01:31:56.400 --> 01:31:58.560 that they are a new person but you want 2178 01:31:58.560 --> 01:32:00.659 them to feel welcome it's good to have 2179 01:32:00.659 --> 01:32:02.400 you here you could use this at a house 2180 01:32:02.400 --> 01:32:05.159 party at dinner event and so on okay 2181 01:32:05.159 --> 01:32:07.800 next expression is 2182 01:32:07.800 --> 01:32:10.260 what brings you here 2183 01:32:10.260 --> 01:32:12.540 what brings you here 2184 01:32:12.540 --> 01:32:15.540 okay so this question is a much softer 2185 01:32:15.540 --> 01:32:18.238 way of saying why are you here so if you 2186 01:32:18.238 --> 01:32:20.280 say why are you here it might sound a 2187 01:32:20.280 --> 01:32:23.159 little too direct instead say what 2188 01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:26.100 brings you here you could say maybe why 2189 01:32:26.100 --> 01:32:28.439 did you decide to come to this event if 2190 01:32:28.439 --> 01:32:30.420 you want or you could ask what brings 2191 01:32:30.420 --> 01:32:33.479 you here today specifically so these are 2192 01:32:33.479 --> 01:32:35.698 all ways to say why did you come here 2193 01:32:35.698 --> 01:32:37.920 but they sound much softer and less 2194 01:32:37.920 --> 01:32:40.439 aggressive okay on to the next 2195 01:32:40.439 --> 01:32:42.300 expression 2196 01:32:42.300 --> 01:32:45.000 do you mind me asking 2197 01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:47.880 do you mind me asking 2198 01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:50.939 okay do you mind me asking is used 2199 01:32:50.939 --> 01:32:54.659 before a topic before a question that 2200 01:32:54.659 --> 01:32:57.420 might be a little bit sensitive so if 2201 01:32:57.420

people will ask you 2532 01:46:20.880 --> 01:46:24.659 where are you from first though where 2533 01:46:24.659 --> 01:46:28.500 are you from can mean many things it can 2534 01:46:28.500 --> 01:46:31.800 mean what city are you from or what 2535 01:46:31.800 --> 01:46:35.520 state are you from in fact Americans ask 2536 01:46:35.520 --> 01:46:37.920 this question to each other all the time 2537 01:46:37.920 --> 01:46:40.679 to learn what part of America the other 2538 01:46:40.679 --> 01:46:44.219 person comes from of course though it 2539 01:46:44.219 --> 01:46:47.280 can also mean what country are you from 2540 01:46:47.280 --> 01:46:49.320 if you want to answer this question 2541 01:46:49.320 --> 01:46:52.698 there are two ways to do it you can say 2542 01:46:52.698 --> 01:46:57.300 I'm plus your nationality as in I'm 2543 01:46:57.300 --> 01:47:01.260 Japanese or I'm Brazilian 2544 01:47:01.260 --> 01:47:05.698 or you can say I'm from plus the country 2545 01:47:05.698 --> 01:47:10.800 you are from as in I'm From Italy or I'm 2546 01:47:10.800 --> 01:47:12.238 from Thailand 2547 01:47:12.238 --> 01:47:15.119 if you're from a really famous city or 2548 01:47:15.119 --> 01:47:17.939 place you can say that too 2549 01:47:17.939 --> 01:47:22.500 for example I'm from Beijing or I'm from 2550 01:47:22.500 --> 01:47:26.100 New Delhi many times though Americans 2551 01:47:26.100 --> 01:47:29.460 won't ask what country are you from or 2552 01:47:29.460 --> 01:47:31.800 even where are you from 2553 01:47:31.800 --> 01:47:34.860 in many casual situations they will say 2554 01:47:34.860 --> 01:47:37.920 it in a simpler way where are you from 2555 01:47:37.920 --> 01:47:41.639 this is just like where are you from but 2556 01:47:41.639 --> 01:47:45.238 they take out we are where are you from 2557 01:47:45.238 --> 01:47:47.580 you can use this too in casual 2558 01:47:47.580 --> 01:47:49.020 situations 2559 01:47:49.020 --> 01:47:52.500 of course in the United States as in 2560 01:47:52.500 --> 01:47:55.380 other parts of the world people may be a 2561 01:47:55.380 --> 01:47:57.479 little more indirect because they want 2562 01:47:57.479 --> 01:47:58.920 to be polite 2563 01:47:58.920 --> 01:48:02.159 to do this they might ask you if you are 2564 01:48:02.159 --> 01:48:04.560 from the place where they meet you 2565 01:48:04.560 --> 01:48:07.979 for example if you meet someone in New 2566 01:48:07.979 --> 01:48:11.159 York they might ask are you from New 2567 01:48:11.159 --> 01:48:14.939 York or if you are in San Diego they 2568 01:48:14.939 --> 01:48:17.820 might ask are you from San Diego 2569 01:48:17.820 --> 01:48:21.000 many parts of the United States are very 2570 01:48:21.000 --> 01:48:23.820 Multicultural so asking the question 2571 01:48:23.820 --> 01:48:26.760 this way avoids what could be an 2572 01:48:26.760 --> 01:48:29.760 embarrassing mistake you can answer this 2573 01:48:29.760 --> 01:48:32.520 the same way you answer where are you 2574 01:48:32.520 --> 01:48:33.479 from 2575 01:48:33.479 --> 01:48:37.679 just add a simple no in front for 2576 01:48:37.679 --> 01:48:42.420 example you can say no plus I'm plus 2577 01:48:42.420 --> 01:48:44.040 nationality 2578 01:48:44.040 --> 01:48:50.100 no I'm French or no plus I'm from plus 2579 01:48:50.100 --> 01:48:51.479 country 2580 01:48:51.479 --> 01:48:54.600 no I'm from Russia 2581 01:48:54.600 --> 01:48:57.900 now it's time for Alicia's advice 2582 01:48:57.900 --> 01:49:00.479 since the United States is very large 2583 01:49:00.479 --> 01:49:03.840 People You Meet may take great pride in 2584 01:49:03.840 --> 01:49:06.960 the place or region they come from if 2585 01:49:06.960 --> 01:49:09.179 you ask someone about where they're from 2586 01:49:09.179 --> 01:49:12.060 they may respond by saying something 2587 01:49:12.060 --> 01:49:16.139 like West Coast or the East Coast or 2588 01:49:16.139 --> 01:49:20.639 California or the South or the Midwest 2589 01:49:20.639 --> 01:49:23.580 if they answer in this way it usually 2590 01:49:23.580 --> 01:49:25.619 means they are interested in talking 2591 01:49:25.619 --> 01:49:28.320 more about their region and how it 2592 01:49:28.320 --> 01:49:30.119 differs from others 2593 01:49:30.119 --> 01:49:32.820 in this lesson we learned some different 2594

--> 01:50:53.820 probably one of the first questions you 2614 01:50:53.820 --> 01:50:55.500 learned when you started studying 2615 01:50:55.500 --> 01:50:59.159 English I have to tell you though that 2616 01:50:59.159 --> 01:51:01.439 most native speakers of English would 2617 01:51:01.439 --> 01:51:02.939 never say this 2618 01:51:02.939 --> 01:51:05.880 in English just like in other languages 2619 01:51:05.880 --> 01:51:09.179 it is often more polite to be a little 2620 01:51:09.179 --> 01:51:13.260 indirect of course the easiest way to 2621 01:51:13.260 --> 01:51:16.198 avoid asking the question directly is to 2622 01:51:16.198 --> 01:51:17.698 not ask at all 2623 01:51:17.698 --> 01:51:20.580 just introduce yourself and most people 2624 01:51:20.580 --> 01:51:23.880 will respond by doing the same when 2625 01:51:23.880 --> 01:51:26.880 introducing yourself simple is nearly 2626 01:51:26.880 --> 01:51:31.619 always best just say hi I'm Alicia 2627 01:51:31.619 --> 01:51:33.840 to show that you want to know the other 2628 01:51:33.840 --> 01:51:37.500 person's name just add and you at the 2629 01:51:37.500 --> 01:51:38.219 end 2630 01:51:38.219 --> 01:51:42.179 hi I'm Alicia and you 2631 01:51:42.179 --> 01:51:46.500 hi I'm Alicia and you 2632 01:51:46.500 --> 01:51:50.100 just like before take out my name Alicia 2633 01:51:50.100 --> 01:51:53.820 and put your name in its place after you 2634 01:51:53.820 --> 01:51:56.219 say this the other person will tell you 2635 01:51:56.219 --> 01:51:58.260 his or her name 2636 01:51:58.260 --> 01:52:01.080 okay now let's talk about an 2637 01:52:01.080 --> 01:52:03.300 embarrassing situation that happens to 2638 01:52:03.300 --> 01:52:06.238 everybody you have already met this 2639 01:52:06.238 --> 01:52:08.580 person once before but you have 2640 01:52:08.580 --> 01:52:11.460 forgotten their name the most polite 2641 01:52:11.460 --> 01:52:13.920 thing to do in this situation is to 2642 01:52:13.920 --> 01:52:16.560 apologize and ask again 2643 01:52:16.560 --> 01:52:19.139 there's a simple way to do this that's 2644 01:52:19.139 --> 01:52:22.560 also polite I'm sorry what was your name 2645 01:52:22.560 --> 01:52:23.880 again 2646 01:52:23.880 --> 01:52:28.080 I'm sorry what was your name again 2647 01:52:28.080 --> 01:52:31.439 this sentence is very similar to what's 2648 01:52:31.439 --> 01:52:34.560 your name but it has three important 2649 01:52:34.560 --> 01:52:36.360 differences 2650 01:52:36.360 --> 01:52:40.860 first we say I'm sorry a small apology 2651 01:52:40.860 --> 01:52:45.420 can go a long way after that we say what 2652 01:52:45.420 --> 01:52:48.540 was your name this is just like what is 2653 01:52:48.540 --> 01:52:52.198 your name but instead of is we use the 2654 01:52:52.198 --> 01:52:55.619 past tense was this is really important 2655 01:52:55.619 --> 01:52:58.080 as it tells the other person that you 2656 01:52:58.080 --> 01:53:00.360 remember meeting them you haven't 2657 01:53:00.360 --> 01:53:03.600 forgotten him or her you have just 2658 01:53:03.600 --> 01:53:06.840 forgotten the name this little word 2659 01:53:06.840 --> 01:53:10.560 makes all the difference I'm sorry what 2660 01:53:10.560 --> 01:53:14.639 was your name finally we add again to 2661 01:53:14.639 --> 01:53:15.600 the end 2662 01:53:15.600 --> 01:53:18.238 this is another hint that tells the 2663 01:53:18.238 --> 01:53:20.580 other person that you remember learning 2664 01:53:20.580 --> 01:53:23.520 his or her name before but you just 2665 01:53:23.520 --> 01:53:27.238 can't recall it right now I'm sorry what 2666 01:53:27.238 --> 01:53:28.738 was your name again 2667 01:53:28.738 --> 01:53:31.139 this phrase is appropriate for both 2668 01:53:31.139 --> 01:53:34.500 formal and informal situations 2669 01:53:34.500 --> 01:53:38.340 now it's time for Alicia's advice in the 2670 01:53:38.340 --> 01:53:40.500 United States it's normal to address 2671 01:53:40.500 --> 01:53:43.198 people by name in conversation more than 2672 01:53:43.198 --> 01:53:46.320 once in both formal and informal 2673 01:53:46.320 --> 01:53:49.198 situations it's a way to show respect or 2674 01:53:49.198 --> 01:53:51.659 interest in the other person and can 2675 01:53:51.659 --> 01:53:54.900 help you make friends it is also a great 2676 01:53:54.900 --> 01:53:57.238 way to practice someone's name so you 2677 01:53:57.238 --> 01:53:59.520 don't forget it if you are talking to 2678 01:53:59.520 --> 01:54:02.580 someone named Anne for example instead 2679 01:54:02.580 --> 01:54:05.520 of just what do you do for fun you could 2680 01:54:05.520 --> 01:54:09.238 say and what do you do for fun you can 2681 01:54:09.238 --> 01:54:11.698 also put the name at the end of the 2682 01:54:11.698 --> 01:54:15.780 sentence what do you do for fun Anne you 2683 01:54:15.780 --> 01:54:17.820 don't want to say the person's name too 2684 01:54:17.820 --> 01:54:20.159 often or it will sound a little strange 2685 01:54:20.159 --> 01:54:22.979 but if you practice someone's name like 2686 01:54:22.979 --> 01:54:26.400 this you won't forget it and people love 2687 01:54:26.400 --> 01:54:28.560 to hear their own name 2688 01:54:28.560 --> 01:54:31.619 in this lesson we learned what to say 2689 01:54:31.619 --> 01:54:34.440 when we forget someone's name in the 2690 01:54:34.440 --> 01:54:36.719 next lesson you'll learn what to say 2691 01:54:36.719 --> 01:54:38.580 when you want to get in touch with 2692 01:54:38.580 --> 01:54:42.119 someone whether by telephone email or 2693 01:54:42.119 --> 01:54:44.880 even newer ways to communicate what's 2694 01:54:44.880 --> 01:54:47.100 your favorite let us know in the 2695 01:54:47.100 --> 01:54:49.619 comments and join us

01:55:31.860 answer common questions in English it's 2705 01:55:31.860 --> 01:55:34.440 really useful and it only takes three 2706 01:55:34.440 --> 01:55:37.560 minutes in this lesson you are going to 2707 01:55:37.560 --> 01:55:39.840 learn how to ask what someone's job is 2708 01:55:39.840 --> 01:55:43.679 in natural English of course you can 2709 01:55:43.679 --> 01:55:46.679 just say what is your job this is 2710 01:55:46.679 --> 01:55:49.139 correct English but it sounds too direct 2711 01:55:49.139 --> 01:55:51.659 and awkward native English speakers 2712 01:55:51.659 --> 01:55:54.000 almost never say this in a social 2713 01:55:54.000 --> 01:55:57.060 situation instead they use a different 2714 01:55:57.060 --> 01:56:00.060 question but before we master that we 2715 01:56:00.060 --> 01:56:02.219 need to compare it to a very similar 2716 01:56:02.219 --> 01:56:03.659 question 2717 01:56:03.659 --> 01:56:05.580 what are you doing 2718 01:56:05.580 --> 01:56:09.239 I'm presenting a video about English 2719 01:56:09.239 --> 01:56:11.100 what do you do 2720 01:56:11.100 --> 01:56:13.260 I'm an English teacher 2721 01:56:13.260 --> 01:56:15.900 do you see the difference these two 2722 01:56:15.900 --> 01:56:19.320 questions what are you doing and what do 2723 01:56:19.320 --> 01:56:22.500 you do sounds similar but mean different 2724 01:56:22.500 --> 01:56:23.699 things 2725 01:56:23.699 --> 01:56:26.280 the first one is asking what you are 2726 01:56:26.280 --> 01:56:29.280 doing right now this minute you answer 2727 01:56:29.280 --> 01:56:32.940 it using an ing verb what are you doing 2728 01:56:32.940 --> 01:56:36.840 I'm reading I'm watching TV 2729 01:56:36.840 --> 01:56:39.659 while the second is actually a shortened 2730 01:56:39.659 --> 01:56:42.659 version of what do you do for a living 2731 01:56:42.659 --> 01:56:45.840 this is how we ask what is your job in 2732 01:56:45.840 --> 01:56:48.360 natural English let's practice this 2733 01:56:48.360 --> 01:56:51.179 question what do you do 2734 01:56:51.179 --> 01:56:54.420 what do you do when native speakers of 2735 01:56:54.420 --> 01:56:56.880 English ask this question it can come 2736 01:56:56.880 --> 01:56:59.340 out very fast and sound more like what 2737 01:56:59.340 --> 01:57:00.420 do you do 2738 01:57:00.420 --> 01:57:03.420 in order to tell it apart from what are 2739 01:57:03.420 --> 01:57:06.420 you doing just listen for the in sound 2740 01:57:06.420 --> 01:57:09.480 on the end of the question if it's not 2741 01:57:09.480 --> 01:57:11.760 there then you're being asked what your 2742 01:57:11.760 --> 01:57:12.960 job is 2743 01:57:12.960 --> 01:57:15.199 so how would you answer this question 2744 01:57:15.199 --> 01:57:18.000 just think of it as if the other person 2745 01:57:18.000 --> 01:57:21.000 is asking you what is your job 2746 01:57:21.000 --> 01:57:24.780 you could answer with I am plus your job 2747 01:57:24.780 --> 01:57:26.940 I'm a

02:04:14.520 a bit slowly 2880 02:04:14.520 --> 02:04:16.860 this is not a complete sentence but has 2881 02:04:16.860 --> 02:04:19.199 a clear meaning when used after can you 2882 02:04:19.199 --> 02:04:20.699 say that again please 2883 02:04:20.699 --> 02:04:23.099 in response English speakers will slow 2884 02:04:23.099 --> 02:04:24.659 their speech down 2885 02:04:24.659 --> 02:04:27.719 now you try say the phrase after Gustavo 2886 02:04:27.719 --> 02:04:30.780 says can you say that again please 2887 02:04:30.780 --> 02:04:34.460 can you say that again please 2888 02:04:39.300 --> 02:04:41.580 a bit slowly 2889 02:04:41.580 --> 02:04:44.159 after Gustavo said Henry's name Henry 2890 02:04:44.159 --> 02:04:46.320 confirmed he said it correctly how did 2891 02:04:46.320 --> 02:04:48.000 he do that 2892 02:04:48.000 --> 02:04:49.860 that's it 2893 02:04:49.860 --> 02:04:51.780 that's it 2894 02:04:51.780 --> 02:04:54.659 this is like saying that's correct but 2895 02:04:54.659 --> 02:04:56.880 since the situation was friendly that's 2896 02:04:56.880 --> 02:04:59.159 it sounded more natural 2897 02:04:59.159 --> 02:05:02.159 now you try say the phrase after Gustavo 2898 02:05:02.159 --> 02:05:04.320 says Henry's name correctly 2899 02:05:04.320 --> 02:05:07.940 Henry Eddins 2900 02:05:12.540 --> 02:05:15.380 that's it 2901 02:05:15.960 --> 02:05:18.540 now the lesson Focus here's how to 2902 02:05:18.540 --> 02:05:20.099 introduce yourself 2903 02:05:20.099 --> 02:05:22.580 ready 2904 02:05:23.760 --> 02:05:25.679 do you remember how Gustavo introduced 2905 02:05:25.679 --> 02:05:27.599 himself 2906 02:05:27.599 --> 02:05:32.159 hi how do you do I'm Gustavo 2907 02:05:32.159 --> 02:05:34.500 when Gustavo introduced himself he 2908 02:05:34.500 --> 02:05:37.199 started with Hi and then used a set 2909 02:05:37.199 --> 02:05:39.179 phrase 2910 02:05:39.179 --> 02:05:41.900 how do you do 2911 02:05:41.900 --> 02:05:45.599 how do you do 2912 02:05:45.599 --> 02:05:47.940 this is a polite expression people often 2913 02:05:47.940 --> 02:05:50.159 use with an introduction it sounds like 2914 02:05:50.159 --> 02:05:52.139 a question but it has no particular 2915 02:05:52.139 --> 02:05:54.119 meaning and there's no expectation the 2916 02:05:54.119 --> 02:05:56.760 other person will try to answer it 2917 02:05:56.760 --> 02:05:59.340 next he says 2918 02:05:59.340 --> 02:06:01.619 I'm Gustavo 2919 02:06:01.619 --> 02:06:03.480 the first part of this sentence is a 2920 02:06:03.480 --> 02:06:06.960 contraction of two words I and am the am 2921 02:06:06.960 --> 02:06:09.179 here functions like an equal sign in 2922 02:06:09.179 --> 02:06:10.739 math 2923 02:06:10.739 --> 02:06:12.000 I'm 2924 02:06:12.000 --> 02:06:13.560 I'm 2925 02:06:13.560 --> 02:06:16.920 the next word in the sentence is a name 2926 02:06:16.920 --> 02:06:18.719 Gustavo 2927 02:06:18.719 --> 02:06:20.520 together it's 2928

plus your name 2932 02:06:30.360 --> 02:06:33.060 now you try imagine your name is John 2933 02:06:33.060 --> 02:06:38.960 say hi how do you do I'm John 2934 02:06:43.560 --> 02:06:47.520 hi how do

a shortcut 2941 02:07:17.159 --> 02:07:18.960 for giving your name 2942 02:07:18.960 --> 02:07:20.639 just drop the I'm from the final 2943 02:07:20.639 --> 02:07:23.219 sentence of the self-introduction 2944 02:07:23.219 --> 02:07:26.699 for example if Gustavo just said 2945 02:07:26.699 --> 02:07:30.239 hi how do you do Gustavo 2946 02:07:30.239 --> 02:07:32.099 Henry would have

2950 02:07:36.599 --> 02:07:38.820 handshake while saying this 2951 02:07:38.820 --> 02:07:41.340 in very casual situations you can even 2952 02:07:41.340 --> 02:07:45.239 drop the hi and the how do you do 2953 02:07:45.239 --> 02:07:47.820 all that is left would be your name 2954 02:07:47.820 --> 02:07:49.980 the second thing you need to know is you 2955 02:07:49.980 --> 02:07:52.800 can use I'm

2962 02:08:05.760 --> 02:08:08.340 it also gives you less privacy for 2963 02:08:08.340 --> 02:08:10.260 example if people know both your first 2964 02:08:10.260 --> 02:08:12.360 and last name they can find you on the 2965 02:08:12.360 --> 02:08:14.099 internet more easily 2966 02:08:14.099 --> 02:08:16.380 so it may be more common for strangers 2967 02:08:16.380 --> 02:08:18.119 to say just their first name than people 2968 02:08:18.119 --> 02:08:20.699 meeting in a more friendly environment 2969 02:08:20.699 --> 02:08:23.099 next you'll learn how to tell people to 2970 02:08:23.099 --> 02:08:25.020 call you by a nickname just like Henry 2971 02:08:25.020 --> 02:08:27.119 did in the scene 2972 02:08:27.119 --> 02:08:29.699 but please call me Hank 2973 02:08:29.699 --> 02:08:33.119

makes 2977 02:08:39.719 --> 02:08:41.219 the transition to the rest of the 2978 02:08:41.219 --> 02:08:42.780 sentence smoother 2979 02:08:42.780 --> 02:08:44.880 Henry uses this to introduce a new piece 2980 02:08:44.880 --> 02:08:46.320 of information 2981 02:08:46.320 --> 02:08:48.179 and this information changes something 2982 02:08:48.179 --> 02:08:49.920 about what he said before 2983

--> 02:12:49.619 hi everybody my name is Alicia today 3058 02:12:49.619 --> 02:12:51.599 we're going to be talking about simple 3059 02:12:51.599 --> 02:12:54.119 past tense we're going to talk about how 3060 02:12:54.119 --> 02:12:56.940 to make simple past tense statements in 3061 02:12:56.940 --> 02:13:00.300 English so let's get started okay so 3062 02:13:00.300 --> 02:13:02.579 first let's talk about when we should 3063 02:13:02.579 --> 02:13:05.579 use the simple past tense simple past 3064 02:13:05.579 --> 02:13:08.520 tense statements for today are for 3065 02:13:08.520 --> 02:13:11.219 actions that started and ended in the 3066 02:13:11.219 --> 02:13:13.139 past so these are things that both 3067 02:13:13.139 --> 02:13:16.820 started or began and ended in the past 3068 02:13:16.820 --> 02:13:20.400 both of those must be true to use simple 3069 02:13:20.400 --> 02:13:23.760 past tense the second point for today is 3070 02:13:23.760 --> 02:13:26.219 these are actions which happened at a 3071 02:13:26.219 --> 02:13:29.099 specific point in time so a specific 3072 02:13:29.099 --> 02:13:32.880 point in time can be yesterday it can be 3073 02:13:32.880 --> 02:13:36.599 an hour ago it can be last year it can 3074 02:13:36.599 --> 02:13:39.540 be when you were a kid all of these are 3075 02:13:39.540 --> 02:13:42.239 a specific point in time but the key is 3076 02:13:42.239 --> 02:13:45.719 that we know when the action happened so 3077 02:13:45.719 --> 02:13:48.719 a specific point in time is 0.2 for this 3078 02:13:48.719 --> 02:13:50.219 grammar point 3079 02:13:50.219 --> 02:13:54.480 third we can use simple past tense for 3080 02:13:54.480 --> 02:13:56.880 repeated actions in the past so things 3081 02:13:56.880 --> 02:13:59.760 you did every week or every month or 3082 02:13:59.760 --> 02:14:02.699 every year every summer every hour if 3083 02:14:02.699 --> 02:14:05.760 you like but one point about this 3084 02:14:05.760 --> 02:14:08.159 make sure to include a frequency 3085 02:14:08.159 --> 02:14:10.500 indicator if you want to talk about an 3086 02:14:10.500 --> 02:14:12.139 action that repeated in the past 3087 02:14:12.139 --> 02:14:15.659 frequency indicator for example I just 3088 02:14:15.659 --> 02:14:18.000 mentioned a few every week every month 3089 02:14:18.000 --> 02:14:20.880 every year so frequency meaning how 3090 02:14:20.880 --> 02:14:24.060 often an indicator shows how often you 3091 02:14:24.060 --> 02:14:26.520 did that so you can use repeated actions 3092 02:14:26.520 --> 02:14:29.480 with past tense to show 3093 02:14:29.480 --> 02:14:32.400 let's see something you did a lot in the 3094 02:14:32.400 --> 02:14:35.179 past for example so to give you a visual 3095 02:14:35.179 --> 02:14:38.699 uh the past is down here now is this 3096 02:14:38.699 --> 02:14:42.599 point here and future is up here when we 3097 02:14:42.599 --> 02:14:45.420 use the simple past tense it's an action 3098 02:14:45.420 --> 02:14:48.840 that started and ended in the past 3099 02:14:48.840 --> 02:14:52.079 somewhere before now that's one 3100 02:14:52.079 --> 02:14:55.380 it's at a specific point in time so this 3101 02:14:55.380 --> 02:14:58.380 action and this action we know when they 3102 02:14:58.380 --> 02:15:00.420 happened it could be this morning it 3103 02:15:00.420 --> 02:15:03.360 could be yesterday for example but we 3104 02:15:03.360 --> 02:15:05.760 know when these actions happen 3105 02:15:05.760 --> 02:15:08.340 third we can use for repeated action so 3106 02:15:08.340 --> 02:15:10.760 maybe these actions repeat 3107 02:15:10.760 --> 02:15:14.040 but we know 3108 02:15:14.040 --> 02:15:16.619 when the repetition happened we know 3109 02:15:16.619 --> 02:15:19.380 when we repeated these actions so it's 3110 02:15:19.380 --> 02:15:22.020 okay to use simple past tense to 3111 02:15:22.020 --> 02:15:25.920 describe those okay so now we know uh 3112 02:15:25.920 --> 02:15:28.500 when we should use simple past tense we 3113 02:15:28.500 --> 02:15:30.780 know why we should use simple past tense 3114 02:15:30.780 --> 02:15:33.599 but how do we make simple past tense 3115 02:15:33.599 --> 02:15:36.780 statements so when you want to use the 3116 02:15:36.780 --> 02:15:39.719 simple past tense to explain an action 3117 02:15:39.719 --> 02:15:42.179 that happened in the past you need to 3118 02:15:42.179 --> 02:15:44.340 conjugate your verb you need to change 3119 02:15:44.340 --> 02:15:46.560 your verb so that means when you're 3120 02:15:46.560 --> 02:15:50.340 using a regular verb you do verb plus Ed 3121 02:15:50.340 --> 02:15:54.960 so verb plus e d is the basic form for 3122 02:15:54.960 --> 02:15:58.199 simple past tense verbs but keep in mind 3123 02:15:58.199 --> 02:16:01.139 this is only for regular verbs not all 3124 02:16:01.139 --> 02:16:03.239 verbs are regular verbs so for example 3125 02:16:03.239 --> 02:16:06.300 some common ones are talk which becomes 3126 02:16:06.300 --> 02:16:07.440 talked 3127 02:16:07.440 --> 02:16:10.380 start which becomes started and enjoy 3128 02:16:10.380 --> 02:16:13.079 which becomes enjoyed please be careful 3129 02:16:13.079 --> 02:16:15.300 however you'll notice that the past 3130 02:16:15.300 --> 02:16:17.940 tense form of verbs has a few different 3131 02:16:17.940 --> 02:16:20.520 pronunciations so for example start 3132 02:16:20.520 --> 02:16:24.300 becomes started it has an ID sound it's 3133 02:16:24.300 --> 02:16:27.900 not an E D sound but an ID sound you 3134 02:16:27.900 --> 02:16:30.599 might hear a word like walked also which 3135 02:16:30.599 --> 02:16:33.300 has a sort of T sound about it walk 3136 02:16:33.300 --> 02:16:36.240 becomes walked started becomes started 3137 02:16:36.240 --> 02:16:38.760 an ID sound and then there's also a 3138 02:16:38.760 --> 02:16:41.638 sound like in breathed a very soft D 3139 02:16:41.638 --> 02:16:44.459 sound so there are three past tense verb 3140 02:16:44.459 --> 02:16:47.820 sounds to listen for an ID sound started 3141 02:16:47.820 --> 02:16:51.599 a soft D sound like breathed and then a 3142 02:16:51.599 --> 02:16:54.599 more hard T sound like walked so pay 3143 02:16:54.599 --> 02:16:56.280 attention to that when you're trying to 3144 02:16:56.280 --> 02:16:59.459 make these past tense verb conjugations 3145 02:16:59.459 --> 02:17:01.559 okay but 3146 02:17:01.559 --> 02:17:04.500 some verbs are irregular verbs irregular 3147 02:17:04.500 --> 02:17:07.500 verbs do not have a simple rule for 3148 02:17:07.500 --> 02:17:10.679 understanding past tense conjugation how 3149 02:17:10.679 --> 02:17:13.379 to change them in past tense there's no 3150 02:17:13.379 --> 02:17:16.138 rule for these you simply have to 3151 02:17:16.138 --> 02:17:18.959 practice you have to remember them read 3152 02:17:18.959 --> 02:17:21.540 them listen to them until you can 3153 02:17:21.540 --> 02:17:24.179 remember the correct conjugation the 3154 02:17:24.179 --> 02:17:26.280 correct way to change these verbs into 3155 02:17:26.280 --> 02:17:29.280 the past tense so for example some 3156 02:17:29.280 --> 02:17:32.240 common ones are eat which becomes eight 3157 02:17:32.240 --> 02:17:36.959 speak becomes spoke and make becomes 3158 02:17:36.959 --> 02:17:40.080 made if you see a verb somewhere that 3159 02:17:40.080 --> 02:17:42.120 that seems a little odd or you're not 3160 02:17:42.120 --> 02:17:44.700 sure what these present tense form would 3161 02:17:44.700 --> 02:17:46.979 be you can check a dictionary and try to 3162 02:17:46.979 --> 02:17:49.500 remember it from there so now we've 3163 02:17:49.500 --> 02:17:51.899 talked about simple past tense irregular 3164 02:17:51.899 --> 02:17:54.660 and regular verbs let's try to use them 3165 02:17:54.660 --> 02:17:56.760 to make some sentences I prepared a few 3166 02:17:56.760 --> 02:18:00.000 example sentences so let's take a look 3167 02:18:00.000 --> 02:18:02.340 okay first sentence he something 3168 02:18:02.340 --> 02:18:05.519 something a towel and sunglasses to the 3169 02:18:05.519 --> 02:18:08.099 beach so the verb here is bring I want 3170 02:18:08.099 --> 02:18:10.979 to use the verb bring bring however is 3171 02:18:10.979 --> 02:18:14.099 an irregular verb so I can't use the Ed 3172 02:18:14.099 --> 02:18:16.859 rule for regular verbs the correct 3173 02:18:16.859 --> 02:18:20.840 conjugation is brought 3174 02:18:21.019 --> 02:18:23.760 b-r-o-u-g-h-t he brought a towel and 3175 02:18:23.760 --> 02:18:25.979 sunglasses to the beach this is the 3176 02:18:25.979 --> 02:18:28.260 correct conjugation here so bring is an 3177 02:18:28.260 --> 02:18:30.780 irregular verb okay 3178 02:18:30.780 --> 02:18:32.700 let's go to the next sentence they 3179 02:18:32.700 --> 02:18:35.218 something something to the gym every day 3180 02:18:35.218 --> 02:18:38.638 last week so here I'm showing you a 3181 02:18:38.638 --> 02:18:40.859 repeated action here I'm using every day 3182 02:18:40.859 --> 02:18:43.559 this is a frequency indicator how often 3183 02:18:43.559 --> 02:18:46.679 did I do that action and last week shows 3184 02:18:46.679 --> 02:18:49.920 the specific point in time so I'm using 3185 02:18:49.920 --> 02:18:53.760 both of these two points in addition to 3186 02:18:53.760 --> 02:18:56.099 a simple pass the basic simple past 3187 02:18:56.099 --> 02:18:58.379 structure here so the verb that we want 3188 02:18:58.379 --> 02:19:01.379 to use here is go but go is an irregular 3189 02:19:01.379 --> 02:19:05.399 verb so we can't use goad for example go 3190 02:19:05.399 --> 02:19:08.218 changes to went in the past tense so 3191 02:19:08.218 --> 02:19:10.740 went is the correct answer for this 3192 02:19:10.740 --> 02:19:12.780 sentence here okay 3193 02:19:12.780 --> 02:19:15.240 let's try the next one I something 3194 02:19:15.240 --> 02:19:18.240 something to tell my boss about my 3195 02:19:18.240 --> 02:19:21.240 schedule so the verb I want to use here 3196 02:19:21.240 --> 02:19:24.718 is forget forget is a very useful word I 3197 02:19:24.718 --> 02:19:27.359 think to remember but again forget is 3198 02:19:27.359 --> 02:19:29.700 not a regular verb forget is an 3199 02:19:29.700 --> 02:19:32.820 irregular verb so we cannot use the Ed 3200 02:19:32.820 --> 02:19:35.760 form forget in the past tense it becomes 3201 02:19:35.760 --> 02:19:37.859 forgot 3202 02:19:37.859 --> 02:19:39.718 okay 3203 02:19:39.718 --> 02:19:42.899 so I forgot to tell my boss about my 3204 02:19:42.899 --> 02:19:44.879 schedule is the correct sentence here 3205 02:19:44.879 --> 02:19:47.638 all right let's go to something a little 3206 02:19:47.638 --> 02:19:49.800 bit different uh here's a negative 3207 02:19:49.800 --> 02:19:52.560 sentence I don't think they something 3208 02:19:52.560 --> 02:19:55.080 something a reservation at the 3209 02:19:55.080 --> 02:19:58.260 restaurant okay so here I'm using a 3210 02:19:58.260 --> 02:20:00.899 phrase I want to use the phrase make a 3211 02:20:00.899 --> 02:20:03.959 reservation to make a reservation so the 3212 02:20:03.959 --> 02:20:06.479 verb here is make this was one of my 3213 02:20:06.479 --> 02:20:09.540 example verbs for The Irregular form so 3214 02:20:09.540 --> 02:20:13.740 make becomes made I don't think 3215 02:20:13.740 --> 02:20:16.560 they made a reservation at the 3216 02:20:16.560 --> 02:20:19.320 restaurant is the correct verb form to 3217 02:20:19.320 --> 02:20:22.379 use here all right uh the next sentence 3218 02:20:22.379 --> 02:20:24.899 we something something junk food almost 3219 02:20:24.899 --> 02:20:28.080 every day last month so here again I 3220 02:20:28.080 --> 02:20:31.800 have every day but I have almost here so 3221 02:20:31.800 --> 02:20:34.680 almost every day not every day but close 3222 02:20:34.680 --> 02:20:37.859 to every day and then last month last 3223 02:20:37.859 --> 02:20:40.560 month is my specific point in time in 3224 02:20:40.560 --> 02:20:42.240 this case so 3225 02:20:42.240 --> 02:20:44.520 here we have junk food that means that 3226 02:20:44.520 --> 02:20:46.979 the verb we want to use is probably eat 3227 02:20:46.979 --> 02:20:49.080 and we learned that eat 3228 02:20:49.080 --> 02:20:52.319 is an irregular verb there's no rule for 3229 02:20:52.319 --> 02:20:55.140 conjugating this we just know that eat 3230 02:20:55.140 --> 02:20:57.840 becomes eight we ate junk food almost 3231 02:20:57.840 --> 02:20:59.700 every day last month 3232 02:20:59.700 --> 02:21:04.800 great okay so next sentence uh has two 3233 02:21:04.800 --> 02:21:08.280 spaces for verbs actually okay so the 3234 02:21:08.280 --> 02:21:10.080 next sentence that I've prepared I 3235 02:21:10.080 --> 02:21:12.000 included because a lot of my students 3236 02:21:12.000 --> 02:21:15.240 ask about how to report information when 3237 02:21:15.240 --> 02:21:17.939 you want to report information share 3238 02:21:17.939 --> 02:21:20.520 something that you heard from a friend a 3239 02:21:20.520 --> 02:21:22.979 past tense action you need to conjugate 3240 02:21:22.979 --> 02:21:25.620 the reporting verb for example say 3241 02:21:25.620 --> 02:21:29.280 becomes said or hear becomes heard you 3242 02:21:29.280 --> 02:21:31.500 need to conjugate this verb and you need 3243 02:21:31.500 --> 02:21:33.720 to conjugate the information that you 3244 02:21:33.720 --> 02:21:36.000 heard so there are two past tense 3245 02:21:36.000 --> 02:21:38.399 conjugations that should happen when you 3246 02:21:38.399 --> 02:21:41.220 report information let's take a look 3247 02:21:41.220 --> 02:21:43.859 so here we have she something something 3248 02:21:43.859 --> 02:21:47.459 she something something a great time at 3249 02:21:47.459 --> 02:21:50.879 the party so here she blah blah blah a 3250 02:21:50.879 --> 02:21:54.060 great time at the party so we use the 3251 02:21:54.060 --> 02:21:57.359 Expression to have a great time to have 3252 02:21:57.359 --> 02:22:00.420 a great time again have is an irregular 3253 02:22:00.420 --> 02:22:06.200 verb so we conjugate it to had she had 3254 02:22:06.300 --> 02:22:09.600 a great time at the party okay 3255 02:22:09.600 --> 02:22:12.300 but then to report your speech so 3256 02:22:12.300 --> 02:22:15.959 someone gave you information past tense 3257 02:22:15.959 --> 02:22:19.620 give becomes gave you information uh so 3258 02:22:19.620 --> 02:22:22.080 the verb for giving information a 3259 02:22:22.080 --> 02:22:24.920 neutral way to pass information is say 3260 02:22:24.920 --> 02:22:28.260 so uh to conjugate say into the past 3261 02:22:28.260 --> 02:22:31.439 tense it's an irregular verb so we use 3262 02:22:31.439 --> 02:22:37.560 said say becomes said so she said 3263 02:22:37.560 --> 02:22:40.020 she had a great time at the party okay 3264 02:22:40.020 --> 02:22:42.600 please be careful of your pronunciation 3265 02:22:42.600 --> 02:22:45.720 with the word said a lot of people I've 3266 02:22:45.720 --> 02:22:49.080 heard use Sade Sade is not correct so 3267 02:22:49.080 --> 02:22:52.200 please use said it sounds like s-e-d the 3268 02:22:52.200 --> 02:22:56.100 pronunciation but it's said s-a-i-d is 3269 02:22:56.100 --> 02:22:58.979 the spelling say becomes said she said 3270 02:22:58.979 --> 02:23:02.220 she had a great time at the party okay 3271 02:23:02.220 --> 02:23:06.180 so last one okay so the last example 3272 02:23:06.180 --> 02:23:08.700 sentence for today includes spaces for a 3273 02:23:08.700 --> 02:23:10.859 few different verbs I included this 3274 02:23:10.859 --> 02:23:12.660 because I wanted to show you that you 3275 02:23:12.660 --> 02:23:14.340 can use a lot of different information 3276 02:23:14.340 --> 02:23:17.459 in one sentence just by connecting your 3277 02:23:17.459 --> 02:23:19.680 past tense verbs together so let's take 3278 02:23:19.680 --> 02:23:20.939 a look 3279 02:23:20.939 --> 02:23:23.640 okay yesterday I something something 3280 02:23:23.640 --> 02:23:26.280 late something something shopping and 3281 02:23:26.280 --> 02:23:29.760 something something to my mother okay so 3282 02:23:29.760 --> 02:23:31.500 the verbs I want to use for this 3283 02:23:31.500 --> 02:23:36.300 sentence are sleep go and speak sleep go 3284 02:23:36.300 --> 02:23:39.540 and speak these are all irregular verbs 3285 02:23:39.540 --> 02:23:41.939 there are no regular verbs in this 3286 02:23:41.939 --> 02:23:45.540 sentence so sleep in past tense becomes 3287 02:23:45.540 --> 02:23:47.399 slept 3288 02:23:47.399 --> 02:23:51.979 go and past tense becomes went 3289 02:23:52.140 --> 02:23:56.939 and speak in past tense becomes spoke 3290 02:23:56.939 --> 02:23:59.879 so here in one sentence I have I have 3291 02:23:59.879 --> 02:24:01.859 explained three things about my day 3292 02:24:01.859 --> 02:24:03.260 yesterday 3293 02:24:03.260 --> 02:24:06.959 I slept late I went shopping and I spoke 3294 02:24:06.959 --> 02:24:09.780 to my mother so you can explain a lot of 3295 02:24:09.780 --> 02:24:11.939 things with past tense and a few 3296 02:24:11.939 --> 02:24:14.100 connecting words in this case I've just 3297 02:24:14.100 --> 02:24:16.859 used and to connect the last two things 3298 02:24:16.859 --> 02:24:19.020 in this sentence so please keep this in 3299 02:24:19.020 --> 02:24:20.700 mind when you're sharing information 3300 02:24:20.700 --> 02:24:23.580 about your past events 3301 02:24:23.580 --> 02:24:25.920 so today we talked about the simple past 3302 02:24:25.920 --> 02:24:27.720 tense and we talked about how to 3303 02:24:27.720 --> 02:24:30.240 conjugate both regular and irregular 3304 02:24:30.240 --> 02:24:32.160 verbs it might seem a little bit 3305 02:24:32.160 --> 02:24:34.319 difficult to understand which verbs are 3306 02:24:34.319 --> 02:24:36.240 regular and which verbs are irregular 3307 02:24:36.240 --> 02:24:38.399 but with some practice it will become 3308 02:24:38.399 --> 02:24:40.920 easier so I hope that you enjoyed this 3309 02:24:40.920 --> 02:24:42.840 video if you have any questions or 3310 02:24:42.840 -->

it's really useful and it only 3325 02:25:32.160 --> 02:25:34.020 takes three minutes 3326 02:25:34.020 --> 02:25:36.720 in this lesson you are going to learn 3327 02:25:36.720 --> 02:25:38.939 how to ask what someone's hobbies are 3328 02:25:38.939 --> 02:25:42.120 without using the word Hobbies 3329 02:25:42.120 --> 02:25:45.120 you've probably seen the question do you 3330 02:25:45.120 --> 02:25:48.300 have any hobbies or what are your 3331 02:25:48.300 --> 02:25:51.080 hobbies in an English textbook before 3332 02:25:51.080 --> 02:25:54.840 however native English speakers almost 3333 02:25:54.840 --> 02:25:58.260 never use the word Hobbies when asking 3334 02:25:58.260 --> 02:26:01.680 about them a much more natural way to 3335 02:26:01.680 --> 02:26:04.800 ask the same question is what do you do 3336 02:26:04.800 --> 02:26:06.000 for fun 3337 02:26:06.000 --> 02:26:08.459 let's practice this question 3338 02:26:08.459 --> 02:26:10.979 what do you do for fun 3339 02:26:10.979 --> 02:26:14.040 what do you do for fun 3340 02:26:14.040 --> 02:26:17.220 you can also ask what do you do in your 3341 02:26:17.220 --> 02:26:18.780 free time 3342 02:26:18.780 --> 02:26:22.319 what do you do in your free time 3343 02:26:22.319 --> 02:26:24.920 so how would you answer this question 3344 02:26:24.920 --> 02:26:27.959 let's look at how native speakers would 3345 02:26:27.959 --> 02:26:31.800 do it the easiest way is to say I like 3346 02:26:31.800 --> 02:26:36.180 to or just I like followed by what you 3347 02:26:36.180 --> 02:26:39.479 like to do for example if you like 3348 02:26:39.479 --> 02:26:42.540 watching movies you could say I like to 3349 02:26:42.540 --> 02:26:46.560 watch movies or I like watching movies 3350 02:26:46.560 --> 02:26:50.520 I like to watch movies or I like 3351 02:26:50.520 --> 02:26:52.140 watching movies 3352 02:26:52.140 --> 02:26:55.620 and if you like golf you could say I 3353 02:26:55.620 --> 02:26:59.939 like to play golf or I like playing golf 3354 02:26:59.939 --> 02:27:03.540 I like to play golf or I like playing 3355 02:27:03.540 --> 02:27:06.840 golf you can emphasize how much you like 3356 02:27:06.840 --> 02:27:09.600 your hobby by adding a word like really 3357 02:27:09.600 --> 02:27:13.800 in front of like for example I really 3358 02:27:13.800 --> 02:27:16.680 like watching movies on the other hand 3359 02:27:16.680 --> 02:27:19.439 if you want to play Down how much you 3360 02:27:19.439 --> 02:27:23.220 like something you can say kind of for 3361 02:27:23.220 --> 02:27:27.000 example I kind of like playing tennis 3362 02:27:27.000 --> 02:27:30.720 now it's time for Alicia's advice if you 3363 02:27:30.720 --> 02:27:33.420 don't have any special Hobbies or don't 3364 02:27:33.420 -->

02:28:02.040 you from it doesn't even have a verb 3374 02:28:02.040 --> 02:28:05.160 we'll cover this and more in the next 3375 02:28:05.160 --> 02:28:07.920 English in three minutes lesson see you 3376 02:28:07.920 --> 02:28:10.340 next time 3377 02:28:10.560 --> 02:28:13.280 foreign 3378 02:28:23.459 --> 02:28:26.520 hi everybody my name is Alicia and today 3379 02:28:26.520 --> 02:28:29.459 I'm going to give a short explanation of 3380 02:28:29.459 --> 02:28:32.040 some basic uses of the present perfect 3381 02:28:32.040 --> 02:28:36.060 tense so let's begin okay the present 3382 02:28:36.060 --> 02:28:38.700 perfect tense what I'm going to talk 3383 02:28:38.700 --> 02:28:42.000 about today there are two basic points 3384 02:28:42.000 --> 02:28:44.100 to think about when using the present 3385 02:28:44.100 --> 02:28:46.800 perfect tense we use the present perfect 3386 02:28:46.800 --> 02:28:50.520 tense first number one to express a life 3387 02:28:50.520 --> 02:28:52.800 experience so this can be a life 3388 02:28:52.800 --> 02:28:56.640 experience you have had or a life 3389 02:28:56.640 --> 02:29:00.359 experience you have never had so we use 3390 02:29:00.359 --> 02:29:03.000 this grammar point to talk about life 3391 02:29:03.000 --> 02:29:07.740 experience but with one key nuance 3392 02:29:07.740 --> 02:29:11.220 this life experience it happened at a 3393 02:29:11.220 --> 02:29:14.580 non-specific or an unimportant point in 3394 02:29:14.580 --> 02:29:18.180 time so the point in time when this life 3395 02:29:18.180 --> 02:29:21.300 experience happened is not important in 3396 02:29:21.300 --> 02:29:23.160 this sentence in the sentence where you 3397 02:29:23.160 --> 02:29:25.740 use the present perfect tense the point 3398 02:29:25.740 --> 02:29:28.680 in time where you had the experience is 3399 02:29:28.680 --> 02:29:31.319 not the focus of your statement the 3400 02:29:31.319 --> 02:29:33.540 focus of your statement is just the life 3401 02:29:33.540 --> 02:29:36.959 experience so to give a visualization of 3402 02:29:36.959 --> 02:29:38.700 this on a timeline 3403 02:29:38.700 --> 02:29:41.520 with past present and future 3404 02:29:41.520 --> 02:29:44.520 the present perfect tense is used to 3405 02:29:44.520 --> 02:29:46.979 express a life experience at a 3406 02:29:46.979 --> 02:29:50.459 non-specific point in time meaning we 3407 02:29:50.459 --> 02:29:54.899 use it for some experience you had 3408 02:29:54.899 --> 02:29:58.500 at some point before the present some 3409 02:29:58.500 --> 02:30:01.859 point before the current conversation so 3410 02:30:01.859 --> 02:30:04.080 we use the present perfect tense to talk 3411 02:30:04.080 --> 02:30:06.479 about a life experience that happened at 3412 02:30:06.479 --> 02:30:10.140 a non-specific point in the past so when 3413 02:30:10.140 --> 02:30:12.959 specifically this experience happened is 3414 02:30:12.959 --> 02:30:15.780 not important this grammar Point allows 3415 02:30:15.780 --> 02:30:18.840 us to Simply say that we have or have 3416 02:30:18.840 --> 02:30:22.020 not had an experience so this is the 3417 02:30:22.020 --> 02:30:24.240 first grammar point about the present 3418 02:30:24.240 --> 02:30:26.340 perfect tense the simple use of the 3419 02:30:26.340 --> 02:30:28.080 present perfect tense 3420 02:30:28.080 --> 02:30:30.840 the next point I want to talk about 3421 02:30:30.840 --> 02:30:33.600 though is this second Point number two 3422 02:30:33.600 --> 02:30:37.140 here we use the present perfect tense to 3423 02:30:37.140 --> 02:30:40.020 talk about an action that started in the 3424 02:30:40.020 --> 02:30:43.620 past and continues to the present the 3425 02:30:43.620 --> 02:30:46.800 effect of an action that started in the 3426 02:30:46.800 --> 02:30:50.280 past continues to the present so this is 3427 02:30:50.280 --> 02:30:52.020 a grammar Point that's slightly 3428 02:30:52.020 --> 02:30:53.280 different 3429 02:30:53.280 --> 02:30:55.979 from number one that I talked about so 3430 02:30:55.979 --> 02:30:59.100 the image here is an action that started 3431 02:30:59.100 --> 02:31:01.800 at some point in the past it began at 3432 02:31:01.800 --> 02:31:04.740 some point in the past and it continues 3433 02:31:04.740 --> 02:31:07.080 to the present 3434 02:31:07.080 --> 02:31:09.420 or the effects of that action continue 3435 02:31:09.420 --> 02:31:12.060 to the present so this is something we 3436 02:31:12.060 --> 02:31:14.760 can use to talk about where we live our 3437 02:31:14.760 --> 02:31:18.120 studies our work experience for example 3438 02:31:18.120 --> 02:31:20.760 I'll show you in a couple of example 3439 02:31:20.760 --> 02:31:24.240 sentences a little bit later but this is 3440 02:31:24.240 --> 02:31:26.580 the second use the second grammar point 3441 02:31:26.580 --> 02:31:28.920 I want to talk a little bit about today 3442 02:31:28.920 --> 02:31:31.379 so it's important to note that when we 3443 02:31:31.379 --> 02:31:33.540 use this second point when we use the 3444 02:31:33.540 --> 02:31:35.819 second use of this grammar point we 3445 02:31:35.819 --> 02:31:38.760 often use the words for and since to 3446 02:31:38.760 --> 02:31:40.979 express that action that began in the 3447 02:31:40.979 --> 02:31:43.439 past and continued to the present it 3448 02:31:43.439 --> 02:31:44.700 gives the listener some extra 3449 02:31:44.700 --> 02:31:48.180 information about the duration about how 3450 02:31:48.180 --> 02:31:51.600 long that action has continued 3451 02:31:51.600 --> 02:31:54.899 so the difference between for and since 3452 02:31:54.899 --> 02:31:58.020 many people make a mistake with this so 3453 02:31:58.020 --> 02:32:00.120 use of for instance is important with 3454 02:32:00.120 --> 02:32:02.459 grammar Point number two here especially 3455 02:32:02.459 --> 02:32:04.500 because it gives the listener some 3456 02:32:04.500 --> 02:32:07.439 information about how long the action 3457 02:32:07.439 --> 02:32:11.040 has been happening so in an example 3458 02:32:11.040 --> 02:32:13.200 sentence you could say I have lived in 3459 02:32:13.200 --> 02:32:15.959 Paris for three years or you could say I 3460 02:32:15.959 --> 02:32:18.319 have lived in Paris since 3461 02:32:18.319 --> 02:32:22.680 2014. so you can hear four is used for a 3462 02:32:22.680 --> 02:32:25.500 period of time I have lived in Paris for 3463 02:32:25.500 --> 02:32:28.020 three years three years is a period of 3464 02:32:28.020 --> 02:32:30.600 time your period of time can be years 3465 02:32:30.600 --> 02:32:34.680 months days minutes hours and so on any 3466 02:32:34.680 --> 02:32:36.959 period of time can be used with the word 3467 02:32:36.959 --> 02:32:39.959 for I have been teaching this lesson for 3468 02:32:39.959 --> 02:32:42.479 a few minutes I have been standing up 3469 02:32:42.479 --> 02:32:45.780 for about an hour for example you can 3470 02:32:45.780 --> 02:32:48.000 use a different time duration for 3471 02:32:48.000 --> 02:32:50.040 different Expressions you can use this 3472 02:32:50.040 --> 02:32:53.040 actually a lot in your everyday life but 3473 02:32:53.040 --> 02:32:54.780 on the other hand let's talk about since 3474 02:32:54.780 --> 02:32:57.840 so since it's used for a point in time 3475 02:32:57.840 --> 02:33:00.000 when we want to talk about a point in 3476 02:33:00.000 --> 02:33:02.760 time where an action began where an 3477 02:33:02.760 --> 02:33:06.000 action started we can use since so for 3478 02:33:06.000 --> 02:33:08.280 example in my sentence I said I have 3479 02:33:08.280 --> 02:33:10.280 lived in Paris since 3480 02:33:10.280 --> 02:33:15.479 2014. so that since shows the exact year 3481 02:33:15.479 --> 02:33:18.720 when I started Living in Paris I have 3482 02:33:18.720 --> 02:33:22.620 lived in Paris since 2014 and the action 3483 02:33:22.620 --> 02:33:25.979 continues to the present so we can use 3484 02:33:25.979 --> 02:33:29.399 for and since to show when an action 3485 02:33:29.399 --> 02:33:32.700 began and we also know that that action 3486 02:33:32.700 --> 02:33:35.160 is going to be continuing that action 3487 02:33:35.160 --> 02:33:38.640 will continue to the present so these 3488 02:33:38.640 --> 02:33:40.500 are kind of the two grammar points I'd 3489 02:33:40.500 --> 02:33:43.500 like to talk about then lastly I want to 3490 02:33:43.500 --> 02:33:45.780 talk about how to make this grammar 3491 02:33:45.780 --> 02:33:47.700 Point how to make the present perfect 3492 02:33:47.700 --> 02:33:50.939 tense so I have three categories here 3493 02:33:50.939 --> 02:33:53.580 there's positive statements negative 3494 02:33:53.580 --> 02:33:56.220 statements and question statements these 3495 02:33:56.220 --> 02:33:58.560 are just the basic forms of these three 3496 02:33:58.560 --> 02:34:02.399 types of sentences so let's talk about a 3497 02:34:02.399 --> 02:34:04.379 few different sentence patterns that we 3498 02:34:04.379 --> 02:34:06.300 can make I have positive statements 3499 02:34:06.300 --> 02:34:08.340 negative statements and question 3500 02:34:08.340 --> 02:34:10.680 statements these are just a few examples 3501 02:34:10.680 --> 02:34:12.780 of the type of sentences and questions 3502 02:34:12.780 --> 02:34:15.000 that you can make with this grammar 3503 02:34:15.000 --> 02:34:17.399 point so first to make a positive 3504 02:34:17.399 --> 02:34:19.859 statement we'll use have or has 3505 02:34:19.859 --> 02:34:21.959 depending on your subject if your 3506 02:34:21.959 --> 02:34:24.300 subject is I for example we'll say I 3507 02:34:24.300 --> 02:34:28.200 have you have and we have for uh he and 3508 02:34:28.200 --> 02:34:31.800 she he has she has and so on so 3509 02:34:31.800 --> 02:34:33.660 depending on your subject we will use 3510 02:34:33.660 --> 02:34:37.800 have or has next we need to include the 3511 02:34:37.800 --> 02:34:40.979 past participle form of the verb so for 3512 02:34:40.979 --> 02:34:44.340 example I have lived in Paris lived is 3513 02:34:44.340 --> 02:34:46.740 the past participle form of the verb 3514 02:34:46.740 --> 02:34:51.660 live I have been to Paris so we can use 3515 02:34:51.660 --> 02:34:53.879 these past particles simple forms of 3516 02:34:53.879 --> 02:34:56.939 verbs bin in this case to talk about the 3517 02:34:56.939 --> 02:34:59.220 present perfect tense to use the present 3518 02:34:59.220 --> 02:35:01.620 perfect tense please try to remember 3519 02:35:01.620 --> 02:35:04.800 your past participle forms of verbs but 3520 02:35:04.800 --> 02:35:08.100 I find that one of the best ways to get 3521 02:35:08.100 --> 02:35:10.140 used to using the correct form of the 3522 02:35:10.140 --> 02:35:12.120 verb here is just practicing in 3523 02:35:12.120 --> 02:35:14.160 sentences it's a little bit difficult to 3524 02:35:14.160 --> 02:35:16.620 memorize all the verbs just from a list 3525 02:35:16.620 --> 02:35:19.379 so try practicing them in sentences to 3526 02:35:19.379 --> 02:35:20.520 remember 3527 02:35:20.520 --> 02:35:22.920 let's talk then about how to make a 3528 02:35:22.920 --> 02:35:25.140 negative statement so a life experience 3529 02:35:25.140 --> 02:35:28.560 you have not had this is the sentence 3530 02:35:28.560 --> 02:35:30.600 pattern that you can use to describe 3531 02:35:30.600 --> 02:35:33.240 that so again depending on your subject 3532 02:35:33.240 --> 02:35:38.100 use have or has I have he has and so on 3533 02:35:38.100 --> 02:35:41.879 next we'll include never so I have never 3534 02:35:41.879 --> 02:35:45.000 he has never they have never you have 3535 02:35:45.000 --> 02:35:49.020 never and so on so this never shows no 3536 02:35:49.020 --> 02:35:50.879 experience this is our negative 3537 02:35:50.879 --> 02:35:52.439 expression 3538 02:35:52.439 --> 02:35:55.560 then finally we'll include the past 3539 02:35:55.560 --> 02:35:58.260 participle form of the verb so I have 3540 02:35:58.260 --> 02:36:02.280 never eaten horse he has never visited 3541 02:36:02.280 --> 02:36:05.220 Italy and so on these make negative 3542 02:36:05.220 --> 02:36:07.800 statements with never 3543 02:36:07.800 --> 02:36:10.319 okay and finally a couple of different 3544 02:36:10.319 --> 02:36:12.840 question patterns that we can use there 3545 02:36:12.840 --> 02:36:15.000 are a lot of different questions yes and 3546 02:36:15.000 --> 02:36:18.240 no questions information questions let's 3547 02:36:18.240 --> 02:36:20.819 take a look at a simple one a simple yes 3548 02:36:20.819 --> 02:36:23.640 no pattern so again we begin with our 3549 02:36:23.640 --> 02:36:25.979 has and have depending on the subject 3550 02:36:25.979 --> 02:36:30.660 here so have you been for example with 3551 02:36:30.660 --> 02:36:34.439 the past participle verb has she seen 3552 02:36:34.439 --> 02:36:37.439 and so on so again we need to use this 3553 02:36:37.439 --> 02:36:39.959 past participle form of the verb when 3554 02:36:39.959 --> 02:36:41.640 making our questions 3555 02:36:41.640 --> 02:36:44.939 you might have heard people use ever I 3556 02:36:44.939 --> 02:36:48.359 have here at the bottom this ever in 3557 02:36:48.359 --> 02:36:51.060 this sentence style have you ever been 3558 02:36:51.060 --> 02:36:53.780 to France have you ever eaten something 3559 02:36:53.780 --> 02:36:58.020 this ever uh the the Nuance of this ever 3560 02:36:58.020 --> 02:37:02.580 is in your whole life experience so ever 3561 02:37:02.580 --> 02:37:05.819 kind of amplifies ever emphasizes the 3562 02:37:05.819 --> 02:37:08.040 importance of your life experience in 3563 02:37:08.040 --> 02:37:10.620 your entire life have you had the 3564 02:37:10.620 --> 02:37:13.939 experience of something this ever 3565 02:37:13.939 --> 02:37:17.340 emphasizes your entire life's experience 3566 02:37:17.340 --> 02:37:20.220 if you say for example have you seen 3567 02:37:20.220 --> 02:37:21.540 that movie 3568 02:37:21.540 --> 02:37:23.879 it sounds like maybe it's a recent movie 3569 02:37:23.879 --> 02:37:26.879 but if you say have you ever seen 3570 02:37:26.879 --> 02:37:29.819 such and such movie it sounds like maybe 3571 02:37:29.819 --> 02:37:32.640 the movie is a little bit older so 3572 02:37:32.640 --> 02:37:35.040 especially in cases where you'd like to 3573 02:37:35.040 --> 02:37:38.100 emphasize something that's not so recent 3574 02:37:38.100 --> 02:37:41.040 you might consider using ever in your 3575 02:37:41.040 --> 02:37:43.439 questions have you ever been to a 3576 02:37:43.439 --> 02:37:45.359 different country have you ever studied 3577 02:37:45.359 --> 02:37:48.780 something else so using ever shows that 3578 02:37:48.780 --> 02:37:50.700 maybe you're thinking something about 3579 02:37:50.700 --> 02:37:53.280 something a little bit further back a 3580 02:37:53.280 --> 02:37:55.740 little bit more in the past in someone's 3581 02:37:55.740 --> 02:37:59.280 life okay so now that we know this 3582 02:37:59.280 --> 02:38:01.560 let's take a look at a few example 3583 02:38:01.560 --> 02:38:05.520 sentences that I've prepared so first I 3584 02:38:05.520 --> 02:38:08.580 have they something something in Germany 3585 02:38:08.580 --> 02:38:11.540 so here I want to use the verb live live 3586 02:38:11.540 --> 02:38:15.120 so the past participle form of the verb 3587 02:38:15.120 --> 02:38:18.240 live is lived and my subject here is 3588 02:38:18.240 --> 02:38:23.280 they so I need to use they have lived 3589 02:38:23.280 --> 02:38:25.979 in Germany this is a very very simple 3590 02:38:25.979 --> 02:38:29.459 sentence they have lived in Germany I'm 3591 02:38:29.459 --> 02:38:32.160 using this simple structure this simple 3592 02:38:32.160 --> 02:38:34.560 grammar Point number one which we talked 3593 02:38:34.560 --> 02:38:37.439 about so this is just a life experience 3594 02:38:37.439 --> 02:38:40.200 when did they live in Germany we don't 3595 02:38:40.200 --> 02:38:43.200 know but it's just the experience that 3596 02:38:43.200 --> 02:38:45.840 we want to focus on in this sentence I 3597 02:38:45.840 --> 02:38:47.879 could change the sentence to say they 3598 02:38:47.879 --> 02:38:50.479 have lived in Germany since 3599 02:38:50.479 --> 02:38:53.459 1999 in that case 3600 02:38:53.459 --> 02:38:57.000 it means they live in Germany now also 3601 02:38:57.000 --> 02:38:59.879 however if they do not live in Germany 3602 02:38:59.879 --> 02:39:02.520 they only want to express their life 3603 02:39:02.520 --> 02:39:05.340 experience of living in Germany they 3604 02:39:05.340 --> 02:39:07.920 could say they have lived in Germany 3605 02:39:07.920 --> 02:39:10.439 they have lived in Germany only that 3606 02:39:10.439 --> 02:39:13.560 sentence so please be careful they have 3607 02:39:13.560 --> 02:39:16.740 lived in Germany since 1999 shows they 3608 02:39:16.740 --> 02:39:19.620 still live in Germany saying they have 3609 02:39:19.620 --> 02:39:23.100 lived in Germany shows only a life 3610 02:39:23.100 --> 02:39:24.600 experience 3611 02:39:24.600 --> 02:39:26.340 if you'd like to give more information 3612 02:39:26.340 --> 02:39:29.100 about where they live now do it in the 3613 02:39:29.100 --> 02:39:32.359 next sentence they have lived in Germany 3614 02:39:32.359 --> 02:39:35.399 but they travel around a lot and now 3615 02:39:35.399 --> 02:39:38.220 they're living in Paris for example so 3616 02:39:38.220 --> 02:39:40.319 using the present progressive tense to 3617 02:39:40.319 --> 02:39:42.600 give some more information in the next 3618 02:39:42.600 --> 02:39:45.600 sentence okay so here we see grammar 3619 02:39:45.600 --> 02:39:47.939 Point number one is being used in this 3620 02:39:47.939 --> 02:39:49.140 first sentence 3621 02:39:49.140 --> 02:39:51.060 let's take a look here at a negative 3622 02:39:51.060 --> 02:39:53.819 sentence I something something never 3623 02:39:53.819 --> 02:39:56.700 something something to Italy here 3624 02:39:56.700 --> 02:40:00.060 we have the subject I here we know that 3625 02:40:00.060 --> 02:40:01.920 it's a negative sentence because it's 3626 02:40:01.920 --> 02:40:06.180 never so we need to use I have never and 3627 02:40:06.180 --> 02:40:09.780 then if I want to use the verb be if I 3628 02:40:09.780 --> 02:40:11.340 want to use the verb be the past 3629 02:40:11.340 --> 02:40:14.520 participle form of the verb be is bin I 3630 02:40:14.520 --> 02:40:16.859 have never been 3631 02:40:16.859 --> 02:40:20.520 to Italy is the correct sentence here so 3632 02:40:20.520 --> 02:40:23.399 I'm expressing no experience in my life 3633 02:40:23.399 --> 02:40:26.340 I have never been to Italy meaning 3634 02:40:26.340 --> 02:40:28.200 as we talked about with grammar Point 3635 02:40:28.200 --> 02:40:31.620 number one in my whole life I have not 3636 02:40:31.620 --> 02:40:34.319 had an experience so there's no time 3637 02:40:34.319 --> 02:40:37.260 point being used here I have never had 3638 02:40:37.260 --> 02:40:41.100 the experience of going to Italy okay 3639 02:40:41.100 --> 02:40:43.979 now let's talk about the next example 3640 02:40:43.979 --> 02:40:45.600 sentence she's something something 3641 02:40:45.600 --> 02:40:49.379 something the test three times so here I 3642 02:40:49.379 --> 02:40:52.020 want to use the verb take so to take a 3643 02:40:52.020 --> 02:40:54.660 test take is going to be the verb for 3644 02:40:54.660 --> 02:40:57.720 this sentence so here my subject is she 3645 02:40:57.720 --> 02:41:00.120 she and I know this is a positive 3646 02:41:00.120 --> 02:41:02.580 sentence a positive statement so I'm 3647 02:41:02.580 --> 02:41:07.560 going to use has she has and take the 3648 02:41:07.560 --> 02:41:10.379 past participle form of the verb take is 3649 02:41:10.379 --> 02:41:14.399 taken she has taken 3650 02:41:14.399 --> 02:41:17.879 the test three times so this sentence 3651 02:41:17.879 --> 02:41:21.600 shows in her life experience at three 3652 02:41:21.600 --> 02:41:24.420 times three points in her life she has 3653 02:41:24.420 --> 02:41:27.540 taken the test so we don't know when she 3654 02:41:27.540 --> 02:41:29.939 took the test but we know she has taken 3655 02:41:29.939 --> 02:41:33.479 the test three times at some point in 3656 02:41:33.479 --> 02:41:35.399 the past this is what this sentence 3657 02:41:35.399 --> 02:41:37.800 teaches us we don't know when just that 3658 02:41:37.800 --> 02:41:41.399 she has taken the test three times okay 3659 02:41:41.399 --> 02:41:44.399 next let's look at this sentence maybe a 3660 02:41:44.399 --> 02:41:46.680 very useful sentence for some people who 3661 02:41:46.680 --> 02:41:49.040 are watching this video on this channel 3662 02:41:49.040 --> 02:41:52.700 so this is I something something English 3663 02:41:52.700 --> 02:41:56.160 for two years okay so there's a big hint 3664 02:41:56.160 --> 02:41:59.340 word here I have the word for included 3665 02:41:59.340 --> 02:42:02.819 in this sentence remember we use four to 3666 02:42:02.819 --> 02:42:06.060 talk about a time period a time period 3667 02:42:06.060 --> 02:42:08.040 so 3668 02:42:08.040 --> 02:42:10.859 that connects to grammar point two which 3669 02:42:10.859 --> 02:42:13.080 we talked about over here so remember 3670 02:42:13.080 --> 02:42:15.780 with grammar Point number two for 3671 02:42:15.780 --> 02:42:18.180 present perfect tense we're showing an 3672 02:42:18.180 --> 02:42:20.580 action that started in the past and 3673 02:42:20.580 --> 02:42:24.359 continues to the present okay so the 3674 02:42:24.359 --> 02:42:27.420 verb I want to use here is study study 3675 02:42:27.420 --> 02:42:32.340 so my subject is I so I need to use have 3676 02:42:32.340 --> 02:42:35.100 in this case and the past participle 3677 02:42:35.100 --> 02:42:39.479 form of study is studied so I have 3678 02:42:39.479 --> 02:42:42.600 studied English for two years this shows 3679 02:42:42.600 --> 02:42:45.600 us a length of time a period of time a 3680 02:42:45.600 --> 02:42:48.540 duration for your studies it shows your 3681 02:42:48.540 --> 02:42:51.060 studies are continuing you are still 3682 02:42:51.060 --> 02:42:53.819 studying English two years ago you 3683 02:42:53.819 --> 02:42:54.899 started 3684 02:42:54.899 --> 02:42:57.479 and you have continued since that time 3685 02:42:57.479 --> 02:43:00.240 you have continued studying for two 3686 02:43:00.240 --> 02:43:02.879 years so this sentence shows us that you 3687 02:43:02.879 --> 02:43:05.340 have studied English and how long you 3688 02:43:05.340 --> 02:43:07.080 have studied English lots of information 3689 02:43:07.080 --> 02:43:08.520 here 3690 02:43:08.520 --> 02:43:11.459 okay let's talk about the next sentence 3691 02:43:11.459 --> 02:43:15.540 a question sentence now okay so here my 3692 02:43:15.540 --> 02:43:19.740 subject I have he he is here so I know 3693 02:43:19.740 --> 02:43:21.780 that because the subject of the sentence 3694 02:43:21.780 --> 02:43:24.600 is he I need to begin my question with 3695 02:43:24.600 --> 02:43:28.020 has has he something something so here I 3696 02:43:28.020 --> 02:43:30.300 want to use the verb take take out the 3697 02:43:30.300 --> 02:43:33.840 trash is sort of a set phrase so 3698 02:43:33.840 --> 02:43:36.720 the past participle form of take is 3699 02:43:36.720 --> 02:43:40.040 taken has he taken out the trash meaning 3700 02:43:40.040 --> 02:43:44.280 uh perhaps today at some point has he 3701 02:43:44.280 --> 02:43:47.520 taken out the trash so maybe we don't 3702 02:43:47.520 --> 02:43:50.459 know when and when he took out the trash 3703 02:43:50.459 --> 02:43:53.100 is not important just has he finished 3704 02:43:53.100 --> 02:43:57.000 the task at some point today so we use 3705 02:43:57.000 --> 02:44:00.120 the present perfect tense for that so we 3706 02:44:00.120 --> 02:44:02.220 can use the simple past sentence did he 3707 02:44:02.220 --> 02:44:04.200 take out the trash but the reason that 3708 02:44:04.200 --> 02:44:06.300 it sounds a little bit more natural to 3709 02:44:06.300 --> 02:44:09.000 say has he taken out the trash is 3710 02:44:09.000 --> 02:44:10.500 because of this point we talked about 3711 02:44:10.500 --> 02:44:14.280 here the effects of that action so if he 3712 02:44:14.280 --> 02:44:16.200 did or did not take out the trash it 3713 02:44:16.200 --> 02:44:18.180 could affect the people around him or 3714 02:44:18.180 --> 02:44:21.540 the environment around him so has he 3715 02:44:21.540 --> 02:44:24.300 taken out the trash if the answer is no 3716 02:44:24.300 --> 02:44:26.100 it might mean there's some negative 3717 02:44:26.100 --> 02:44:28.859 effect in the environment if the answer 3718 02:44:28.859 --> 02:44:31.080 is yes perhaps it means the people in 3719 02:44:31.080 --> 02:44:33.540 the environment will be happy there will 3720 02:44:33.540 --> 02:44:36.000 be a half the effect of that so this is 3721 02:44:36.000 --> 02:44:38.220 the consideration it's a very very small 3722 02:44:38.220 --> 02:44:40.859 point if you ask did he take out the 3723 02:44:40.859 --> 02:44:43.439 trash it's okay to use but keep in mind 3724 02:44:43.439 --> 02:44:46.020 though you may hear people say has he 3725 02:44:46.020 --> 02:44:48.780 taken out the trash as well and this is 3726 02:44:48.780 --> 02:44:51.120 the reason why the effect of taking out 3727 02:44:51.120 --> 02:44:53.640 the trash is what's kind of the Nuance 3728 02:44:53.640 --> 02:44:57.060 of this expression uh great so let's 3729 02:44:57.060 --> 02:44:59.100 talk about the next example sentence 3730 02:44:59.100 --> 02:45:01.379 which country something something you 3731 02:45:01.379 --> 02:45:04.979 something something to so in casual kind 3732 02:45:04.979 --> 02:45:07.740 of more everyday friendly spoken English 3733 02:45:07.740 --> 02:45:10.260 it's okay to end your sentence with a 3734 02:45:10.260 --> 02:45:13.200 preposition in this case too so here I 3735 02:45:13.200 --> 02:45:15.060 have an information question which 3736 02:45:15.060 --> 02:45:19.140 countries I need to use have or has here 3737 02:45:19.140 --> 02:45:22.680 plus you so that tells me I should use 3738 02:45:22.680 --> 02:45:26.399 half which countries have you and I want 3739 02:45:26.399 --> 02:45:29.939 to use again the verb be here so I know 3740 02:45:29.939 --> 02:45:31.920 it should be bin 3741 02:45:31.920 --> 02:45:34.859 which countries have you been to so 3742 02:45:34.859 --> 02:45:37.319 again in your life experience which 3743 02:45:37.319 --> 02:45:39.720 countries have you been to when is not 3744 02:45:39.720 --> 02:45:42.180 important just in your life where where 3745 02:45:42.180 --> 02:45:43.620 which countries 3746 02:45:43.620 --> 02:45:46.020 okay let's look at the next one you'll 3747 02:45:46.020 --> 02:45:48.420 see I have a little apostrophe maybe you 3748 02:45:48.420 --> 02:45:50.520 can see it on the screen there there's a 3749 02:45:50.520 --> 02:45:52.200 little apostrophe here which is a 3750 02:45:52.200 --> 02:45:55.140 pronunciation hint so this is a yes or 3751 02:45:55.140 --> 02:45:56.879 no question you something something 3752 02:45:56.879 --> 02:45:58.939 never something something a motorcycle 3753 02:45:58.939 --> 02:46:01.920 so motorcycle the verb I want to use 3754 02:46:01.920 --> 02:46:05.060 with motorcycle is ride ride the past 3755 02:46:05.060 --> 02:46:09.300 participle form is ridden you've never 3756 02:46:09.300 --> 02:46:12.899 written a motorcycle is the complete 3757 02:46:12.899 --> 02:46:15.120 sentence here so I mentioned this 3758 02:46:15.120 --> 02:46:18.780 pronunciation hint uh you have becomes 3759 02:46:18.780 --> 02:46:21.660 you've in the contracted form you've so 3760 02:46:21.660 --> 02:46:24.600 try not to use you have he has she has 3761 02:46:24.600 --> 02:46:27.780 try to use that apostrophe v e or 3762 02:46:27.780 --> 02:46:30.120 apostrophe s sound when you're speaking 3763 02:46:30.120 --> 02:46:33.000 you've never he's never she's never 3764 02:46:33.000 --> 02:46:36.060 sounds a lot more natural and a lot more 3765 02:46:36.060 --> 02:46:40.260 fluid fluent as well than he has or she 3766 02:46:40.260 --> 02:46:43.080 has or you have so please try to use the 3767 02:46:43.080 --> 02:46:45.660 contracted form here so this sentence 3768 02:46:45.660 --> 02:46:48.660 you've never ridden a motorcycle meaning 3769 02:46:48.660 --> 02:46:51.300 in your life experience 3770 02:46:51.300 --> 02:46:54.720 you have never ridden a motorcycle so 3771 02:46:54.720 --> 02:46:57.359 this is a yes or no question no I've 3772 02:46:57.359 --> 02:46:59.580 never ridden a motorcycle could be the 3773 02:46:59.580 --> 02:47:02.220 answer or yes I have actually ridden a 3774 02:47:02.220 --> 02:47:04.920 motorcycle so this is a simple yes or no 3775 02:47:04.920 --> 02:47:07.439 question but we use the negative form 3776 02:47:07.439 --> 02:47:09.840 here you've never it sounds surprised 3777 02:47:09.840 --> 02:47:12.060 this sounds kind of shocked 3778 02:47:12.060 --> 02:47:14.819 okay let's look at our next example 3779 02:47:14.819 --> 02:47:17.100 sentence we something something never 3780 02:47:17.100 --> 02:47:19.680 something something the verb I want to 3781 02:47:19.680 --> 02:47:22.560 use for this sentence is work work okay 3782 02:47:22.560 --> 02:47:26.340 so the past participle form of work is 3783 02:47:26.340 --> 02:47:27.660 worked 3784 02:47:27.660 --> 02:47:31.620 here okay and uh we is the subject of 3785 02:47:31.620 --> 02:47:35.220 the sentence so we're going to use we 3786 02:47:35.220 --> 02:47:38.280 have never worked internationally in our 3787 02:47:38.280 --> 02:47:41.280 life experience we do not have the 3788 02:47:41.280 --> 02:47:43.379 experience of working internationally 3789 02:47:43.379 --> 02:47:46.319 okay finally 3790 02:47:46.319 --> 02:47:50.180 they something something in Paris since 3791 02:47:50.180 --> 02:47:53.160 2015. so just as we practice with this 3792 02:47:53.160 --> 02:47:55.920 example sentence with four here we see 3793 02:47:55.920 --> 02:47:58.859 since so this shows us that maybe a 3794 02:47:58.859 --> 02:48:02.399 specific point in time in this case 2015 3795 02:48:02.399 --> 02:48:04.740 is going to give us some extra 3796 02:48:04.740 --> 02:48:09.300 information about this situation so 3797 02:48:09.300 --> 02:48:10.200 um 3798 02:48:10.200 --> 02:48:13.920 let's use the verb live again 3799

--> 02:59:40.379 time bye 4064 02:59:40.379 --> 02:59:43.080 hi everybody my name is Alicia in this 4065 02:59:43.080 --> 02:59:45.180 lesson I'm going to talk about could 4066 02:59:45.180 --> 02:59:48.180 have should have and would have what 4067 02:59:48.180 --> 02:59:49.979 they mean how to use them in the 4068 02:59:49.979 --> 02:59:52.020 negative and the differences between 4069 02:59:52.020 --> 02:59:55.379 them so let's get started first I want 4070 02:59:55.379 --> 02:59:58.319 to begin with could have let's look at 4071 02:59:58.319 --> 03:00:00.840 the positive and the negative meanings 4072 03:00:00.840 --> 03:00:04.319 of could have first positive we use 4073 03:00:04.319 --> 03:00:07.319 could have positive for something that 4074 03:00:07.319 --> 03:00:11.220 was possible in the past so to give kind 4075 03:00:11.220 --> 03:00:13.740 of an image of this if our conversation 4076 03:00:13.740 --> 03:00:17.300 is happening now when we use could have 4077 03:00:17.300 --> 03:00:20.720 we're talking about something that had 4078 03:00:20.720 --> 03:00:24.060 possibility in the past something we 4079 03:00:24.060 --> 03:00:27.479 were able to do for example an example 4080 03:00:27.479 --> 03:00:31.500 sentence ah if I had known you were 4081 03:00:31.500 --> 03:00:35.220 throwing a surprise party I could have 4082 03:00:35.220 --> 03:00:39.660 helped I could have helped so here could 4083 03:00:39.660 --> 03:00:43.080 have show us that this action helping 4084 03:00:43.080 --> 03:00:46.439 was possible in the past in this case 4085 03:00:46.439 --> 03:00:48.720 the speaker did not know some 4086 03:00:48.720 --> 03:00:49.520 information 4087 03:00:49.520 --> 03:00:52.560 and as a result this action did not 4088 03:00:52.560 --> 03:00:56.340 happen but it was possible at a point in 4089 03:00:56.340 --> 03:00:59.160 the past the speaker could have helped 4090 03:00:59.160 --> 03:01:02.279 helping was a possibility in the past so 4091 03:01:02.279 --> 03:01:04.620 we use could have to express that 4092 03:01:04.620 --> 03:01:05.819 possibility 4093 03:01:05.819 --> 03:01:09.120 the negative form however expresses the 4094 03:01:09.120 --> 03:01:12.479 opposite so in the negative could 4095 03:01:12.479 --> 03:01:14.959 not have 4096 03:01:14.959 --> 03:01:18.140 expresses something that was impossible 4097 03:01:18.140 --> 03:01:21.180 impossible so not possible in the past 4098 03:01:21.180 --> 03:01:24.000 so here if we want to give an image it's 4099 03:01:24.000 --> 03:01:27.240 something that was not possible 4100 03:01:27.240 --> 03:01:30.540 something we were not able to do let's 4101 03:01:30.540 --> 03:01:32.660 look at an example of this 4102 03:01:32.660 --> 03:01:37.439 no that couldn't have been Sarah in the 4103 03:01:37.439 --> 03:01:41.220 cafe just now she's at the office so 4104 03:01:41.220 --> 03:01:45.180 here I'm using couldn't have could not 4105 03:01:45.180 --> 03:01:48.080 have contracted reduced becomes couldn't 4106 03:01:48.080 --> 03:01:51.720 so that couldn't have been Sarah in the 4107 03:01:51.720 --> 03:01:54.600 cafe just now in other words it's 4108 03:01:54.600 --> 03:01:57.840 impossible that just now we saw Sarah in 4109 03:01:57.840 --> 03:02:02.220 the cafe why she's at the office so in 4110 03:02:02.220 --> 03:02:04.260 this case maybe Sarah is the speaker's 4111 03:02:04.260 --> 03:02:06.959 colleague co-worker so we know Sarah is 4112 03:02:06.959 --> 03:02:09.359 at the office so we saw someone maybe 4113 03:02:09.359 --> 03:02:12.240 who looks like Sarah at the cafe just 4114 03:02:12.240 --> 03:02:15.600 now but it's not possible it was Sarah 4115 03:02:15.600 --> 03:02:18.180 because Sarah's at the office so we can 4116 03:02:18.180 --> 03:02:21.840 say that couldn't have been so it's 4117 03:02:21.840 --> 03:02:24.479 impossible that that was Sarah so 4118 03:02:24.479 --> 03:02:26.340 couldn't have been sounds much more 4119 03:02:26.340 --> 03:02:28.560 natural than it's impossible that that 4120 03:02:28.560 --> 03:02:30.959 was Sarah so we use couldn't have been 4121 03:02:30.959 --> 03:02:33.000 or could not have been 4122 03:02:33.000 --> 03:02:35.939 so positive form something that was 4123 03:02:35.939 --> 03:02:39.540 possible in the past so be careful in 4124 03:02:39.540 --> 03:02:42.240 maybe contrast a key difference here is 4125 03:02:42.240 --> 03:02:45.660 this is only about possibility we're not 4126 03:02:45.660 --> 03:02:47.819 talking about like a plan to do 4127 03:02:47.819 --> 03:02:50.700 something or regret necessarily we're 4128 03:02:50.700 --> 03:02:53.520 only talking about possibility when we 4129 03:02:53.520 --> 03:02:57.779 use could or could not here so with this 4130 03:02:57.779 --> 03:03:00.600 let's move along to the next part the 4131 03:03:00.600 --> 03:03:03.359 next part I want to focus on should have 4132 03:03:03.359 --> 03:03:05.939 so let's look at the positive form 4133 03:03:05.939 --> 03:03:09.359 should have in the positive expresses 4134 03:03:09.359 --> 03:03:14.100 regret for something we did not do in 4135 03:03:14.100 --> 03:03:17.160 the past so an image of this here if our 4136 03:03:17.160 --> 03:03:20.100 conversation is happening now we want to 4137 03:03:20.100 --> 03:03:21.840 talk about something 4138 03:03:21.840 --> 03:03:26.399 we did not do in the past and that now 4139 03:03:26.399 --> 03:03:29.899 maybe we think oh it's a good idea like 4140 03:03:29.899 --> 03:03:34.080 I should have done this thing I did not 4141 03:03:34.080 --> 03:03:36.300 do this thing in the past that's why I 4142 03:03:36.300 --> 03:03:38.760 marked it with an X here so I did not do 4143 03:03:38.760 --> 03:03:41.939 this thing but I feel bad now I feel 4144 03:03:41.939 --> 03:03:45.420 regret like I should have done that 4145 03:03:45.420 --> 03:03:48.359 thing in the past so an example sentence 4146 03:03:48.359 --> 03:03:49.379 of this 4147 03:03:49.379 --> 03:03:52.920 I should have studied more when I was in 4148 03:03:52.920 --> 03:03:56.100 school here is the should have I should 4149 03:03:56.100 --> 03:03:59.879 have and this action studied more 4150 03:03:59.879 --> 03:04:03.240 so in other words the speaker did not 4151 03:04:03.240 --> 03:04:05.879 study enough in the past the speaker 4152 03:04:05.879 --> 03:04:08.459 feels he or she did not study enough in 4153 03:04:08.459 --> 03:04:11.340 the past regrets that and wants to 4154 03:04:11.340 --> 03:04:15.300 express the change like I wish I had 4155 03:04:15.300 --> 03:04:18.060 done this thing I should have studied 4156 03:04:18.060 --> 03:04:21.600 more when I was in school so here we 4157 03:04:21.600 --> 03:04:23.760 have more this is a common pattern with 4158 03:04:23.760 --> 03:04:26.279 should have or should not have when we 4159 03:04:26.279 --> 03:04:28.319 use more it means I should have studied 4160 03:04:28.319 --> 03:04:32.279 more than I did when I was in school 4161 03:04:32.279 --> 03:04:35.100 so here the speaker is Regret expressing 4162 03:04:35.100 --> 03:04:38.399 regret sadness about something they did 4163 03:04:38.399 --> 03:04:41.520 not do therefore when we use the 4164 03:04:41.520 --> 03:04:43.680 negative form the speaker again 4165 03:04:43.680 --> 03:04:46.260 expressed his regret yes but they're 4166 03:04:46.260 --> 03:04:48.540 expressing regret for something that 4167 03:04:48.540 --> 03:04:51.180 happened in the past something they did 4168 03:04:51.180 --> 03:04:53.340 in the past so I've marked it here with 4169 03:04:53.340 --> 03:04:56.700 a check this action did happen and we 4170 03:04:56.700 --> 03:04:59.399 feel regret about that action we feel 4171 03:04:59.399 --> 03:05:01.859 bad about something we did in the past 4172 03:05:01.859 --> 03:05:05.879 an example I shouldn't have spent so 4173 03:05:05.879 --> 03:05:08.760 much time playing video games when I was 4174 03:05:08.760 --> 03:05:13.260 a kid so here I've used shouldn't have 4175 03:05:13.260 --> 03:05:16.560 so should not have is how we make the 4176 03:05:16.560 --> 03:05:18.779 negative form I've reduced it shouldn't 4177 03:05:18.779 --> 03:05:21.000 have shouldn't have in Rapid speech 4178 03:05:21.000 --> 03:05:23.399 shouldn't have I shouldn't have spent so 4179 03:05:23.399 --> 03:05:26.399 much time playing video games so what's 4180 03:05:26.399 --> 03:05:28.979 the action here the speaker played video 4181 03:05:28.979 --> 03:05:32.279 games when he or she was a child the 4182 03:05:32.279 --> 03:05:34.800 speaker now regrets that the speaker 4183 03:05:34.800 --> 03:05:37.560 says I shouldn't have spent so much time 4184 03:05:37.560 --> 03:05:40.140 I should have spent less time playing 4185 03:05:40.140 --> 03:05:43.200 video games so I could use positive 4186 03:05:43.200 --> 03:05:45.600 should have I should have spent less 4187 03:05:45.600 --> 03:05:48.240 time playing video games when I was a 4188 03:05:48.240 --> 03:05:50.939 kid here I shouldn't have spent so much 4189 03:05:50.939 --> 03:05:54.180 time so here a key point with should 4190 03:05:54.180 --> 03:05:56.760 have is that we're expressing regret 4191 03:05:56.760 --> 03:05:58.800 remember with could have we're talking 4192 03:05:58.800 --> 03:06:02.220 just about possibility with should have 4193 03:06:02.220 --> 03:06:04.500 we're expressing a regret for something 4194 03:06:04.500 --> 03:06:07.560 that did or did not happen in the past 4195 03:06:07.560 --> 03:06:10.319 so with this in mind let's go on to the 4196 03:06:10.319 --> 03:06:12.600 last point for this lesson the last 4197 03:06:12.600 --> 03:06:15.120 point the last Point rather is would 4198 03:06:15.120 --> 03:06:16.680 have would have 4199 03:06:16.680 --> 03:06:19.859 so when we say would have we often say 4200 03:06:19.859 --> 03:06:22.439 would have would have I mentioned here 4201 03:06:22.439 --> 03:06:24.540 with should have we say should have or 4202 03:06:24.540 --> 03:06:26.459 shouldn't have same thing with could 4203 03:06:26.459 --> 03:06:28.920 have like could have or couldn't have is 4204 03:06:28.920 --> 03:06:31.920 the correct pronunciation in fast speech 4205 03:06:31.920 --> 03:06:34.379 so when we talk about would have or when 4206 03:06:34.379 --> 03:06:36.660 we look at would have and we look at the 4207 03:06:36.660 --> 03:06:38.120 positive form 4208 03:06:38.120 --> 03:06:41.700 we use it to express a plan for 4209 03:06:41.700 --> 03:06:44.939 something that did not happen so we're 4210 03:06:44.939 --> 03:06:47.700 talking about something in the past so 4211 03:06:47.700 --> 03:06:50.100 from a point in the past 4212 03:06:50.100 --> 03:06:53.700 something in the future at that time 4213 03:06:53.700 --> 03:06:55.979 we had a plan for that thing or we 4214 03:06:55.979 --> 03:06:57.660 thought something was going to happen 4215 03:06:57.660 --> 03:07:00.840 but in the positive form it did not 4216 03:07:00.840 --> 03:07:03.300 happen this is kind of tricky let's look 4217 03:07:03.300 --> 03:07:06.240 at an example situation here 4218 03:07:06.240 --> 03:07:10.620 I would have arrived on time today but 4219 03:07:10.620 --> 03:07:13.319 there was terrible traffic so I did not 4220 03:07:13.319 --> 03:07:16.620 arrive on time so first here's my action 4221 03:07:16.620 --> 03:07:19.740 I would have arrived on time 4222 03:07:19.740 --> 03:07:24.600 so I had a plan or I had a desire I was 4223 03:07:24.600 --> 03:07:27.720 thinking I was going to arrive on time 4224 03:07:27.720 --> 03:07:30.779 so at this point in time I would have 4225 03:07:30.779 --> 03:07:32.640 arrived on time today maybe we're 4226 03:07:32.640 --> 03:07:34.439 thinking when I left the house maybe 4227 03:07:34.439 --> 03:07:37.379 this is where the action starts my plan 4228 03:07:37.379 --> 03:07:40.319 was to arrive on time so again this is 4229 03:07:40.319 --> 03:07:42.359 all happening in the past my 4230 03:07:42.359 --> 03:07:43.979 conversation is here 4231 03:07:43.979 --> 03:07:47.040 I was planning to arrive on time but 4232 03:07:47.040 --> 03:07:49.620 there was terrible traffic terrible 4233 03:07:49.620 --> 03:07:51.899 traffic means lots and lots of cars it 4234 03:07:51.899 --> 03:07:53.760 was difficult to drive or difficult to 4235 03:07:53.760 --> 03:07:58.260 get to work so I did not arrive on time 4236 03:07:58.260 --> 03:08:01.200 I would have arrived on time but I 4237 03:08:01.200 --> 03:08:03.779 didn't because of terrible traffic so 4238 03:08:03.779 --> 03:08:06.359 this shows us this would have shows us 4239 03:08:06.359 --> 03:08:09.540 all of this information everything here 4240 03:08:09.540 --> 03:08:12.420 happened in the past on like a timeline 4241 03:08:12.420 --> 03:08:15.660 so I thought I was going to arrive on 4242 03:08:15.660 --> 03:08:18.899 time something happened and I didn't 4243 03:08:18.899 --> 03:08:21.600 so we can use would have to show like 4244 03:08:21.600 --> 03:08:24.300 our thinking in this point would have in 4245 03:08:24.300 --> 03:08:27.720 the past about a future action that is 4246 03:08:27.720 --> 03:08:30.720 also in the past so a couple of past 4247 03:08:30.720 --> 03:08:34.379 points there at the same time okay so 4248 03:08:34.379 --> 03:08:37.200 let's compare this then to the negative 4249 03:08:37.200 --> 03:08:39.720 form the negative form then expresses 4250 03:08:39.720 --> 03:08:43.140 the opposite so we have a lack of plan 4251 03:08:43.140 --> 03:08:46.020 or a lack of a desire so lack of 4252 03:08:46.020 --> 03:08:49.260 something means no plan or no desire so 4253 03:08:49.260 --> 03:08:52.140 lack of plan for something that happened 4254 03:08:52.140 --> 03:08:55.500 in the past it did happen yes 4255 03:08:55.500 --> 03:08:59.640 so we commonly use both of these to talk 4256 03:08:59.640 --> 03:09:01.979 about other people's choices like when 4257 03:09:01.979 --> 03:09:04.500 we're giving advice this example 4258 03:09:04.500 --> 03:09:06.660 sentence is a very common way that we 4259 03:09:06.660 --> 03:09:09.420 use would not have or wouldn't have 4260 03:09:09.420 --> 03:09:12.660 let's look if I were you 4261 03:09:12.660 --> 03:09:16.140 I wouldn't have quit my job before I 4262 03:09:16.140 --> 03:09:20.220 found a new position so here is my would 4263 03:09:20.220 --> 03:09:22.200 not have I've reduced it to wouldn't 4264 03:09:22.200 --> 03:09:25.920 have I would not have quit my job before 4265 03:09:25.920 --> 03:09:28.500 I found a new position 4266 03:09:28.500 --> 03:09:31.979 so that means if I were you this is how 4267 03:09:31.979 --> 03:09:33.600 we're beginning this this is a very 4268 03:09:33.600 --> 03:09:36.420 common way that this would have or would 4269 03:09:36.420 --> 03:09:38.100 not have is used 4270 03:09:38.100 --> 03:09:41.819 so if I were you I'm not you but if I 4271 03:09:41.819 --> 03:09:44.540 were at this point in time in the past 4272 03:09:44.540 --> 03:09:46.700 my decision 4273 03:09:46.700 --> 03:09:50.479 would not have been to quit my job 4274 03:09:50.479 --> 03:09:54.420 however your decision was to quit your 4275 03:09:54.420 --> 03:09:57.959 job this did happen you quit your job in 4276 03:09:57.959 --> 03:10:01.620 my case I would not have done that so 4277 03:10:01.620 --> 03:10:04.260 here in opposite to the positive form 4278 03:10:04.260 --> 03:10:06.660 I'm talking about a point in the past 4279 03:10:06.660 --> 03:10:09.840 like if I were you just in general and 4280 03:10:09.840 --> 03:10:12.779 I'm talking about a future decision I 4281 03:10:12.779 --> 03:10:15.240 might make in this case the person 4282 03:10:15.240 --> 03:10:17.459 listening did choose to quit his or her 4283 03:10:17.459 --> 03:10:20.279 job I'm saying I would not have quit my 4284 03:10:20.279 --> 03:10:22.859 job that would not have been my decision 4285 03:10:22.859 --> 03:10:27.000 for the future so again there's kind of 4286 03:10:27.000 --> 03:10:29.399 this idea of two points in the past like 4287 03:10:29.399 --> 03:10:32.340 a kind of a general I guess a starting 4288 03:10:32.340 --> 03:10:34.920 point in the past if I were you in this 4289 03:10:34.920 --> 03:10:37.920 case and some decision some plan some 4290 03:10:37.920 --> 03:10:40.620 like desire or lack of desire in this 4291 03:10:40.620 --> 03:10:43.379 case in the negative form so we use 4292 03:10:43.379 --> 03:10:45.240 these like I said to talk about like 4293 03:10:45.240 --> 03:10:47.220 other people's choices what when we're 4294 03:10:47.220 --> 03:10:50.700 giving advice like oh if I were you I 4295 03:10:50.700 --> 03:10:54.180 would have done this in the past so we 4296 03:10:54.180 --> 03:10:56.879 use would have to talk about uh past 4297 03:10:56.879 --> 03:11:01.260 decisions and maybe to talk about things 4298 03:11:01.260 --> 03:11:03.779 um like if you if you were the speaker 4299 03:11:03.779 --> 03:11:06.840 like things you might change what would 4300 03:11:06.840 --> 03:11:09.720 you do differently so we use this to 4301 03:11:09.720 --> 03:11:12.120 talk about these sorts of past past 4302 03:11:12.120 --> 03:11:14.760 decisions and give advice and talk about 4303 03:11:14.760 --> 03:11:18.000 how we might make different decisions in 4304 03:11:18.000 --> 03:11:21.479 the future so this kind of expresses a 4305 03:11:21.479 --> 03:11:25.200 desire or lack of Desire this one should 4306 03:11:25.200 --> 03:11:28.439 have expresses regret in the past could 4307 03:11:28.439 --> 03:11:31.740 have expresses possibility so this is 4308 03:11:31.740 --> 03:11:33.899 just a quick introduction to the 4309 03:11:33.899 --> 03:11:35.640 differences between these three 4310 03:11:35.640 --> 03:11:38.160 expressions and their negative forms I 4311 03:11:38.160 --> 03:11:40.140 didn't write the not here so would not 4312 03:11:40.140 --> 03:11:43.319 have but if you have any other questions 4313 03:11:43.319 --> 03:11:45.359 about this please let us know in the 4314 03:11:45.359 --> 03:11:48.120 comments there are very similar I know 4315 03:11:48.120 --> 03:11:50.399 they sound very similar and it can be 4316 03:11:50.399 --> 03:11:53.220 hard to understand how to use them but 4317 03:11:53.220 --> 03:11:55.560 try to keep these three kind of themes 4318 03:11:55.560 --> 03:11:59.459 in mind possibility and regret and then 4319 03:11:59.459 --> 03:12:03.180 kind of Desire or advice here so I hope 4320 03:12:03.180 --> 03:12:04.740 that this helps you understand the 4321 03:12:04.740 --> 03:12:06.899 differences between these three if you 4322 03:12:06.899 --> 03:12:08.700 have questions or comments or if you 4323 03:12:08.700 --> 03:12:10.560 want to

03:14:43.859 --> 03:14:48.660 pretty good not bad here's a tip even 4384 03:14:48.660 --> 03:14:51.240 though these answers mean the same thing 4385 03:14:51.240 --> 03:14:54.779 as I'm fine you can't answer how's it 4386 03:14:54.779 --> 03:14:58.200 going with I'm fine it will sound a bit 4387 03:14:58.200 --> 03:14:59.580 strange 4388 03:14:59.580 --> 03:15:02.580 if you're not feeling good you can say 4389 03:15:02.580 --> 03:15:04.800 not so good 4390 03:15:04.800 --> 03:15:06.899 not so good 4391 03:15:06.899 --> 03:15:08.640 not great 4392 03:15:08.640 --> 03:15:12.840 not great or not

what's 4396 03:15:21.779 --> 03:15:25.500 wrong to be polite then you will have to 4397 03:15:25.500 --> 03:15:26.700 explain 4398 03:15:26.700 --> 03:15:29.640 another casual but very common version 4399 03:15:29.640 --> 03:15:33.060 of how are you is what's up 4400 03:15:33.060 --> 03:15:34.680 what's up 4401 03:15:34.680 --> 03:15:38.100 to reply use a cheerful voice as you say 4402

English we're not 4411 03:16:06.479 --> 03:16:08.939 actually asking about the other person's 4412 03:16:08.939 --> 03:16:11.760 health we're only asking to be polite 4413 03:16:11.760 -->

see you next time 4459 03:18:31.080 --> 03:18:33.120 hi everybody welcome back to ask Alicia 4460 03:18:33.120 --> 03:18:34.920 the weekly series where you ask me 4461 03:18:34.920 --> 03:18:37.319 questions and I answer them maybe okay 4462 03:18:37.319 --> 03:18:39.240 let's get to your first question this 4463 03:18:39.240 --> 03:18:41.459 week first question this week comes from 4464 03:18:41.459 --> 03:18:45.180 Sadaf hi Sadaf Sadaf says hi Alicia my 4465 03:18:45.180 --> 03:18:48.000 question is when do we use actually and 4466 03:18:48.000 --> 03:18:50.160 when do we use really I'm always 4467 03:18:50.160 --> 03:18:52.680 confused about whether to use really or 4468 03:18:52.680 --> 03:18:54.420 actually in a sentence love from 4469 03:18:54.420 --> 03:18:55.920 Pakistan cool thanks for the question 4470 03:18:55.920 --> 03:18:58.920 sure yeah let's talk about really and 4471 03:18:58.920 --> 03:19:00.899 actually let's start with the word 4472 03:19:00.899 --> 03:19:04.140 really we use really to emphasize 4473 03:19:04.140 --> 03:19:06.300 something we tend to use it a lot for 4474 03:19:06.300 --> 03:19:08.459 example in front of adjectives when we 4475 03:19:08.459 --> 03:19:09.899 want to show that something is 4476 03:19:09.899 --> 03:19:12.959 especially or extra that adjective for 4477 03:19:12.959 --> 03:19:16.439 example this is really beautiful or that 4478 03:19:16.439 --> 03:19:18.779 dinner was really delicious you can 4479 03:19:18.779 --> 03:19:21.240 think of this use as similar to very 4480 03:19:21.240 --> 03:19:23.459 right so when we want to emphasize 4481 03:19:23.459 --> 03:19:25.439 something we say that it is really 4482 03:19:25.439 --> 03:19:29.040 something in contrast actually is used 4483 03:19:29.040 --> 03:19:31.080 to talk about things that are truly 4484 03:19:31.080 --> 03:19:34.080 something else so I can understand why 4485 03:19:34.080 --> 03:19:36.300 really and actually might seem like they 4486 03:19:36.300 --> 03:19:38.939 have similar uses but we use actually 4487 03:19:38.939 --> 03:19:41.220 when we want to clarify something when 4488 03:19:41.220 --> 03:19:43.200 we want to express that something is 4489 03:19:43.200 --> 03:19:45.779 true or something was real so we use 4490 03:19:45.779 --> 03:19:47.819 this when maybe someone has made a 4491 03:19:47.819 --> 03:19:50.100 comment that is not true or is not 4492 03:19:50.100 --> 03:19:52.500 correct and we want to correct their 4493 03:19:52.500 --> 03:19:54.779 comment so for example if someone says 4494 03:19:54.779 --> 03:19:57.120 to you hey didn't you pass your English 4495 03:19:57.120 --> 03:19:59.160 exam last week that was last week right 4496 03:19:59.160 --> 03:20:02.160 you might say actually my exam is next 4497 03:20:02.160 --> 03:20:05.340 week so that actually means truly or 4498 03:20:05.340 --> 03:20:07.500 really or it's like a kind of Correction 4499 03:20:07.500 --> 03:20:10.080 to the thing the other person said so we 4500 03:20:10.080 --> 03:20:12.779 use actually when we need to correct or 4501 03:20:12.779 --> 03:20:15.600 clarify something we use really when we 4502 03:20:15.600 --> 03:20:17.700 need to emphasize something here's 4503 03:20:17.700 --> 03:20:20.220 another example with actually let's look 4504 03:20:20.220 --> 03:20:22.800 at another example situation hey I 4505 03:20:22.800 --> 03:20:24.540 haven't received that file yet did you 4506 03:20:24.540 --> 03:20:27.359 send it to me oh actually I forgot I'm 4507 03:20:27.359 --> 03:20:30.180 so sorry about that so in that example 4508 03:20:30.180 --> 03:20:33.000 situation it might be someone clarifying 4509 03:20:33.000 --> 03:20:35.819 the situation for another person so they 4510 03:20:35.819 --> 03:20:38.160 use actually to express some kind of 4511 03:20:38.160 --> 03:20:41.160 true or real information so I hope that 4512 03:20:41.160 --> 03:20:42.420 this helps you understand the 4513 03:20:42.420 --> 03:20:44.840 differences between really and actually 4514 03:20:44.840 --> 03:20:47.459 emphasis and kind of clarification or 4515 03:20:47.459 --> 03:20:49.439 correction of information thanks very 4516 03:20:49.439 --> 03:20:51.240 much for the question okay let's get to 4517 03:20:51.240 --> 03:20:53.279 your next question next question comes 4518 03:20:53.279 --> 03:20:56.520 from Nabil hi Nabil Nabil says what is 4519 03:20:56.520 --> 03:21:00.600 the difference between or and nor thank 4520 03:21:00.600 --> 03:21:02.340 you yeah good question they seem really 4521 03:21:02.340 --> 03:21:04.439 similar right or and nor there's just 4522 03:21:04.439 --> 03:21:07.439 one letter different so we use or and 4523 03:21:07.439 --> 03:21:10.620 nor in positive and negative expressions 4524 03:21:10.620 --> 03:21:12.840 for example when you're choosing between 4525 03:21:12.840 --> 03:21:15.180 two things someone might offer you a 4526 03:21:15.180 --> 03:21:16.920 choice they might say would you like the 4527 03:21:16.920 --> 03:21:19.319 red shirt or the blue shirt for example 4528 03:21:19.319 --> 03:21:22.740 so we're using or to show an offer in 4529 03:21:22.740 --> 03:21:24.300 this case or we're using it in a 4530 03:21:24.300 --> 03:21:27.720 question pattern we use nor in negative 4531 03:21:27.720 --> 03:21:30.300 sentence patterns for example you might 4532 03:21:30.300 --> 03:21:33.359 respond to that as I would like neither 4533 03:21:33.359 --> 03:21:36.600 the red shirt nor the blue shirt so 4534 03:21:36.600 --> 03:21:38.760 you're showing that both of the options 4535 03:21:38.760 --> 03:21:40.859 are not what you want they're not what 4536 03:21:40.859 --> 03:21:43.620 you're looking for we use nor to express 4537 03:21:43.620 --> 03:21:46.260 that this tends to sound a little bit 4538 03:21:46.260 --> 03:21:48.479 more formal we don't use these kinds of 4539 03:21:48.479 --> 03:21:50.640 patterns so much in everyday speech now 4540 03:21:50.640 --> 03:21:52.319 but you might hear them from time to 4541 03:21:52.319 --> 03:21:54.540 time so the key here though is that 4542 03:21:54.540 --> 03:21:56.819 you're using it in a negative sentence 4543 03:21:56.819 --> 03:21:59.100 in this example I said I would like 4544 03:21:59.100 --> 03:22:02.160 neither the red shirt nor the blue shirt 4545 03:22:02.160 --> 03:22:04.260 so using or in this example sentence 4546 03:22:04.260 --> 03:22:06.300 would be incorrect I would like neither 4547 03:22:06.300 --> 03:22:08.399 the red shirt or the blue shirt would be 4548 03:22:08.399 --> 03:22:10.740 totally incorrect we have to match the 4549 03:22:10.740 --> 03:22:13.560 negative neither with nor in this 4550 03:22:13.560 --> 03:22:15.600 sentence pattern so if you want to 4551 03:22:15.600 --> 03:22:17.760 express that two choices or multiple 4552 03:22:17.760 --> 03:22:20.279 choices are all not acceptable for you 4553 03:22:20.279 --> 03:22:22.319 and you want to use this kind of pattern 4554 03:22:22.319 --> 03:22:24.120 you can totally do that but just 4555 03:22:24.120 --> 03:22:26.879 remember you can't interchange or and 4556 03:22:26.879 --> 03:22:30.240 nor so in sum or is is used to present 4557 03:22:30.240 --> 03:22:32.580 different options like colors or maybe 4558 03:22:32.580 --> 03:22:36.060 sizes whatever it is and nor is used to 4559 03:22:36.060 --> 03:22:38.700 respond to those in a negative sentence 4560 03:22:38.700 --> 03:22:40.379 pattern so I hope that this helps you 4561 03:22:40.379 --> 03:22:42.300 understand the differences between or 4562 03:22:42.300 --> 03:22:44.340 and nor thanks very much for the 4563 03:22:44.340 --> 03:22:46.140 question okay let's go to your next 4564 03:22:46.140 --> 03:22:48.420 question next question comes from Sergey 4565 03:22:48.420 --> 03:22:51.120 hi Sergey Sergey says Hi teacher I hope 4566 03:22:51.120 --> 03:22:53.100 all is well I just watched your video 4567 03:22:53.100 --> 03:22:55.260 about the word shoot and it reminded me 4568 03:22:55.260 --> 03:22:58.140 of a song by Divine called shoot your 4569 03:22:58.140 --> 03:23:01.020 shot I thought the name of the song is 4570 03:23:01.020 --> 03:23:03.540 something like an English idiom and the 4571 03:23:03.540 --> 03:23:05.879 meaning is do what you consider you have 4572 03:23:05.879 --> 03:23:08.340 to do am I right is this expression used 4573 03:23:08.340 --> 03:23:10.979 nowadays yeah good question so shoot 4574 03:23:10.979 --> 03:23:13.260 your shot yes you're very close with 4575 03:23:13.260 --> 03:23:15.600 your example with do what you consider 4576 03:23:15.600 --> 03:23:18.239 you need to do the expression shoot your 4577 03:23:18.239 --> 03:23:19.800 shot it might be helpful to think of 4578 03:23:19.800 --> 03:23:22.500 this as a sports related expression you 4579 03:23:22.500 --> 03:23:24.600 can think of shoot your shot as meaning 4580 03:23:24.600 --> 03:23:27.120 try to do the thing that you think you 4581 03:23:27.120 --> 03:23:29.399 want to do so for example if if you 4582 03:23:29.399 --> 03:23:31.680 imagine a basketball player trying to 4583 03:23:31.680 --> 03:23:35.220 shoot his or her shot they try to make a 4584 03:23:35.220 --> 03:23:38.040 basket in this example situation so when 4585 03:23:38.040 --> 03:23:40.260 you say shoot your shot to someone it 4586 03:23:40.260 --> 03:23:42.420 means try to do the thing that you think 4587 03:23:42.420 --> 03:23:44.640 you want to do there are many different 4588 03:23:44.640 --> 03:23:46.800 situations where we use this expression 4589 03:23:46.800 --> 03:23:49.140 we tend to use it a lot in situations 4590 03:23:49.140 --> 03:23:51.420 that have kind of a challenging feel or 4591 03:23:51.420 --> 03:23:53.100 maybe that make us a little bit nervous 4592 03:23:53.100 --> 03:23:55.800 like for example asking someone out on a 4593 03:23:55.800 --> 03:23:57.779 date or talking to someone that you find 4594 03:23:57.779 --> 03:24:00.600 attractive in a social situation you 4595 03:24:00.600 --> 03:24:02.220 might try to encourage your friend and 4596 03:24:02.220 --> 03:24:04.379 say go on shoot your shot which means 4597 03:24:04.379 --> 03:24:06.899 try to talk to that person or try to get 4598 03:24:06.899 -->

03:26:11.279 --> 03:26:14.879 how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if 4659 03:26:14.879 --> 03:26:18.000 a woodchuck could chuck wood the next 4660 03:26:18.000 --> 03:26:19.920 tug twister is also a classic one about 4661 03:26:19.920 --> 03:26:22.379 woodchucks woodchucks are real creatures 4662 03:26:22.379 --> 03:26:24.840 that exist on the west coast of the 4663 03:26:24.840 --> 03:26:26.399 United States primarily in Washington 4664 03:26:26.399 --> 03:26:29.160 Oregon they're like beavers but they 4665 03:26:29.160 --> 03:26:30.840 don't live in rivers they live in like 4666 03:26:30.840 --> 03:26:33.420 forests and rocks the tongue twister is 4667 03:26:33.420 --> 03:26:35.220 how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if 4668 03:26:35.220 --> 03:26:36.840 a woodchuck could

there's a common response to that which 4672 03:26:41.100 --> 03:26:42.720 is it would chuck all the wood that a 4673 03:26:42.720 --> 03:26:43.859 woodchuck could if a woodchuck could 4674

4738 03:29:05.580 --> 03:29:06.959 bored at their job and they just think 4739 03:29:06.959 --> 03:29:09.799 of these sorts of things 4740 03:29:16.620 --> 03:29:19.620 foreign 4741 03:29:19.859 --> 03:29:22.140 hi everybody my name is Alicia welcome 4742 03:29:22.140 --> 03:29:24.359 back to top words today we're going to 4743 03:29:24.359 --> 03:29:27.239 talk about 10 ways to stop translating 4744 03:29:27.239 --> 03:29:31.680 in your head let's get started identify 4745 03:29:31.680 --> 03:29:34.680 objects around you in English the first 4746 03:29:34.680 --> 03:29:37.200 way to stop translating in your head is 4747 03:29:37.200 --> 03:29:40.319 to identify the objects around you in 4748 03:29:40.319 --> 03:29:41.939 your target language so if you're 4749 03:29:41.939 --> 03:29:44.160 studying English that means you look at 4750 03:29:44.160 --> 03:29:46.379 the objects around the room look at the 4751 03:29:46.379 --> 03:29:49.379 things in your life don't think of them 4752 03:29:49.379 --> 03:29:51.899 in your native language first think of 4753 03:29:51.899 --> 03:29:54.660 them in your target language first so if 4754 03:29:54.660 --> 03:29:56.340 I look around the room I see a computer 4755 03:29:56.340 --> 03:29:58.920 I shouldn't think my native language 4756 03:29:58.920 --> 03:30:01.080 word I should think my target language 4757 03:30:01.080 --> 03:30:03.720 word so start with the items and the 4758 03:30:03.720 --> 03:30:06.779 situations in your everyday life if I 4759 03:30:06.779 --> 03:30:08.700 say computer in English maybe I should 4760 03:30:08.700 --> 03:30:11.760 say computer in Japanese I should say 4761 03:30:11.760 --> 03:30:14.459 not I don't know water in English I 4762 03:30:14.459 --> 03:30:17.700 should say omizu in Japanese so start 4763 03:30:17.700 --> 03:30:20.459 associating the words in your target 4764 03:30:20.459 --> 03:30:23.640 language with your everyday life now so 4765 03:30:23.640 --> 03:30:25.739 if you're studying English that means 4766 03:30:25.739 --> 03:30:28.319 start getting familiar with the things 4767 03:30:28.319 --> 03:30:31.260 in your everyday life in English 4768 03:30:31.260 --> 03:30:33.660 repeat phrases you hear native speakers 4769 03:30:33.660 --> 03:30:36.899 use tip number two is to repeat the 4770 03:30:36.899 --> 03:30:38.819 phrases that you hear native speakers 4771 03:30:38.819 --> 03:30:41.640 use so if you're watching this channel 4772 03:30:41.640 --> 03:30:45.120 for example or you're watching a TV show 4773 03:30:45.120 --> 03:30:48.660 or a movie uh listen for the way that 4774 03:30:48.660 --> 03:30:51.540 native speakers make those phrases if 4775 03:30:51.540 --> 03:30:53.399 you hear a phrase you have never heard 4776 03:30:53.399 --> 03:30:55.620 before or you hear an interesting 4777 03:30:55.620 --> 03:30:58.859 combination of words try to repeat them 4778 03:30:58.859 --> 03:31:02.100 yourself don't just listen try to say 4779 03:31:02.100 --> 03:31:04.020 them yourself if you're in a public 4780 03:31:04.020 --> 03:31:06.000 space and it's difficult for you to do 4781 03:31:06.000 --> 03:31:08.640 that fine practice in a place where you 4782 03:31:08.640 --> 03:31:10.680 feel more comfortable maybe if you have 4783 03:31:10.680 --> 03:31:13.020 some private space to practice just 4784 03:31:13.020 --> 03:31:15.060 repeat them get your mouth used to 4785 03:31:15.060 --> 03:31:17.040 saying the words the way that the 4786 03:31:17.040 --> 03:31:20.040 speakers the native speakers do so if 4787 03:31:20.040 --> 03:31:22.319 you never actually say words if you're 4788 03:31:22.319 --> 03:31:24.840 only taking in if you're only listening 4789 03:31:24.840 --> 03:31:27.000 and you're not actually producing the 4790 03:31:27.000 --> 03:31:29.879 language it's it's kind of hard to to 4791 03:31:29.879 --> 03:31:31.979 practice and to 4792 03:31:31.979 --> 03:31:34.200 um to really hone your pronunciation to 4793 03:31:34.200 --> 03:31:36.899 improve your pronunciation so when you 4794 03:31:36.899 --> 03:31:39.239 listen to native speakers try to repeat 4795 03:31:39.239 --> 03:31:41.760 after them so for example if you're 4796 03:31:41.760 --> 03:31:43.859 studying English you can try to repeat 4797 03:31:43.859 --> 03:31:46.260 after this video you can repeat after 4798 03:31:46.260 --> 03:31:48.959 the things I'm saying because maybe I'm 4799 03:31:48.959 --> 03:31:51.600 using an expression or I'm using a 4800 03:31:51.600 --> 03:31:54.300 certain series of vocabulary words 4801 03:31:54.300 --> 03:31:56.819 together the way a native speaker would 4802 03:31:56.819 --> 03:32:00.239 and it's maybe a good idea to try to 4803 03:32:00.239 --> 03:32:02.100 practice the ways that native speakers 4804 03:32:02.100 --> 03:32:04.260 put their words together so try to 4805 03:32:04.260 --> 03:32:07.200 repeat after native speakers especially 4806 03:32:07.200 --> 03:32:09.540 when you're looking at media and you can 4807 03:32:09.540 --> 03:32:11.040 do this when you're reading books too 4808 03:32:11.040 --> 03:32:13.859 you can try to read out read out loud 4809 03:32:13.859 --> 03:32:16.020 interesting lines of books that you find 4810 03:32:16.020 --> 03:32:17.459 or something that may be as difficult 4811 03:32:17.459 --> 03:32:20.459 for you very nice practice tip make a 4812 03:32:20.459 --> 03:32:22.560 situation where you can't escape into 4813 03:32:22.560 --> 03:32:25.020 your native language make a situation 4814 03:32:25.020 --> 03:32:26.879 where you can't escape into your native 4815 03:32:26.879 --> 03:32:29.520 language essentially means immerse 4816 03:32:29.520 --> 03:32:31.800 yourself of course going to the that 4817 03:32:31.800 --> 03:32:34.680 country are going to a place where you 4818 03:32:34.680 --> 03:32:37.140 can speak only that language is very 4819 03:32:37.140 --> 03:32:38.939 difficult for some of you totally 4820 03:32:38.939 --> 03:32:42.300 understand but if in your life you can 4821 03:32:42.300 --> 03:32:44.939 create a situation in your library in 4822 03:32:44.939 --> 03:32:47.939 your room in your house somewhere for 4823 03:32:47.939 --> 03:32:50.340 just an hour or I don't know maybe a day 4824 03:32:50.340 --> 03:32:51.840 I don't know what your schedule is like 4825 03:32:51.840 --> 03:32:54.540 but if you can create a situation or 4826 03:32:54.540 --> 03:32:57.180 create an environment where you have no 4827 03:32:57.180 --> 03:33:00.720 choice but to use that language and you 4828 03:33:00.720 --> 03:33:04.140 cannot Escape meaning you cannot go back 4829 03:33:04.140 --> 03:33:06.660 to using your native language as a 4830 03:33:06.660 --> 03:33:08.520 crutch you can't use the native language 4831 03:33:08.520 --> 03:33:12.180 at all it forces you to use the language 4832 03:33:12.180 --> 03:33:14.700 that you're studying so of course if you 4833 03:33:14.700 --> 03:33:16.739 are lucky enough to live in the country 4834 03:33:16.739 --> 03:33:19.560 or to live in a place where people speak 4835 03:33:19.560 --> 03:33:21.720 the language you're studying great but 4836 03:33:21.720 --> 03:33:23.879 you have to go out and interact with 4837 03:33:23.879 --> 03:33:26.040 people you have to put yourself in a 4838 03:33:26.040 --> 03:33:28.560 place where you have no choice but to 4839 03:33:28.560 --> 03:33:30.479 speak it's very hard and it's very scary 4840 03:33:30.479 --> 03:33:33.120 and it's very embarrassing at first but 4841 03:33:33.120 --> 03:33:35.879 if you take time to find places and to 4842 03:33:35.879 --> 03:33:37.680 make environments that are comfortable 4843 03:33:37.680 --> 03:33:39.540 for you where you feel comfortable 4844 03:33:39.540 --> 03:33:41.700 making mistakes and asking questions 4845 03:33:41.700 --> 03:33:44.100 it's very valuable for your learning 4846 03:33:44.100 --> 03:33:45.779 process this is actually something that 4847 03:33:45.779 --> 03:33:48.120 I did totally I totally did this my 4848 03:33:48.120 --> 03:33:50.939 Japanese wasn't very good for a long 4849 03:33:50.939 --> 03:33:53.100 time but then I started making friends 4850 03:33:53.100 --> 03:33:56.520 who could not speak English actually I 4851 03:33:56.520 --> 03:33:58.140 just did this through finding Hobbies 4852 03:33:58.140 --> 03:34:00.899 there was a hobby that I had I joined a 4853 03:34:00.899 --> 03:34:02.700 group I joined actually a school to 4854 03:34:02.700 --> 03:34:04.620 where I could learn how to do that Hobby 4855 03:34:04.620 --> 03:34:07.379 and everything was taught only in 4856 03:34:07.379 --> 03:34:10.140 Japanese and the people in my class only 4857 03:34:10.140 --> 03:34:12.540 spoke Japanese mostly and then maybe we 4858 03:34:12.540 --> 03:34:15.120 would go out for drinks and food late at 4859 03:34:15.120 --> 03:34:16.680 night or on the weekends and everybody 4860 03:34:16.680 --> 03:34:19.680 spoke only Japanese and if I couldn't 4861 03:34:19.680 --> 03:34:22.739 communicate even simply in Japanese I 4862 03:34:22.739 --> 03:34:24.660 had no hope of keeping that friendship 4863 03:34:24.660 --> 03:34:27.180 together so it forced me to study it 4864 03:34:27.180 --> 03:34:29.160 forced me to think about the words they 4865 03:34:29.160 --> 03:34:32.040 were using and to try to learn those 4866 03:34:32.040 --> 03:34:34.319 words those patterns as well as how to 4867 03:34:34.319 --> 03:34:36.479 produce them naturally myself so I was 4868 03:34:36.479 --> 03:34:38.700 learning the vocabulary words the people 4869 03:34:38.700 --> 03:34:41.399 around me were using and learning how to 4870 03:34:41.399 --> 03:34:43.439 apply them on my own that was only 4871 03:34:43.439 --> 03:34:45.899 possible because I had no Escape in 4872 03:34:45.899 --> 03:34:49.080 those situations so try to do that even 4873 03:34:49.080 --> 03:34:50.819 if you can do it yourself in your house 4874 03:34:50.819 --> 03:34:52.979 it's super helpful I think 4875 03:34:52.979 --> 03:34:55.379 watch TV and movies in your target 4876 03:34:55.379 --> 03:34:57.540 language without subtitles 4877 03:34:57.540 --> 03:35:00.060 tip number four is to watch TV and 4878 03:35:00.060 --> 03:35:02.540 movies in your target language without 4879 03:35:02.540 --> 03:35:05.640 subtitles without subtitles so I think 4880 03:35:05.640 --> 03:35:09.060 that watching uh with subtitles can be 4881 03:35:09.060 --> 03:35:10.520 very beneficial 4882 03:35:10.520 --> 03:35:13.920 so if I'm watching something or if you 4883 03:35:13.920 --> 03:35:15.720 want to watch something with subtitles 4884 03:35:15.720 --> 03:35:19.200 on great but I sometimes find that I can 4885 03:35:19.200 --> 03:35:21.660 in my case I I think too much about 4886 03:35:21.660 --> 03:35:24.180 reading the subtitles and I forget to 4887 03:35:24.180 --> 03:35:26.939 listen so maybe if you've seen a movie 4888 03:35:26.939 --> 03:35:30.600 in your target language a few times with 4889 03:35:30.600 --> 03:35:33.180 the subtitles on try turning the 4890 03:35:33.180 --> 03:35:36.359 subtitles off and think about the like 4891 03:35:36.359 --> 03:35:38.040 character's body language the words 4892 03:35:38.040 --> 03:35:40.620 they're using you can always look that 4893 03:35:40.620 --> 03:35:42.600 up later look up the you know the words 4894 03:35:42.600 --> 03:35:44.819 you don't know in a dictionary but try 4895 03:35:44.819 --> 03:35:46.800 to do it where you're focusing 4896 03:35:46.800 --> 03:35:49.739 completely on the way that people are 4897 03:35:49.739 --> 03:35:52.200 using their words try not to use the 4898 03:35:52.200 --> 03:35:55.080 subtitles so kind of play around with it 4899 03:35:55.080 --> 03:35:56.520 a little bit if there's a word that's 4900 03:35:56.520 --> 03:35:58.500 difficult for you to here you can 4901 03:35:58.500 --> 03:36:01.020 actually turn on the subtitles in like 4902 03:36:01.020 --> 03:36:03.600 the in the native language of the movie 4903 03:36:03.600 --> 03:36:05.700 as well that's something that I've done 4904 03:36:05.700 --> 03:36:08.100 like if uh like if I wanted to study 4905 03:36:08.100 --> 03:36:10.319 Japanese it's very useful when the 4906 03:36:10.319 --> 03:36:13.439 actual words spoken in Japanese appear 4907 03:36:13.439 --> 03:36:15.779 on the screen sometimes it's easier for 4908 03:36:15.779 --> 03:36:19.080 me to catch a word if I see it visually 4909 03:36:19.080 --> 03:36:21.840 and I hear it at the same time so 4910 03:36:21.840 --> 03:36:25.379 another way to kind of explore how you 4911 03:36:25.379 --> 03:36:28.020 can use TV and movies is to actually 4912 03:36:28.020 --> 03:36:31.379 turn on the closed captions like the the 4913 03:36:31.379 --> 03:36:33.779 um the words on the screen in the native 4914 03:36:33.779 --> 03:36:36.660 language of the movie so uh so this is 4915 03:36:36.660 --> 03:36:38.819 sort of two points in one so one watch 4916 03:36:38.819 --> 03:36:40.620 movies without subtitles meaning 4917 03:36:40.620 --> 03:36:43.140 subtitles in your native language in 4918 03:36:43.140 --> 03:36:46.379 hint too is to watch movies with closed 4919 03:36:46.379 --> 03:36:48.540 captioning on but the closed captioning 4920 03:36:48.540 --> 03:36:50.939 is in your target language not in your 4921 03:36:50.939 --> 03:36:52.800 native language so you can try those two 4922 03:36:52.800 --> 03:36:55.800 things with TV and with movies 4923 03:36:55.800 --> 03:36:58.560 don't bring a dictionary to your lesson 4924 03:36:58.560 --> 03:37:00.779 tip number five is don't bring a 4925 03:37:00.779 --> 03:37:04.020 dictionary to your lesson okay so give 4926 03:37:04.020 --> 03:37:06.060 me a second here so I understand the 4927 03:37:06.060 --> 03:37:08.220 dictionaries especially electronic 4928 03:37:08.220 --> 03:37:10.080 dictionaries we have them on our phones 4929 03:37:10.080 --> 03:37:12.600 now are very very convenient 4930 03:37:12.600 --> 03:37:14.220 um of course it's important to use them 4931 03:37:14.220 --> 03:37:16.080 and it's they're a great resource to 4932 03:37:16.080 --> 03:37:19.080 have however one thing that really 4933 03:37:19.080 --> 03:37:22.979 bothers me and that I think is 4934 03:37:22.979 --> 03:37:25.200 detrimental it's not helpful for 4935 03:37:25.200 --> 03:37:28.200 students is when students are in a 4936 03:37:28.200 --> 03:37:29.520 lesson and they're practicing 4937 03:37:29.520 --> 03:37:32.459 conversation and they reach a point in 4938 03:37:32.459 --> 03:37:34.500 the conversation where they don't know 4939 03:37:34.500 --> 03:37:36.420 the word they want to use they know it 4940 03:37:36.420 --> 03:37:38.399 in their native language and they don't 4941 03:37:38.399 --> 03:37:40.200 know how to say it in their target 4942 03:37:40.200 --> 03:37:42.359 language they pull out their dictionary 4943 03:37:42.359 --> 03:37:44.939 they say to this the person listening to 4944 03:37:44.939 --> 03:37:46.979 them their practice partner in their 4945 03:37:46.979 --> 03:37:48.959 lesson where they have a limited period 4946 03:37:48.959 --> 03:37:51.720 of time just a moment and then they look 4947 03:37:51.720 --> 03:37:54.180 it up on their phone and it takes a few 4948 03:37:54.180 --> 03:37:56.459 seconds the flow of the conversation 4949 03:37:56.459 --> 03:38:00.000 stops and then they say a word and I was 4950 03:38:00.000 --> 03:38:03.479 like whoa no that's not you don't have 4951 03:38:03.479 --> 03:38:06.060 that ability you don't have the ability 4952 03:38:06.060 --> 03:38:08.399 to do that in a conversation with a 4953 03:38:08.399 --> 03:38:10.739 native speaker most people like if you 4954 03:38:10.739 --> 03:38:12.479 go to a bank and try to open a bank 4955 03:38:12.479 --> 03:38:14.040 account are you really going to pull out 4956 03:38:14.040 --> 03:38:16.939 your dictionary and sit there and try to 4957 03:38:16.939 --> 03:38:19.200 communicate you know just a moment just 4958 03:38:19.200 --> 03:38:21.720 a moment as you look up each word you 4959 03:38:21.720 --> 03:38:24.359 don't know no or if you do that's not a 4960 03:38:24.359 --> 03:38:28.319 real conversation so instead try using a 4961 03:38:28.319 --> 03:38:30.840 different strategy by that I mean if you 4962 03:38:30.840 --> 03:38:32.700 find a word you don't know in 4963 03:38:32.700 --> 03:38:35.760 conversation explain the word to your 4964 03:38:35.760 --> 03:38:38.160 conversation partner maybe they know the 4965 03:38:38.160 --> 03:38:39.660 word if you're speaking with a native 4966 03:38:39.660 --> 03:38:41.580 speaker this is a chance for them to 4967 03:38:41.580 --> 03:38:44.040 teach you a word I find that when people 4968 03:38:44.040 --> 03:38:46.920 take the time to teach me a word I 4969 03:38:46.920 --> 03:38:49.260 remember the word much better than just 4970 03:38:49.260 --> 03:38:51.959 looking it up on my dictionary so try to 4971 03:38:51.959 --> 03:38:53.819 resist maybe you can bring a dictionary 4972 03:38:53.819 --> 03:38:56.160 to your lesson but don't use it or try 4973 03:38:56.160 --> 03:38:58.439 not to use it in your conversation 4974 03:38:58.439 --> 03:39:00.899 practice this it's just it destroys the 4975 03:39:00.899 --> 03:39:03.120 flow of a conversation so instead 4976 03:39:03.120 --> 03:39:05.760 practice the skill of describing the 4977 03:39:05.760 --> 03:39:08.340 vocabulary word you want to use and 4978 03:39:08.340 --> 03:39:10.979 learn how to ask the meaning of a word 4979 03:39:10.979 --> 03:39:13.680 or learn how to ask for a vocabulary 4980 03:39:13.680 --> 03:39:16.200 word from your partner so you can use an 4981 03:39:16.200 --> 03:39:18.180 expression like ah what's the word that 4982 03:39:18.180 --> 03:39:20.520 means blah blah blah or 4983 03:39:20.520 --> 03:39:22.319 um you know it's this thing that does 4984 03:39:22.319 --> 03:39:24.300 this and this and this so this is an 4985 03:39:24.300 --> 03:39:26.100 opportunity for you to describe 4986 03:39:26.100 --> 03:39:28.800 characteristics of something or find a 4987 03:39:28.800 --> 03:39:30.779 different way you can use your body 4988 03:39:30.779 --> 03:39:33.600 language you can use whatever you have a 4989 03:39:33.600 --> 03:39:36.120 lot of tools but try not to use a 4990 03:39:36.120 --> 03:39:37.800 dictionary in a conversation because 4991 03:39:37.800 --> 03:39:39.959 it's not realistic 4992 03:39:39.959 --> 03:39:42.959 train responses to common questions 4993 03:39:42.959 --> 03:39:45.239 number six is a quick one I think number 4994 03:39:45.239 --> 03:39:47.640 six hint number six I have is just to 4995 03:39:47.640 --> 03:39:49.739 train responses to common questions 4996 03:39:49.739 --> 03:39:52.379 train responses to common questions so 4997 03:39:52.379 --> 03:39:54.959 for example a very common question in 4998 03:39:54.959 --> 03:39:57.239 English is hey how are you you should 4999 03:39:57.239 --> 03:39:59.340 know how to answer this question just 5000 03:39:59.340 --> 03:40:01.800 have a default response hey how are you 5001 03:40:01.800 --> 03:40:05.819 I'm good like if it takes you a long 5002 03:40:05.819 --> 03:40:08.459 time to answer the question hey how are 5003 03:40:08.459 --> 03:40:11.459 you you need to practice I think that's 5004 03:40:11.459 --> 03:40:14.220 a pretty good uh a pretty good indicator 5005 03:40:14.220 --> 03:40:16.920 so for example sometimes I ask students 5006 03:40:16.920 --> 03:40:19.319 a question like that they they haven't 5007 03:40:19.319 --> 03:40:22.739 quite gotten the idea of how to respond 5008 03:40:22.739 --> 03:40:25.379 just yet they they're not so quick at 5009 03:40:25.379 --> 03:40:27.779 responding I say uh hey how are you and 5010 03:40:27.779 --> 03:40:28.920 they say yes 5011 03:40:28.920 --> 03:40:31.979 and then they think and they go I'm uh 5012 03:40:31.979 --> 03:40:34.979 uh I'm not good and it's like that's a 5013 03:40:34.979 --> 03:40:37.739 very common question so think about just 5014 03:40:37.739 --> 03:40:40.080 a default response that you can spit out 5015 03:40:40.080 --> 03:40:42.359 that you can quickly say if it's how was 5016 03:40:42.359 --> 03:40:45.060 your weekend or hey what's up or what do 5017 03:40:45.060 --> 03:40:46.979 you want to do for dinner tonight think 5018 03:40:46.979 --> 03:40:50.340 about like just a handful meaning just a 5019 03:40:50.340 --> 03:40:53.160 few responses to those questions and 5020 03:40:53.160 --> 03:40:55.680 train them quickly just how are you I'm 5021 03:40:55.680 --> 03:40:57.840 good how are you I'm okay how are you 5022 03:40:57.840 --> 03:41:01.439 not bad there's three so it's just 5023 03:41:01.439 --> 03:41:03.899 training responses to those questions 5024 03:41:03.899 --> 03:41:07.140 there's no reason to be surprised by a 5025 03:41:07.140 --> 03:41:09.540 question like how are you like that's a 5026 03:41:09.540 --> 03:41:11.700 very common question so for those common 5027 03:41:11.700 --> 03:41:14.459 questions train responses to that we've 5028 03:41:14.459 --> 03:41:16.500 got a bunch of videos especially 5029 03:41:16.500 --> 03:41:18.779 beginner level videos for some example 5030 03:41:18.779 --> 03:41:22.500 responses you can do so don't get stuck 5031 03:41:22.500 --> 03:41:24.600 with these little questions just train a 5032 03:41:24.600 --> 03:41:26.580 few responses practice a few responses 5033 03:41:26.580 --> 03:41:28.560 till they feel natural to you it'll save 5034 03:41:28.560 --> 03:41:30.359 you time and it'll help the person 5035 03:41:30.359 --> 03:41:32.459 asking the question to to move forward 5036 03:41:32.459 --> 03:41:35.160 in the conversation yay 5037 03:41:35.160 --> 03:41:37.500 study with materials that don't provide 5038 03:41:37.500 --> 03:41:39.180 a translation 5039 03:41:39.180 --> 03:41:42.120 the next tip is to study with materials 5040 03:41:42.120 --> 03:41:45.000 that don't provide a translation so by 5041 03:41:45.000 --> 03:41:47.459 this I mean if you're using worksheets 5042 03:41:47.459 --> 03:41:50.580 and or some kind of textbook or whatever 5043 03:41:50.580 --> 03:41:54.060 and it has your target language the 5044 03:41:54.060 --> 03:41:56.340 language you're studying and it has your 5045 03:41:56.340 --> 03:41:58.680 native language next to it while this 5046 03:41:58.680 --> 03:42:02.160 can be useful I feel that if you can 5047 03:42:02.160 --> 03:42:05.340 studying your materials only in your 5048 03:42:05.340 --> 03:42:07.560 target language and then simplified 5049 03:42:07.560 --> 03:42:10.560 explanations for more detailed points 5050 03:42:10.560 --> 03:42:13.319 also in your target language can be a 5051 03:42:13.319 --> 03:42:16.140 little bit better so I don't want to say 5052 03:42:16.140 --> 03:42:18.060 like you should only study things in 5053 03:42:18.060 --> 03:42:19.920 your target language and nothing from 5054 03:42:19.920 --> 03:42:21.540 your native language because of course 5055 03:42:21.540 --> 03:42:24.060 like it's it can be helpful sometimes to 5056 03:42:24.060 --> 03:42:25.859 look up a word or to understand a 5057 03:42:25.859 --> 03:42:27.300 grammar point in your native language 5058 03:42:27.300 --> 03:42:30.660 but where possible if you can find 5059 03:42:30.660 --> 03:42:32.600 something that provides simplified 5060 03:42:32.600 --> 03:42:35.520 explanations in your target language it 5061 03:42:35.520 --> 03:42:37.200 can be really really helpful because 5062 03:42:37.200 --> 03:42:39.120 again you're thinking you're learning to 5063 03:42:39.120 --> 03:42:42.000 think on like a simpler on a more basic 5064 03:42:42.000 --> 03:42:44.459 level about the language you're studying 5065 03:42:44.459 --> 03:42:46.859 in the language that you're studying so 5066 03:42:46.859 --> 03:42:48.600 this can be really really good so 5067 03:42:48.600 --> 03:42:50.939 finding some materials to use where 5068 03:42:50.939 --> 03:42:53.520 there's no translation maybe you can 5069 03:42:53.520 --> 03:42:54.779 practice 5070 03:42:54.779 --> 03:42:56.640 um of course with with books and with 5071 03:42:56.640 --> 03:42:59.040 written materials but also with like 5072 03:42:59.040 --> 03:43:01.920 video materials as well so there are a 5073 03:43:01.920 --> 03:43:05.220 variety of different ways that you can 5074 03:43:05.220 --> 03:43:05.819 um 5075 03:43:05.819 --> 03:43:08.779 find materials in your target language 5076 03:43:08.779 --> 03:43:12.060 like in video and TV so some things to 5077 03:43:12.060 --> 03:43:13.859 think about there are the level of 5078 03:43:13.859 --> 03:43:16.319 vocabulary words people are using in the 5079 03:43:16.319 --> 03:43:18.840 media content you're watching who the 5080 03:43:18.840 --> 03:43:21.060 media content is intended for children 5081 03:43:21.060 --> 03:43:24.180 young adults adults the speed at which 5082 03:43:24.180 --> 03:43:26.040 the speaker is talking so like I have 5083 03:43:26.040 --> 03:43:28.200 the ability to change the level of 5084 03:43:28.200 --> 03:43:31.739 difficulty of videos based on the rate 5085 03:43:31.739 --> 03:43:34.020 of speech the vocabulary words that I 5086 03:43:34.020 --> 03:43:36.000 use and how many like idioms and things 5087 03:43:36.000 --> 03:43:37.979 I use so I could make a video very 5088 03:43:37.979 --> 03:43:39.600 difficult we could make a very like a 5089 03:43:39.600 --> 03:43:42.720 very difficult video series by leveling 5090 03:43:42.720 --> 03:43:44.879 up our vocabulary use or by speaking 5091 03:43:44.879 --> 03:43:47.939 very quickly or as you might see in like 5092 03:43:47.939 --> 03:43:50.879 our English in three minutes series we 5093 03:43:50.879 --> 03:43:53.819 can also use very simple vocabulary and 5094 03:43:53.819 --> 03:43:55.859 speak at a low rate of speech so maybe 5095 03:43:55.859 --> 03:43:58.020 right now this is a very intermediate 5096 03:43:58.020 --> 03:44:00.420 level video so please think about that 5097 03:44:00.420 --> 03:44:03.540 so not just for written materials but 5098 03:44:03.540 --> 03:44:05.760 also for your audio and visual materials 5099 03:44:05.760 --> 03:44:08.760 think about who your audience is the 5100 03:44:08.760 --> 03:44:11.100 level of the material and so on it can 5101 03:44:11.100 --> 03:44:13.800 be really fun and it can be helpful to 5102 03:44:13.800 --> 03:44:16.500 think about your your target language in 5103 03:44:16.500 --> 03:44:18.000 your target language all right we're 5104 03:44:18.000 --> 03:44:19.560 almost done 5105 03:44:19.560 --> 03:44:21.840 study phrases in addition to single 5106 03:44:21.840 --> 03:44:23.160 vocabulary 5107 03:44:23.160 --> 03:44:25.979 the next tip is study phrases in 5108 03:44:25.979 --> 03:44:28.500 addition to single vocabulary words so 5109 03:44:28.500 --> 03:44:31.020 yes of course vocabulary is important 5110 03:44:31.020 --> 03:44:34.379 but I find it personally very very 5111 03:44:34.379 --> 03:44:37.920 useful to look at how a vocabulary word 5112 03:44:37.920 --> 03:44:41.700 is used in a phrase because sometimes 5113 03:44:41.700 --> 03:44:44.459 using it in a phrase helps you 5114 03:44:44.459 --> 03:44:47.160 understand the Nuance of that vocabulary 5115 03:44:47.160 --> 03:44:50.459 word really really well so if I like a 5116 03:44:50.459 --> 03:44:52.459 word like crazy for example in English 5117 03:44:52.459 --> 03:44:55.020 depending on the situation where the 5118 03:44:55.020 --> 03:44:57.120 word crazy is used it could mean 5119 03:44:57.120 --> 03:44:59.520 something different it could mean like a 5120 03:44:59.520 --> 03:45:02.220 person who is mentally confused or mixed 5121 03:45:02.220 --> 03:45:03.840 up it could also mean something really 5122 03:45:03.840 --> 03:45:05.700 good it could mean something really bad 5123 03:45:05.700 --> 03:45:08.700 so if we look only at the word crazy 5124 03:45:08.700 --> 03:45:10.800 it's quite difficult to understand 5125 03:45:10.800 --> 03:45:13.859 really the meaning of the word but if 5126 03:45:13.859 --> 03:45:15.779 you look at the way the word is used in 5127 03:45:15.779 --> 03:45:17.939 a phrase you can get a lot more 5128 03:45:17.939 --> 03:45:20.040 information so take a look at the way 5129 03:45:20.040 --> 03:45:23.100 people use words in phrases not just as 5130 03:45:23.100 --> 03:45:25.560 single vocabulary words you can learn a 5131 03:45:25.560 --> 03:45:27.840 lot more that way I think 5132 03:45:27.840 --> 03:45:29.819 do your daily activities in English 5133 03:45:29.819 --> 03:45:31.379 where possible 5134 03:45:31.379 --> 03:45:33.359 the next tip is to do your daily 5135 03:45:33.359 --> 03:45:36.239 activities in your target language so if 5136 03:45:36.239 --> 03:45:37.859 you're studying English that means try 5137 03:45:37.859 --> 03:45:40.020 to do some daily activities in English 5138 03:45:40.020 --> 03:45:42.600 if possible so this can be very very 5139 03:45:42.600 --> 03:45:44.700 boring stuff but just think about it 5140 03:45:44.700 --> 03:45:46.920 when you're doing the activity so like 5141 03:45:46.920 --> 03:45:49.020 right now I'm filming a video for 5142 03:45:49.020 --> 03:45:52.080 English class 101.com or I'm going to 5143 03:45:52.080 --> 03:45:54.479 work I'm cooking breakfast I'm doing the 5144 03:45:54.479 --> 03:45:56.879 laundry what do I have to do tomorrow so 5145 03:45:56.879 --> 03:46:00.239 try thinking about your everyday life in 5146 03:46:00.239 --> 03:46:02.640 English if you're studying English try 5147 03:46:02.640 --> 03:46:04.620 thinking about your everyday activities 5148 03:46:04.620 --> 03:46:06.840 the people that you meet what are you 5149 03:46:06.840 --> 03:46:08.819 doing so this is a way to help you 5150 03:46:08.819 --> 03:46:10.979 practice your verbs so if you don't know 5151 03:46:10.979 --> 03:46:12.720 if you're I don't know you're doing 5152 03:46:12.720 --> 03:46:14.279 something at work and you're like oh my 5153 03:46:14.279 --> 03:46:16.319 gosh how do I explain the what's the 5154 03:46:16.319 --> 03:46:19.500 verb for you know a picture like I want 5155 03:46:19.500 --> 03:46:21.359 to blah blah blah a picture what's the 5156 03:46:21.359 --> 03:46:23.819 word you can check a dictionary at that 5157 03:46:23.819 --> 03:46:26.279 point and go oh it's draw I need to use 5158 03:46:26.279 --> 03:46:29.340 the verb draw for draw a picture so you 5159 03:46:29.340 --> 03:46:31.439 can find these little gaps in your 5160 03:46:31.439 --> 03:46:33.720 everyday life these little gaps in your 5161 03:46:33.720 --> 03:46:36.420 knowledge if you think about your 5162 03:46:36.420 --> 03:46:38.160 everyday activities in your target 5163 03:46:38.160 --> 03:46:39.959 language if you don't think about it in 5164 03:46:39.959 --> 03:46:41.640 your target language you might not 5165 03:46:41.640 --> 03:46:43.920 realize you have vocabulary gaps or 5166 03:46:43.920 --> 03:46:45.840 phrase gaps here and there so this is a 5167 03:46:45.840 --> 03:46:47.580 really good and kind of funny actually 5168 03:46:47.580 --> 03:46:51.060 way to study use a Learner's Dictionary 5169 03:46:51.060 --> 03:46:54.600 for new words the last tip is to use a 5170 03:46:54.600 --> 03:46:57.120 Learner's Dictionary for new words so in 5171 03:46:57.120 --> 03:46:59.160 English there are Learners dictionaries 5172 03:46:59.160 --> 03:47:01.739 available in English so my favorite my 5173 03:47:01.739 --> 03:47:03.319 personal favorite is Merriam-Webster 5174 03:47:03.319 --> 03:47:05.879 Merriam-Webster is a fantastic 5175 03:47:05.879 --> 03:47:07.920 dictionary resource they're so 5176 03:47:07.920 --> 03:47:10.080 interesting and they have tons of like 5177 03:47:10.080 --> 03:47:12.959 historical information I really do just 5178 03:47:12.959 --> 03:47:15.120 sit and like read things on the 5179 03:47:15.120 --> 03:47:19.680 dictionary page lately it's true but of 5180 03:47:19.680 --> 03:47:21.359 course there's a definition there's a 5181 03:47:21.359 --> 03:47:22.920 meaning for Words there are example 5182 03:47:22.920 --> 03:47:25.500 sentences for words but Merriam-Webster 5183 03:47:25.500 --> 03:47:27.840 also has what's called a Learner's 5184 03:47:27.840 --> 03:47:29.760 Dictionary if you find a word that you 5185 03:47:29.760 --> 03:47:32.520 don't recognize you can check it in a 5186 03:47:32.520 --> 03:47:34.620 dictionary in a Learner's Dictionary and 5187 03:47:34.620 --> 03:47:37.080 it gives you a simplified a simple 5188 03:47:37.080 --> 03:47:40.260 explanation in simple English of that 5189 03:47:40.260 --> 03:47:43.020 word so instead of checking it in your 5190 03:47:43.020 --> 03:47:45.000 native language you can check it in your 5191 03:47:45.000 --> 03:47:47.399 target language

03:47:56.459 from the language you're studying not 5195 03:47:56.459 --> 03:47:58.379 from your native language so using a 5196 03:47:58.379 --> 03:48:00.000 Learner's Dictionary can be really 5197

I'm a 5282 03:51:45.540 --> 03:51:49.080 good fit for the company and its goals 5283 03:51:49.080 --> 03:51:50.939 why should we hire you 5284 03:51:50.939 --> 03:51:53.279 the next interview question is why 5285 03:51:53.279 --> 03:51:55.800 should we hire you why should we hire 5286 03:51:55.800 --> 03:51:58.979 you so this is your opportunity to 5287 03:51:58.979 --> 03:52:02.340 explain why you feel you are the best 5288 03:52:02.340 --> 03:52:05.220 candidate for the job so if you have any 5289 03:52:05.220 --> 03:52:07.500 special qualifications you have 5290 03:52:07.500 --> 03:52:09.600 certifications you have specific 5291 03:52:09.600 --> 03:52:12.180 experience you have a specific goal in 5292 03:52:12.180 --> 03:52:14.700 mind this is the kind of question you 5293 03:52:14.700 --> 03:52:17.399 can share that information in response 5294 03:52:17.399 --> 03:52:20.760 to why should we hire you because I can 5295 03:52:20.760 --> 03:52:23.279 speak six different languages and I know 5296 03:52:23.279 --> 03:52:26.880 how to create a website in 10 minutes I 5297 03:52:26.880 --> 03:52:29.760 don't know so if you have some kind of 5298 03:52:29.760 --> 03:52:31.979 special qualifications you can share 5299 03:52:31.979 --> 03:52:34.500 those qualifications in response to this 5300 03:52:34.500 --> 03:52:37.020 question in another example sentence I'm 5301 03:52:37.020 --> 03:52:39.300 a goal-oriented person who likes to work 5302 03:52:39.300 --> 03:52:41.460 at a fast pace 5303 03:52:41.460 --> 03:52:43.319 what do you consider your strengths and 5304 03:52:43.319 --> 03:52:44.460 weaknesses 5305 03:52:44.460 --> 03:52:46.739 the next question is a common question 5306 03:52:46.739 --> 03:52:49.739 what do you consider your strengths and 5307 03:52:49.739 --> 03:52:52.020 weaknesses what do you consider your 5308 03:52:52.020 --> 03:52:54.420 strengths and weaknesses or what are 5309 03:52:54.420 --> 03:52:56.460 your strengths and weaknesses so 5310 03:52:56.460 --> 03:52:58.800 strengths means strong points things you 5311 03:52:58.800 --> 03:53:01.080 are good at weaknesses is your weak 5312 03:53:01.080 --> 03:53:03.000 points things you are not very good at 5313 03:53:03.000 --> 03:53:05.939 so you could you should be honest to a 5314 03:53:05.939 --> 03:53:08.580 degree but be careful so this should be 5315 03:53:08.580 --> 03:53:11.100 in a professional setting keep that in 5316 03:53:11.100 --> 03:53:13.500 mind it's a professional setting if you 5317 03:53:13.500 --> 03:53:15.239 want to talk about your weaknesses don't 5318 03:53:15.239 --> 03:53:17.819 say like uh I eat too much chocolate or 5319 03:53:17.819 --> 03:53:19.800 don't say like I love sleeping or 5320 03:53:19.800 --> 03:53:22.080 whatever talk about your professional 5321 03:53:22.080 --> 03:53:23.760 strengths and your professional 5322 03:53:23.760 --> 03:53:26.279 weaknesses and also with your weaknesses 5323 03:53:26.279 --> 03:53:28.319 it would be a good idea to talk about 5324 03:53:28.319 --> 03:53:31.680 how you improve those weaknesses or how 5325 03:53:31.680 --> 03:53:33.899 you work with your team members or work 5326 03:53:33.899 --> 03:53:38.040 in a company to try to reduce the effect 5327 03:53:38.040 --> 03:53:40.800 of those weaknesses so for example I'm 5328 03:53:40.800 --> 03:53:43.920 very detail-oriented but I often take on 5329 03:53:43.920 --> 03:53:46.500 too much at one time 5330 03:53:46.500 --> 03:53:48.540 um so like in my case that's the case 5331 03:53:48.540 --> 03:53:50.760 like I'm very detail oriented but I 5332 03:53:50.760 --> 03:53:53.399 often take on too much so do too many 5333 03:53:53.399 --> 03:53:56.340 things at one time so I could explain 5334 03:53:56.340 --> 03:53:59.700 okay so I'm very detail oriented but uh 5335 03:53:59.700 --> 03:54:02.100 if I'm trying to take on too much I try 5336 03:54:02.100 --> 03:54:04.500 maybe I say I communicate with my 5337 03:54:04.500 --> 03:54:06.420 co-workers about what should be 5338 03:54:06.420 --> 03:54:09.300 prioritized and that helps me organize 5339 03:54:09.300 --> 03:54:11.399 my time better so when you introduce 5340 03:54:11.399 --> 03:54:13.859 your weakness talk about the ways you 5341 03:54:13.859 --> 03:54:16.439 kind of you try to reduce the effect of 5342 03:54:16.439 --> 03:54:18.359 that weakness that can be one technique 5343 03:54:18.359 --> 03:54:20.279 so your good points and your bad points 5344 03:54:20.279 --> 03:54:21.540 in this question 5345 03:54:21.540 --> 03:54:23.819 tell me about a time when you overcame a 5346 03:54:23.819 --> 03:54:26.640 challenge at work some interviewers may 5347 03:54:26.640 --> 03:54:29.100 ask this question tell me about a time 5348 03:54:29.100 --> 03:54:31.680 when you overcame a challenge at work so 5349 03:54:31.680 --> 03:54:33.120 it's not really a question they're 5350 03:54:33.120 --> 03:54:35.640 asking you to tell a story so tell me 5351 03:54:35.640 --> 03:54:37.560 about a time when you overcame a 5352 03:54:37.560 --> 03:54:39.540 challenge at work so they want to hear 5353 03:54:39.540 --> 03:54:41.819 an example from your professional 5354 03:54:41.819 --> 03:54:44.580 experience about how you solved a 5355 03:54:44.580 --> 03:54:46.920 problem what did you do to solve a 5356 03:54:46.920 --> 03:54:49.739 problem at work they want to know what 5357 03:54:49.739 --> 03:54:51.960 kind of problem it was and how you 5358 03:54:51.960 --> 03:54:54.060 approach the problem and the result of 5359 03:54:54.060 --> 03:54:56.939 that problem so you could say for 5360 03:54:56.939 --> 03:54:59.340 example our company party was scheduled 5361 03:54:59.340 --> 03:55:02.040 for the day before Christmas but the 5362 03:55:02.040 --> 03:55:04.439 restaurant exploded and I had to find a 5363 03:55:04.439 --> 03:55:06.600 new place to have the party I don't know 5364 03:55:06.600 --> 03:55:09.840 that's not of course a crazy example but 5365 03:55:09.840 --> 03:55:12.899 giving your employer an idea of how you 5366 03:55:12.899 --> 03:55:14.819 solve problems and maybe the kind of 5367 03:55:14.819 --> 03:55:16.800 mental state you have when you solve the 5368 03:55:16.800 --> 03:55:19.080 problems can be helpful in making a 5369 03:55:19.080 --> 03:55:21.840 hiring decision so in an example when I 5370 03:55:21.840 --> 03:55:23.880 was having trouble communicating with a 5371 03:55:23.880 --> 03:55:26.580 client I reached out to a co-worker for 5372 03:55:26.580 --> 03:55:27.840 support 5373 03:55:27.840 --> 03:55:30.420 what are your career goals the next 5374 03:55:30.420 --> 03:55:33.180 question is what are your career goals 5375 03:55:33.180 --> 03:55:36.239 your career goals so not necessarily in 5376 03:55:36.239 --> 03:55:38.520 this company but in your career overall 5377 03:55:38.520 --> 03:55:41.279 in the interview it's probably a good 5378 03:55:41.279 --> 03:55:44.460 idea to include the company where you 5379 03:55:44.460 --> 03:55:46.560 are currently interviewing in your 5380 03:55:46.560 --> 03:55:49.920 career goals but keep in mind like you 5381 03:55:49.920 --> 03:55:52.800 should be explaining a goal or you 5382 03:55:52.800 --> 03:55:57.180 should be sharing a goal that is in line 5383 03:55:57.180 --> 03:56:00.120 with the company's work so if your goal 5384 03:56:00.120 --> 03:56:02.819 is to open a cupcake shop but you're 5385 03:56:02.819 --> 03:56:05.340 interviewing for like an I.T job where 5386 03:56:05.340 --> 03:56:08.000 you're going to be like I don't know 5387 03:56:08.000 --> 03:56:10.739 installing Windows 10 on people's 5388 03:56:10.739 --> 03:56:12.899 computers maybe this doesn't really 5389 03:56:12.899 --> 03:56:15.300 match so make sure that your career goal 5390 03:56:15.300 --> 03:56:16.979 and the job you're interviewing for 5391 03:56:16.979 --> 03:56:19.319 Align those two should be kind of 5392 03:56:19.319 --> 03:56:21.960 aligned it'll help your interviewer and 5393 03:56:21.960 --> 03:56:24.359 it will help you I think so in an 5394 03:56:24.359 --> 03:56:26.939 example sentence I want to create a 5395 03:56:26.939 --> 03:56:29.760 global advertising campaign strategy so 5396 03:56:29.760 --> 03:56:30.840 maybe you're interviewing for a 5397 03:56:30.840 --> 03:56:32.640 marketing job for example you could say 5398 03:56:32.640 --> 03:56:34.380 that's your career goal I would love to 5399 03:56:34.380 --> 03:56:36.600 design a global marketing campaign 5400 03:56:36.600 --> 03:56:39.180 strategy for example where do you see 5401 03:56:39.180 --> 03:56:41.640 yourself in five years the next question 5402 03:56:41.640 --> 03:56:43.979 a very common one where do you see 5403 03:56:43.979 --> 03:56:46.680 yourself in five years where do you see 5404 03:56:46.680 --> 03:56:48.239 yourself in five years this question 5405 03:56:48.239 --> 03:56:51.479 means after five years five years from 5406 03:56:51.479 --> 03:56:54.300 this point in time what is your vision 5407 03:56:54.300 --> 03:56:57.300 for you what is your vision of your self 5408 03:56:57.300 --> 03:57:00.660 professionally so what do you want to 5409 03:57:00.660 --> 03:57:03.600 have achieved after five years so a good 5410 03:57:03.600 --> 03:57:05.840 tip for this question is to explain 5411 03:57:05.840 --> 03:57:08.819 where you will be having made 5412 03:57:08.819 --> 03:57:11.640 contributions to the company where you 5413 03:57:11.640 --> 03:57:13.439 are interviewing so if I'm interviewing 5414 03:57:13.439 --> 03:57:15.660 at Apple and apple says where do you see 5415 03:57:15.660 --> 03:57:17.520 yourself in five years Alicia and I say 5416 03:57:17.520 --> 03:57:19.800 I see myself at Microsoft like that 5417 03:57:19.800 --> 03:57:24.300 sounds really bad so try to share your 5418 03:57:24.300 --> 03:57:26.399 your goals for yourself in a five-year 5419 03:57:26.399 --> 03:57:29.160 period but again try to align them with 5420 03:57:29.160 --> 03:57:30.960 the company where you're interviewing 5421 03:57:30.960 --> 03:57:33.180 and explain like how you plan to 5422 03:57:33.180 --> 03:57:35.399 contribute to the company and develop 5423 03:57:35.399 --> 03:57:37.560 yourself professionally that can be a 5424 03:57:37.560 --> 03:57:39.239 really good way to to answer this 5425 03:57:39.239 --> 03:57:41.699 question for example I see myself in a 5426 03:57:41.699 --> 03:57:43.560 managerial position in this company 5427 03:57:43.560 --> 03:57:45.840 working on multiple projects for 5428 03:57:45.840 --> 03:57:48.239 multiple markets 5429 03:57:48.239 --> 03:57:50.580 why do you want to work here the next 5430 03:57:50.580 --> 03:57:52.380 question is why do you want to work here 5431 03:57:52.380 --> 03:57:54.540 why do you want to work here so similar 5432 03:57:54.540 --> 03:57:56.520 to why are you interested in this 5433 03:57:56.520 --> 03:57:58.979 position that one's like that question 5434 03:57:58.979 --> 03:58:01.020 is very much about this job in 5435 03:58:01.020 --> 03:58:03.239 particular but the question why do you 5436 03:58:03.239 --> 03:58:04.920 want to work here means why do you want 5437 03:58:04.920 --> 03:58:06.840 to work in this company like in this 5438 03:58:06.840 --> 03:58:09.180 place specifically so share something 5439 03:58:09.180 --> 03:58:11.760 about the company that you like or share 5440 03:58:11.760 --> 03:58:14.880 something some reason the company is 5441 03:58:14.880 --> 03:58:17.399 attractive to you as a candidate so 5442 03:58:17.399 --> 03:58:19.260 maybe it's the location or maybe it's 5443 03:58:19.260 --> 03:58:22.979 the ability to work overseas or maybe 5444 03:58:22.979 --> 03:58:24.840 it's an international environment or 5445 03:58:24.840 --> 03:58:26.580 maybe you can use your English skills 5446 03:58:26.580 --> 03:58:29.340 some reason why you're interested in 5447 03:58:29.340 --> 03:58:31.800 working at this company specifically 5448 03:58:31.800 --> 03:58:34.260 share that after this question so 5449 03:58:34.260 --> 03:58:36.540 example I think there's a lot to learn 5450 03:58:36.540 --> 03:58:38.520 and I think there are opportunities for 5451 03:58:38.520 --> 03:58:39.960 promotion 5452 03:58:39.960 --> 03:58:42.180 do you have any questions for me 5453 03:58:42.180 --> 03:58:44.819 last one the last question is very 5454 03:58:44.819 --> 03:58:47.399 common do you have any questions for me 5455 03:58:47.399 --> 03:58:49.140 do you have any questions for me 5456 03:58:49.140 --> 03:58:51.120 interviewers will often ask this 5457 03:58:51.120 --> 03:58:53.120 question at the end of an interview 5458 03:58:53.120 --> 03:58:56.040 inviting the candidate to ask questions 5459 03:58:56.040 --> 03:58:59.100 about the company it is usually a very 5460 03:58:59.100 --> 03:59:01.859 good idea to prepare some questions for 5461 03:59:01.859 --> 03:59:04.380 the interviewer so it's it's also a good 5462 03:59:04.380 --> 03:59:06.060 idea to research your company or 5463 03:59:06.060 --> 03:59:07.560 research the university you're 5464 03:59:07.560 --> 03:59:10.560 interviewing for before the interview so 5465 03:59:10.560 --> 03:59:12.180 if you have questions about the company 5466 03:59:12.180 --> 03:59:15.540 company policy that sort of thing it's a 5467 03:59:15.540 --> 03:59:17.399 great chance to ask your interviewer 5468 03:59:17.399 --> 03:59:19.739 generally however it's not a good idea 5469 03:59:19.739 --> 03:59:22.439 to ask specific questions about pay or 5470 03:59:22.439 --> 03:59:25.260 vacation in the interview as you can be 5471 03:59:25.260 --> 03:59:28.199 seen as maybe two being too money or too 5472 03:59:28.199 --> 03:59:30.359 vacation focused that might come a 5473 03:59:30.359 --> 03:59:32.520 little later if you say what's the 5474 03:59:32.520 --> 03:59:35.399 salary for this job like unless it's a 5475 03:59:35.399 --> 03:59:37.500 situation unless it's a kind of a close 5476 03:59:37.500 --> 03:59:39.840 situation that might be too direct a 5477 03:59:39.840 --> 03:59:42.600 question but instead ask some some 5478 03:59:42.600 --> 03:59:44.160 things about the company ask your 5479 03:59:44.160 --> 03:59:46.380 interviewer what it's like to work there 5480 03:59:46.380 --> 03:59:48.600 what your interviewer thinks is good 5481 03:59:48.600 --> 03:59:50.880 about working for the company or maybe 5482 03:59:50.880 --> 03:59:53.279 what your interviewer thinks the company 5483 03:59:53.279 --> 03:59:55.500 is planning to do over the next few 5484 03:59:55.500 --> 03:59:58.620 years ask something of your interviewer 5485 03:59:58.620 --> 04:00:00.960 so it shows that you are interested in 5486 04:00:00.960 --> 04:00:03.120 that company and that you want to learn 5487 04:00:03.120 --> 04:00:05.100 more and participate more with that 5488 04:00:05.100 --> 04:00:07.199 company so make sure to have some 5489 04:00:07.199 --> 04:00:09.479 questions prepared when your interviewer 5490 04:00:09.479 --> 04:00:11.819 asks do you have any questions for me so 5491 04:00:11.819 --> 04:00:13.979 example question what do you think is 5492 04:00:13.979 --> 04:00:15.840 the most rewarding part about working 5493 04:00:15.840 --> 04:00:19.080 here so those are 10 job interview 5494 04:00:19.080 --> 04:00:21.720 questions and a few different ways you 5495 04:00:21.720 --> 04:00:23.880 can respond to them so I think those are 5496 04:00:23.880 --> 04:00:26.160 useful for job interviews yes but maybe 5497 04:00:26.160 --> 04:00:28.260 if you interview for like a university 5498 04:00:28.260 --> 04:00:31.080 or interview for a scholarship or 5499 04:00:31.080 --> 04:00:33.239 something you can use similar responses 5500 04:00:33.239 --> 04:00:35.520 to similar questions so if you have any 5501 04:00:35.520 --> 04:00:37.319 questions or comments please let us know 5502 04:00:37.319 --> 04:00:39.239 in the comment section below this video 5503 04:00:39.239 --> 04:00:41.460 if you liked the video please make

04:25:54.659 --> 04:25:57.659 for something or you just forget it you 6106 04:25:57.659 --> 04:25:59.699 can use this expression what do you call 6107 04:25:59.699 --> 04:26:02.279 this so again that do you becomes 6108 04:26:02.279 --> 04:26:05.699 reduced do you becomes Dia what do you 6109 04:26:05.699 --> 04:26:08.460 call this so to call something is like 6110 04:26:08.460 --> 04:26:10.800 to name something what is is the name 6111 04:26:10.800 --> 04:26:13.080 you use for this thing so what do you 6112 04:26:13.080 --> 04:26:15.840 call this like what do you call this 6113 04:26:15.840 --> 04:26:18.120 what do you call that what do you call 6114 04:26:18.120 --> 04:26:20.399 these what do you call this so you can 6115 04:26:20.399 --> 04:26:22.380 use that when you don't know the word 6116 04:26:22.380 --> 04:26:24.000 for something when you find something 6117 04:26:24.000 --> 04:26:28.380 new as well how do I get to location how 6118 04:26:28.380 --> 04:26:31.859 do I get to so how do I get to for 6119 04:26:31.859 --> 04:26:34.680 example the station how do I get to this 6120 04:26:34.680 --> 04:26:38.699 hotel means what is the path I should 6121 04:26:38.699 --> 04:26:41.880 take to arrive at that destination how 6122 04:26:41.880 --> 04:26:44.220 do I get to the beach from here how do I 6123 04:26:44.220 --> 04:26:46.979 get to my house from here or how do I 6124 04:26:46.979 --> 04:26:48.899 get to the bar from here how do I get to 6125 04:26:48.899 --> 04:26:51.899 work from here so how do I get to is a 6126 04:26:51.899 --> 04:26:54.840 much more natural way to ask for 6127 04:26:54.840 --> 04:26:57.180 directions to some place so don't use 6128 04:26:57.180 --> 04:27:02.220 how do I go or how do I travel I guess 6129 04:27:02.220 --> 04:27:06.180 but how do I get to a location and don't 6130 04:27:06.180 --> 04:27:09.359 forget your two also remember we use 6131 04:27:09.359 --> 04:27:12.479 that preposition two before the specific 6132 04:27:12.479 --> 04:27:15.720 place name so a problem that I hear a 6133 04:27:15.720 --> 04:27:18.659 lot is how do I go to there so we don't 6134 04:27:18.659 --> 04:27:22.500 use two before there because there is 6135 04:27:22.500 --> 04:27:25.800 not a specific Place how do I get to the 6136 04:27:25.800 --> 04:27:28.380 station a station is a specific place or 6137 04:27:28.380 --> 04:27:31.560 a hotel is a specific place there is not 6138 04:27:31.560 --> 04:27:34.260 a specific place so we cannot use two 6139 04:27:34.260 --> 04:27:37.439 with there so how do I get there 6140 04:27:37.439 --> 04:27:40.500 it's fine no two how do you get to the 6141 04:27:40.500 --> 04:27:43.500 next one by scrolling down on the iPad 6142 04:27:43.500 --> 04:27:46.140 alright so let's

04:36:58.080 --> 04:37:00.359 does that mean what does that mean and 6347 04:37:00.359 --> 04:37:02.160 native speakers use this too like we 6348 04:37:02.160 --> 04:37:03.900 don't understand everything like 6349 04:37:03.900 --> 04:37:06.119 sometimes everybody needs an explanation 6350 04:37:06.119 --> 04:37:09.840 so what does that mean is a great way to 6351 04:37:09.840 -->

like 6354 04:37:17.759 --> 04:37:21.900 a s or a z sound what does that mean so 6355 04:37:21.900 --> 04:37:25.020 it connects to that z sound in does what 6356 04:37:25.020 --> 04:37:27.240 does that mean what does that mean so 6357 04:37:27.240 --> 04:37:29.641 what does that mean it's like you don't 6358 04:37:29.641 --> 04:37:31.919 understand something that's written or 6359 04:37:31.919 --> 04:37:33.600 maybe you don't understand the 6360 04:37:33.600 --> 04:37:36.779 implications implications means like the 6361 04:37:36.779 --> 04:37:39.240 um like the background information of a 6362 04:37:39.240 --> 04:37:42.180 situation so what does that mean or you 6363 04:37:42.180 --> 04:37:43.740 don't understand something someone else 6364 04:37:43.740 --> 04:37:45.900 said but they're gone 6365 04:37:45.900 --> 04:37:49.500 so you can't say what did you say you 6366 04:37:49.500 --> 04:37:51.299 ask someone else what does that mean 6367 04:37:51.299 --> 04:37:52.919 what that person just said what does 6368 04:37:52.919 --> 04:37:54.660 that mean so what does that mean is 6369 04:37:54.660 --> 04:37:57.119 another really important expression for 6370 04:37:57.119 --> 04:37:59.520 Learners especially I don't feel so good 6371 04:37:59.520 --> 04:38:02.160 I don't feel so good so if you don't 6372 04:38:02.160 --> 04:38:04.379 want to specifically say like my stomach 6373 04:38:04.379 --> 04:38:06.480 hurts or my arm hurts or my head hurts 6374 04:38:06.480 --> 04:38:10.320 you can say I don't feel so good so this 6375 04:38:10.320 --> 04:38:12.900 tends to be used more for like stomach 6376 04:38:12.900 --> 04:38:15.959 problems so I don't feel so good I ate a 6377 04:38:15.959 --> 04:38:18.480 huge lunch I don't feel so good or maybe 6378 04:38:18.480 --> 04:38:20.939 you ate something bad I don't feel so 6379 04:38:20.939 --> 04:38:23.459 good we often use I don't feel so good 6380 04:38:23.459 --> 04:38:26.459 when we actually feel very bad very 6381 04:38:26.459 --> 04:38:29.699 suddenly like in the examples I 6382 04:38:29.699 --> 04:38:32.100 mentioned when we eat something and our 6383 04:38:32.100 --> 04:38:34.199 body is not happy with it and we 6384 04:38:34.199 --> 04:38:36.600 suddenly feel sick we might use the 6385 04:38:36.600 --> 04:38:38.939 Expression I don't feel so good I need 6386 04:38:38.939 --> 04:38:41.641 to go home so you can use this to talk 6387 04:38:41.641 --> 04:38:43.799 about like a sudden and unpleasant 6388 04:38:43.799 --> 04:38:45.840 feeling in your body I don't feel so 6389 04:38:45.840 --> 04:38:49.859 good I need to go to location I need to 6390 04:38:49.859 --> 04:38:52.740 go to location I need to go to location 6391 04:38:52.740 --> 04:38:56.520 is useful for talking about errands so 6392 04:38:56.520 --> 04:38:59.160 errands is like small tasks you need to 6393 04:38:59.160 --> 04:39:01.320 do throughout the day we also use this 6394 04:39:01.320 --> 04:39:03.240 expression when we need to visit the 6395 04:39:03.240 --> 04:39:05.759 restroom urgently so you can say I need 6396 04:39:05.759 --> 04:39:07.500 to go to the restroom that's great 6397 04:39:07.500 --> 04:39:09.779 that's very natural and polite way to 6398 04:39:09.779 --> 04:39:11.180 talk about visiting the restroom 6399 04:39:11.180 --> 04:39:13.740 otherwise when you're talking about your 6400 04:39:13.740 --> 04:39:15.840 daily tasks you can say I need to go to 6401 04:39:15.840 --> 04:39:17.520 the bank I need to go to the store I 6402 04:39:17.520 --> 04:39:20.100 need to go to the car wash I need to go 6403 04:39:20.100 --> 04:39:22.199 to the pet sitter and pick up my 6404 04:39:22.199 --> 04:39:24.419 neighbor's poodle what that was very 6405 04:39:24.419 --> 04:39:25.619 specific 6406 04:39:25.619 --> 04:39:27.660 so you can talk about your 6407 04:39:27.660 --> 04:39:30.779 responsibilities with need to yes you 6408 04:39:30.779 --> 04:39:33.719 can substitute have to here I have to go 6409 04:39:33.719 --> 04:39:35.219 to the bank I have to go to the store 6410 04:39:35.219 --> 04:39:38.280 keep in mind also when you want to use 6411 04:39:38.280 --> 04:39:41.520 the negative form I don't have to or I 6412 04:39:41.520 --> 04:39:44.878 don't need to you can but make sure you 6413 04:39:44.878 --> 04:39:47.520 use it with something you don't have a 6414 04:39:47.520 --> 04:39:50.218 responsibility to do I hear lots of 6415 04:39:50.218 --> 04:39:53.160 Learners use expressions like I don't 6416 04:39:53.160 --> 04:39:56.878 have to go to the bar today for example 6417 04:39:56.878 --> 04:40:00.120 like if going to a bar is part of your 6418 04:40:00.120 --> 04:40:02.700 regular responsibilities like you work 6419 04:40:02.700 --> 04:40:05.160 at a bar or like part of your business 6420 04:40:05.160 --> 04:40:08.280 is at a bar fine but if it's just 6421 04:40:08.280 --> 04:40:10.680 something you occasionally do it sounds 6422 04:40:10.680 --> 04:40:13.320 really unnatural to use I don't have to 6423 04:40:13.320 --> 04:40:16.200 go to the bar today so we use this in 6424 04:40:16.200 --> 04:40:18.120 the negative form for things we can 6425 04:40:18.120 --> 04:40:21.060 naturally and reasonably be expected to 6426 04:40:21.060 --> 04:40:24.000 have responsibility to do so keep that 6427 04:40:24.000 --> 04:40:25.798 in mind when you use the negative form 6428 04:40:25.798 --> 04:40:30.000 okay onward I have to I have to so my 6429 04:40:30.000 --> 04:40:32.520 previous one was I need to go to a place 6430 04:40:32.520 --> 04:40:34.740 if you want to just talk in general 6431 04:40:34.740 --> 04:40:37.560 about responsibilities you can use I 6432 04:40:37.560 --> 04:40:40.259 have to I have to get up early in the 6433 04:40:40.259 --> 04:40:42.840 morning I have to study for my tests I 6434 04:40:42.840 --> 04:40:47.458 have to think of a new hairstyle for my 6435 04:40:47.458 --> 04:40:50.218 cat yesterday I had to pass students I 6436 04:40:50.218 --> 04:40:52.259 had to buy new clothes because my 6437 04:40:52.259 --> 04:40:54.298 director was making fun of me for 6438 04:40:54.298 --> 04:40:56.458 wearing shirts that they were falling 6439 04:40:56.458 --> 04:40:59.400 apart on camera because that's how much 6440 04:40:59.400 --> 04:41:02.759 I love shopping yeah so past tense I had 6441 04:41:02.759 --> 04:41:05.400 to buy new clothes yesterday or I had to 6442 04:41:05.400 --> 04:41:08.700 go out in the rain yesterday so again I 6443 04:41:08.700 --> 04:41:11.640 had some responsibility to do that so 6444 04:41:11.640 --> 04:41:14.160 past tense had to when are we leaving 6445 04:41:14.160 --> 04:41:16.860 when are we leaving I included this here 6446 04:41:16.860 --> 04:41:19.980 because it's a common question 6447 04:41:19.980 --> 04:41:22.020 surprisingly like when are we leaving 6448 04:41:22.020 --> 04:41:25.378 not uh when do we go that's one that I 6449 04:41:25.378 --> 04:41:28.138 hear some time like when do we go or 6450 04:41:28.138 --> 04:41:30.600 when we go or something like that don't 6451 04:41:30.600 --> 04:41:34.080 use those sorry Mr iPad um the question 6452 04:41:34.080 --> 04:41:37.200 is when are we leaving so we use this 6453 04:41:37.200 --> 04:41:39.180 when we're at an event we're at a party 6454 04:41:39.180 --> 04:41:41.700 we're maybe at work whatever you're 6455 04:41:41.700 --> 04:41:43.860 going somewhere else with another person 6456 04:41:43.860 --> 04:41:47.280 or with a group when are we leaving when 6457 04:41:47.280 --> 04:41:49.680 are we leaving this place in other words 6458 04:41:49.680 --> 04:41:52.560 so natural pronunciation when are we 6459 04:41:52.560 --> 04:41:55.200 leaving when are we leaving becomes when 6460 04:41:55.200 --> 04:41:58.100 are we leaving okay so those are 25 6461 04:41:58.100 --> 04:42:01.080 must-know intermediate phrases I hope 6462 04:42:01.080 --> 04:42:03.360

04:42:07.980 --> 04:42:10.138 them in past tense and in future tense 6466 04:42:10.138 --> 04:42:13.080 too so don't stick only to present tense 6467 04:42:13.080 --> 04:42:15.958 make sure to go outside of present tense 6468 04:42:15.958 --> 04:42:18.000 and think about the different ways that 6469 04:42:18.000 --> 04:42:19.980 you can use these Expressions to talk 6470 04:42:19.980 -->

tenses I want 6542 04:48:47.759 --> 04:48:50.759 to look at is the present tense so for 6543 04:48:50.759 --> 04:48:52.980 today's lesson I've organized it into 6544 04:48:52.980 --> 04:48:56.280 three categories present past and future 6545 04:48:56.280 --> 04:48:59.520 tenses so let's begin with the present 6546 04:48:59.520 --> 04:49:02.878 tense so in each category I have four 6547 04:49:02.878 --> 04:49:05.340 different tenses I have simple 6548 04:49:05.340 --> 04:49:07.378 continuous perfect 6549 04:49:07.378 --> 04:49:10.020 perfect continuous you might know 6550 04:49:10.020 --> 04:49:13.080 continuous as Progressive they mean the 6551 04:49:13.080 --> 04:49:15.240 same thing continuous and Progressive 6552 04:49:15.240 --> 04:49:18.000 mean the same thing for this lesson so 6553 04:49:18.000 --> 04:49:19.980 let's begin with the present simple 6554 04:49:19.980 --> 04:49:23.100 tense present simple tense is a tense we 6555 04:49:23.100 --> 04:49:25.860 use for General facts for regular 6556 04:49:25.860 --> 04:49:29.040 actions and for schedules so this is 6557 04:49:29.040 --> 04:49:32.700 stuff that doesn't change like he speaks 6558 04:49:32.700 --> 04:49:35.218 English for example she doesn't speak 6559 04:49:35.218 --> 04:49:38.218 Spanish that's a simple fact for regular 6560 04:49:38.218 --> 04:49:40.620 action so things you do every day or 6561 04:49:40.620 --> 04:49:43.860 every week for example and schedule so 6562 04:49:43.860 --> 04:49:46.500 that means like a bus or an airplane or 6563 04:49:46.500 --> 04:49:49.200 maybe a car schedule something that 6564 04:49:49.200 --> 04:49:51.840 maintains a regular schedule an example 6565 04:49:51.840 --> 04:49:54.540 two examples of using the present simple 6566 04:49:54.540 --> 04:49:58.320 tense first I work on Mondays so here 6567 04:49:58.320 --> 04:50:01.259 work is my verb I work on Mondays simple 6568 04:50:01.259 --> 04:50:04.500 present tense a negative I don't eat 6569 04:50:04.500 --> 04:50:07.560 lunch at two o'clock so these are simple 6570 04:50:07.560 --> 04:50:09.840 present tense statements in this case 6571 04:50:09.840 --> 04:50:11.759 they're just simple statements of fact 6572 04:50:11.759 --> 04:50:15.000 really okay so let's continue to the 6573 04:50:15.000 --> 04:50:18.180 next one the second tense is the present 6574 04:50:18.180 --> 04:50:20.878 continuous tense the present continuous 6575 04:50:20.878 --> 04:50:21.660 tense 6576 04:50:21.660 --> 04:50:24.419 uh so present continuous tense we use 6577 04:50:24.419 --> 04:50:27.360 for continuing actions and that means 6578 04:50:27.360 --> 04:50:30.419 actions that are happening now so for 6579 04:50:30.419 --> 04:50:33.480 example I'm teaching I'm standing I'm 6580 04:50:33.480 --> 04:50:36.958 speaking those are actions happening now 6581 04:50:36.958 --> 04:50:39.419 so we use it for continuing actions now 6582 04:50:39.419 --> 04:50:43.080 like physical actions we also use it for 6583 04:50:43.080 --> 04:50:46.020 Trends so things happening in your 6584 04:50:46.020 --> 04:50:48.900 Society right now for example so 6585 04:50:48.900 --> 04:50:51.718 examples would be like that TV show is 6586 04:50:51.718 --> 04:50:54.958 becoming popular or the world is getting 6587 04:50:54.958 --> 04:50:57.780 warmer for example so these are things 6588 04:50:57.780 --> 04:51:01.378 happening now also we can use it for 6589 04:51:01.378 --> 04:51:04.259 one-time actions as well and this 6590 04:51:04.259 --> 04:51:06.660 relates a little bit to future tense 6591 04:51:06.660 --> 04:51:09.000 which I'm going to talk about later too 6592 04:51:09.000 --> 04:51:12.000 but something happening just one time in 6593 04:51:12.000 --> 04:51:14.580 the future we can use the continuous 6594 04:51:14.580 --> 04:51:18.419 form to describe that so for example I'm 6595 04:51:18.419 --> 04:51:21.480 working this Saturday so sometimes 6596 04:51:21.480 --> 04:51:23.638 students ask what's the difference why 6597 04:51:23.638 --> 04:51:26.100 is it I'm working this Saturday and not 6598 04:51:26.100 --> 04:51:29.520 I work this Saturday remember we talked 6599 04:51:29.520 --> 04:51:31.680 about the present simple tense we use 6600 04:51:31.680 --> 04:51:33.660 that for regular actions for General 6601 04:51:33.660 --> 04:51:37.320 facts so if you usually work on 6602 04:51:37.320 --> 04:51:39.360 Saturdays you should use the present 6603 04:51:39.360 --> 04:51:42.000 simple tense I work on Saturdays if 6604 04:51:42.000 --> 04:51:45.120 however this Saturday is special and you 6605 04:51:45.120 --> 04:51:47.218 don't usually work on Saturdays you 6606 04:51:47.218 --> 04:51:49.200 should use the continuous tense I'm 6607 04:51:49.200 --> 04:51:51.419 working this Saturday so it sounds like 6608 04:51:51.419 --> 04:51:53.759 that's not a typical thing for you I'm 6609 04:51:53.759 --> 04:51:56.280 working this Saturday okay let's go on 6610 04:51:56.280 --> 04:51:58.378 to the third tense the third tense is 6611 04:51:58.378 --> 04:52:00.480 the present perfect tense the present 6612 04:52:00.480 --> 04:52:03.000 perfect tense so we use the present 6613 04:52:03.000 --> 04:52:05.218 perfect tense for General life 6614 04:52:05.218 --> 04:52:08.218 experience or lack thereof so lack 6615 04:52:08.218 --> 04:52:10.980 thereof means no no life experience not 6616 04:52:10.980 --> 04:52:13.798 having a life experience so something 6617 04:52:13.798 --> 04:52:17.520 that you did in the past but not at a 6618 04:52:17.520 --> 04:52:19.740 specific point in time the specific 6619 04:52:19.740 --> 04:52:22.200 point in time is not so important here 6620 04:52:22.200 --> 04:52:25.500 or maybe we don't know so example a 6621 04:52:25.500 --> 04:52:28.740 negative example he has Never Been to 6622 04:52:28.740 --> 04:52:30.958 Spain he has Never Been to Spain in this 6623 04:52:30.958 --> 04:52:34.440 case no life experience of going to 6624 04:52:34.440 --> 04:52:36.718 Spain is what this means so this is an 6625 04:52:36.718 --> 04:52:39.718 example of present perfect tense here we 6626 04:52:39.718 --> 04:52:42.660 have he has remember we need to attach 6627 04:52:42.660 --> 04:52:47.280 has or have before our past participle 6628 04:52:47.280 --> 04:52:49.680 verb form here so for more information 6629 04:52:49.680 --> 04:52:51.900 about this tense you can check the 6630 04:52:51.900 --> 04:52:53.458 channel there's more information there 6631 04:52:53.458 --> 04:52:56.340 so let's continue on to the next tense 6632 04:52:56.340 --> 04:52:58.200 now the next tense is the present 6633 04:52:58.200 --> 04:53:00.600 perfect continuous tense present perfect 6634 04:53:00.600 --> 04:53:03.958 continuous we use this tense for actions 6635 04:53:03.958 --> 04:53:06.900 that started in the past and continue to 6636 04:53:06.900 --> 04:53:08.820 the present so something you started 6637 04:53:08.820 --> 04:53:11.520 doing in the past some point in the past 6638 04:53:11.520 --> 04:53:15.240 it's not always important when but that 6639 04:53:15.240 --> 04:53:17.878 action continues so you use this a lot 6640 04:53:17.878 --> 04:53:20.218 to talk about your studies for example 6641 04:53:20.218 --> 04:53:24.120 we use words like for and since and 6642 04:53:24.120 --> 04:53:26.820 maybe a go with this as well so an 6643 04:53:26.820 --> 04:53:29.340 example of this I've been studying 6644 04:53:29.340 --> 04:53:32.700 English for two years so here we see 6645 04:53:32.700 --> 04:53:35.940 I've been this I've is the contracted 6646 04:53:35.940 --> 04:53:39.680 the reduced form of I have I have been 6647 04:53:39.680 --> 04:53:42.540 studying so this is the continuous or 6648 04:53:42.540 --> 04:53:44.878 the progressive form in this case I've 6649 04:53:44.878 --> 04:53:47.218 used the word for I've used four because 6650 04:53:47.218 --> 04:53:50.218 I'm using two years which is a length of 6651 04:53:50.218 --> 04:53:53.458 time we can use since for example I've 6652 04:53:53.458 --> 04:53:57.180 been studying English since 2016 so we 6653 04:53:57.180 --> 04:54:00.298 use since before a specific point in 6654 04:54:00.298 --> 04:54:01.040 time 6655 04:54:01.040 --> 04:54:04.680 we can use a go as well usually we pair 6656 04:54:04.680 --> 04:54:06.419 it with synths I've been studying 6657 04:54:06.419 --> 04:54:09.780 English since two years ago you'll 6658 04:54:09.780 --> 04:54:12.480 notice when we use a go however we 6659 04:54:12.480 --> 04:54:15.200 change from using in my first example 6660 04:54:15.200 --> 04:54:19.259 2016 to a length of time since two years 6661 04:54:19.259 --> 04:54:21.718 ago so there are a few different changes 6662 04:54:21.718 --> 04:54:23.520 you need to make there but you can check 6663 04:54:23.520 --> 04:54:25.860 the other video on the channel for more 6664 04:54:25.860 --> 04:54:29.160 information about that Point okay let's 6665 04:54:29.160 --> 04:54:31.200 move on to the second group for today 6666 04:54:31.200 --> 04:54:33.600 which is the past tense let's look at 6667 04:54:33.600 --> 04:54:36.419 the Four Points in the past tense here 6668 04:54:36.419 --> 04:54:39.000 first one is the past simple or just 6669 04:54:39.000 --> 04:54:41.580 simple past tense simple past tense is 6670 04:54:41.580 --> 04:54:44.100 used for actions that started and 6671 04:54:44.100 --> 04:54:47.940 finished in the past so for example I 6672 04:54:47.940 --> 04:54:51.180 taught simple present tense earlier so I 6673 04:54:51.180 --> 04:54:54.060 used past tense I taught simple present 6674 04:54:54.060 --> 04:54:56.759 tense because the action started and 6675 04:54:56.759 --> 04:55:00.419 finished in the past another example I 6676 04:55:00.419 --> 04:55:03.060 worked all night I worked all night so 6677 04:55:03.060 --> 04:55:06.180 work is my verb I use simple past tense 6678 04:55:06.180 --> 04:55:08.878 worked because the action started and 6679 04:55:08.878 --> 04:55:11.820 finished in the past another example a 6680 04:55:11.820 --> 04:55:14.340 negative they didn't come they didn't 6681 04:55:14.340 --> 04:55:16.138 come to the party they didn't come to 6682 04:55:16.138 --> 04:55:19.020 the office the action was in the past it 6683 04:55:19.020 --> 04:55:21.540 refers to something that did not happen 6684 04:55:21.540 --> 04:55:24.000 in the past so there was no action in 6685 04:55:24.000 --> 04:55:26.638 the past but it's over it's finished so 6686 04:55:26.638 --> 04:55:28.620 we use simple past tense to talk about 6687 04:55:28.620 --> 04:55:31.378 these simple actions that started and 6688 04:55:31.378 --> 04:55:34.860 finished in the past okay let's go on to 6689 04:55:34.860 --> 04:55:37.440 the Past continuous against them past 6690 04:55:37.440 --> 04:55:40.080 continuous is for actions that were 6691 04:55:40.080 --> 04:55:43.138 continuing in the past so this one is 6692 04:55:43.138 --> 04:55:45.840 one we often use with a specific point 6693 04:55:45.840 --> 04:55:48.840 in time along with it so let's look at 6694 04:55:48.840 --> 04:55:50.520 an example first 6695 04:55:50.520 --> 04:55:52.980 we were listening to music we were 6696 04:55:52.980 --> 04:55:55.080 listening to music yesterday or we were 6697 04:55:55.080 --> 04:55:58.138 listening to music at 8pm when were you 6698 04:55:58.138 --> 04:56:00.120 listening to music when was that action 6699 04:56:00.120 --> 04:56:04.020 continuing at 8pm or yesterday so it's 6700 04:56:04.020 --> 04:56:07.138 common to include a point in time with 6701 04:56:07.138 --> 04:56:09.240 this grammar Point another example like 6702 04:56:09.240 --> 04:56:12.240 I was doing something something ing form 6703 04:56:12.240 --> 04:56:15.780 there so um this is one that's some 6704 04:56:15.780 --> 04:56:17.878 people have questions about like why 6705 04:56:17.878 --> 04:56:19.620 should I use that when should I use that 6706 04:56:19.620 --> 04:56:22.080 it's typically used in response to 6707 04:56:22.080 --> 04:56:23.940 someone's question like what were you 6708 04:56:23.940 --> 04:56:26.878 doing uh last night for example or what 6709 04:56:26.878 --> 04:56:29.040 were you doing this morning so you want 6710 04:56:29.040 --> 04:56:31.560 to know someone's activities at a 6711 04:56:31.560 --> 04:56:33.958 specific point in time you can use this 6712 04:56:33.958 --> 04:56:35.820 grammar point to respond to that 6713 04:56:35.820 --> 04:56:37.940 question 6714 04:56:38.040 --> 04:56:40.440 to the past perfect tense our next one 6715 04:56:40.440 --> 04:56:43.138 past perfect tense is for actions that 6716 04:56:43.138 --> 04:56:46.138 were completed or not completed at a 6717 04:56:46.138 --> 04:56:49.200 non-specific point in the past at a 6718 04:56:49.200 --> 04:56:51.000 non-specific point in the past 6719 04:56:51.000 --> 04:56:53.759 so this one is kind of difficult and 6720 04:56:53.759 --> 04:56:57.600 it's perhaps not used quite so much in 6721 04:56:57.600 --> 04:57:00.000 everyday conversation this is used a bit 6722 04:57:00.000 --> 04:57:02.400 more in writing this is a grammar Point 6723 04:57:02.400 --> 04:57:04.919 that's especially helpful when we want 6724 04:57:04.919 --> 04:57:07.320 to show kind of a timeline in our 6725 04:57:07.320 --> 04:57:09.718 writing to show that an action happened 6726 04:57:09.718 --> 04:57:13.259 before another action in the past we can 6727 04:57:13.259 --> 04:57:15.900 use the past perfect tense so here's a 6728 04:57:15.900 --> 04:57:19.259 couple of examples uh first one they 6729 04:57:19.259 --> 04:57:22.200 hadn't departed yet so here hadn't is 6730 04:57:22.200 --> 04:57:24.718 the reduced form of had not they hadn't 6731 04:57:24.718 --> 04:57:27.900 departed yet and I had taken my lunch 6732 04:57:27.900 --> 04:57:28.860 break 6733 04:57:28.860 --> 04:57:32.040 so we would use sentences like these if 6734 04:57:32.040 --> 04:57:34.440 we're telling a story so we're telling a 6735 04:57:34.440 --> 04:57:36.540 story about the past and we want to show 6736 04:57:36.540 --> 04:57:39.060 that one action happened before another 6737 04:57:39.060 --> 04:57:41.638 action when we want to talk about the 6738 04:57:41.638 --> 04:57:43.440 earlier action so the thing that 6739 04:57:43.440 --> 04:57:45.958 happened earlier like more in the past 6740 04:57:45.958 --> 04:57:49.138 we use the past perfect tense then we 6741 04:57:49.138 --> 04:57:51.540 can use the simple past tense to explain 6742 04:57:51.540 --> 04:57:54.240 the action that happened closer to the 6743 04:57:54.240 --> 04:57:56.878 present so for example 6744 04:57:56.878 --> 04:58:00.900 I had taken my lunch break when I saw 6745 04:58:00.900 --> 04:58:03.660 the delivery man came or something like 6746 04:58:03.660 --> 04:58:05.520 that so you can see my second point 6747 04:58:05.520 --> 04:58:07.080 there that's kind of a strange example 6748 04:58:07.080 --> 04:58:09.360 but uh you see that my second point 6749 04:58:09.360 --> 04:58:12.000 there uses the simple past tense I saw 6750 04:58:12.000 --> 04:58:14.400 the delivery man came so I had taken my 6751 04:58:14.400 --> 04:58:17.280 lunch break further in the past when I 6752 04:58:17.280 --> 04:58:19.560 saw the delivery man came so that's 6753 04:58:19.560 --> 04:58:21.419 simple past tense so this is probably 6754 04:58:21.419 --> 04:58:24.180 more common in writing but it is used in 6755 04:58:24.180 --> 04:58:26.878 speaking as well too so this is what we 6756 04:58:26.878 --> 04:58:29.700 use a past perfect tense to do okay 6757 04:58:29.700 --> 04:58:31.378 let's move on then to another 6758 04:58:31.378 --> 04:58:34.040 challenging point a past perfect 6759 04:58:34.040 --> 04:58:36.980 continuous tense past perfect continuous 6760 04:58:36.980 --> 04:58:39.740 these These are sentences or questions 6761 04:58:39.740 --> 04:58:43.700 for actions that started in the past and 6762 04:58:43.700 --> 04:58:47.280 continued to like an unspecified point 6763 04:58:47.280 --> 04:58:49.500 in the past so the action has finished 6764 04:58:49.500 --> 04:58:52.919 as well that's a key difference with the 6765 04:58:52.919 --> 04:58:55.020 present perfect continuous with present 6766 04:58:55.020 --> 04:58:57.480 perfect continuous the action is 6767 04:58:57.480 --> 04:59:00.298 happening now still that behavior still 6768 04:59:00.298 --> 04:59:02.520 continues key point though with past 6769 04:59:02.520 --> 04:59:04.680 perfect continuous is that the action 6770 04:59:04.680 --> 04:59:07.500 started at some point in the past and 6771 04:59:07.500 --> 04:59:10.500 then continued and finished as well but 6772 04:59:10.500 --> 04:59:13.320 it's some unspecified point so maybe we 6773 04:59:13.320 --> 04:59:15.240 don't know exactly when the action 6774 04:59:15.240 --> 04:59:18.000 finished but it's done it's complete so 6775 04:59:18.000 --> 04:59:20.100 let's look at an example 6776 04:59:20.100 --> 04:59:23.759 uh they had been waiting since 3 P.M 6777 04:59:23.759 --> 04:59:27.540 so here they had been waiting this shows 6778 04:59:27.540 --> 04:59:30.540 us that there was some waiting period so 6779 04:59:30.540 --> 04:59:33.480 the The Waiting started at 3 P.M and the 6780 04:59:33.480 --> 04:59:34.919 waiting continued and continued and 6781 04:59:34.919 --> 04:59:37.560 continued we don't know when the waiting 6782 04:59:37.560 --> 04:59:40.020 finished but this grammar Point shows us 6783 04:59:40.020 --> 04:59:41.878 that the waiting has finished we're 6784 04:59:41.878 --> 04:59:44.280 finished waiting that's done we wanted 6785 04:59:44.280 --> 04:59:46.560 to talk only about this period of time 6786 04:59:46.560 --> 04:59:49.020 the people were waiting in the past so 6787 04:59:49.020 --> 04:59:51.000 this is the grammar point that we use to 6788 04:59:51.000 --> 04:59:52.700 talk about things that were happening 6789 04:59:52.700 --> 04:59:55.860 over a period of time in the past and 6790 04:59:55.860 --> 04:59:58.440 then finished so this is something again 6791 04:59:58.440 --> 05:00:00.419 we use when telling stories we're 6792 05:00:00.419 --> 05:00:02.580 showing a sequence of events actually 6793 05:00:02.580 --> 05:00:05.400 okay let's move along then to the last 6794 05:00:05.400 --> 05:00:07.620 group for today's lesson the future 6795 05:00:07.620 --> 05:00:09.840 tense future tense let's start with the 6796 05:00:09.840 --> 05:00:12.958 future simple tense future simple tense 6797 05:00:12.958 --> 05:00:15.958 this is for actions that are planned or 6798 05:00:15.958 --> 05:00:17.940 unplanned for the future 6799 05:00:17.940 --> 05:00:19.860 there are actually a lot of different 6800 05:00:19.860 --> 05:00:22.080 things we can do to make the future 6801 05:00:22.080 --> 05:00:24.540 simple tense some very common ways of 6802 05:00:24.540 --> 05:00:26.940 making future simple are through using 6803 05:00:26.940 --> 05:00:29.878 will and won't and going to and not 6804 05:00:29.878 --> 05:00:33.060 going to and earlier in this lesson I 6805 05:00:33.060 --> 05:00:35.100 mentioned using the continuous tense the 6806 05:00:35.100 --> 05:00:38.100 present continuous tense the ing form of 6807 05:00:38.100 --> 05:00:40.440 a verb to make statements about the 6808 05:00:40.440 --> 05:00:42.660 future also so there are many ways to 6809 05:00:42.660 --> 05:00:44.820 make a simple future statement let's 6810 05:00:44.820 --> 05:00:48.000 look at a couple of examples first I'll 6811 05:00:48.000 --> 05:00:50.280 have a glass of wine this uses will 6812 05:00:50.280 --> 05:00:53.340 aisle isle is the reduced form of I will 6813 05:00:53.340 --> 05:00:55.200 have a glass of wine that's a future 6814 05:00:55.200 --> 05:00:56.520 statement 6815 05:00:56.520 --> 05:00:59.520 also he's going to cook dinner in this 6816 05:00:59.520 --> 05:01:02.458 one I've used going to to express that 6817 05:01:02.458 --> 05:01:04.440 so these are just simple things about 6818 05:01:04.440 --> 05:01:06.660 planned or perhaps unplanned like he's 6819 05:01:06.660 --> 05:01:08.520 not going to cook dinner would be an 6820 05:01:08.520 --> 05:01:10.378 unplanned action in the future or 6821 05:01:10.378 --> 05:01:12.120 something that's not going to happen in 6822 05:01:12.120 --> 05:01:15.780 the future rather okay so let's go on to 6823 05:01:15.780 --> 05:01:18.419 the Future continuous tense now future 6824 05:01:18.419 --> 05:01:19.919 continuous tense 6825 05:01:19.919 --> 05:01:23.759 this is for actions you think will or 6826 05:01:23.759 --> 05:01:27.298 will not be continuing in the future in 6827 05:01:27.298 --> 05:01:29.400 the future something you think will be 6828 05:01:29.400 --> 05:01:31.680 continuously happening in the future 6829 05:01:31.680 --> 05:01:34.138 let's look at an example 6830 05:01:34.138 --> 05:01:38.160 I'm not going to be working at company a 6831 05:01:38.160 --> 05:01:40.620 I'm not going to be working at company a 6832 05:01:40.620 --> 05:01:44.280 so here you can see we have going to I'm 6833 05:01:44.280 --> 05:01:48.120 not going to plus we have a verb in the 6834 05:01:48.120 --> 05:01:51.000 continuous tense I'm not going to be 6835 05:01:51.000 --> 05:01:53.878 working at company a meaning in other 6836 05:01:53.878 --> 05:01:56.218 words I'm not going to have a job at 6837 05:01:56.218 --> 05:01:59.040 company a or I'm not going to continue 6838 05:01:59.040 --> 05:02:01.980 my position at company a in the future 6839 05:02:01.980 --> 05:02:04.320 that's my thought now in the present 6840 05:02:04.320 --> 05:02:07.138 about the future so at that time in the 6841 05:02:07.138 --> 05:02:09.958 future like in one year for example I 6842 05:02:09.958 --> 05:02:12.419 will not be working at that company or 6843 05:02:12.419 --> 05:02:14.820 I'm not going to be working at company a 6844 05:02:14.820 --> 05:02:17.458 so that's the idea behind the future 6845 05:02:17.458 --> 05:02:20.520 continuous tense okay let's move along 6846 05:02:20.520 --> 05:02:24.120 to the future perfect tense then so so 6847 05:02:24.120 --> 05:02:26.580 future perfect tense refers to actions 6848 05:02:26.580 --> 05:02:29.520 that you think will have started some 6849 05:02:29.520 --> 05:02:31.740 point in the future so remember you're 6850 05:02:31.740 --> 05:02:34.680 thinking in the present right now but 6851 05:02:34.680 --> 05:02:36.840 this grammar point is used to talk about 6852 05:02:36.840 --> 05:02:40.200 something something you imagine in the 6853 05:02:40.200 --> 05:02:41.218 future 6854 05:02:41.218 --> 05:02:44.160 that starts at some point and you think 6855 05:02:44.160 --> 05:02:47.040 might be continuing into the future 6856 05:02:47.040 --> 05:02:50.400 maybe something started and maybe 6857 05:02:50.400 --> 05:02:53.160 continues this is the idea here so let's 6858 05:02:53.160 --> 05:02:55.280 look at an example 6859 05:02:55.280 --> 05:02:59.878 uh I will have lived in China for two 6860 05:02:59.878 --> 05:03:03.060 years I will have lived in China so here 6861 05:03:03.060 --> 05:03:05.700 I'm using will to show it's a future 6862 05:03:05.700 --> 05:03:09.419 tense statement I will Plus have lived 6863 05:03:09.419 --> 05:03:12.240 this is the same thing that we use for 6864 05:03:12.240 --> 05:03:15.000 the present perfect tense that we talked 6865 05:03:15.000 --> 05:03:17.400 about earlier that past participle Plus 6866 05:03:17.400 --> 05:03:20.280 have or has but we're attaching it to a 6867 05:03:20.280 --> 05:03:23.700 future tense will I will have lived in 6868 05:03:23.700 --> 05:03:26.458 China for two years so when would we use 6869 05:03:26.458 --> 05:03:29.520 this so if for example someone asks you 6870 05:03:29.520 --> 05:03:32.280 a question about your future and they 6871 05:03:32.280 --> 05:03:35.100 say like hmm so where do you see 6872 05:03:35.100 --> 05:03:38.759 yourself in like 2020 for example or 6873 05:03:38.759 --> 05:03:40.740 where do you imagine you're going to 6874 05:03:40.740 --> 05:03:43.680 live in 2020 for example you could say 6875 05:03:43.680 --> 05:03:47.040 oh I will have lived in China for two 6876 05:03:47.040 --> 05:03:51.780 years so meaning at that time in 2020 I 6877 05:03:51.780 --> 05:03:54.480 will have lived in China for two years 6878 05:03:54.480 --> 05:03:57.540 so that means not now but in the future 6879 05:03:57.540 --> 05:04:01.020 at that point in time in the future I 6880 05:04:01.020 --> 05:04:04.320 will have started Living in China and 6881 05:04:04.320 --> 05:04:06.480 that will have continued for two years 6882 05:04:06.480 --> 05:04:08.218 so that's what that means that's a guess 6883 05:04:08.218 --> 05:04:10.680 about the future a future time period 6884 05:04:10.680 --> 05:04:13.378 that something will have continued in 6885 05:04:13.378 --> 05:04:15.900 the future so again quite a challenging 6886 05:04:15.900 --> 05:04:18.360 grammar point but something definitely 6887 05:04:18.360 --> 05:04:21.120 to look into so again not used perhaps 6888 05:04:21.120 --> 05:04:23.820 as much as the present perfect tense but 6889 05:04:23.820 --> 05:04:26.218 great for storytelling and for imagining 6890 05:04:26.218 --> 05:04:29.400 your future too okay so let's move on to 6891 05:04:29.400 --> 05:04:32.040 the last point for today's lesson the 6892 05:04:32.040 --> 05:04:34.798 future perfect continuous tense future 6893 05:04:34.798 --> 05:04:37.980 perfect continuous this is a tense that 6894 05:04:37.980 --> 05:04:40.680 you use similar to the last one but for 6895 05:04:40.680 --> 05:04:43.378 actions you think will or won't have 6896 05:04:43.378 --> 05:04:47.160 started and will be continuing so 6897 05:04:47.160 --> 05:04:50.100 something that's going to have started 6898 05:04:50.100 --> 05:04:52.138 again in the future something started 6899 05:04:52.138 --> 05:04:54.540 and the action will have continued into 6900 05:04:54.540 --> 05:04:57.840 the future example I won't have been 6901 05:04:57.840 --> 05:05:00.718 eating meat for three months I won't 6902 05:05:00.718 --> 05:05:02.280 have been eating meat for three months 6903 05:05:02.280 --> 05:05:04.878 so for this one let's imagine 6904 05:05:04.878 --> 05:05:07.560 that you decided last month to stop 6905 05:05:07.560 --> 05:05:10.138 eating meat so that's fine actually for 6906 05:05:10.138 --> 05:05:11.878 this for this sentence that's okay you 6907 05:05:11.878 --> 05:05:14.340 made a decision last month to stop 6908 05:05:14.340 --> 05:05:15.660 eating meat 6909 05:05:15.660 --> 05:05:19.080 then someone asks you about your 6910 05:05:19.080 --> 05:05:21.298 progress like how's it going 6911 05:05:21.298 --> 05:05:23.458 um like what are you going to do next 6912 05:05:23.458 --> 05:05:25.919 month and you can say to yourself hmm 6913 05:05:25.919 --> 05:05:29.100 well at that point next month by next 6914 05:05:29.100 --> 05:05:31.798 month in the future uh you can use this 6915 05:05:31.798 --> 05:05:35.340 sentence I won't so won't negative will 6916 05:05:35.340 --> 05:05:39.419 not I won't have been eating meat for 6917 05:05:39.419 --> 05:05:41.580 three months for three months so that 6918 05:05:41.580 --> 05:05:44.218 means from the point in time I started 6919 05:05:44.218 --> 05:05:47.520 it in the past until this point in the 6920 05:05:47.520 --> 05:05:50.280 future so not present but into the 6921 05:05:50.280 --> 05:05:51.740 future 6922 05:05:51.740 --> 05:05:56.280 this entire time my behavior not eating 6923 05:05:56.280 --> 05:05:59.759 meat that's going to have continued so 6924 05:05:59.759 --> 05:06:02.100 you're making a guess about the future 6925 05:06:02.100 --> 05:06:05.218 so at this future point in time that 6926 05:06:05.218 --> 05:06:07.500 behavior I started in the past will have 6927 05:06:07.500 --> 05:06:09.540 continued and continued and continued 6928 05:06:09.540 --> 05:06:11.700 and at this point it will be three 6929 05:06:11.700 --> 05:06:13.798 months three months total for that 6930 05:06:13.798 --> 05:06:16.138 behavior so we use this to talk about 6931 05:06:16.138 --> 05:06:19.138 something some future thing that will 6932 05:06:19.138 --> 05:06:22.080 have continued or will be continuing 6933 05:06:22.080 --> 05:06:24.780 into the future so we'll have continued 6934 05:06:24.780 --> 05:06:26.638 meaning something that started in the 6935 05:06:26.638 --> 05:06:29.520 past and continues into the future or 6936 05:06:29.520 --> 05:06:32.218 will be continuing meaning it's still 6937 05:06:32.218 --> 05:06:35.520 going into the future as well so there 6938 05:06:35.520 --> 05:06:37.560 are a couple of like very very subtle 6939 05:06:37.560 --> 05:06:39.718 grammar points to consider there too so 6940 05:06:39.718 --> 05:06:41.400 that those are a couple of maybe tough 6941 05:06:41.400 --> 05:06:43.560 grammar points but they're really good 6942 05:06:43.560 --> 05:06:45.419 for storytelling and for talking about 6943 05:06:45.419 --> 05:06:48.600 your future as well okay so I know that 6944 05:06:48.600 --> 05:06:50.638 this was a lot of information in this 6945 05:06:50.638 --> 05:06:53.100 lesson if you have some questions about 6946 05:06:53.100 --> 05:06:55.860 where to find more details about any of 6947 05:06:55.860 -->

realized 7021 05:10:36.958 --> 05:10:39.240 he was in gustavo's way 7022 05:10:39.240 --> 05:10:41.638 sorry about that 7023 05:10:41.638 --> 05:10:44.820 sorry about that 7024 05:10:44.820 --> 05:10:47.520 in general this expression when used to 7025 05:10:47.520 --> 05:10:50.100 respond to excuse me shows a friendly 7026 05:10:50.100 --> 05:10:52.320 willingness to help the other person 7027 05:10:52.320 --> 05:10:54.660 in this case Henry wanted to show he was 7028 05:10:54.660 --> 05:10:57.120 happy to move out of gustavo's way 7029 05:10:57.120 --> 05:10:59.520 you can also use it to apologize for a 7030 05:10:59.520 --> 05:11:01.378 small mistake like bumping into someone 7031 05:11:01.378 --> 05:11:03.240 on the street or blocking someone's way 7032 05:11:03.240 --> 05:11:05.280 in the aisle of a supermarket 7033 05:11:05.280 --> 05:11:07.680 now you try say Henry's line after 7034 05:11:07.680 --> 05:11:09.958 Gustavo speaks 7035 05:11:09.958 --> 05:11:12.860 excuse me 7036 05:11:17.759 --> 05:11:20.040 sorry about that 7037 05:11:20.040 --> 05:11:22.740 later Gustavo also used the word sorry 7038 05:11:22.740 --> 05:11:24.540 to apologize when he didn't understand 7039 05:11:24.540 --> 05:11:28.259 Henry's name which phrase did he use 7040 05:11:28.259 --> 05:11:30.360 I'm sorry 7041 05:11:30.360 --> 05:11:32.100 I'm sorry 7042 05:11:32.100 --> 05:11:34.020 this is a very common phrase in English 7043 05:11:34.020 --> 05:11:36.718 from many situations but here Gustavo 7044 05:11:36.718 --> 05:11:38.340 uses it to indicate he didn't understand 7045 05:11:38.340 --> 05:11:39.780 something 7046 05:11:39.780 --> 05:11:42.600 now you try say the line after Henry 7047 05:11:42.600 --> 05:11:43.980 speaks 7048 05:11:43.980 --> 05:11:47.600 I'm Henry Eddins 7049 05:11:52.080 --> 05:11:54.120 I'm sorry 7050 05:11:54.120 --> 05:11:55.860 because Gustavo did not understand 7051 05:11:55.860 --> 05:11:58.200 something he asked Henry to repeat what 7052 05:11:58.200 --> 05:12:00.718 he said to do this what polite question 7053 05:12:00.718 --> 05:12:02.580 did he use 7054 05:12:02.580 --> 05:12:05.638 can you say that again please 7055 05:12:05.638 --> 05:12:09.958 can you say that again please 7056 05:12:09.958 --> 05:12:12.298 in response English speakers will 7057 05:12:12.298 --> 05:12:14.100 usually repeat what they have said and 7058 05:12:14.100 --> 05:12:15.958 will use the same words 7059 05:12:15.958 --> 05:12:18.060 now you try ask the question after 7060 05:12:18.060 --> 05:12:20.940 Gustavo says I'm sorry 7061 05:12:20.940 --> 05:12:23.780 I'm sorry 7062 05:12:28.500 --> 05:12:31.620 can you say that again please 7063 05:12:31.620 --> 05:12:34.020 Gustavo also wanted Henry to speak more 7064 05:12:34.020 --> 05:12:37.620 slowly to do this what does he ask 7065 05:12:37.620 --> 05:12:39.780 a bit slowly 7066 05:12:39.780 --> 05:12:42.360 a bit slowly 7067 05:12:42.360 --> 05:12:44.580 this is not a complete sentence but has 7068 05:12:44.580 --> 05:12:46.980 a clear meaning when used after can you 7069 05:12:46.980 --> 05:12:48.480 say that again please 7070 05:12:48.480 --> 05:12:50.878 in response English speakers will slow 7071 05:12:50.878 --> 05:12:52.500 their speech down 7072 05:12:52.500 --> 05:12:53.820 now you try 7073 05:12:53.820 --> 05:12:56.280 say the phrase after Gustavo says can 7074 05:12:56.280 --> 05:12:58.620 you say that again please 7075 05:12:58.620 --> 05:13:02.298 can you say that again please 7076 05:13:07.080 --> 05:13:09.360 a bit slowly 7077 05:13:09.360 --> 05:13:12.000 after Gustavo said Henry's name Henry 7078 05:13:12.000 --> 05:13:14.160 confirmed he said it correctly how did 7079 05:13:14.160 --> 05:13:15.718 he do that 7080 05:13:15.718 --> 05:13:17.700 that's it 7081 05:13:17.700 --> 05:13:19.560 that's it 7082 05:13:19.560 --> 05:13:22.440 this is like saying that's correct but 7083 05:13:22.440 --> 05:13:24.718 since the situation was friendly that's 7084 05:13:24.718 --> 05:13:27.000 it sounded more natural 7085 05:13:27.000 --> 05:13:29.878 now you try say the phrase after Gustavo 7086 05:13:29.878 --> 05:13:32.160 says Henry's name correctly 7087 05:13:32.160 --> 05:13:35.718 Henry Eddins 7088 05:13:40.378 --> 05:13:43.218 that's it 7089 05:13:43.798 --> 05:13:46.320 now the lesson Focus here's how to 7090 05:13:46.320 --> 05:13:47.940 introduce yourself 7091 05:13:47.940 --> 05:13:50.360 ready 7092 05:13:51.600 --> 05:13:53.520 do you remember how Gustavo introduced 7093 05:13:53.520 --> 05:13:55.378 himself 7094 05:13:55.378 --> 05:13:59.940 hi how do you do I'm Gustavo 7095 05:13:59.940 --> 05:14:02.280 when Gustavo introduced himself he 7096 05:14:02.280 --> 05:14:04.919 started with Hi and then used a set 7097 05:14:04.919 --> 05:14:06.900 phrase 7098 05:14:06.900 --> 05:14:09.600 how do you do 7099 05:14:09.600 --> 05:14:13.378 how do you do 7100 05:14:13.378 --> 05:14:15.660 this is a polite expression people often 7101 05:14:15.660 --> 05:14:17.878 use with an introduction it sounds like 7102 05:14:17.878 --> 05:14:19.919 a question but it has no particular 7103 05:14:19.919 --> 05:14:21.840 meaning and there's no expectation the 7104 05:14:21.840 --> 05:14:24.540 other person will try to answer it 7105 05:14:24.540 --> 05:14:27.060 next he says 7106 05:14:27.060 --> 05:14:29.458 I'm Gustavo 7107 05:14:29.458 --> 05:14:31.259 the first part of this sentence is a 7108 05:14:31.259 --> 05:14:34.740 contraction of two words I and am the am 7109 05:14:34.740 --> 05:14:36.958 here functions like an equal sign in 7110 05:14:36.958 --> 05:14:38.520 math 7111 05:14:38.520 --> 05:14:39.718 I'm 7112 05:14:39.718 --> 05:14:41.340 I'm 7113 05:14:41.340 --> 05:14:44.700 the next word in the sentence is a name 7114 05:14:44.700 --> 05:14:46.560 Gustavo 7115 05:14:46.560 --> 05:14:48.298 together it's 7116 05:14:48.298 --> 05:14:50.700 I'm Gustavo 7117 05:14:50.700 --> 05:14:53.040 the structure of the pattern is 7118 05:14:53.040 --> 05:14:55.620 hi how do you do I'm 7119 05:14:55.620 --> 05:14:58.138 plus your name 7120 05:14:58.138 --> 05:15:00.840 now you try imagine your name is John 7121 05:15:00.840 --> 05:15:06.798 say hi how do you do I'm John 7122 05:15:11.340 --> 05:15:15.298 hi how do you do I'm John 7123 05:15:15.298 --> 05:15:18.900 now imagine your name is eichel say hi 7124 05:15:18.900 --> 05:15:23.540 how do you do I'm Aiko 7125 05:15:28.138 --> 05:15:32.100 hi how do you do I'm ikel 7126 05:15:32.100 --> 05:15:35.600 now use your name 7127 05:15:39.958 --> 05:15:42.718 okay there are two additional things you 7128 05:15:42.718 --> 05:15:45.060 need to know first there's a shortcut 7129 05:15:45.060 --> 05:15:46.740 for giving your name 7130 05:15:46.740 --> 05:15:48.480 just drop the I'm from the final 7131 05:15:48.480 --> 05:15:51.000 sentence of the self-introduction 7132 05:15:51.000 --> 05:15:54.480 for example if Gustavo just said 7133 05:15:54.480 --> 05:15:58.020 hi how do you do Gustavo 7134 05:15:58.020 --> 05:15:59.820 Henry would have understood it was his 7135 05:15:59.820 --> 05:16:00.840 name 7136 05:16:00.840 --> 05:16:02.759 this would be especially clear if 7137 05:16:02.759 --> 05:16:04.500 Gustavo extended his hand for a 7138 05:16:04.500 --> 05:16:06.660 handshake while saying this 7139 05:16:06.660 --> 05:16:09.240 in very casual situations you can even 7140 05:16:09.240 --> 05:16:13.500 drop the hi and the how do you do all 7141 05:16:13.500 --> 05:16:15.660 that is left would be your name 7142 05:16:15.660 --> 05:16:17.820 the second thing you need to know is you 7143 05:16:17.820 --> 05:16:20.638 can use I'm with just the first name or 7144 05:16:20.638 --> 05:16:22.080 your first name and the last name 7145 05:16:22.080 --> 05:16:23.700 together 7146 05:16:23.700 --> 05:16:26.340 I'm Henry Eddins 7147 05:16:26.340 --> 05:16:29.160 Edens is Henry's family name 7148 05:16:29.160 --> 05:16:31.440 using both your first name and your last 7149 05:16:31.440 --> 05:16:33.540 name is a little more formal 7150 05:16:33.540 --> 05:16:36.180 it also gives you less privacy for 7151 05:16:36.180 --> 05:16:38.100 example if people know both your first 7152 05:16:38.100 --> 05:16:40.200 and last name they can find you on the 7153 05:16:40.200 --> 05:16:41.940 internet more easily 7154 05:16:41.940 --> 05:16:44.280 so it may be more common for strangers 7155 05:16:44.280 --> 05:16:45.958 to say just their first name than people 7156 05:16:45.958 --> 05:16:48.540 meeting in a more friendly environment 7157 05:16:48.540 --> 05:16:50.878 next you'll learn how to tell people to 7158 05:16:50.878 --> 05:16:52.860 call you by a
