Alicia in this 249 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:50.578 lesson I'm going to talk about could 250 00:10:50.578 --> 00:10:53.640 have should have and would have what 251 00:10:53.640 --> 00:10:55.440 they mean how to use them in the 252 00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:57.540 negative and the differences between 253 00:10:57.540 --> 00:11:00.958 them so let's get started first I want 254 00:11:00.958 --> 00:11:03.839 to begin with could have let's look at 255 00:11:03.839 --> 00:11:06.360 the positive and the negative meanings 256 00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:09.899 of could have first positive we use 257 00:11:09.899 --> 00:11:12.839 could have positive for something that 258 00:11:12.839 --> 00:11:16.740 was possible in the past so to give kind 259 00:11:16.740 --> 00:11:19.260 of an image of this if our conversation 260 00:11:19.260 --> 00:11:23.339 is happening now when we use could have 261 00:11:23.339 --> 00:11:26.339 we're talking about something that had 262 00:11:26.339 --> 00:11:29.640 possibility in the past something we 263 00:11:29.640 --> 00:11:33.059 were able to do for example an example 264 00:11:33.059 --> 00:11:37.019 sentence ah if I had known you were 265 00:11:37.019 --> 00:11:40.740 throwing a surprise party I could have 266 00:11:40.740 --> 00:11:45.179 helped I could have helped so here could 267 00:11:45.179 --> 00:11:48.600 have shows us that this action helping 268 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:51.958 was possible in the past in this case 269 00:11:51.958 --> 00:11:54.240 the speaker did not know some 270 00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:55.100 information 271 00:11:55.100 --> 00:11:58.078 and as a result this action did not 272 00:11:58.078 --> 00:12:01.860 happen but it was possible at a point in 273 00:12:01.860 --> 00:12:04.679 the past the speaker could have helped 274 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:07.800 helping was a possibility in the past so 275 00:12:07.800 --> 00:12:10.140 we use could have to express that 276 00:12:10.140 --> 00:12:11.399 possibility 277 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:14.700 the negative form however expresses the 278 00:12:14.700 --> 00:12:18.059 opposite so in the negative could 279 00:12:18.059 --> 00:12:20.519 not have 280 00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:23.660 expresses something that was impossible 281 00:12:23.660 --> 00:12:26.700 impossible so not possible in the past 282 00:12:26.700 --> 00:12:29.519 so here if we want to give an image it's 283 00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:32.760 something that was not possible 284 00:12:32.760 --> 00:12:36.059 something we were not able to do let's 285 00:12:36.059 --> 00:12:38.240 look at an example of this 286 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:42.958 no that couldn't have been Sarah in the 287 00:12:42.958 --> 00:12:46.800 cafe just now she's at the office so 288 00:12:46.800 --> 00:12:50.700 here I'm using couldn't have could not 289 00:12:50.700 --> 00:12:53.600 have contracted reduced becomes couldn't 290 00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:57.300 so that couldn't have been Sarah in the 291 00:12:57.300 --> 00:13:00.120 cafe just now in other words it's 292 00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.420 impossible that just now we saw Sarah in 293 00:13:03.420 --> 00:13:07.800 the cafe why she's at the office so in 294 00:13:07.800 --> 00:13:09.839 this case maybe Sarah is the speaker's 295 00:13:09.839 --> 00:13:12.480 colleague co-worker so we know Sarah is 296 00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:14.880 at the office so we saw someone maybe 297 00:13:14.880 --> 00:13:17.820 who looks like Sarah at the cafe just 298 00:13:17.820 --> 00:13:21.120 now but it's not possible it was Sarah 299 00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:23.700 because Sarah's at the office so we can 300 00:13:23.700 --> 00:13:27.360 say that couldn't have been so it's 301 00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:30.000 impossible that that was Sarah so 302 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.860 couldn't have been sounds much more 303 00:13:31.860 --> 00:13:34.139 natural than it's impossible that that 304 00:13:34.139 --> 00:13:36.540 was Sarah so we use couldn't have been 305 00:13:36.540 --> 00:13:38.578 or could not have been 306 00:13:38.578 --> 00:13:41.519 so positive form something that was 307 00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:45.120 possible in the past so be careful in 308 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:47.820 maybe contrast a key difference here is 309 00:13:47.820 --> 00:13:51.179 this is only about possibility we're not 310 00:13:51.179 --> 00:13:53.339 talking about like a plan to do 311 00:13:53.339 --> 00:13:56.279 something or regret necessarily we're 312 00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:59.100 only talking about possibility when we 313 00:13:59.100 --> 00:14:03.360 use could or could not here so with this 314 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:06.179 let's move along to the next part the 315 00:14:06.179 --> 00:14:08.940 next part I want to focus on should have 316 00:14:08.940 --> 00:14:11.519 so let's look at the positive form 317 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:14.940 should have in the positive expresses 318 00:14:14.940 --> 00:14:19.680 regret for something we did not do in 319 00:14:19.680 --> 00:14:22.740 the past so an image of this here if our 320 00:14:22.740 --> 00:14:25.680 conversation is happening now we want to 321 00:14:25.680 --> 00:14:27.420 talk about something 322 00:14:27.420 --> 00:14:31.980 we did not do in the past and that now 323 00:14:31.980 --> 00:14:35.480 maybe we think oh it's a good idea like 324 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.600 I should have done this thing I did not 325 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:41.880 do this thing in the past that's why I 326 00:14:41.880 --> 00:14:44.279 marked it with an X here so I did not do 327 00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:47.519 this thing but I feel bad now I feel 328 00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.000 regret like I should have done that 329 00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:53.880 thing in the past so an example sentence 330 00:14:53.880 --> 00:14:54.959 of this 331 00:14:54.959 --> 00:14:58.500 I should have studied more when I was in 332 00:14:58.500 --> 00:15:01.620 school here is the should have I should 333 00:15:01.620 --> 00:15:05.339 have and this action studied more 334 00:15:05.339 --> 00:15:08.820 so in other words the speaker did not 335 00:15:08.820 --> 00:15:11.459 study enough in the past the speaker 336 00:15:11.459 --> 00:15:14.040 feels he or she did not study enough in 337 00:15:14.040 --> 00:15:16.860 the past regrets that and wants to 338 00:15:16.860 --> 00:15:20.760 express the change like I wish I had 339 00:15:20.760 --> 00:15:23.579 done this thing I should have studied 340 00:15:23.579 --> 00:15:27.120 more when I was in school so here we 341 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.220 have more this is a common pattern with 342 00:15:29.220 --> 00:15:31.800 should have or should not have when we 343 00:15:31.800 --> 00:15:33.839 use more it means I should have studied 344 00:15:33.839 --> 00:15:37.800 more than I did when I was in school 345 00:15:37.800 --> 00:15:40.620 so here the speaker is Regret expressing 346 00:15:40.620 --> 00:15:43.920 regret sadness about something they did 347 00:15:43.920 --> 00:15:45.180 not do 348 00:15:45.180 --> 00:15:47.760 therefore when we use the negative form 349 00:15:47.760 --> 00:15:50.339 the speaker again expressed his regret 350 00:15:50.339 --> 00:15:53.100 yes but they're expressing regret for 351 00:15:53.100 --> 00:15:55.500 something that happened in the past 352 00:15:55.500 --> 00:15:58.019 something they did in the past so I've 353 00:15:58.019 --> 00:16:00.060 marked it here with a check this action 354 00:16:00.060 --> 00:16:04.019 did happen and we feel regret about that 355 00:16:04.019 --> 00:16:06.360 action we feel bad about something we 356 00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:10.019 did in the past an example I shouldn't 357 00:16:10.019 --> 00:16:12.899 have spent so much time playing video 358 00:16:12.899 --> 00:16:16.560 games when I was a kid so here I've used 359 00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:21.540 shouldn't have so should not have is how 360 00:16:21.540 --> 00:16:23.579 we make the negative form I've reduced 361 00:16:23.579 --> 00:16:25.740 it shouldn't have shouldn't have in 362 00:16:25.740 --> 00:16:27.959 Rapid speech shouldn't have I shouldn't 363 00:16:27.959 --> 00:16:30.120 have spent so much time playing video 364 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.180 games so what's the action here the 365 00:16:33.180 --> 00:16:35.880 speaker played video games when he or 366 00:16:35.880 --> 00:16:39.240 she was a child the speaker now regrets 367 00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:41.699 that the speaker says I shouldn't have 368 00:16:41.699 --> 00:16:44.220 spent so much time I should have spent 369 00:16:44.220 --> 00:16:47.519 less time playing video games so I could 370 00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:50.160 use positive should have I should have 371 00:16:50.160 --> 00:16:53.279 spent less time playing video games when 372 00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:55.620 I was a kid here I shouldn't have spent 373 00:16:55.620 --> 00:16:59.399 so much time so here a key point with 374 00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:01.380 should have is that we're expressing 375 00:17:01.380 --> 00:17:04.079 regret remember with could have we're 376 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:07.140 talking just about possibility with 377 00:17:07.140 --> 00:17:09.359 should have we're expressing a regret 378 00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:11.939 for something that did or did not happen 379 00:17:11.939 --> 00:17:15.000 in the past so with this in mind let's 380 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:17.280 go on to the last point for this lesson 381 00:17:17.280 --> 00:17:19.799 the last Point uh the last Point rather 382 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:22.260 is would have would have 383 00:17:22.260 --> 00:17:25.439 so when we say would have we often say 384 00:17:25.439 --> 00:17:27.959 would have would have I mentioned here 385 00:17:27.959 --> 00:17:30.059 with should have we say should have or 386 00:17:30.059 --> 00:17:31.980 shouldn't have same thing with could 387 00:17:31.980 --> 00:17:34.440 have like could have or couldn't have is 388 00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.500 the correct pronunciation in fast speech 389 00:17:37.500 --> 00:17:39.840 so when we talk about would have or when 390 00:17:39.840 --> 00:17:42.119 we look at would have and we look at the 391 00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:44.280 positive form 392 00:17:44.280 --> 00:17:47.280 um we use it to express a plan for 393 00:17:47.280 --> 00:17:50.580 something that did not happen so we're 394 00:17:50.580 --> 00:17:53.340 talking about something in the past so 395 00:17:53.340 --> 00:17:55.619 from a point in the past 396 00:17:55.619 --> 00:17:59.280 something in the future at that time 397 00:17:59.280 --> 00:18:01.500 we had a plan for that thing or we 398 00:18:01.500 --> 00:18:03.179 thought something was going to happen 399 00:18:03.179 --> 00:18:06.359 but in the positive form it did not 400 00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:08.880 happen this is kind of tricky let's look 401 00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:11.700 at an example situation here 402 00:18:11.700 --> 00:18:16.140 I would have arrived on time today but 403 00:18:16.140 --> 00:18:18.840 there was terrible traffic so I did not 404 00:18:18.840 --> 00:18:22.140 arrive on time so first here's my action 405 00:18:22.140 --> 00:18:25.260 I would have arrived on time 406 00:18:25.260 --> 00:18:30.240 so I had a plan or I had a desire I was 407 00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.299 thinking I was going to arrive on time 408 00:18:33.299 --> 00:18:36.359 so at this point in time I would have 409 00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:38.220 arrived on time today maybe we're 410 00:18:38.220 --> 00:18:39.960 thinking when I left the house maybe 411 00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:42.900 this is where the action starts my plan 412 00:18:42.900 --> 00:18:45.840 was to arrive on time so again this is 413 00:18:45.840 --> 00:18:47.940 all happening in the past my 414 00:18:47.940 --> 00:18:49.500 conversation is here 415 00:18:49.500 --> 00:18:52.559 I was planning to arrive on time but 416 00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:55.200 there was terrible traffic terrible 417 00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:57.419 traffic means lots and lots of cars it 418 00:18:57.419 --> 00:18:59.280 was difficult to drive or difficult to 419 00:18:59.280 --> 00:19:03.780 get to work so I did not arrive on time 420 00:19:03.780 --> 00:19:06.780 I would have arrived on time but I 421 00:19:06.780 --> 00:19:09.299 didn't because of terrible traffic so 422 00:19:09.299 --> 00:19:11.880 this shows us this would have shows us 423 00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.059 all of this information everything here 424 00:19:15.059 --> 00:19:17.940 happened in the past on like a timeline 425 00:19:17.940 --> 00:19:21.240 so I thought I was going to arrive on 426 00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:24.419 time something happened and I didn't 427 00:19:24.419 --> 00:19:27.240 so we can use would have to show like 428 00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:29.880 our thinking in this point would have in 429 00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:33.299 the past about a future action that is 430 00:19:33.299 --> 00:19:36.299 also in the past so a couple of past 431 00:19:36.299 --> 00:19:39.299 points there at the same time okay 432 00:19:39.299 --> 00:19:42.419 so let's compare this then to the 433 00:19:42.419 --> 00:19:44.640 negative form the negative form then 434 00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:48.119 expresses the opposite so we have a lack 435 00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:51.539 of plan or a lack of a desire so lack of 436 00:19:51.539 --> 00:19:54.840 something means no plan or no desire so 437 00:19:54.840 --> 00:19:57.720 lack of plan for something that happened 438 00:19:57.720 --> 00:20:01.020 in the past it did happen yes 439 00:20:01.020 --> 00:20:05.160 so we commonly use both of these to talk 440 00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:07.500 about other people's choices like when 441 00:20:07.500 --> 00:20:10.020 we're giving advice this example 442 00:20:10.020 --> 00:20:12.179 sentence is a very common way that we 443 00:20:12.179 --> 00:20:14.940 use would not have or wouldn't have 444 00:20:14.940 --> 00:20:18.179 let's look if I were you 445 00:20:18.179 --> 00:20:21.660 I wouldn't have quit my job before I 446 00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:25.740 found a new position so here is my would 447 00:20:25.740 --> 00:20:27.720 not have I've reduced it to wouldn't 448 00:20:27.720 --> 00:20:31.440 have I would not have quit my job before 449 00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:34.020 I found a new position 450 00:20:34.020 --> 00:20:37.559 so that means if I were you this is how 451 00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:39.179 we're beginning this this is a very 452 00:20:39.179 --> 00:20:42.000 common way that this would have or would 453 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:43.619 not have is used 454 00:20:43.619 --> 00:20:47.340 so if I were you I'm not you but if I 455 00:20:47.340 --> 00:20:50.059 were at this point in time in the past 456 00:20:50.059 --> 00:20:52.260 my decision 457 00:20:52.260 --> 00:20:56.000 would not have been to quit my job 458 00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:59.940 however your decision was to quit your 459 00:20:59.940 --> 00:21:03.539 job this did happen you quit your job in 460 00:21:03.539 --> 00:21:07.260 my case I would not have done that so 461 00:21:07.260 --> 00:21:09.840 here in opposite to the positive form 462 00:21:09.840 --> 00:21:12.240 I'm talking about a point in the past 463 00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:15.480 like if I were you just in general and 464 00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:18.359 I'm talking about a future decision I 465 00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:20.820 might make in this case the person 466 00:21:20.820 --> 00:21:23.039 listening did choose to quit his or her 467 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.919 job I'm saying I would not have quit my 468 00:21:25.919 --> 00:21:28.440 job that would not have been my decision 469 00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:30.059 for the future 470 00:21:30.059 --> 00:21:33.539 so again there's kind of this idea of 471 00:21:33.539 --> 00:21:35.700 two points in the past like a kind of a 472 00:21:35.700 --> 00:21:38.760 general I guess a starting point in the 473 00:21:38.760 --> 00:21:41.700 past if I were you in this case and some 474 00:21:41.700 --> 00:21:44.580 decision some plan some like desire or 475 00:21:44.580 --> 00:21:46.919 lack of desire in this case in the 476 00:21:46.919 --> 00:21:49.559 negative form so we use these like I 477 00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:51.659 said to talk about like other people's 478 00:21:51.659 --> 00:21:54.539 choices when we're giving advice like oh 479 00:21:54.539 --> 00:21:58.020 if I were you I would have done this in 480 00:21:58.020 --> 00:22:00.900 the past so we use would have to talk 481 00:22:00.900 --> 00:22:04.679 about uh past decisions and maybe to 482 00:22:04.679 --> 00:22:06.840 talk about things 483 00:22:06.840 --> 00:22:09.359 um like if you if you were the speaker 484 00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:12.419 like things you might change what would 485 00:22:12.419 --> 00:22:15.299 you do differently so we use this to 486 00:22:15.299 --> 00:22:17.760 talk about these sorts of past past 487 00:22:17.760 --> 00:22:20.340 decisions and give advice and talk about 488 00:22:20.340 --> 00:22:23.580 how we might make different decisions in 489 00:22:23.580 --> 00:22:27.059 the future so this kind of expresses a 490 00:22:27.059 --> 00:22:30.840 desire or lack of Desire this one should 491 00:22:30.840 --> 00:22:34.080 have expresses regret in the past could 492 00:22:34.080 --> 00:22:37.320 have expresses possibility so this is 493 00:22:37.320 --> 00:22:39.480 just a quick introduction to the 494 00:22:39.480 --> 00:22:41.159 differences between these three 495 00:22:41.159 --> 00:22:43.679 expressions and their negative forms I 496 00:22:43.679 --> 00:22:45.659 didn't write the not here so would not 497 00:22:45.659 --> 00:22:48.900 have but if you have any other questions 498 00:22:48.900 --> 00:22:50.940 about this please let us know in the 499 00:22:50.940 --> 00:22:53.640 comments they are very similar I know 500 00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:55.919 they sound very similar and it can be 501 00:22:55.919 --> 00:22:58.740 hard to understand how to use them but 502 00:22:58.740 --> 00:23:01.080 try to keep these three kind of themes 503 00:23:01.080 --> 00:23:05.039 in mind possibility and regret and then 504 00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:08.700 kind of Desire or advice here so I hope 505 00:23:08.700 --> 00:23:10.260 that this helps you understand the 506 00:23:10.260 --> 00:23:12.419 differences between these three if you 507 00:23:12.419 --> 00:23:14.220 have questions or comments or if you 508 00:23:14.220 --> 00:23:16.080 want to practice making an example 509 00:23:16.080 --> 00:23:18.299 sentence please feel free to do so in 510 00:23:18.299 --> 00:23:20.400 the comment section of this video of 511 00:23:20.400 -->

but in the 549 00:25:02.100 --> 00:25:04.500 United States people will usually ask 550 00:25:04.500 --> 00:25:06.780 this question and answer it in a 551 00:25:06.780 --> 00:25:08.340 different way 552 00:25:08.340 --> 00:25:11.039 first let's review 553 00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:14.280 if someone says how are you you can say 554 00:25:14.280 --> 00:25:16.200 I'm fine 555 00:25:16.200 -->

thing as I'm 559 00:25:25.980 --> 00:25:27.119 fine 560 00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:28.980 pretty good 561 00:25:28.980 --> 00:25:32.220 we also have not bad 562 00:25:32.220 --> 00:25:34.619 you can use

566 00:25:42.419 --> 00:25:44.820 this is the most well-known way of 567 00:25:44.820 --> 00:25:46.799 asking how someone is 568 00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:48.720 you could use it when you want to be 569 00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:49.679 polite 570 00:25:49.679 --> 00:25:52.140 but now let's look at some different 571 00:25:52.140 --> 00:25:55.140 ways to ask how someone is 572 00:25:55.140 --> 00:25:58.440 these ways are more casual and much more 573 00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.340 common 574 00:25:59.340 --> 00:26:02.880 first hey how's it going 575 00:26:02.880 --> 00:26:05.520 hey how's it going 576 00:26:05.520 --> 00:26:08.640 you can answer this in many ways if 577 00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:12.419 you're feeling good you can say good 578 00:26:12.419 --> 00:26:13.919 good 579 00:26:13.919 --> 00:26:15.779 pretty good 580 00:26:15.779 --> 00:26:17.279 pretty good 581 00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:19.020 not bad 582 00:26:19.020 --> 00:26:20.820 not bad 583 00:26:20.820 --> 00:26:23.520 once more good 584 00:26:23.520 --> 00:26:28.320 pretty good not bad here's a tip even 585 00:26:28.320 --> 00:26:30.900 though these answers mean the same thing 586 00:26:30.900 --> 00:26:34.440 as I'm fine you can't answer how's it 587 00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:37.919 going with I'm fine it will sound a bit 588 00:26:37.919 --> 00:26:39.240 strange 589 00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:42.359 if you're not feeling good you can say 590 00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:44.460 not so good 591 00:26:44.460 --> 00:26:46.619 not so good 592 00:26:46.619 --> 00:26:48.299 not great 593 00:26:48.299 --> 00:26:52.559 not great or not so well 594 00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:54.539 not so well 595 00:26:54.539 --> 00:26:58.320 be careful if you say one of these the 596 00:26:58.320 --> 00:27:01.440 other person will usually ask why what's 597 00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:05.159 wrong to be polite then you will have to 598 00:27:05.159 --> 00:27:06.359 explain 599 00:27:06.359 --> 00:27:09.359 another casual but very common version 600 00:27:09.359 --> 00:27:12.720 of how are you is what's up 601 00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:14.400 what's up 602 00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:17.880 to reply use a cheerful voice as you say 603 00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:22.340 not much not much or nothing much 604 00:27:22.340 --> 00:27:24.419 nothing much 605 00:27:24.419 --> 00:27:27.900 this means you are free and able to chat 606 00:27:27.900 --> 00:27:31.260 since what's up is just another way of 607 00:27:31.260 --> 00:27:34.799 saying hello you can also reply with hey 608 00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:37.020 or hi 609 00:27:37.020 --> 00:27:40.859 now it's time for Alicia's advice a lot 610 00:27:40.859 --> 00:27:43.200 of the time when we ask questions that 611 00:27:43.200 --> 00:27:46.080 mean how are you in English we're not 612 00:27:46.080 --> 00:27:48.600 actually asking about the other person's 613 00:27:48.600 --> 00:27:51.419 health we're only asking to be polite 614 00:27:51.419 --> 00:27:54.179 you should think of these questions as 615 00:27:54.179 --> 00:27:57.119 another way of saying hello a way for 616 00:27:57.119 --> 00:27:59.700 the conversation to get started instead 617 00:27:59.700 --> 00:28:03.720 of actual literal questions in fact when 618 00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:06.659 someone asks you what's up you don't 619 00:28:06.659 --> 00:28:09.480 even have to answer just say what's up 620 00:28:09.480 --> 00:28:11.340 in reply 621 00:28:11.340 --> 00:28:14.279 do you know the difference between what 622 00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:17.460 do you do and what are you doing 623 00:28:17.460

00:30:05.390 questions see you next time 662 00:30:05.390 --> 00:30:11.100 [Music] 663 00:30:11.100 --> 00:30:13.080 everybody welcome back to ask Alicia the 664 00:30:13.080 --> 00:30:14.880 weekly series where you ask me questions 665 00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:17.580 and I answer them maybe okay let's get 666 00:30:17.580 --> 00:30:19.679 to your first question this week first 667 00:30:19.679 --> 00:30:22.020 question this week comes from Sadaf hi 668 00:30:22.020 --> 00:30:25.020 Sadaf Sadaf says hi Alicia my question 669 00:30:25.020 --> 00:30:28.140 is when do we use actually and when do 670 00:30:28.140 --> 00:30:30.779 we use really I'm always confused about 671 00:30:30.779 --> 00:30:33.299 whether to use really or actually in a 672 00:30:33.299 --> 00:30:35.159 sentence love from Pakistan cool thanks 673 00:30:35.159 --> 00:30:37.080 for the question sure yeah let's talk 674 00:30:37.080 --> 00:30:40.020 about really and actually let's start 675 00:30:40.020 --> 00:30:43.200 with the word really we use really to 676 00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:45.600 emphasize something we tend to use it a 677 00:30:45.600 --> 00:30:47.640 lot for example in front of adjectives 678 00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:49.559 when we want to show that something is 679 00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:52.740 especially or extra that adjective for 680 00:30:52.740 --> 00:30:56.159 example this is really beautiful or that 681 00:30:56.159 --> 00:30:58.440 dinner was really delicious you can 682 00:30:58.440 --> 00:31:00.960 think of this use as similar to very 683 00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.179 right so when we want to emphasize 684 00:31:03.179 --> 00:31:05.159 something we say that it is really 685 00:31:05.159 --> 00:31:08.760 something in contrast actually is used 686 00:31:08.760 --> 00:31:10.980 to talk about things that are truly some 687 00:31:10.980 --> 00:31:13.860 something else so I can understand why 688 00:31:13.860 --> 00:31:16.020 really and actually might seem like they 689 00:31:16.020 --> 00:31:18.659 have similar uses but we use actually 690 00:31:18.659 --> 00:31:20.940 when we want to clarify something when 691 00:31:20.940 --> 00:31:22.980 we want to express that something is 692 00:31:22.980 --> 00:31:25.500 true or something was real so we use 693 00:31:25.500 --> 00:31:27.539 this when maybe someone has made a 694 00:31:27.539 --> 00:31:29.880 comment that is not true or is not 695 00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:32.220 correct and we want to correct their 696 00:31:32.220 --> 00:31:34.500 comment so for example if someone says 697 00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:36.899 to you hey didn't you pass your English 698 00:31:36.899 --> 00:31:38.940 exam last week that was last week right 699 00:31:38.940 --> 00:31:41.940 you might say actually my exam is next 700 00:31:41.940 --> 00:31:45.059 week so that actually means truly or 701 00:31:45.059 --> 00:31:47.220 really or it's like a kind of Correction 702 00:31:47.220 --> 00:31:49.799 to the thing the other person said so we 703 00:31:49.799 --> 00:31:52.559 use actually when we need to correct or 704 00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:55.320 clarify something we use really when we 705 00:31:55.320 --> 00:31:57.419 need to emphasize something here's 706 00:31:57.419 --> 00:31:59.940 another example with actually let's look 707 00:31:59.940 --> 00:32:02.520 at another example situation hey I 708 00:32:02.520 --> 00:32:04.260 haven't received that file yet did you 709 00:32:04.260 --> 00:32:07.080 send it to me oh actually I forgot I'm 710 00:32:07.080 --> 00:32:09.960 so sorry about that so in that example 711 00:32:09.960 --> 00:32:12.779 situation it might be someone clarifying 712 00:32:12.779 --> 00:32:15.600 the situation for another person so they 713 00:32:15.600 --> 00:32:17.940 use actually to express some kind of 714 00:32:17.940 --> 00:32:20.940 true or real information so I hope that 715 00:32:20.940 --> 00:32:22.200 this helps you understand the 716 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:24.620 differences between really and actually 717 00:32:24.620 --> 00:32:27.240 emphasis and kind of clarification or 718 00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:29.279 correction of information thanks very 719 00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:31.020 much for the question okay let's get to 720 00:32:31.020 --> 00:32:33.059 your next question next question comes 721 00:32:33.059 --> 00:32:36.299 from Nabil hi Nabil Nabil says what is 722 00:32:36.299 --> 00:32:40.380 the difference between or and nor thank 723 00:32:40.380 --> 00:32:42.120 you yeah good question they seem really 724 00:32:42.120 --> 00:32:44.279 similar right or and nor there's just 725 00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:47.220 one letter different so we use or and 726 00:32:47.220 --> 00:32:50.460 nor in positive and negative expressions 727 00:32:50.460 --> 00:32:52.620 for example when you're choosing between 728 00:32:52.620 --> 00:32:55.020 two things someone might offer you a 729 00:32:55.020 --> 00:32:56.700 choice they might say would you like the 730 00:32:56.700 --> 00:32:59.100 red shirt or the blue shirt for example 731 00:32:59.100 --> 00:33:02.520 so we're using or to show an offer in 732 00:33:02.520 --> 00:33:04.080 this case or we're using it in a 733 00:33:04.080 --> 00:33:07.500 question pattern we use nor in negative 734 00:33:07.500 --> 00:33:10.020 sentence patterns for example you might 735 00:33:10.020 --> 00:33:13.080 respond to that as I would like neither 736 00:33:13.080 --> 00:33:16.320 the red shirt nor the blue shirt so 737 00:33:16.320 --> 00:33:18.480 you're showing that both of the options 738 00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:20.580 are not what you want they're not what 739 00:33:20.580 --> 00:33:23.340 you're looking for we use nor to express 740 00:33:23.340 --> 00:33:25.980 that this tends to sound a little bit 741 00:33:25.980 --> 00:33:28.200 more formal we don't use these kinds of 742 00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.360 patterns so much in everyday speech now 743 00:33:30.360 --> 00:33:32.039 but you might hear them from time to 744 00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:34.260 time so the key here though is that 745 00:33:34.260 --> 00:33:36.539 you're using it in a negative sentence 746 00:33:36.539 --> 00:33:38.820 in this example I said I would like 747 00:33:38.820 --> 00:33:41.880 neither the red shirt nor the blue shirt 748 00:33:41.880 --> 00:33:43.980 so using or in this example sentence 749 00:33:43.980 --> 00:33:46.019 would be incorrect I would like neither 750 00:33:46.019 --> 00:33:48.120 the red shirt or the blue shirt would be 751 00:33:48.120 --> 00:33:50.460 totally incorrect we have to match the 752 00:33:50.460 --> 00:33:53.279 negative neither with nor in this 753 00:33:53.279 --> 00:33:55.320 sentence pattern so if you want to 754 00:33:55.320 --> 00:33:57.480 express that two choices or multiple 755 00:33:57.480 --> 00:34:00.000 choices are all not acceptable for you 756 00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:02.039 and you want to use this kind of pattern 757 00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:03.840 you can totally do that but just 758 00:34:03.840 --> 00:34:06.600 remember you can't interchange or and 759 00:34:06.600 --> 00:34:09.960 nor so in some or is is used to present 760 00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:12.300 different options like colors or maybe 761 00:34:12.300 --> 00:34:15.780 sizes whatever it is and nor is used to 762 00:34:15.780 --> 00:34:18.419 respond to those in a negative sentence 763 00:34:18.419 --> 00:34:20.099 pattern so I hope that this helps you 764 00:34:20.099 --> 00:34:22.020 understand the differences between or 765 00:34:22.020 --> 00:34:24.060 and nor thanks very much for the 766 00:34:24.060 --> 00:34:25.859 question okay let's go to your next 767 00:34:25.859 --> 00:34:28.139 question next question comes from Sergey 768 00:34:28.139 --> 00:34:30.839 hi Sergey Sergey says Hi teacher I hope 769 00:34:30.839 --> 00:34:32.820 all is well I just watched your video 770 00:34:32.820 --> 00:34:34.980 about the word shoot and it reminded me 771 00:34:34.980 --> 00:34:37.800 of a song by Divine called shoot your 772 00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:40.739 shot I thought the name of the song is 773 00:34:40.739 --> 00:34:43.200 something like an English idiom and the 774 00:34:43.200 --> 00:34:45.599 meaning is do what you consider you have 775 00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:48.060 to do am I right is this expression used 776 00:34:48.060 --> 00:34:50.760 nowadays yeah good question so shoot 777 00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:52.980 your shot yes you're very close with 778 00:34:52.980 --> 00:34:55.320 your example with do what you consider 779 00:34:55.320 --> 00:34:57.960 you need to do the expression shoot your 780 00:34:57.960 --> 00:34:59.520 shot it might be helpful to think of 781 00:34:59.520 --> 00:35:02.160 this as a sports related expression you 782 00:35:02.160 --> 00:35:04.320 can think of shoot your shot as meaning 783 00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:06.839 try to do the thing that you think you 784 00:35:06.839 --> 00:35:09.119 want to do so for example if if you 785 00:35:09.119 --> 00:35:11.400 imagine a basketball player trying to 786 00:35:11.400 --> 00:35:14.940 shoot his or her shot they try to make a 787 00:35:14.940 --> 00:35:17.760 basket in this example situation so when 788 00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:19.980 you say shoot your shot to someone it 789 00:35:19.980 --> 00:35:22.140 means try to do the thing that you think 790 00:35:22.140 --> 00:35:24.359 you want to do there are many different 791 00:35:24.359 --> 00:35:26.520 situations where we use this expression 792 00:35:26.520 --> 00:35:28.859 we tend to use it a lot in situations 793 00:35:28.859 --> 00:35:31.140 that have kind of a challenging feel or 794 00:35:31.140 --> 00:35:32.820 maybe that make us a little bit nervous 795 00:35:32.820 --> 00:35:35.520 like for example asking someone out on a 796 00:35:35.520 --> 00:35:37.500 date or talking to someone that you find 797 00:35:37.500 --> 00:35:40.320 attractive in a social situation you 798 00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:41.940 might try to encourage your friend and 799 00:35:41.940 --> 00:35:44.760 say gone shoot your shot which means try 800 00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.800 to talk to that person or try to get to 801 00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:49.380 know that person so in those situations 802 00:35:49.380 --> 00:35:51.420 it's always like try to do the thing 803 00:35:51.420 --> 00:35:53.640 that you want to do or give it a go is 804 00:35:53.640 --> 00:35:55.320 another way you might hear this 805 00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:57.300 expressed so these are all kind of 806 00:35:57.300 --> 00:35:59.640 encouraging Expressions that are like 807 00:35:59.640 --> 00:36:01.260 saying try it if you think you need to 808 00:36:01.260 --> 00:36:02.760 do it or you think you want to do it 809 00:36:02.760 --> 00:36:05.099 give it a try so that's what this shoot 810 00:36:05.099 --> 00:36:07.200 your shot expression means thanks very 811 00:36:07.200 --> 00:36:08.579 much for the question I hope that it 812 00:36:08.579 --> 00:36:11.040 helped you okay that is everything that 813 00:36:11.040 --> 00:36:12.599 I have for this week thank you as always 814 00:36:12.599

twisters tongue twisters are phrases 845 00:37:16.500 --> 00:37:18.719 that are difficult to say so they're 846 00:37:18.719 --> 00:37:20.520 really good chances to practice your 847 00:37:20.520 --> 00:37:23.540 pronunciation let's go Sally sold 848 00:37:23.540 --> 00:37:27.119 seashells by the seashore Sally sold 849 00:37:27.119 --> 00:37:29.640 seashells by the seashore this one's 850 00:37:29.640 --> 00:37:32.400 difficult because of this and Sh sounds 851 00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:34.800 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 852 00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:36.660 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 853 00:37:36.660 --> 00:37:39.599 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 854 00:37:39.599 --> 00:37:41.820 that one's not so bad okay okay we'll 855 00:37:41.820 --> 00:37:44.640 move on next Betty botter bought some 856 00:37:44.640 --> 00:37:47.040 butter but she said the Butter's bitter 857 00:37:47.040 --> 00:37:50.160 I've never seen this before okay Betty 858 00:37:50.160 --> 00:37:52.320 botter bought some butter but she said 859 00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:54.839 the Butter's bitter that's a good one 860 00:37:54.839 --> 00:37:56.520 that's a good one I feel like he could 861 00:37:56.520 --> 00:37:57.900 have thrown the word like butt in there 862 00:37:57.900 --> 00:37:59.820 somewhere too Betty botter bought some 863 00:37:59.820 --> 00:38:01.560 butter but she said the Butter's bitter 864 00:38:01.560 --> 00:38:03.719 oh that's a good one it's very bubbly 865 00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:05.760 Betty bought her bought some butter but 866 00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:07.079 she said the Butter's bitter it's like 867 00:38:07.079 --> 00:38:08.820 if I if I knew the words I could 868 00:38:08.820 --> 00:38:10.560 probably say it faster Betty bought or 869 00:38:10.560 --> 00:38:11.700 bought some butter but she said the 870 00:38:11.700 --> 00:38:13.200 Butter's bitter butter Butter's bitter 871 00:38:13.200 --> 00:38:15.239 bitter butter butter bitter but she 872 00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:16.320 bought some butter but she said the 873 00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:19.200 Butter's bitter is this enough I don't 874 00:38:19.200 --> 00:38:22.739 know when to stop how much wood would a 875 00:38:22.739 --> 00:38:25.560 woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could 876 00:38:25.560 --> 00:38:28.440 chuck wood the next tuck twister is also 877 00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:29.880 a classic one about woodchucks 878 00:38:29.880 --> 00:38:32.640 woodchucks are real creatures that exist 879 00:38:32.640 --> 00:38:34.619 on the west coast of the United States 880 00:38:34.619 --> 00:38:37.260 primarily in Washington Oregon they're 881 00:38:37.260 --> 00:38:39.119 like beavers but they don't live in 882 00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:40.980 rivers they live in like forests and 883 00:38:40.980 --> 00:38:43.260 rocks the tongue twister is how much 884 00:38:43.260 --> 00:38:44.700 wood would a woodchuck chuck if a 885 00:38:44.700 --> 00:38:46.380 woodchuck could chuck wood how much wood 886 00:38:46.380 --> 00:38:47.700 would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck 887 00:38:47.700 --> 00:38:49.020 could chuck wood and then there's a 888 00:38:49.020 --> 00:38:51.060 common response to that which is it 889 00:38:51.060 --> 00:38:52.020 would chuck all the wood that a 890 00:38:52.020 --> 00:38:53.160 woodchuck could if a woodchuck could 891 00:38:53.160 --> 00:38:54.839 chuck wood we definitely talked about 892 00:38:54.839 --> 00:38:57.119 this one in that English topics episode 893 00:38:57.119 --> 00:38:59.520 we did about tongue twisters lesser 894 00:38:59.520

probably what somebody does like they're 954 00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:16.260 bored at their job and they just think 955 00:41:16.260 --> 00:41:17.440 of these sorts of things 956 00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:29.219 [Music] 957 00:41:29.219 --> 00:41:31.380 hi everybody my name is Alicia welcome 958 00:41:31.380 --> 00:41:33.660 back to top words today we're going to 959 00:41:33.660 --> 00:41:36.599 talk about 10 ways to stop translating 960 00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:41.099 in your head let's get started identify 961 00:41:41.099 --> 00:41:44.040 objects around you in English the first 962 00:41:44.040 --> 00:41:46.560 way to stop translating in your head is 963 00:41:46.560 --> 00:41:49.739 to identify the objects around you in 964 00:41:49.739 --> 00:41:51.300 your target language so if you're 965 00:41:51.300 --> 00:41:53.579 studying English that means you look at 966 00:41:53.579 --> 00:41:55.739 the objects around the room look at the 967 00:41:55.739 --> 00:41:58.739 things in your life don't think of them 968 00:41:58.739 --> 00:42:01.260 in your native language first think of 969 00:42:01.260 --> 00:42:04.020 them in your target language first so if 970 00:42:04.020 --> 00:42:05.700 I look around the room I see a computer 971 00:42:05.700 --> 00:42:08.280 I shouldn't think my native language 972 00:42:08.280 --> 00:42:10.440 word I should think my target language 973 00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:13.079 word so start with the items and the 974 00:42:13.079 --> 00:42:16.140 situations in your everyday life if I 975 00:42:16.140 --> 00:42:18.060 say computer in English maybe I should 976 00:42:18.060 --> 00:42:21.119 say computer in Japanese I should say 977 00:42:21.119 --> 00:42:23.820 not I don't know water in English I 978 00:42:23.820 --> 00:42:27.060 should say omizu in Japanese so start 979 00:42:27.060 --> 00:42:29.820 associating the words in your target 980 00:42:29.820 --> 00:42:33.060 language with your everyday life now so 981 00:42:33.060 --> 00:42:35.099 if you're studying English that means 982 00:42:35.099 --> 00:42:37.680 start getting familiar with the things 983 00:42:37.680 --> 00:42:40.619 in your everyday life in English 984 00:42:40.619 --> 00:42:42.900 repeat phrases you hear native speakers 985 00:42:42.900 --> 00:42:46.140 use tip number two is to repeat the 986 00:42:46.140 --> 00:42:48.119 phrases that you hear native speakers 987 00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:50.940 use so if you're watching this channel 988 00:42:50.940 --> 00:42:54.480 for example or you're watching a TV show 989 00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:58.020 or a movie listen for the way that 990 00:42:58.020 --> 00:43:00.839 native speakers make those phrases if 991 00:43:00.839 --> 00:43:02.760 you hear a phrase you have never heard 992 00:43:02.760 --> 00:43:04.980 before or you hear an interesting 993 00:43:04.980 --> 00:43:08.219 combination of words try to repeat them 994 00:43:08.219 --> 00:43:11.460 yourself don't just listen try to say 995 00:43:11.460 --> 00:43:13.380 them yourself if you're in a public 996 00:43:13.380 --> 00:43:15.359 space and it's difficult for you to do 997 00:43:15.359 --> 00:43:18.000 that fine practice in a place where you 998 00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:20.040 feel more comfortable maybe if you have 999 00:43:20.040 --> 00:43:22.319 some private space to practice just 1000 00:43:22.319 --> 00:43:24.420 repeat them get your mouth used to 1001 00:43:24.420 --> 00:43:26.339 saying the words the way that the 1002 00:43:26.339 --> 00:43:29.339 speakers the native speakers do so if 1003 00:43:29.339 --> 00:43:31.680 you never actually say words if you're 1004 00:43:31.680 --> 00:43:34.200 only taking in if you're only listening 1005 00:43:34.200 --> 00:43:36.359 and you're not actually producing the 1006 00:43:36.359 --> 00:43:39.239 language it's it's kind of hard to to 1007 00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:41.339 practice and to 1008 00:43:41.339 --> 00:43:43.560 um to really hone your pronunciation to 1009 00:43:43.560 --> 00:43:46.260 improve your pronunciation so when you 1010 00:43:46.260 --> 00:43:48.599 listen to native speakers try to repeat 1011 00:43:48.599 --> 00:43:51.119 after them so for example if you're 1012 00:43:51.119 --> 00:43:53.160 studying English you can try to repeat 1013 00:43:53.160 --> 00:43:55.560 after this video you can repeat after 1014 00:43:55.560 --> 00:43:58.260 the things I'm saying because maybe I'm 1015 00:43:58.260 --> 00:44:00.900 using an expression or I'm using a 1016 00:44:00.900 --> 00:44:03.599 certain series of vocabulary words 1017 00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:06.119 together the way a native speaker would 1018 00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:09.540 and it's maybe a good idea to try to 1019 00:44:09.540 --> 00:44:11.400 practice the ways that native speakers 1020 00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:13.560 put their words together so try to 1021 00:44:13.560 --> 00:44:16.560 repeat after native speakers especially 1022 00:44:16.560 --> 00:44:18.839 when you're looking at media and you can 1023 00:44:18.839 --> 00:44:20.339 do this when you're reading books too 1024 00:44:20.339 --> 00:44:23.160 you can try to read out read out loud 1025 00:44:23.160 --> 00:44:25.319 interesting lines of books that you find 1026 00:44:25.319 --> 00:44:26.760 or something that may be as difficult 1027 00:44:26.760 --> 00:44:29.760 for you very nice practice tip make a 1028 00:44:29.760 --> 00:44:31.859 situation where you can't escape into 1029 00:44:31.859 --> 00:44:34.319 your native language make a situation 1030 00:44:34.319 --> 00:44:36.180 where you can't escape into your native 1031 00:44:36.180 --> 00:44:38.819 language essentially means immerse 1032 00:44:38.819 --> 00:44:41.160 yourself of course going to the that 1033 00:44:41.160 --> 00:44:43.980 country are going to a place where you 1034 00:44:43.980 --> 00:44:46.440 can speak only that language is very 1035 00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:48.239 difficult for some of you totally 1036 00:44:48.239 --> 00:44:51.599 understand but if in your life you can 1037 00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:54.239 create a situation in your library in 1038 00:44:54.239 --> 00:44:57.239 your room in your house somewhere for 1039 00:44:57.239 --> 00:44:59.640 just an hour or I don't know maybe a day 1040 00:44:59.640 --> 00:45:01.140 I don't know what your schedule is like 1041 00:45:01.140 --> 00:45:03.900 but if you can create a situation or 1042 00:45:03.900 --> 00:45:06.480 create an environment where you have no 1043 00:45:06.480 --> 00:45:10.020 choice but to use that language and you 1044 00:45:10.020 --> 00:45:13.440 cannot Escape meaning you cannot go back 1045 00:45:13.440 --> 00:45:15.960 to using your native language as a 1046 00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:17.819 crutch you can't use the native language 1047 00:45:17.819 --> 00:45:21.480 at all it forces you to use the language 1048 00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:24.060 that you're studying so of course if you 1049 00:45:24.060 --> 00:45:26.040 are lucky enough to live in the country 1050 00:45:26.040 --> 00:45:28.859 or to live in a place where people speak 1051 00:45:28.859 --> 00:45:31.020 the language you're studying great but 1052 00:45:31.020 --> 00:45:33.239 you have to go out and interact with 1053 00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:35.400 people you have to put yourself in a 1054 00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:37.920 place where you have no choice but to 1055 00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:39.780 speak it's very hard and it's very scary 1056 00:45:39.780 --> 00:45:42.420 and it's very embarrassing at first but 1057 00:45:42.420 --> 00:45:45.180 if you take time to find places and to 1058 00:45:45.180 --> 00:45:47.040 make environments that are comfortable 1059 00:45:47.040 --> 00:45:48.839 for you where you feel comfortable 1060 00:45:48.839 --> 00:45:51.060 making mistakes and asking questions 1061 00:45:51.060 --> 00:45:53.400 it's very valuable for your learning 1062 00:45:53.400 --> 00:45:55.079 process this is actually something that 1063 00:45:55.079 --> 00:45:57.420 I did totally I totally did this my 1064 00:45:57.420 --> 00:46:00.239 Japanese wasn't very good for a long 1065 00:46:00.239 --> 00:46:02.460 time but then I started making friends 1066 00:46:02.460 --> 00:46:05.819 who could not speak English actually I 1067 00:46:05.819 --> 00:46:07.440 just did this through finding Hobbies 1068 00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:10.140 there was a hobby that I had I joined a 1069 00:46:10.140 --> 00:46:12.000 group I joined actually a school to 1070 00:46:12.000 --> 00:46:13.940 where I could learn how to do that Hobby 1071 00:46:13.940 --> 00:46:16.680 and everything was taught only in 1072 00:46:16.680 --> 00:46:19.440 Japanese and the people in my class only 1073 00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:21.839 spoke Japanese mostly and then maybe we 1074 00:46:21.839 --> 00:46:24.420 would go out for drinks and food late at 1075 00:46:24.420 --> 00:46:25.980 night or on the weekends and everybody 1076 00:46:25.980 --> 00:46:29.040 spoke only Japanese and if I couldn't 1077 00:46:29.040 --> 00:46:32.099 communicate even simply in Japanese I 1078 00:46:32.099 --> 00:46:34.020 had no hope of keeping that friendship 1079 00:46:34.020 --> 00:46:36.540 together so it forced me to study it 1080 00:46:36.540 --> 00:46:38.460 forced me to think about the words they 1081 00:46:38.460 --> 00:46:41.339 were using and to try to learn those 1082 00:46:41.339 --> 00:46:43.680 words those patterns as well as how to 1083 00:46:43.680 --> 00:46:45.839 produce them naturally myself so I was 1084 00:46:45.839 --> 00:46:48.000 learning the vocabulary words the people 1085 00:46:48.000 --> 00:46:50.700 around me were using and learning how to 1086 00:46:50.700 --> 00:46:52.739 apply them on my own that was only 1087 00:46:52.739 --> 00:46:55.260 possible because I had no Escape in 1088 00:46:55.260 --> 00:46:58.440 those situations so try to do that even 1089 00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:00.180 if you can do it yourself in your house 1090 00:47:00.180 --> 00:47:02.339 it's super helpful I think 1091 00:47:02.339 --> 00:47:04.619 watch TV and movies in your target 1092 00:47:04.619 --> 00:47:07.619 language without subtitles tip number 1093 00:47:07.619 --> 00:47:10.380 four is to watch TV and movies in your 1094 00:47:10.380 --> 00:47:12.900 target language without subtitles 1095 00:47:12.900 --> 00:47:15.300 without subtitles so I think that 1096 00:47:15.300 --> 00:47:18.660 watching uh with subtitles can be very 1097 00:47:18.660 --> 00:47:19.819 beneficial 1098 00:47:19.819 --> 00:47:23.280 so if I'm watching something or if you 1099 00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:25.020 want to watch something with subtitles 1100 00:47:25.020 --> 00:47:28.500 on great but I sometimes find that I can 1101 00:47:28.500 --> 00:47:30.960 in my case I I think too much about 1102 00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:33.480 reading the subtitles and I forget to 1103 00:47:33.480 --> 00:47:36.239 listen so maybe if you've seen a movie 1104 00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:39.900 in your target language a few times with 1105 00:47:39.900 --> 00:47:42.480 the subtitles on try turning the 1106 00:47:42.480 --> 00:47:45.660 subtitles off and think about the like 1107 00:47:45.660 --> 00:47:47.339 character's body language the words 1108 00:47:47.339 --> 00:47:49.920 they're using you can always look that 1109 00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:51.900 up later look up the you know the words 1110 00:47:51.900 --> 00:47:54.119 you don't know in a dictionary but try 1111 00:47:54.119 --> 00:47:56.099 to do it where you're focusing 1112 00:47:56.099 --> 00:47:59.040 completely on the way that people are 1113 00:47:59.040 --> 00:48:01.500 using their words try not to use the 1114 00:48:01.500 --> 00:48:04.380 subtitles so kind of play around with it 1115 00:48:04.380 --> 00:48:05.819 a little bit if there's a word that's 1116 00:48:05.819 --> 00:48:07.800 difficult for you to here you can 1117 00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:10.260 actually turn on the subtitles in like 1118 00:48:10.260 --> 00:48:12.900 the in the native language of the movie 1119 00:48:12.900 --> 00:48:15.000 as well that's something that I've done 1120 00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:17.400 like if uh like if I wanted to study 1121 00:48:17.400 --> 00:48:19.619 Japanese it's very useful when the 1122 00:48:19.619 --> 00:48:22.739 actual words spoken in Japanese appear 1123 00:48:22.739 --> 00:48:25.079 on the screen sometimes it's easier for 1124 00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:28.380 me to catch a word if I see it visually 1125 00:48:28.380 --> 00:48:31.140 and I hear it at the same time so 1126 00:48:31.140 --> 00:48:34.680 another way to kind of explore how you 1127 00:48:34.680 --> 00:48:37.319 can use TV and movies is to actually 1128 00:48:37.319 --> 00:48:40.619 turn on the closed captions like the the 1129 00:48:40.619 --> 00:48:43.079 um the words on the screen in the native 1130 00:48:43.079 --> 00:48:45.960 language of the movie so uh so this is 1131 00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:48.060 sort of two points in one so one watch 1132 00:48:48.060 --> 00:48:49.920 movies without subtitles meaning 1133 00:48:49.920 --> 00:48:52.440 subtitles in your native language in 1134 00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:55.680 hint too is to watch movies with closed 1135 00:48:55.680 --> 00:48:57.839 captioning on but the closed captioning 1136 00:48:57.839 --> 00:49:00.180 is in your target language not in your 1137 00:49:00.180 --> 00:49:02.099 native language so you can try those two 1138 00:49:02.099 --> 00:49:05.099 things with TV and with movies 1139 00:49:05.099 --> 00:49:08.280 don't bring a dictionary to your lesson 1140 00:49:08.280 --> 00:49:10.440 number five is don't bring a dictionary 1141 00:49:10.440 --> 00:49:13.739 to your lesson okay so give me a second 1142 00:49:13.739 --> 00:49:16.200 here so I understand the dictionaries it 1143 00:49:16.200 --> 00:49:18.060 was especially electronic dictionaries 1144 00:49:18.060 --> 00:49:20.099 we have them on our phones now are very 1145 00:49:20.099 --> 00:49:21.900 very convenient 1146 00:49:21.900 --> 00:49:23.579 um of course it's important to use them 1147 00:49:23.579 --> 00:49:25.440 and it's they're a great resource to 1148 00:49:25.440 --> 00:49:28.440 have however one thing that really 1149 00:49:28.440 --> 00:49:32.339 bothers me and that I think is 1150 00:49:32.339 --> 00:49:34.560 detrimental it's not helpful for 1151 00:49:34.560 --> 00:49:37.500 students is when students are in a 1152 00:49:37.500 --> 00:49:38.819 lesson and they're practicing 1153 00:49:38.819 --> 00:49:41.819 conversation and they reach a point in 1154 00:49:41.819 --> 00:49:43.859 the conversation where they don't know 1155 00:49:43.859 --> 00:49:45.780 the word they want to use they know it 1156 00:49:45.780 --> 00:49:47.760 in their native language and they don't 1157 00:49:47.760 --> 00:49:49.500 know how to say it in their target 1158 00:49:49.500 --> 00:49:51.719 language they pull out their dictionary 1159 00:49:51.719 --> 00:49:54.300 they say to this the person listening to 1160 00:49:54.300 --> 00:49:56.339 them their practice partner in their 1161 00:49:56.339 --> 00:49:58.260 lesson where they have a limited period 1162 00:49:58.260 --> 00:50:01.079 of time just a moment and then they look 1163 00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:03.540 it up on their phone it takes a few 1164 00:50:03.540 --> 00:50:05.819 seconds the flow of the conversation 1165 00:50:05.819 --> 00:50:09.359 stops and then they say a word and I was 1166 00:50:09.359 --> 00:50:12.780 like whoa no that's not you don't have 1167 00:50:12.780 --> 00:50:15.420 that ability you don't have the ability 1168 00:50:15.420 --> 00:50:17.700 to do that in a conversation with a 1169 00:50:17.700 --> 00:50:20.099 native speaker most people like if you 1170 00:50:20.099 --> 00:50:21.780 go to a bank and try to open a bank 1171 00:50:21.780 --> 00:50:23.339 account are you really going to pull out 1172 00:50:23.339 --> 00:50:26.300 your dictionary and sit there and try to 1173 00:50:26.300 --> 00:50:28.560 communicate you know just a moment just 1174 00:50:28.560 --> 00:50:31.079 a moment as you look up each word you 1175 00:50:31.079 --> 00:50:33.719 don't know no or if you do that's not a 1176 00:50:33.719 --> 00:50:37.680 real conversation so instead try using a 1177 00:50:37.680 --> 00:50:40.200 different strategy by that I mean if you 1178 00:50:40.200 --> 00:50:42.000 find a word you don't know in 1179 00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:45.119 conversation explain the word to your 1180 00:50:45.119 --> 00:50:47.520 conversation partner maybe they know the 1181 00:50:47.520 --> 00:50:49.020 word if you're speaking with a native 1182 00:50:49.020 --> 00:50:50.880 speaker this is a chance for them to 1183 00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:53.400 teach you a word I find that when people 1184 00:50:53.400 --> 00:50:56.280 take the time to teach me a word I 1185 00:50:56.280 --> 00:50:58.619 remember the word much better than just 1186 00:50:58.619 --> 00:51:01.319 looking it up on my dictionary so try to 1187 00:51:01.319 --> 00:51:03.180 resist maybe you can bring a dictionary 1188 00:51:03.180 --> 00:51:05.520 to your lesson but don't use it or try 1189 00:51:05.520 --> 00:51:07.800 not to use it in your conversation 1190 00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:10.200 practice this it's just it destroys the 1191 00:51:10.200 --> 00:51:12.480 flow of a conversation so instead 1192 00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:15.119 practice the skill of describing the 1193 00:51:15.119 --> 00:51:17.700 vocabulary word you want to use and 1194 00:51:17.700 --> 00:51:20.280 learn how to ask the meaning of a word 1195 00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:23.040 or learn how to ask for a vocabulary 1196 00:51:23.040 --> 00:51:25.559 word from your partner so you can use an 1197 00:51:25.559 --> 00:51:27.540 expression like ah what's the word that 1198 00:51:27.540 --> 00:51:29.880 means blah blah blah or 1199 00:51:29.880 --> 00:51:31.680 um you know it's this thing that does 1200 00:51:31.680 --> 00:51:33.599 this and this and this so this is an 1201 00:51:33.599 --> 00:51:35.460 opportunity for you to describe 1202 00:51:35.460 --> 00:51:38.160 characteristics of something or find a 1203 00:51:38.160 --> 00:51:40.140 different way you can use your body 1204 00:51:40.140 --> 00:51:42.900 language you can use whatever you have a 1205 00:51:42.900 --> 00:51:45.480 lot of tools but try not to use a 1206 00:51:45.480 --> 00:51:47.160 dictionary in a conversation because 1207 00:51:47.160 --> 00:51:49.200 it's not realistic 1208 00:51:49.200 --> 00:51:52.319 trained responses to common questions 1209 00:51:52.319 --> 00:51:54.599 number six is a quick one I think number 1210 00:51:54.599 --> 00:51:57.059 six hint number six I have is just to 1211 00:51:57.059 --> 00:51:59.160 train responses to common questions 1212 00:51:59.160 --> 00:52:01.800 train responses to common questions so 1213 00:52:01.800 --> 00:52:04.319 for example a very common question in 1214 00:52:04.319 --> 00:52:06.599 English is hey how are you you should 1215 00:52:06.599 --> 00:52:08.760 know how to answer this question just 1216 00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:11.219 have a default response hey how are you 1217 00:52:11.219 --> 00:52:15.180 I'm good like if it takes you a long 1218 00:52:15.180 --> 00:52:17.819 time to answer the question hey how are 1219 00:52:17.819 --> 00:52:20.760 you you need to practice I think that's 1220 00:52:20.760 --> 00:52:23.520 a pretty good uh a pretty good indicator 1221 00:52:23.520 --> 00:52:26.219 so for example sometimes I ask students 1222 00:52:26.219 --> 00:52:28.619 a question like that they they haven't 1223 00:52:28.619 --> 00:52:32.040 quite gotten the idea of how to respond 1224 00:52:32.040 --> 00:52:34.680 just yet they they're not so quick at 1225 00:52:34.680 --> 00:52:37.140 responding I say uh hey how are you and 1226 00:52:37.140 --> 00:52:38.280 they say yes 1227 00:52:38.280 --> 00:52:41.579 and then they think and they go I'm uh 1228 00:52:41.579 --> 00:52:44.579 I'm a good and it's like that's a very 1229 00:52:44.579 --> 00:52:47.460 common question so think about just a 1230 00:52:47.460 --> 00:52:49.440 default response that you can spit out 1231 00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:51.719 that you can quickly say if it's how was 1232 00:52:51.719 --> 00:52:54.480 your weekend or hey what's up or what do 1233 00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:56.339 you want to do for dinner tonight think 1234 00:52:56.339 --> 00:52:59.700 about like just a handful meaning just a 1235 00:52:59.700 --> 00:53:02.520 few responses to those questions and 1236 00:53:02.520 --> 00:53:05.099 train them quickly just how are you I'm 1237 00:53:05.099 --> 00:53:07.260 good how are you I'm okay how are you 1238 00:53:07.260 --> 00:53:10.859 not bad there's three so it's just 1239 00:53:10.859 --> 00:53:13.260 training responses to those questions 1240 00:53:13.260 --> 00:53:16.500 there's no reason to be surprised by a 1241 00:53:16.500 --> 00:53:18.900 question like how are you like that's a 1242 00:53:18.900 --> 00:53:21.119 very common question so for those common 1243 00:53:21.119 --> 00:53:23.880 questions train responses to that we've 1244 00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:25.920 got a bunch of videos especially 1245 00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:28.200 beginner level videos for some example 1246 00:53:28.200 --> 00:53:31.859 responses you can do so don't get stuck 1247 00:53:31.859 --> 00:53:33.960 with these little questions just train a 1248 00:53:33.960 --> 00:53:36.000 few responses practice a few responses 1249 00:53:36.000 --> 00:53:37.920 till they feel natural to you it'll save 1250 00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:39.719 you time and it'll help the person 1251 00:53:39.719 --> 00:53:41.819 asking the question to to move forward 1252 00:53:41.819 --> 00:53:44.520 in the conversation yay 1253 00:53:44.520 --> 00:53:46.859 study with materials that don't provide 1254 00:53:46.859 --> 00:53:48.540 a translation 1255 00:53:48.540 --> 00:53:51.480 the next tip is to study with materials 1256 00:53:51.480 --> 00:53:54.359 that don't provide a translation so by 1257 00:53:54.359 --> 00:53:56.819 this I mean if you're using worksheets 1258 00:53:56.819 --> 00:53:59.880 and or some kind of textbook or whatever 1259 00:53:59.880 --> 00:54:03.420 and it has your target language the 1260 00:54:03.420 --> 00:54:05.700 language you're studying and it has your 1261 00:54:05.700 --> 00:54:08.040 native language next to it while this 1262 00:54:08.040 --> 00:54:11.520 can be useful I feel that if you can 1263 00:54:11.520 --> 00:54:14.700 studying your materials only in your 1264 00:54:14.700 --> 00:54:16.920 target language and then simplified 1265 00:54:16.920 --> 00:54:19.920 explanations for more detailed points 1266 00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:22.680 also in your target language can be a 1267 00:54:22.680 --> 00:54:25.500 little bit better so I don't want to say 1268 00:54:25.500 --> 00:54:27.420 like you should only study things in 1269 00:54:27.420 --> 00:54:29.280 your target language and nothing from 1270 00:54:29.280 --> 00:54:30.900 your native language because of course 1271 00:54:30.900 --> 00:54:33.540 like it can be helpful sometimes to look 1272 00:54:33.540 --> 00:54:35.579 up a word or to understand a grammar 1273 00:54:35.579 --> 00:54:38.219 point in your native language but where 1274 00:54:38.219 --> 00:54:40.800 possible if you can find something that 1275 00:54:40.800 --> 00:54:43.980 provides simplified explanations in your 1276 00:54:43.980 --> 00:54:45.660 target language it can be really really 1277 00:54:45.660 --> 00:54:47.880 helpful because again you're thinking 1278 00:54:47.880 --> 00:54:49.859 you're learning to think on like a 1279 00:54:49.859 --> 00:54:52.800 simpler on a more basic level about the 1280 00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:54.960 language you're studying in the language 1281 00:54:54.960 --> 00:54:56.819 that you're studying so this can be 1282 00:54:56.819 --> 00:54:58.680 really really good so finding some 1283 00:54:58.680 --> 00:55:01.020 materials to use where there's no 1284 00:55:01.020 --> 00:55:04.140 translation maybe you can practice 1285 00:55:04.140 --> 00:55:06.000 um of course with with books and with 1286 00:55:06.000 --> 00:55:08.400 written materials but also with like 1287 00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:11.280 video materials as well so there are a 1288 00:55:11.280 --> 00:55:14.579 variety of different ways that you can 1289 00:55:14.579 --> 00:55:15.180 um 1290 00:55:15.180 --> 00:55:18.140 find materials in your target language 1291 00:55:18.140 --> 00:55:21.420 like in video and TV so some things to 1292 00:55:21.420 --> 00:55:23.219 think about there are the level of 1293 00:55:23.219 --> 00:55:25.680 vocabulary words people are using in the 1294 00:55:25.680 --> 00:55:28.200 media content you're watching who the 1295 00:55:28.200 --> 00:55:30.420 media content is intended for children 1296 00:55:30.420 --> 00:55:33.540 young adults adults the speed at which 1297 00:55:33.540 --> 00:55:35.400 the speaker is talking so like I have 1298 00:55:35.400 --> 00:55:37.559 the ability to change the level of 1299 00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:41.099 difficulty of videos based on the rate 1300 00:55:41.099 --> 00:55:43.380 of speech the vocabulary words that I 1301 00:55:43.380 --> 00:55:45.359 use and how many like idioms and things 1302 00:55:45.359 --> 00:55:47.339 I use so I could make a video very 1303 00:55:47.339 --> 00:55:48.960 difficult we could make a very like a 1304 00:55:48.960 --> 00:55:52.079 very difficult video series by leveling 1305 00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:54.599 up our vocabulary user by speaking very 1306 00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:57.599 quickly or as you might see in like our 1307 00:55:57.599 --> 00:56:00.420 English in three minutes series we can 1308 00:56:00.420 --> 00:56:03.180 also use very simple vocabulary and 1309 00:56:03.180 --> 00:56:05.280 speak at a low rate of speech so maybe 1310 00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:07.380 right now this is a very intermediate 1311 00:56:07.380 --> 00:56:09.780 level video so please think about that 1312 00:56:09.780 --> 00:56:12.900 so not just for written materials but 1313 00:56:12.900 --> 00:56:15.059 also for your audio and visual materials 1314 00:56:15.059 --> 00:56:18.059 think about who your audience is the 1315 00:56:18.059 --> 00:56:20.460 level of the material and so on it can 1316 00:56:20.460 --> 00:56:23.099 be really fun and it can be helpful to 1317 00:56:23.099 --> 00:56:25.859 think about your your target language in 1318 00:56:25.859 --> 00:56:27.300 your target language all right we're 1319 00:56:27.300 --> 00:56:28.859 almost done 1320 00:56:28.859 --> 00:56:31.140 study phrases in addition to single 1321 00:56:31.140 --> 00:56:32.520 vocabulary 1322 00:56:32.520 --> 00:56:35.400 the next tip is study phrases in 1323 00:56:35.400 --> 00:56:37.980 addition to single vocabulary words so 1324 00:56:37.980 --> 00:56:40.380 yes of course vocabulary is important 1325 00:56:40.380 --> 00:56:43.800 but I find it personally very very 1326 00:56:43.800 --> 00:56:47.339 useful to look at how a vocabulary word 1327 00:56:47.339 --> 00:56:51.059 is used in a phrase because sometimes 1328 00:56:51.059 --> 00:56:53.880 using it in a phrase helps you 1329 00:56:53.880 --> 00:56:56.520 understand the Nuance of that vocabulary 1330 00:56:56.520 --> 00:56:59.819 word really really well so if I like a 1331 00:56:59.819 --> 00:57:01.819 word like crazy for example in English 1332 00:57:01.819 --> 00:57:04.380 depending on the situation where the 1333 00:57:04.380 --> 00:57:06.540 word crazy is used it could mean 1334 00:57:06.540 --> 00:57:08.940 something different it could mean like a 1335 00:57:08.940 --> 00:57:11.640 person who is mentally confused or mixed 1336 00:57:11.640 --> 00:57:13.260 up it could also mean something really 1337 00:57:13.260 --> 00:57:15.839 good it can mean something really bad so 1338 00:57:15.839 --> 00:57:18.660 if we look only at the word crazy it's 1339 00:57:18.660 --> 00:57:21.300 quite difficult to understand really the 1340 00:57:21.300 --> 00:57:23.640 meaning of the word but if you look at 1341 00:57:23.640 --> 00:57:26.339 the way the word is used in a phrase you 1342 00:57:26.339 --> 00:57:28.800 can get a lot more information so take a 1343 00:57:28.800 --> 00:57:30.839 look at the way people use words in 1344 00:57:30.839 --> 00:57:34.079 phrases not just single vocabulary words 1345 00:57:34.079 --> 00:57:36.180 you can learn a lot more that way I 1346 00:57:36.180 --> 00:57:37.200 think 1347 00:57:37.200 --> 00:57:39.240 do your daily activities in English 1348 00:57:39.240 --> 00:57:40.800 where possible 1349 00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:42.780 the next tip is to do your daily 1350 00:57:42.780 --> 00:57:45.660 activities in your target language so if 1351 00:57:45.660 --> 00:57:47.220 you're studying English that means try 1352 00:57:47.220 --> 00:57:49.380 to do some daily activities in English 1353 00:57:49.380 --> 00:57:51.960 if possible so this can be very very 1354 00:57:51.960 --> 00:57:54.119 boring stuff but just think about it 1355 00:57:54.119 --> 00:57:56.339 when you're doing the activity so like 1356 00:57:56.339 --> 00:57:58.579 right now I'm filming a video for 1357 00:57:58.579 --> 00:58:01.680 englishclass101.com or I'm going to work 1358 00:58:01.680 --> 00:58:03.839 I'm cooking breakfast I'm doing the 1359 00:58:03.839 --> 00:58:06.240 laundry what do I have to do tomorrow so 1360 00:58:06.240 --> 00:58:09.660 try thinking about your everyday life in 1361 00:58:09.660 --> 00:58:12.000 English if you're studying English try 1362 00:58:12.000 --> 00:58:14.040 thinking about your everyday activities 1363 00:58:14.040 --> 00:58:16.260 the people that you meet what are you 1364 00:58:16.260 --> 00:58:18.240 doing so this is a way to help you 1365 00:58:18.240 --> 00:58:20.339 practice your verbs so if you don't know 1366 00:58:20.339 --> 00:58:22.079 if you're I don't know you're doing 1367 00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:23.700 something at work and you're like oh my 1368 00:58:23.700 --> 00:58:25.680 gosh how do I explain the what's the 1369 00:58:25.680 --> 00:58:28.859 verb for you know a picture like I want 1370 00:58:28.859 --> 00:58:30.780 to blah blah blah a picture what's the 1371 00:58:30.780 --> 00:58:33.180 word you can check a dictionary at that 1372 00:58:33.180 --> 00:58:35.700 point and go ah it's draw I need to use 1373 00:58:35.700 --> 00:58:38.760 the verb draw for draw a picture so you 1374 00:58:38.760 --> 00:58:40.740 can find these little gaps in your 1375 00:58:40.740 --> 00:58:43.079 everyday life these little gaps in your 1376 00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:45.780 knowledge if you think about your 1377 00:58:45.780 --> 00:58:47.520 everyday activities in your target 1378 00:58:47.520 --> 00:58:49.260 language if you don't think about it in 1379 00:58:49.260 --> 00:58:50.940 your target language you might not 1380 00:58:50.940 --> 00:58:53.220 realize you have vocabulary gaps or 1381 00:58:53.220 --> 00:58:55.200 phrase gaps here and there so this is a 1382 00:58:55.200 --> 00:58:56.880 really good and kind of funny actually 1383 00:58:56.880 --> 00:59:00.299 way to study use a Learner's Dictionary 1384 00:59:00.299 --> 00:59:03.900 for new words the last tip is to use a 1385 00:59:03.900 --> 00:59:06.480 Learner's Dictionary for new words so in 1386 00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:08.460 English there are Learners dictionaries 1387 00:59:08.460 --> 00:59:11.099 available in English so my favorite my 1388 00:59:11.099 --> 00:59:12.740 personal favorite is Merriam-Webster 1389 00:59:12.740 --> 00:59:15.299 Merriam-Webster is a fantastic 1390 00:59:15.299 --> 00:59:17.280 dictionary resource they're so 1391 00:59:17.280 --> 00:59:19.500 interesting and they have tons of like 1392 00:59:19.500 --> 00:59:22.319 historical information I really do just 1393 00:59:22.319 --> 00:59:24.480 sit and like read things on the 1394 00:59:24.480 --> 00:59:28.559 dictionary page lately it's true but 1395 00:59:28.559 --> 00:59:29.940 um of course there's a definition 1396 00:59:29.940 --> 00:59:31.920 there's a meaning for Words there are 1397 00:59:31.920 --> 00:59:33.859 example sentences for words but 1398 00:59:33.859 --> 00:59:36.599 Merriam-Webster also has what's called a 1399 00:59:36.599 --> 00:59:38.700 Learner's Dictionary if you find a word 1400 00:59:38.700 --> 00:59:40.440 that you don't recognize you can check 1401 00:59:40.440 --> 00:59:43.140 it uh in a dictionary in a Learner's 1402 00:59:43.140 --> 00:59:45.720 Dictionary and it gives you a simplified 1403 00:59:45.720 --> 00:59:48.540 a simple explanation in simple English 1404 00:59:48.540 --> 00:59:51.900 of that word so instead of checking it 1405 00:59:51.900 --> 00:59:53.880 in your native language you can check it 1406 00:59:53.880 --> 00:59:56.280 in your target language so again this 1407 00:59:56.280 --> 00:59:59.640 helps you to understand the word that 1408 00:59:59.640 --> 01:00:02.339 you are that you're focused on but you 1409 01:00:02.339 --> 01:00:05.160 understand it from the language you're 1410 01:00:05.160 --> 01:00:06.780 studying not from your native language 1411 01:00:06.780 --> 01:00:09.119 so using a Learner's Dictionary can be 1412 01:00:09.119 --> 01:00:11.579 really really useful as well all right 1413 01:00:11.579 --> 01:00:14.579 so those are 10 tips those are 10 tips 1414 01:00:14.579 --> 01:00:16.920 to help you stop translating in your 1415 01:00:16.920 --> 01:00:19.380 head I know it's very difficult but it's 1416 01:00:19.380 --> 01:00:21.480 it takes time and it takes practice and 1417 01:00:21.480 -->

the company and its goals 1501 01:03:58.319 --> 01:04:00.299 why should we hire you 1502 01:04:00.299 --> 01:04:02.640 the next interview question is why 1503 01:04:02.640 --> 01:04:05.040 should we hire you why should we hire 1504 01:04:05.040 --> 01:04:08.220 you so this is your opportunity to 1505 01:04:08.220 --> 01:04:11.640 explain why you feel you are the best 1506 01:04:11.640 --> 01:04:14.520 candidate for the job so if you have any 1507 01:04:14.520 --> 01:04:16.859 special qualifications you have 1508 01:04:16.859 --> 01:04:18.900 certifications you have specific 1509 01:04:18.900 --> 01:04:21.480 experience you have a specific goal in 1510 01:04:21.480 --> 01:04:24.000 mind this is the kind of question you 1511 01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:26.760 can share that information in response 1512 01:04:26.760 --> 01:04:30.059 to why should we hire you because I can 1513 01:04:30.059 --> 01:04:32.579 speak six different languages and I know 1514 01:04:32.579 --> 01:04:36.180 how to create a website in 10 minutes I 1515 01:04:36.180 --> 01:04:39.059 don't know so if you have some kind of 1516 01:04:39.059 --> 01:04:41.280 special qualifications you can share 1517 01:04:41.280 --> 01:04:43.859 those qualifications in response to this 1518 01:04:43.859 --> 01:04:46.380 question in another example sentence I'm 1519 01:04:46.380 --> 01:04:48.660 a goal-oriented person who likes to work 1520 01:04:48.660 --> 01:04:50.700 at a fast pace 1521 01:04:50.700 --> 01:04:52.680 what do you consider your strengths and 1522 01:04:52.680 --> 01:04:53.819 weaknesses 1523 01:04:53.819 --> 01:04:55.980 the next question is a common question 1524 01:04:55.980 --> 01:04:59.040 what do you consider your strengths and 1525 01:04:59.040 --> 01:05:01.260 weaknesses what do you consider your 1526 01:05:01.260 --> 01:05:03.660 strengths and weaknesses or what are 1527 01:05:03.660 --> 01:05:05.700 your strengths and weaknesses so 1528 01:05:05.700 --> 01:05:08.099 strengths means strong points things you 1529 01:05:08.099 --> 01:05:10.380 are good at weaknesses is your weak 1530 01:05:10.380 --> 01:05:12.299 points things you are not very good at 1531 01:05:12.299 --> 01:05:15.240 so you could you should be honest to a 1532 01:05:15.240 --> 01:05:17.940 degree but be careful so this should be 1533 01:05:17.940 --> 01:05:20.400 in a professional setting keep that in 1534 01:05:20.400 --> 01:05:22.799 mind it's a professional setting if you 1535 01:05:22.799 --> 01:05:24.540 want to talk about your weaknesses don't 1536 01:05:24.540 --> 01:05:27.119 say like uh I eat too much chocolate or 1537 01:05:27.119 --> 01:05:29.099 don't say like I love sleeping or 1538 01:05:29.099 --> 01:05:31.380 whatever talk about your professional 1539 01:05:31.380 --> 01:05:33.059 strengths and your professional 1540 01:05:33.059 --> 01:05:35.520 weaknesses and also with your weaknesses 1541 01:05:35.520 --> 01:05:37.619 it would be a good idea to talk about 1542 01:05:37.619 --> 01:05:40.980 how you improve those weaknesses or how 1543 01:05:40.980 --> 01:05:43.200 you work with your team members or work 1544 01:05:43.200 --> 01:05:47.339 in a company to try to reduce the effect 1545 01:05:47.339 --> 01:05:50.099 of those weaknesses so for example I'm 1546 01:05:50.099 --> 01:05:53.220 very detail-oriented but I often take on 1547 01:05:53.220 --> 01:05:55.799 too much at one time 1548 01:05:55.799 --> 01:05:57.839 um so like in my case that's the case 1549 01:05:57.839 --> 01:06:00.059 like I'm very detail oriented but I 1550 01:06:00.059 --> 01:06:02.700 often take on too much so do too many 1551 01:06:02.700 --> 01:06:05.640 things at one time so I could explain 1552 01:06:05.640 --> 01:06:09.000 okay so I'm very detail oriented but uh 1553 01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:11.339 if I'm trying to take on too much I try 1554 01:06:11.339 --> 01:06:13.799 maybe I say I communicate with my 1555 01:06:13.799 --> 01:06:15.720 co-workers about what should be 1556 01:06:15.720 --> 01:06:18.599 prioritized and that helps me organize 1557 01:06:18.599 --> 01:06:20.700 my time better so when you introduce 1558 01:06:20.700 --> 01:06:23.160 your weakness talk about the ways you 1559 01:06:23.160 --> 01:06:25.740 kind of you try to reduce the effect of 1560 01:06:25.740 --> 01:06:27.720 that weakness that can be one technique 1561 01:06:27.720 --> 01:06:29.579 so your good points and your bad points 1562 01:06:29.579 --> 01:06:30.839 in this question 1563 01:06:30.839 --> 01:06:33.119 tell me about a time when you overcame a 1564 01:06:33.119 --> 01:06:36.000 challenge at work some interviewers may 1565 01:06:36.000 --> 01:06:38.460 ask this question tell me about a time 1566 01:06:38.460 --> 01:06:40.980 when you overcame a challenge at work so 1567 01:06:40.980 --> 01:06:42.480 it's not really a question they're 1568 01:06:42.480 --> 01:06:45.000 asking you to tell a story so tell me 1569 01:06:45.000 --> 01:06:46.920 about a time when you overcame a 1570 01:06:46.920 --> 01:06:48.900 challenge at work so they want to hear 1571 01:06:48.900 --> 01:06:51.180 an example from your professional 1572 01:06:51.180 --> 01:06:53.940 experience about how you solved a 1573 01:06:53.940 --> 01:06:56.280 problem what did you do to solve a 1574 01:06:56.280 --> 01:06:59.099 problem at work they want to know what 1575 01:06:59.099 --> 01:07:01.319 kind of problem it was and how you 1576 01:07:01.319 --> 01:07:03.359 approach the problem and the result of 1577 01:07:03.359 --> 01:07:06.299 that problem so you could say for 1578 01:07:06.299 --> 01:07:08.700 example our company party was scheduled 1579 01:07:08.700 --> 01:07:11.339 for the day before Christmas but the 1580 01:07:11.339 --> 01:07:13.740 restaurant exploded and I had to find a 1581 01:07:13.740 --> 01:07:15.960 new place to have the party I don't know 1582 01:07:15.960 --> 01:07:19.200 that's not of course a crazy example but 1583 01:07:19.200 --> 01:07:22.319 giving your employer an idea of how you 1584 01:07:22.319 --> 01:07:24.180 solve problems and maybe the kind of 1585 01:07:24.180 --> 01:07:26.160 mental state you have when you solve the 1586 01:07:26.160 --> 01:07:28.440 problems can be helpful in making a 1587 01:07:28.440 --> 01:07:31.260 hiring decision so in an example when I 1588 01:07:31.260 --> 01:07:33.240 was having trouble communicating with a 1589 01:07:33.240 --> 01:07:35.940 client I reached out to a co-worker for 1590 01:07:35.940 --> 01:07:37.200 support 1591 01:07:37.200 --> 01:07:39.780 what are your career goals the next 1592 01:07:39.780 --> 01:07:42.539 question is what are your career goals 1593 01:07:42.539 --> 01:07:45.539 your career goals so not necessarily in 1594 01:07:45.539 --> 01:07:47.880 this company but in your career overall 1595 01:07:47.880 --> 01:07:50.640 in the interview it's probably a good 1596 01:07:50.640 --> 01:07:53.760 idea to include the company where you 1597 01:07:53.760 --> 01:07:55.920 are currently interviewing in your 1598 01:07:55.920 --> 01:07:59.280 career goals but keep in mind like you 1599 01:07:59.280 --> 01:08:02.160 should be explaining a goal or you 1600 01:08:02.160 --> 01:08:06.480 should be sharing a goal that is in line 1601 01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:09.480 with the company's work so if your goal 1602 01:08:09.480 --> 01:08:12.180 is to open a cupcake shop but you're 1603 01:08:12.180 --> 01:08:14.640 interviewing for like an I.T job where 1604 01:08:14.640 --> 01:08:17.359 you're going to be like I don't know 1605 01:08:17.359 --> 01:08:20.100 installing Windows 10 on people's 1606 01:08:20.100 --> 01:08:22.198 computers maybe this doesn't really 1607 01:08:22.198 --> 01:08:24.660 match so make sure that your career goal 1608 01:08:24.660 --> 01:08:26.339 and the job you're interviewing for 1609 01:08:26.339 --> 01:08:28.620 Align those two should be kind of 1610 01:08:28.620 --> 01:08:31.259 aligned it'll help your interviewer and 1611 01:08:31.259 --> 01:08:33.719 it will help you I think so in an 1612 01:08:33.719 --> 01:08:36.238 example sentence I want to create a 1613 01:08:36.238 --> 01:08:39.060 global advertising campaign strategy so 1614 01:08:39.060 --> 01:08:40.198 maybe you're interviewing for a 1615 01:08:40.198 --> 01:08:42.000 marketing job for example you could say 1616 01:08:42.000 --> 01:08:43.738 that's your career goal I would love to 1617 01:08:43.738 --> 01:08:45.960 design a global marketing campaign 1618 01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:48.540 strategy for example where do you see 1619 01:08:48.540 --> 01:08:50.939 yourself in five years the next question 1620 01:08:50.939 --> 01:08:53.279 a very common one where do you see 1621 01:08:53.279 --> 01:08:55.979 yourself in five years where do you see 1622 01:08:55.979 --> 01:08:57.540 yourself in five years this question 1623 01:08:57.540 --> 01:09:00.779 means after five years five years from 1624 01:09:00.779 --> 01:09:03.600 this point in time what is your vision 1625 01:09:03.600 --> 01:09:06.620 for you what is your vision of your self 1626 01:09:06.620 --> 01:09:09.960 professionally so what do you want to 1627 01:09:09.960 --> 01:09:12.900 have achieved after five years so a good 1628 01:09:12.900 --> 01:09:15.198 tip for this question is to explain 1629 01:09:15.198 --> 01:09:18.120 where you will be having made 1630 01:09:18.120 --> 01:09:20.939 contributions to the company where you 1631 01:09:20.939 --> 01:09:22.738 are interviewing so if I'm interviewing 1632 01:09:22.738 --> 01:09:24.960 at Apple and apple says where do you see 1633 01:09:24.960 --> 01:09:26.819 yourself in five years Alicia and I say 1634 01:09:26.819 --> 01:09:29.100 I see myself at Microsoft like that 1635 01:09:29.100 --> 01:09:33.600 sounds really bad so try to share your 1636 01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:35.698 your goals for yourself in a five-year 1637 01:09:35.698 --> 01:09:38.520 period but again try to align them with 1638 01:09:38.520 --> 01:09:40.259 the company where you're interviewing 1639 01:09:40.259 --> 01:09:42.540 and explain like how you plan to 1640 01:09:42.540 --> 01:09:44.698 contribute to the company and develop 1641 01:09:44.698 --> 01:09:46.859 yourself professionally that can be a 1642 01:09:46.859 --> 01:09:48.540 really good way to to answer this 1643 01:09:48.540 --> 01:09:51.000 question for example I see myself in a 1644 01:09:51.000 --> 01:09:52.859 managerial position in this company 1645 01:09:52.859 --> 01:09:55.140 working on multiple projects for 1646 01:09:55.140 --> 01:09:57.600 multiple markets 1647 01:09:57.600 --> 01:09:59.880 why do you want to work here the next 1648 01:09:59.880 --> 01:10:01.738 question is why do you want to work here 1649 01:10:01.738 --> 01:10:03.900 why do you want to work here so similar 1650 01:10:03.900 --> 01:10:05.880 to why are you interested in this 1651 01:10:05.880 --> 01:10:08.340 position that one's like that question 1652 01:10:08.340 --> 01:10:10.380 is very much about this job in 1653 01:10:10.380 --> 01:10:12.600 particular but the question why do you 1654 01:10:12.600 --> 01:10:14.280 want to work here means why do you want 1655 01:10:14.280 --> 01:10:16.198 to work in this company like in this 1656 01:10:16.198 --> 01:10:18.540 place specifically so share something 1657 01:10:18.540 --> 01:10:21.060 about the company that you like or share 1658 01:10:21.060 --> 01:10:24.179 something some reason the company is 1659 01:10:24.179 --> 01:10:26.760 attractive to you as a candidate so 1660 01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:28.620 maybe it's the location or maybe it's 1661 01:10:28.620 --> 01:10:32.340 the ability to work overseas or maybe 1662 01:10:32.340 --> 01:10:34.140 it's an international environment or 1663 01:10:34.140 --> 01:10:35.939 maybe you can use your English skills 1664 01:10:35.939 --> 01:10:38.698 some reason why you're interested in 1665 01:10:38.698 --> 01:10:41.159 working at this company specifically 1666 01:10:41.159 --> 01:10:43.560 share that after this question so 1667 01:10:43.560 --> 01:10:45.900 example I think there's a lot to learn 1668 01:10:45.900 --> 01:10:47.880 and I think there are opportunities for 1669 01:10:47.880 --> 01:10:49.260 promotion 1670 01:10:49.260 --> 01:10:51.600 do you have any questions for me 1671 01:10:51.600 --> 01:10:54.179 last one the last question is very 1672 01:10:54.179 --> 01:10:56.760 common do you have any questions for me 1673 01:10:56.760 --> 01:10:58.500 do you have any questions for me 1674 01:10:58.500 --> 01:11:00.479 interviewers will often ask this 1675 01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:02.420 question at the end of an interview 1676 01:11:02.420 --> 01:11:05.400 inviting the candidate to ask questions 1677 01:11:05.400 --> 01:11:08.460 about the company it is usually a very 1678 01:11:08.460 --> 01:11:11.219 good idea to prepare some questions for 1679 01:11:11.219 --> 01:11:13.738 the interviewer so it's it's also a good 1680 01:11:13.738 --> 01:11:15.420 idea to research your company or 1681 01:11:15.420 --> 01:11:16.920 research the university you're 1682 01:11:16.920 --> 01:11:19.979 interviewing for before the interview so 1683 01:11:19.979 --> 01:11:21.540 if you have questions about the company 1684 01:11:21.540 --> 01:11:24.900 company policy that sort of thing it's a 1685 01:11:24.900 --> 01:11:26.760 great chance to ask your interviewer 1686 01:11:26.760 --> 01:11:29.100 generally however it's not a good idea 1687 01:11:29.100 --> 01:11:31.800 to ask specific questions about pay or 1688 01:11:31.800 --> 01:11:34.620 vacation in the interview as you can be 1689 01:11:34.620 --> 01:11:37.560 seen as maybe two being too money or too 1690 01:11:37.560 --> 01:11:39.719 vacation focused that might come a 1691 01:11:39.719 --> 01:11:41.880 little later if you say what's the 1692 01:11:41.880 --> 01:11:44.760 salary for this job like unless it's a 1693 01:11:44.760 --> 01:11:46.860 situation unless it's a kind of a close 1694 01:11:46.860 --> 01:11:49.198 situation that might be too direct a 1695 01:11:49.198 --> 01:11:51.900 question but instead ask some some 1696 01:11:51.900 --> 01:11:53.460 things about the company ask your 1697 01:11:53.460 --> 01:11:55.679 interviewer what it's like to work there 1698 01:11:55.679 --> 01:11:57.900 what your interviewer thinks is good 1699 01:11:57.900 --> 01:12:00.179 about working for the company or maybe 1700 01:12:00.179 --> 01:12:02.580 what your interviewer thinks the company 1701 01:12:02.580 --> 01:12:04.800 is planning to do over the next few 1702 01:12:04.800 --> 01:12:07.920 years ask something of your interviewer 1703 01:12:07.920 --> 01:12:10.260 so it shows that you are interested in 1704 01:12:10.260 --> 01:12:12.479 that company and that you want to learn 1705 01:12:12.479 --> 01:12:14.400 more and participate more with that 1706 01:12:14.400 --> 01:12:16.500 company so make sure to have some 1707 01:12:16.500 --> 01:12:18.780 questions prepared when your interviewer 1708 01:12:18.780 --> 01:12:21.179 asks do you have any questions for me so 1709 01:12:21.179 --> 01:12:23.340 example question what do you think is 1710 01:12:23.340 --> 01:12:25.140 the most rewarding part about working 1711 01:12:25.140 --> 01:12:28.380 here so those are 10 job interview 1712 01:12:28.380 --> 01:12:31.080 questions and a few different ways you 1713 01:12:31.080 --> 01:12:33.179 can respond to them so I think those are 1714 01:12:33.179 --> 01:12:35.460 useful for job interviews yes but maybe 1715 01:12:35.460 --> 01:12:37.560 if you interview for like a university 1716 01:12:37.560 --> 01:12:40.380 or interview for a scholarship or 1717 01:12:40.380 --> 01:12:42.540 something you can use similar responses 1718 01:12:42.540 --> 01:12:44.820 to similar questions so if you have any 1719 01:12:44.820 --> 01:12:46.620 questions or comments please let us know 1720 01:12:46.620 --> 01:12:48.540 in the comment section below this video 1721 01:12:48.540 --> 01:12:50.760 if you liked the video please make

01:16:33.238 no big problem the next word is yes yes 1817 01:16:33.238 --> 01:16:37.040 of course yes means is any positive 1818 01:16:37.040 --> 01:16:39.600 expression someone asks you a question 1819 01:16:39.600 --> 01:16:41.880 and the answer is a positive answer you 1820 01:16:41.880 --> 01:16:47.219 say yes yep uh-huh yeah we no next I'm 1821 01:16:47.219 --> 01:16:48.600 guessing I know

negative answer so as you can probably 1825 01:16:55.679 --> 01:16:59.640 guess the long form of no is negative I 1826 01:16:59.640 --> 01:17:01.380 like to use nope it's very very casual 1827 01:17:01.380 --> 01:17:03.780 not gonna happen my parents would use 1828 01:17:03.780 --> 01:17:06.000 that with me to soften that a little bit 1829 01:17:06.000 --> 01:17:08.400 if you want to show a negative response 1830 01:17:08.400 --> 01:17:09.659 to something like let's go for dinner 1831 01:17:09.659 --> 01:17:11.340 tonight what do you want to do like do 1832 01:17:11.340 --> 01:17:15.780

because they 1838 01:17:30.300 --> 01:17:31.920 were copy editors and they have a very 1839 01:17:31.920 --> 01:17:33.780 very sick sense of humor they thought 1840 01:17:33.780 --> 01:17:36.600 they would mark it okay for all clear to 1841 01:17:36.600 --> 01:17:39.000 make a joke because o and K do not start 1842 01:17:39.000 --> 01:17:41.880 all and clear but it caught on 1843 01:17:41.880 -->

that mean and 2562 01:49:09.659 --> 01:49:11.520 native speakers use this too like we 2563 01:49:11.520 --> 01:49:13.198 don't understand everything like 2564 01:49:13.198 --> 01:49:15.420 sometimes everybody needs an explanation 2565 01:49:15.420 --> 01:49:19.198 so what does that mean is a great way to 2566 01:49:19.198 --> 01:49:21.719 ask for it what does that mean in fast 2567 01:49:21.719 --> 01:49:23.698 speech is what does that mean what does 2568 01:49:23.698 --> 01:49:27.060 that mean so the th in that becomes like 2569 01:49:27.060 --> 01:49:31.260 a s or a z sound what does that mean so 2570 01:49:31.260 --> 01:49:34.320 it connects to that z sound in does what 2571 01:49:34.320 --> 01:49:36.600 does that mean what does that mean so 2572 01:49:36.600 --> 01:49:39.000 what does that mean it's like you don't 2573 01:49:39.000 --> 01:49:41.219 understand something that's written or 2574 01:49:41.219 --> 01:49:42.900 maybe you don't understand the 2575 01:49:42.900 --> 01:49:46.139 implications implications means like the 2576 01:49:46.139 --> 01:49:48.600 um like the background information of a 2577 01:49:48.600 --> 01:49:51.540 situation so what does that mean or you 2578 01:49:51.540 --> 01:49:53.100 don't understand something someone else 2579 01:49:53.100 --> 01:49:55.198 said but they're gone 2580 01:49:55.198 --> 01:49:58.860 so you can't say what did you say you 2581 01:49:58.860 --> 01:50:00.600 ask someone else what does that mean 2582 01:50:00.600 --> 01:50:02.219 what that person just said what does 2583 01:50:02.219 --> 01:50:03.960 that mean so what does that mean is 2584 01:50:03.960 --> 01:50:06.420 another really important expression for 2585 01:50:06.420 --> 01:50:08.820 Learners especially I don't feel so good 2586 01:50:08.820 --> 01:50:11.520 I don't feel so good so if you don't 2587 01:50:11.520 --> 01:50:13.738 want to specifically say like my stomach 2588 01:50:13.738 --> 01:50:15.840 hurts or my arm hurts or my head hurts 2589 01:50:15.840 --> 01:50:19.679 you can say I don't feel so good so this 2590 01:50:19.679 --> 01:50:22.260 tends to be used more for like stomach 2591 01:50:22.260 --> 01:50:25.198 problems so I don't feel so good I ate a 2592 01:50:25.198 --> 01:50:27.840 huge lunch I don't feel so good or maybe 2593 01:50:27.840 --> 01:50:30.300 you ate something bad I don't feel so 2594 01:50:30.300 --> 01:50:32.760 good we often use I don't feel so good 2595 01:50:32.760 --> 01:50:35.820 when we actually feel very bad very 2596 01:50:35.820 --> 01:50:39.000 suddenly like in the examples I 2597 01:50:39.000 --> 01:50:41.460 mentioned when we eat something and our 2598 01:50:41.460 --> 01:50:43.560 body is not happy with it and we 2599 01:50:43.560 --> 01:50:45.960 suddenly feel sick we might use the 2600 01:50:45.960 --> 01:50:48.238 Expression I don't feel so good I need 2601 01:50:48.238 --> 01:50:50.939 to go home so you can use this to talk 2602 01:50:50.939 --> 01:50:53.100 about like a sudden and unpleasant 2603 01:50:53.100 --> 01:50:55.198 feeling in your body I don't feel so 2604 01:50:55.198 --> 01:50:59.219 good I need to go to location I need to 2605 01:50:59.219 --> 01:51:02.100 go to location I need to go to location 2606 01:51:02.100 --> 01:51:05.880 is useful for talking about errands so 2607 01:51:05.880 --> 01:51:08.520 errands is like small tasks you need to 2608 01:51:08.520 --> 01:51:10.679 do throughout the day we also use this 2609 01:51:10.679 --> 01:51:12.600 expression when we need to visit the 2610 01:51:12.600 --> 01:51:15.119 restroom urgently so you can say I need 2611 01:51:15.119 --> 01:51:16.800 to go to the restroom that's great 2612 01:51:16.800 --> 01:51:19.139 that's very natural and polite way to 2613 01:51:19.139 --> 01:51:20.540 talk about visiting the restroom 2614 01:51:20.540 --> 01:51:23.100 otherwise when you're talking about your 2615 01:51:23.100 --> 01:51:25.198 daily tasks you can say I need to go to 2616 01:51:25.198 --> 01:51:26.880 the bank I need to go to the store I 2617 01:51:26.880 --> 01:51:29.400 need to go to the car wash I need to go 2618 01:51:29.400 --> 01:51:31.560 to the pet sitter and pick up my 2619 01:51:31.560 --> 01:51:33.780 neighbor's poodle what that was very 2620 01:51:33.780 --> 01:51:34.698 specific 2621 01:51:34.698 --> 01:51:36.960 so you can talk about your 2622 01:51:36.960 --> 01:51:40.080 responsibilities with need to yes you 2623 01:51:40.080 --> 01:51:43.020 can substitute have to here I have to go 2624 01:51:43.020 --> 01:51:44.520 to the bank I have to go to the store 2625 01:51:44.520 --> 01:51:47.639 keep in mind also when you want to use 2626 01:51:47.639 --> 01:51:50.880 the negative form I don't have to or I 2627 01:51:50.880 --> 01:51:54.300 don't need to you can but make sure you 2628 01:51:54.300 --> 01:51:56.880 use it with something you don't have a 2629 01:51:56.880 --> 01:51:59.698 responsibility to do I hear lots of 2630 01:51:59.698 --> 01:52:02.580 Learners use expressions like I don't 2631 01:52:02.580 --> 01:52:06.238 have to go to the bar today for example 2632 01:52:06.238 --> 01:52:09.479 like if going to a bar is part of your 2633 01:52:09.479 --> 01:52:12.060 regular responsibilities like you work 2634 01:52:12.060 --> 01:52:14.520 at a bar or like part of your business 2635 01:52:14.520 --> 01:52:17.639 is at a bar fine but if it's just 2636 01:52:17.639 --> 01:52:19.979 something you occasionally do it sounds 2637 01:52:19.979 --> 01:52:22.679 really unnatural to use I don't have to 2638 01:52:22.679 --> 01:52:25.500 go to the bar today so we use this in 2639 01:52:25.500 --> 01:52:27.479 the negative form for things we can 2640 01:52:27.479 --> 01:52:30.420 naturally and reasonably be expected to 2641 01:52:30.420 --> 01:52:33.300 have responsibility to do so keep that 2642 01:52:33.300 --> 01:52:35.040 in mind when you use the negative form 2643 01:52:35.040 --> 01:52:39.238 okay onward I have to I have to so my 2644 01:52:39.238 --> 01:52:41.820 previous one was I need to go to a place 2645 01:52:41.820 --> 01:52:44.040 if you want to just talk in general 2646 01:52:44.040 --> 01:52:46.920 about responsibilities you can use I 2647 01:52:46.920 --> 01:52:49.619 have to I have to get up early in the 2648 01:52:49.619 --> 01:52:52.198 morning I have to study for my tests I 2649 01:52:52.198 --> 01:52:56.820 have to think of a new hairstyle for my 2650 01:52:56.820 --> 01:52:59.639 cat yesterday I had to to past tense I 2651 01:52:59.639 --> 01:53:01.679 had to buy new clothes because my 2652 01:53:01.679 --> 01:53:03.719 director was making fun of me for 2653 01:53:03.719 --> 01:53:05.820 wearing shirts and they were falling 2654 01:53:05.820 --> 01:53:08.698 apart on camera because that's how much 2655 01:53:08.698 --> 01:53:12.060 I love shopping yeah so past tense I had 2656 01:53:12.060 --> 01:53:14.698 to buy new clothes yesterday or I had to 2657 01:53:14.698 --> 01:53:18.000 go out in the rain yesterday so again I 2658 01:53:18.000 --> 01:53:20.939 had some responsibility to do that so 2659 01:53:20.939 --> 01:53:23.520 past tense had to when are we leaving 2660 01:53:23.520 --> 01:53:26.219 when are we leaving I included this here 2661 01:53:26.219 --> 01:53:29.280 because it's a common question 2662 01:53:29.280 --> 01:53:31.320 surprisingly like when are we leaving 2663 01:53:31.320 --> 01:53:34.800 not uh when do we go that's one that I 2664 01:53:34.800 --> 01:53:37.860 hear sometime like when do we go or when 2665 01:53:37.860 --> 01:53:40.139 we go or something like that don't use 2666 01:53:40.139 --> 01:53:43.800 those sorry Mr iPad um the question is 2667 01:53:43.800 --> 01:53:47.040 when are we leaving so we use this when 2668 01:53:47.040 --> 01:53:49.198 we're at an event we're at a party we're 2669 01:53:49.198 --> 01:53:51.420 maybe at work whatever you're going 2670 01:53:51.420 --> 01:53:53.639 somewhere else with another person or 2671 01:53:53.639 --> 01:53:56.639 with a group when are we leaving when 2672 01:53:56.639 --> 01:53:59.159 are we leaving this place in other words 2673 01:53:59.159 --> 01:54:02.040 so natural pronunciation when are we 2674 01:54:02.040 --> 01:54:04.619 leaving when are we leaving becomes when 2675 01:54:04.619 --> 01:54:07.520 are we leaving okay so those are 25 2676 01:54:07.520 --> 01:54:10.439 must-know intermediate phrases I hope 2677 01:54:10.439 --> 01:54:12.719 that those are helpful for you many of 2678 01:54:12.719 --> 01:54:14.939 the phrases that I introduced here are 2679 01:54:14.939 --> 01:54:17.219 in present tense but remember you can 2680 01:54:17.219 --> 01:54:19.139 use them in past tense and in future 2681 01:54:19.139 --> 01:54:22.260 tense too so don't stick only to present 2682 01:54:22.260 --> 01:54:25.080 tense make sure to go outside of present 2683 01:54:25.080 --> 01:54:27.179 tense and think about the different ways 2684 01:54:27.179 --> 01:54:29.219 that you can use these Expressions to 2685 01:54:29.219 --> 01:54:31.619 talk about the past and the Future Okay 2686 01:54:31.619 -->

hope this is 2768 02:00:51.360 --> 02:00:53.699 helpful for you okay so let's get 2769 02:00:53.699 --> 02:00:57.119 started the first group of tenses I want 2770 02:00:57.119 --> 02:01:00.060 to look at is the present tense so for 2771 02:01:00.060 --> 02:01:02.280 today's lesson I've organized it into 2772 02:01:02.280 --> 02:01:05.639 three categories present past and future 2773 02:01:05.639 --> 02:01:08.880 tenses so let's begin with the present 2774 02:01:08.880 --> 02:01:11.940 tense so in each category I have four 2775 02:01:11.940 --> 02:01:14.760 are different tenses I have simple 2776 02:01:14.760 --> 02:01:17.280 continuous perfect and perfect 2777 02:01:17.280 --> 02:01:20.699 continuous you might know continuous as 2778 02:01:20.699 --> 02:01:22.800 Progressive they mean the same thing 2779 02:01:22.800 --> 02:01:25.380 continuous and Progressive mean the same 2780 02:01:25.380 --> 02:01:27.719 thing for this lesson so let's begin 2781 02:01:27.719 --> 02:01:30.599 with the present simple tense present 2782 02:01:30.599 --> 02:01:33.060 simple tense is a tense we use for 2783 02:01:33.060 --> 02:01:36.480 General facts for regular actions and 2784 02:01:36.480 --> 02:01:39.000 for schedules so this is stuff that 2785 02:01:39.000 --> 02:01:42.300 doesn't change like he speaks English 2786 02:01:42.300 --> 02:01:44.940 for example she doesn't speak Spanish 2787 02:01:44.940 --> 02:01:48.000 that's a simple fact for regular action 2788 02:01:48.000 --> 02:01:50.520 so things you do every day or every week 2789 02:01:50.520 --> 02:01:53.639 for example and schedule so that means 2790 02:01:53.639 --> 02:01:56.940 like a bus or an airplane or maybe a car 2791 02:01:56.940 --> 02:01:59.280 schedule something that maintains a 2792 02:01:59.280 --> 02:02:02.219 regular schedule an example two examples 2793 02:02:02.219 --> 02:02:04.760 of using the present simple tense first 2794 02:02:04.760 --> 02:02:08.520 I work on Mondays so here work is my 2795 02:02:08.520 --> 02:02:11.040 verb I work on Mondays simple present 2796 02:02:11.040 --> 02:02:14.580 tense a negative I don't eat lunch at 2797 02:02:14.580 --> 02:02:17.460 two o'clock so these are simple present 2798 02:02:17.460 --> 02:02:19.679 tense statements in this case they're 2799 02:02:19.679 --> 02:02:21.599 just simple statements of fact really 2800 02:02:21.599 --> 02:02:25.199 okay so let's continue to the next one 2801 02:02:25.199 --> 02:02:27.540 the second tense is the present 2802 02:02:27.540 --> 02:02:30.239 continuous tense the present continuous 2803 02:02:30.239 --> 02:02:33.719 tense so present continuous tense we use 2804 02:02:33.719 --> 02:02:36.659 for continuing actions and that means 2805 02:02:36.659 --> 02:02:39.719 actions that are happening now so for 2806 02:02:39.719 --> 02:02:42.780 example I'm teaching I'm standing I'm 2807 02:02:42.780 --> 02:02:46.260 speaking those are actions happening now 2808 02:02:46.260 --> 02:02:48.719 so we use it for continuing actions now 2809 02:02:48.719 --> 02:02:52.380 like physical actions we also use it for 2810 02:02:52.380 --> 02:02:55.320 Trends so things happening in your 2811 02:02:55.320 --> 02:02:58.199 Society right now for example so 2812 02:02:58.199 --> 02:03:01.020 examples would be like that TV show is 2813 02:03:01.020 --> 02:03:04.320 becoming popular or the world is getting 2814 02:03:04.320 --> 02:03:07.080 warmer for example so these are things 2815 02:03:07.080 --> 02:03:10.679 happening now also we can use it for 2816 02:03:10.679 --> 02:03:13.619 one-time actions as well and this 2817 02:03:13.619 --> 02:03:15.960 relates a little bit to future tense 2818 02:03:15.960 --> 02:03:18.300 which I'm going to talk about later too 2819 02:03:18.300 --> 02:03:21.300 but something happening just one time in 2820 02:03:21.300 --> 02:03:23.940 the future we can use the continuous 2821 02:03:23.940 --> 02:03:27.780 form to describe that so for example I'm 2822 02:03:27.780 --> 02:03:30.780 working this Saturday so sometimes 2823 02:03:30.780 --> 02:03:32.940 students ask what's the difference why 2824 02:03:32.940 --> 02:03:35.460 is it I'm working this Saturday and not 2825 02:03:35.460 --> 02:03:38.880 I work this Saturday remember we talked 2826 02:03:38.880 --> 02:03:40.980 about the present simple tense we use 2827 02:03:40.980 --> 02:03:42.960 that for regular actions for General 2828 02:03:42.960 --> 02:03:46.679 facts so if you usually work on 2829 02:03:46.679 --> 02:03:48.719 Saturdays you should use the present 2830 02:03:48.719 --> 02:03:51.360 simple tense I work on Saturdays if 2831 02:03:51.360 --> 02:03:54.480 however this Saturday is special and you 2832 02:03:54.480 --> 02:03:56.580 don't usually work on Saturdays you 2833 02:03:56.580 --> 02:03:58.560 should use the continuous tense I'm 2834 02:03:58.560 --> 02:04:00.780 working this Saturday so it sounds like 2835 02:04:00.780 --> 02:04:03.119 that's not a typical thing for you I'm 2836 02:04:03.119 --> 02:04:05.580 working this Saturday okay let's go on 2837 02:04:05.580 --> 02:04:07.739 to the third tense the third tense is 2838 02:04:07.739 --> 02:04:09.840 the present perfect tense present 2839 02:04:09.840 --> 02:04:12.360 perfect tense so we use the present 2840 02:04:12.360 --> 02:04:14.520 perfect tense for General life 2841 02:04:14.520 --> 02:04:17.580 experience or lack thereof so lack 2842 02:04:17.580 --> 02:04:20.340 thereof means no no life experience not 2843 02:04:20.340 --> 02:04:23.159 having a life experience so something 2844 02:04:23.159 --> 02:04:26.820 that you did in the past but not at a 2845 02:04:26.820 --> 02:04:29.040 specific point in time the specific 2846 02:04:29.040 --> 02:04:31.500 point in time is not so important here 2847 02:04:31.500 --> 02:04:34.800 or maybe we don't know so example a 2848 02:04:34.800 --> 02:04:38.099 negative example he has Never Been to 2849 02:04:38.099 --> 02:04:40.320 Spain he has Never Been to Spain in this 2850 02:04:40.320 --> 02:04:43.739 case no life experience of going to 2851 02:04:43.739 --> 02:04:46.080 Spain is what this means so this is an 2852 02:04:46.080 --> 02:04:49.020 example of present perfect tense here we 2853 02:04:49.020 --> 02:04:52.020 have he has remember we need to attach 2854 02:04:52.020 --> 02:04:56.580 has or have before our past participle 2855 02:04:56.580 --> 02:04:58.980 verb form here so for more information 2856 02:04:58.980 --> 02:05:01.199 about this tense you can check the 2857 02:05:01.199 --> 02:05:02.820 channel there's more information there 2858 02:05:02.820 --> 02:05:05.699 so let's continue on to the next tense 2859 02:05:05.699 --> 02:05:07.500 now the next tense is the present 2860 02:05:07.500 --> 02:05:09.960 perfect continuous tense present perfect 2861 02:05:09.960 --> 02:05:13.320 continuous we use this tense for actions 2862 02:05:13.320 --> 02:05:16.260 that started in the past and continue to 2863 02:05:16.260 --> 02:05:18.119 the present so something you started 2864 02:05:18.119 --> 02:05:20.820 doing in the past some point in the past 2865 02:05:20.820 --> 02:05:24.540 it's not always important when but that 2866 02:05:24.540 --> 02:05:27.179 action continues so you use this a lot 2867 02:05:27.179 --> 02:05:29.520 to talk about your studies for example 2868 02:05:29.520 --> 02:05:33.480 we use words like for and since and 2869 02:05:33.480 --> 02:05:36.119 maybe a go with this as well so an 2870 02:05:36.119 --> 02:05:38.699 example of this I've been studying 2871 02:05:38.699 --> 02:05:42.000 English for two years so here we see 2872 02:05:42.000 --> 02:05:45.239 I've been this I've is the contracted 2873 02:05:45.239 --> 02:05:49.040 the reduced form of I have I have been 2874 02:05:49.040 --> 02:05:51.900 studying so this is the continuous or 2875 02:05:51.900 --> 02:05:54.179 the progressive form in this case I've 2876 02:05:54.179 --> 02:05:56.520 used the word for I've used four because 2877 02:05:56.520 --> 02:05:59.520 I'm using two years which is a length of 2878 02:05:59.520 --> 02:06:02.760 time we can use since for example I've 2879 02:06:02.760 --> 02:06:06.540 been studying English since 2016. so we 2880 02:06:06.540 --> 02:06:09.659 use since before a specific point in 2881 02:06:09.659 --> 02:06:13.800 time we can use a go as well usually we 2882 02:06:13.800 --> 02:06:15.780 pair it with synths I've been studying 2883 02:06:15.780 --> 02:06:19.080 English since two years ago you'll 2884 02:06:19.080 --> 02:06:21.780 notice when we use a go however we 2885 02:06:21.780 --> 02:06:24.560 change from using in my first example 2886 02:06:24.560 --> 02:06:28.560 2016 to a length of time since two years 2887 02:06:28.560 --> 02:06:31.020 ago so there are a few different changes 2888 02:06:31.020 --> 02:06:32.820 you need to make there but you can check 2889 02:06:32.820 --> 02:06:35.159 the other video on the channel for more 2890 02:06:35.159 --> 02:06:37.139 information about that 2891 02:06:37.139 --> 02:06:40.020 okay let's move on to the second group 2892 02:06:40.020 --> 02:06:42.540 for today which is the past tense let's 2893 02:06:42.540 --> 02:06:44.580 look at the Four Points in the past 2894 02:06:44.580 --> 02:06:47.699 tense here first one is the past simple 2895 02:06:47.699 --> 02:06:50.219 or just simple past tense simple past 2896 02:06:50.219 --> 02:06:52.800 tense is used for actions that started 2897 02:06:52.800 --> 02:06:56.280 and finished in the past so for example 2898 02:06:56.280 --> 02:07:00.179 I taught simple present tense earlier so 2899 02:07:00.179 --> 02:07:02.820 I used past tense I taught simple 2900 02:07:02.820 --> 02:07:05.340 present tense because the action started 2901 02:07:05.340 --> 02:07:08.760 and finished in the past another example 2902 02:07:08.760 --> 02:07:12.360 I worked all night I worked all night so 2903 02:07:12.360 --> 02:07:15.480 work is my verb I use simple past tense 2904 02:07:15.480 --> 02:07:18.179 worked because the action started and 2905 02:07:18.179 --> 02:07:21.060 finished in the past another example a 2906 02:07:21.060 --> 02:07:23.639 negative they didn't come they didn't 2907 02:07:23.639 --> 02:07:25.440 come to the party they didn't come to 2908 02:07:25.440 --> 02:07:28.320 the office the action was in the past it 2909 02:07:28.320 --> 02:07:30.840 refers to something that did not happen 2910 02:07:30.840 --> 02:07:33.300 in the past so there was no action in 2911 02:07:33.300 --> 02:07:35.940 the past but it's over it's finished so 2912 02:07:35.940 --> 02:07:37.920 we use simple past tense to talk about 2913 02:07:37.920 --> 02:07:40.619 these simple actions that started and 2914 02:07:40.619 --> 02:07:44.099 finished in the past okay let's go on to 2915 02:07:44.099 --> 02:07:47.340 the Past continuous them past continuous 2916 02:07:47.340 --> 02:07:50.580 is for actions that we're continuing in 2917 02:07:50.580 --> 02:07:53.580 the past so this one is one we often use 2918 02:07:53.580 --> 02:07:56.639 with a specific point in time along with 2919 02:07:56.639 --> 02:07:59.940 it so let's look at an example first 2920 02:07:59.940 --> 02:08:02.219 we were listening to music we were 2921 02:08:02.219 --> 02:08:04.380 listening to music yesterday or we were 2922 02:08:04.380 --> 02:08:07.500 listening to music at 8 pm when were you 2923 02:08:07.500 --> 02:08:09.480 listening to music when was that action 2924 02:08:09.480 --> 02:08:13.440 continuing at 8 pm or yesterday so it's 2925 02:08:13.440 --> 02:08:16.500 common to include a point in time with 2926 02:08:16.500 --> 02:08:18.599 this grammar Point another example like 2927 02:08:18.599 --> 02:08:21.599 I was doing something something ing form 2928 02:08:21.599 --> 02:08:25.320 there so this is one that's some people 2929 02:08:25.320 --> 02:08:27.540 have questions about like why should I 2930 02:08:27.540 --> 02:08:29.760 use that when should I use that it's 2931 02:08:29.760 --> 02:08:31.920 typically used in response to someone's 2932 02:08:31.920 --> 02:08:34.440 question like what were you doing last 2933 02:08:34.440 --> 02:08:36.840 night for example or what were you doing 2934 02:08:36.840 --> 02:08:38.760 this morning so you want to know 2935 02:08:38.760 --> 02:08:41.639 someone's activities at a specific point 2936 02:08:41.639 --> 02:08:43.860 in time you can use this grammar point 2937 02:08:43.860 --> 02:08:45.780 to respond to that question 2938 02:08:45.780 --> 02:08:48.420 okay let's move along to the past 2939 02:08:48.420 --> 02:08:50.520 perfect tense our next one past perfect 2940 02:08:50.520 --> 02:08:53.159 tense is for actions that were completed 2941 02:08:53.159 --> 02:08:57.239 or not completed at a non-specific point 2942 02:08:57.239 --> 02:08:59.460 in the past at a non-specific point in 2943 02:08:59.460 --> 02:09:00.360 the past 2944 02:09:00.360 --> 02:09:03.000 so this one is kind of difficult and 2945 02:09:03.000 --> 02:09:06.900 it's perhaps not used quite so much in 2946 02:09:06.900 --> 02:09:09.300 everyday conversation this is used a bit 2947 02:09:09.300 --> 02:09:11.699 more in writing this is a grammar Point 2948 02:09:11.699 --> 02:09:14.280 that's especially helpful when we want 2949 02:09:14.280 --> 02:09:16.679 to show kind of a timeline in our 2950 02:09:16.679 --> 02:09:19.080 writing to show that an action happened 2951 02:09:19.080 --> 02:09:22.619 before another action in the past we can 2952 02:09:22.619 --> 02:09:25.260 use the past perfect tense so here's a 2953 02:09:25.260 --> 02:09:28.619 couple of examples uh first one they 2954 02:09:28.619 --> 02:09:31.560 hadn't departed yet so here hadn't is 2955 02:09:31.560 --> 02:09:34.080 the reduced form of had not they hadn't 2956 02:09:34.080 --> 02:09:37.260 departed yet and I had taken my lunch 2957 02:09:37.260 --> 02:09:38.159 break 2958 02:09:38.159 --> 02:09:41.400 so we would use sentences like these if 2959 02:09:41.400 --> 02:09:43.739 we're telling a story so we're telling a 2960 02:09:43.739 --> 02:09:45.900 story about the past and we want to show 2961 02:09:45.900 --> 02:09:48.420 that one action happened before another 2962 02:09:48.420 --> 02:09:51.000 action when we want to talk about the 2963 02:09:51.000 --> 02:09:52.800 earlier action so the thing that 2964 02:09:52.800 --> 02:09:55.320 happened earlier like more in the past 2965 02:09:55.320 --> 02:09:58.500 we use the past perfect tense then we 2966 02:09:58.500 --> 02:10:00.840 can use the simple past tense to explain 2967 02:10:00.840 --> 02:10:03.540 the action that happened closer to the 2968 02:10:03.540 --> 02:10:06.239 present so for example 2969 02:10:06.239 --> 02:10:10.199 I had taken my lunch break when I saw 2970 02:10:10.199 --> 02:10:13.020 the delivery man came or something like 2971 02:10:13.020 --> 02:10:14.880 that so you can see my second point 2972 02:10:14.880 --> 02:10:16.380 there that's kind of a strange example 2973 02:10:16.380 --> 02:10:18.960 but you see that my second point there 2974 02:10:18.960 --> 02:10:21.659 uses the simple past tense I saw the 2975 02:10:21.659 --> 02:10:23.760 delivery man came so I had taken my 2976 02:10:23.760 --> 02:10:26.639 lunch break further in the past when I 2977 02:10:26.639 --> 02:10:28.920 saw the delivery man came so that's 2978 02:10:28.920 --> 02:10:30.780 simple past tense so this is probably 2979 02:10:30.780 --> 02:10:33.480 more common in writing but it is used in 2980 02:10:33.480 --> 02:10:36.239 speaking as well too so this is what we 2981 02:10:36.239 --> 02:10:39.060 use a past perfect tense to do okay 2982 02:10:39.060 --> 02:10:40.739 let's move on then to another 2983 02:10:40.739 --> 02:10:43.400 challenging point a past perfect 2984 02:10:43.400 --> 02:10:46.340 continuous tense past perfect continuous 2985 02:10:46.340 --> 02:10:48.719 these uh these are sentences or 2986 02:10:48.719 --> 02:10:51.599 questions for actions that started in 2987 02:10:51.599 --> 02:10:55.320 the past and continued to like an 2988 02:10:55.320 --> 02:10:57.900 unspecified point in the past so the 2989 02:10:57.900 --> 02:11:00.659 action has finished as well that's a key 2990 02:11:00.659 --> 02:11:02.880 difference with the present perfect 2991 02:11:02.880 --> 02:11:04.619 continuous with present perfect 2992 02:11:04.619 --> 02:11:07.739 continuous the action is happening now 2993 02:11:07.739 --> 02:11:10.920 still that behavior still continues key 2994 02:11:10.920 --> 02:11:12.300 point though with past perfect 2995 02:11:12.300 --> 02:11:15.119 continuous is that the action started at 2996 02:11:15.119 --> 02:11:16.980 some point in the past and then 2997 02:11:16.980 --> 02:11:20.099 continued and finished as well but at 2998 02:11:20.099 --> 02:11:22.920 some unspecified point so maybe we don't 2999 02:11:22.920 --> 02:11:24.960 know exactly when the action finished 3000 02:11:24.960 --> 02:11:27.540 but it's done it's complete so let's 3001 02:11:27.540 --> 02:11:29.460 look at an example 3002 02:11:29.460 --> 02:11:33.060 they had been waiting since 3 pm 3003 02:11:33.060 --> 02:11:36.840 so here they had been waiting this shows 3004 02:11:36.840 --> 02:11:39.780 us that there was some waiting period so 3005 02:11:39.780 --> 02:11:42.780 the The Waiting started at 3 P.M and the 3006 02:11:42.780 --> 02:11:44.280 waiting continued and continued and 3007 02:11:44.280 --> 02:11:46.800 continued we don't know when the waiting 3008 02:11:46.800 --> 02:11:49.260 finished but this grammar Point shows us 3009 02:11:49.260 --> 02:11:51.179 that the waiting has finished we're 3010 02:11:51.179 --> 02:11:53.580 finished waiting that's done we wanted 3011 02:11:53.580 --> 02:11:55.860 to talk only about this period of time 3012 02:11:55.860 --> 02:11:58.380 the people were waiting in the past so 3013 02:11:58.380 --> 02:12:00.300 this is the grammar point that we use to 3014 02:12:00.300 --> 02:12:01.940 talk about things that were happening 3015 02:12:01.940 --> 02:12:05.159 over a period of time in the past and 3016 02:12:05.159 --> 02:12:07.679 then finished so this is something again 3017 02:12:07.679 --> 02:12:09.719 we use when telling stories we're 3018 02:12:09.719 --> 02:12:12.000 showing a sequence of events actually 3019 02:12:12.000 --> 02:12:14.760 okay let's move along then to the last 3020 02:12:14.760 --> 02:12:16.980 group for today's lesson the future 3021 02:12:16.980 --> 02:12:19.139 tense future tense let's start with the 3022 02:12:19.139 --> 02:12:22.199 future simple tense future simple tense 3023 02:12:22.199 --> 02:12:25.199 this is for actions that are planned or 3024 02:12:25.199 --> 02:12:27.300 unplanned for the future 3025 02:12:27.300 --> 02:12:29.099 there are actually a lot of different 3026 02:12:29.099 --> 02:12:31.380 things we can do to make the future 3027 02:12:31.380 --> 02:12:33.840 simple tense some very common ways of 3028 02:12:33.840 --> 02:12:36.239 making future simple are through using 3029 02:12:36.239 --> 02:12:39.239 will and won't and going to and not 3030 02:12:39.239 --> 02:12:42.480 going to and earlier in this lesson I 3031 02:12:42.480 --> 02:12:44.460 mentioned using the continuous tense the 3032 02:12:44.460 --> 02:12:47.460 present continuous tense the ing form of 3033 02:12:47.460 --> 02:12:49.800 a verb to make statements about the 3034 02:12:49.800 --> 02:12:52.020 future also so there are many ways to 3035 02:12:52.020 --> 02:12:54.239 make a simple future statement let's 3036 02:12:54.239 --> 02:12:57.360 look at a couple of examples first I'll 3037 02:12:57.360 --> 02:12:59.699 have a glass of wine this uses will 3038 02:12:59.699 --> 02:13:02.699 aisle isle is the reduced form of I will 3039 02:13:02.699 --> 02:13:04.560 have a glass of wine that's a future 3040 02:13:04.560 --> 02:13:05.880 statement 3041 02:13:05.880 --> 02:13:08.880 also he's going to cook dinner in this 3042 02:13:08.880 --> 02:13:11.760 one I've used going to to express that 3043 02:13:11.760 --> 02:13:13.739 so these are just simple things about 3044 02:13:13.739 --> 02:13:15.960 planned or perhaps unplanned like he's 3045 02:13:15.960 --> 02:13:17.820 not going to cook dinner would be an 3046 02:13:17.820 --> 02:13:19.679 unplanned action in the future or 3047 02:13:19.679 --> 02:13:21.420 something that's not going to happen in 3048 02:13:21.420 --> 02:13:25.079 the future rather okay so let's go on to 3049 02:13:25.079 --> 02:13:27.719 the Future continuous tense now future 3050 02:13:27.719 --> 02:13:29.280 continuous tense 3051 02:13:29.280 --> 02:13:33.119 this is for actions you think will or 3052 02:13:33.119 --> 02:13:36.719 will not be continuing in the future in 3053 02:13:36.719 --> 02:13:38.760 the future something you think will be 3054 02:13:38.760 --> 02:13:41.040 continuously happening in the future 3055 02:13:41.040 --> 02:13:43.500 let's look at an example 3056 02:13:43.500 --> 02:13:47.520 I'm not going to be working at company a 3057 02:13:47.520 --> 02:13:49.980 I'm not going to be working at company a 3058 02:13:49.980 --> 02:13:53.639 so here you can see we have going to I'm 3059 02:13:53.639 --> 02:13:57.480 not going to plus we have a verb in the 3060 02:13:57.480 --> 02:14:00.360 continuous tense I'm not going to be 3061 02:14:00.360 --> 02:14:03.239 working at company a meaning in other 3062 02:14:03.239 --> 02:14:05.579 words I'm not going to have a job at 3063 02:14:05.579 --> 02:14:08.400 company a or I'm not going to continue 3064 02:14:08.400 --> 02:14:11.340 my position at company a in the future 3065 02:14:11.340 --> 02:14:13.679 that's my thought now in the present 3066 02:14:13.679 --> 02:14:16.500 about the future so at that time in the 3067 02:14:16.500 --> 02:14:19.320 future like in one year for example I 3068 02:14:19.320 --> 02:14:21.780 will not be working at that company or 3069 02:14:21.780 --> 02:14:24.179 I'm not going to be working at company a 3070 02:14:24.179 --> 02:14:26.820 so that's the idea behind the future 3071 02:14:26.820 --> 02:14:29.880 continuous tense okay let's move along 3072 02:14:29.880 --> 02:14:33.480 to the future perfect tense then so so 3073 02:14:33.480 --> 02:14:35.940 future perfect tense refers to actions 3074 02:14:35.940 --> 02:14:38.880 that you think will have started some 3075 02:14:38.880 --> 02:14:41.099 point in the future so remember you're 3076 02:14:41.099 --> 02:14:44.040 thinking in the present right now but 3077 02:14:44.040 --> 02:14:46.260 this grammar point is used to talk about 3078 02:14:46.260 --> 02:14:49.560 something something you imagine in the 3079 02:14:49.560 --> 02:14:50.579 future 3080 02:14:50.579 --> 02:14:53.520 that starts at some point and you think 3081 02:14:53.520 --> 02:14:56.400 might be continuing into the future 3082 02:14:56.400 --> 02:14:59.760 maybe something started and maybe 3083 02:14:59.760 --> 02:15:02.460 continues this is the idea here so let's 3084 02:15:02.460 --> 02:15:04.560 look at an example 3085 02:15:04.560 --> 02:15:09.119 uh I will have lived in China for two 3086 02:15:09.119 --> 02:15:12.420 years I will have lived in China so here 3087 02:15:12.420 --> 02:15:15.000 I'm using will to show it's a future 3088 02:15:15.000 --> 02:15:18.840 tense statement I will Plus have lived 3089 02:15:18.840 --> 02:15:21.599 this is the same thing that we use for 3090 02:15:21.599 --> 02:15:24.420 the present perfect tense that we talked 3091 02:15:24.420 --> 02:15:26.820 about earlier that past participle Plus 3092 02:15:26.820 --> 02:15:29.699 have or has but we're attaching it to a 3093 02:15:29.699 --> 02:15:33.179 future tense will I will have lived in 3094 02:15:33.179 --> 02:15:35.880 China for two years so when would we use 3095 02:15:35.880 --> 02:15:38.880 this so if for example someone asks you 3096 02:15:38.880 --> 02:15:41.639 a question about your future and they 3097 02:15:41.639 --> 02:15:45.719 say like so where do you see yourself in 3098 02:15:45.719 --> 02:15:48.840 like 2020 for example or where do you 3099 02:15:48.840 --> 02:15:51.900 imagine you're going to live in 2020 for 3100 02:15:51.900 --> 02:15:54.780 example you can say oh I will have lived 3101 02:15:54.780 --> 02:15:58.380 in China for two years so meaning at 3102 02:15:58.380 --> 02:16:02.579 that time in 2020 I will have lived in 3103 02:16:02.579 --> 02:16:05.460 China for two years so that means not 3104 02:16:05.460 --> 02:16:08.340 now but in the future at that point in 3105 02:16:08.340 --> 02:16:11.579 time in the future I will have started 3106 02:16:11.579 --> 02:16:14.340 Living in China and that will have 3107 02:16:14.340 --> 02:16:16.619 continued for two years so that's what 3108 02:16:16.619 --> 02:16:18.119 that means that's a guess about the 3109 02:16:18.119 --> 02:16:20.400 future a future time period that 3110 02:16:20.400 --> 02:16:22.860 something will have continued in the 3111 02:16:22.860 --> 02:16:25.320 future so again quite a challenging 3112 02:16:25.320 --> 02:16:27.719 grammar point but something definitely 3113 02:16:27.719 --> 02:16:30.480 to look into so again not used perhaps 3114 02:16:30.480 --> 02:16:33.240 as much as the present perfect tense but 3115 02:16:33.240 --> 02:16:35.580 great for storytelling and for imagining 3116 02:16:35.580 --> 02:16:38.760 your future too okay so let's move on to 3117 02:16:38.760 --> 02:16:41.459 the last point for today's lesson the 3118 02:16:41.459 --> 02:16:44.160 future perfect continuous tense future 3119 02:16:44.160 --> 02:16:47.399 perfect continuous this is a tense that 3120 02:16:47.399 --> 02:16:50.099 you use similar to the last one but for 3121 02:16:50.099 --> 02:16:52.740 actions you think will or won't have 3122 02:16:52.740 --> 02:16:56.580 started and will be continuing so 3123 02:16:56.580 --> 02:16:59.519 something that's going to have started 3124 02:16:59.519 --> 02:17:01.500 again in the future something started 3125 02:17:01.500 --> 02:17:03.959 and the action will have continued into 3126 02:17:03.959 --> 02:17:07.200 the future example I won't have been 3127 02:17:07.200 --> 02:17:10.080 eating meat for three months I won't 3128 02:17:10.080 --> 02:17:11.638 have been eating meat for three months 3129 02:17:11.638 --> 02:17:14.240 so for this one let's imagine 3130 02:17:14.240 --> 02:17:16.979 that you decided last month to stop 3131 02:17:16.979 --> 02:17:19.500 eating meat so that's fine actually for 3132 02:17:19.500 --> 02:17:21.300 this for this sentence that's okay you 3133 02:17:21.300 --> 02:17:23.700 made a decision last month to stop 3134 02:17:23.700 --> 02:17:25.019 eating meat 3135 02:17:25.019 --> 02:17:27.019 then someone asks you 3136 02:17:27.019 --> 02:17:29.780 about your progress like how's it going 3137 02:17:29.780 --> 02:17:33.059 like what are you going to do next month 3138 02:17:33.059 --> 02:17:36.479 and you can say to yourself hmm well at 3139 02:17:36.479 --> 02:17:38.939 that point next month by next month in 3140 02:17:38.939 --> 02:17:42.479 the future you can use this sentence I 3141 02:17:42.479 --> 02:17:46.260 won't so won't negative will not I won't 3142 02:17:46.260 --> 02:17:49.620 have been eating meat for three months 3143 02:17:49.620 --> 02:17:52.138 for three months so that means from the 3144 02:17:52.138 --> 02:17:54.359 point in time I started it in the past 3145 02:17:54.359 --> 02:17:58.200 until this point in the future so not 3146 02:17:58.200 --> 02:18:01.099 present but into the future 3147 02:18:01.099 --> 02:18:05.638 this entire time my behavior not eating 3148 02:18:05.638 --> 02:18:09.120 meat that's going to have continued so 3149 02:18:09.120 --> 02:18:11.459 you're making a guess about the future 3150 02:18:11.459 --> 02:18:14.580 so if this future point in time that 3151 02:18:14.580 --> 02:18:16.859 behavior I started in the past will have 3152 02:18:16.859 --> 02:18:18.899 continued and continued and continued 3153 02:18:18.899 --> 02:18:21.059 and at this point it will be three 3154 02:18:21.059 --> 02:18:23.160 months three months total for that 3155 02:18:23.160 --> 02:18:25.500 behavior so we use this to talk about 3156 02:18:25.500 --> 02:18:28.500 something some future thing that will 3157 02:18:28.500 --> 02:18:31.439 have continued or will be continuing 3158 02:18:31.439 --> 02:18:34.138 into the future so we'll have continued 3159 02:18:34.138 --> 02:18:36.000 meaning something that started in the 3160 02:18:36.000 --> 02:18:38.879 past and continues into the future or 3161 02:18:38.879 --> 02:18:41.580 will be continuing meaning it's still 3162 02:18:41.580 --> 02:18:44.879 going into the future as well so there 3163 02:18:44.879 --> 02:18:46.920 are a couple of like very very subtle 3164 02:18:46.920 --> 02:18:49.080 grammar points to consider there too so 3165 02:18:49.080 --> 02:18:50.760 that those are a couple of maybe tough 3166 02:18:50.760 --> 02:18:52.920 grammar points but they're really good 3167 02:18:52.920 --> 02:18:54.780 for storytelling and for talking about 3168 02:18:54.780 --> 02:18:57.959 your future as well okay so I know that 3169 02:18:57.959 --> 02:19:00.000 this was a lot of information in this 3170 02:19:00.000 --> 02:19:02.459 lesson if you have some questions about 3171 02:19:02.459 --> 02:19:05.218 where to find more details about any of 3172 02:19:05.218 -->

02:22:54.180 sorry about that 3250 02:22:54.180 --> 02:22:56.819 in general this expression when used to 3251 02:22:56.819 --> 02:22:59.399 respond to excuse me shows a friendly 3252 02:22:59.399 --> 02:23:01.680 willingness to help the other person 3253 02:23:01.680 --> 02:23:04.140 in this case Henry wanted to show he was 3254 02:23:04.140 --> 02:23:06.479 happy to move out of gustavo's way 3255 02:23:06.479 --> 02:23:08.819 you can also use it to apologize for a 3256 02:23:08.819 --> 02:23:10.680 small mistake like bumping into someone 3257 02:23:10.680 --> 02:23:12.600 on the street or

speaks 3261 02:23:19.319 --> 02:23:22.100 excuse me 3262 02:23:27.000 --> 02:23:29.340 sorry about that 3263 02:23:29.340 --> 02:23:32.040 later Gustavo also used the word sorry 3264 02:23:32.040 --> 02:23:33.840 to apologize when he didn't understand 3265 02:23:33.840 --> 02:23:37.560 Henry's name which phrase did he use 3266 02:23:37.560 --> 02:23:39.660 I'm sorry 3267 02:23:39.660 --> 02:23:41.399 I'm sorry 3268 02:23:41.399 --> 02:23:43.439 this is a very common phrase in English 3269 02:23:43.439 --> 02:23:46.080 from many situations but here Gustavo 3270 02:23:46.080 --> 02:23:47.700 uses it to indicate he didn't understand 3271 02:23:47.700 --> 02:23:49.080 something 3272 02:23:49.080 --> 02:23:51.840 now you try say the line after Henry 3273 02:23:51.840 --> 02:23:53.340 speaks 3274 02:23:53.340 --> 02:23:56.780 I'm Henry Eddins 3275 02:24:01.379 --> 02:24:03.420 I'm sorry 3276 02:24:03.420 --> 02:24:05.100 because Gustavo did not understand 3277 02:24:05.100 --> 02:24:07.500 something he asked Henry to repeat what 3278 02:24:07.500 --> 02:24:10.020 he said to do this what polite question 3279 02:24:10.020 --> 02:24:11.939 did he use 3280 02:24:11.939 --> 02:24:15.000 can you say that again please 3281 02:24:15.000 --> 02:24:19.319 can you say that again please 3282 02:24:19.319 --> 02:24:21.660 in response English speakers will 3283 02:24:21.660 --> 02:24:23.399 usually repeat what they have said and 3284 02:24:23.399 --> 02:24:25.319 will use the same words 3285 02:24:25.319 --> 02:24:27.420 now you try ask the question after 3286 02:24:27.420 --> 02:24:30.300 Gustavo says I'm sorry 3287 02:24:30.300 --> 02:24:32.960 I'm sorry 3288 02:24:37.859 --> 02:24:40.979 can you say that again please 3289 02:24:40.979 --> 02:24:43.260 Gustavo also wanted Henry to speak more 3290 02:24:43.260 --> 02:24:46.920 slowly to do this what does he ask 3291 02:24:46.920 --> 02:24:49.140 a bit slowly 3292 02:24:49.140 --> 02:24:51.720 a bit slowly 3293 02:24:51.720 --> 02:24:54.060 this is not a complete sentence but has 3294 02:24:54.060 --> 02:24:56.399 a clear meaning when used after can you 3295 02:24:56.399 --> 02:24:57.840 say that again please 3296 02:24:57.840 --> 02:25:00.180 in response English speakers will slow 3297 02:25:00.180 --> 02:25:01.800 their speech down 3298 02:25:01.800 --> 02:25:03.120 you try 3299 02:25:03.120 --> 02:25:05.459 say the phrase after Gustavo says can 3300 02:25:05.459 --> 02:25:07.979 you say that again please 3301 02:25:07.979 --> 02:25:11.600 can you say that again please 3302 02:25:16.379 --> 02:25:18.660 a bit slowly 3303 02:25:18.660 --> 02:25:21.420 after Gustavo said Henry's name Henry 3304 02:25:21.420 --> 02:25:23.580 confirmed he said it correctly how did 3305 02:25:23.580 --> 02:25:25.080 he do that 3306 02:25:25.080 --> 02:25:27.000 that's it 3307 02:25:27.000 --> 02:25:28.920 that's it 3308 02:25:28.920 --> 02:25:31.800 this is like saying that's correct but 3309 02:25:31.800 --> 02:25:34.020 since the situation was friendly that's 3310 02:25:34.020 --> 02:25:36.300 it sounded more natural 3311 02:25:36.300 --> 02:25:39.180 now you try say the phrase after Gustavo 3312 02:25:39.180 --> 02:25:41.459 says Henry's name correctly 3313 02:25:41.459 --> 02:25:44.959 Henry Eddins 3314 02:25:49.740 --> 02:25:52.460 that's it 3315 02:25:53.100 --> 02:25:55.740 now the lesson Focus here's how to 3316 02:25:55.740 --> 02:25:57.240 introduce yourself 3317 02:25:57.240 --> 02:25:59.780 ready 3318 02:26:00.959 --> 02:26:02.879 do you remember how Gustavo introduced 3319 02:26:02.879 --> 02:26:04.680 himself 3320 02:26:04.680 --> 02:26:09.300 hi how do you do I'm Gustavo 3321 02:26:09.300 --> 02:26:11.640 when Gustavo introduced himself he 3322 02:26:11.640 --> 02:26:14.340 started with Hi and then used a set 3323 02:26:14.340 --> 02:26:16.260 phrase 3324 02:26:16.260 --> 02:26:18.899 how do you do 3325 02:26:18.899 --> 02:26:22.680 how do you do 3326 02:26:22.680 --> 02:26:25.080 this is a polite expression people often 3327 02:26:25.080 --> 02:26:27.300 use with an introduction it sounds like 3328 02:26:27.300 --> 02:26:29.280 a question but it has no particular 3329 02:26:29.280 --> 02:26:31.260 meaning and there's no expectation the 3330 02:26:31.260 --> 02:26:33.840 other person will try to answer it 3331 02:26:33.840 --> 02:26:36.479 next he says 3332 02:26:36.479 --> 02:26:38.760 I'm Gustavo 3333 02:26:38.760 --> 02:26:40.560 the first part of this sentence is a 3334 02:26:40.560 --> 02:26:44.040 contraction of two words I and am the am 3335 02:26:44.040 --> 02:26:46.319 here functions like an equal sign in 3336 02:26:46.319 --> 02:26:47.879 math 3337 02:26:47.879 --> 02:26:50.358 I'm 3338 02:26:50.640 --> 02:26:54.080 the next word in the sentence is a name 3339 02:26:54.080 --> 02:26:55.859 Gustavo 3340 02:26:55.859 --> 02:26:57.660 together it's 3341 02:26:57.660 --> 02:27:00.060 I'm Gustavo 3342 02:27:00.060 --> 02:27:02.399 the structure of the pattern is 3343 02:27:02.399 --> 02:27:04.920 hi how do you do I'm 3344 02:27:04.920 --> 02:27:07.439 plus your name 3345 02:27:07.439 --> 02:27:10.140 now you try imagine your name is John 3346 02:27:10.140 --> 02:27:16.100 say hi how do you do I'm John 3347 02:27:20.640 --> 02:27:24.600 hi how do you do I'm John 3348 02:27:24.600 --> 02:27:28.260 now imagine your name is eichel say hi 3349 02:27:28.260 --> 02:27:32.899 how do you do I'm Aiko 3350 02:27:37.500 --> 02:27:41.459 hi how do you do I'm eichel 3351 02:27:41.459 --> 02:27:44.898 now use your name 3352 02:27:49.260 --> 02:27:51.899 okay there are two additional things you 3353 02:27:51.899 --> 02:27:54.300 need to know first there's a shortcut 3354 02:27:54.300 --> 02:27:56.040 for giving your name 3355 02:27:56.040 --> 02:27:57.899 just drop the I'm from the final 3356 02:27:57.899 --> 02:28:00.359 sentence of the self-introduction 3357 02:28:00.359 --> 02:28:03.780 for example if Gustavo just said 3358 02:28:03.780 --> 02:28:07.319 hi how do you do Gustavo 3359 02:28:07.319 --> 02:28:09.240 Henry would have understood it was his 3360 02:28:09.240 --> 02:28:10.200 name 3361 02:28:10.200 --> 02:28:11.939 this would be especially clear if 3362 02:28:11.939 --> 02:28:13.740 Gustavo extended his hand for a 3363 02:28:13.740 --> 02:28:15.959 handshake while saying this 3364 02:28:15.959 --> 02:28:18.540 in very casual situations you can even 3365 02:28:18.540 --> 02:28:22.379 drop the hi and the how do you do 3366 02:28:22.379 --> 02:28:24.959 all that is left would be your name 3367 02:28:24.959 --> 02:28:27.240 the second thing you need to know is you 3368 02:28:27.240 --> 02:28:30.060 can use I'm with just the first name or 3369 02:28:30.060 --> 02:28:31.439 your first name and the last name 3370 02:28:31.439 --> 02:28:33.000 together 3371 02:28:33.000 --> 02:28:35.640 I'm Henry Eddins 3372 02:28:35.640 --> 02:28:38.520 Edens is Henry's family name 3373 02:28:38.520 --> 02:28:40.740 using both your first name and your last 3374 02:28:40.740 --> 02:28:42.899 name is a little more formal 3375 02:28:42.899 --> 02:28:45.420 it also gives you less privacy for 3376 02:28:45.420 --> 02:28:47.340 example if people know both your first 3377 02:28:47.340 --> 02:28:49.500 and last name they can find you on the 3378 02:28:49.500 --> 02:28:51.240 internet more easily 3379 02:28:51.240 --> 02:28:53.520 so it may be more common for strangers 3380 02:28:53.520 --> 02:28:55.260 to say just their first name than people 3381 02:28:55.260 --> 02:28:57.840 meeting in a more friendly environment 3382 02:28:57.840 --> 02:29:00.240 next you'll learn how to tell people to 3383 02:29:00.240 --> 02:29:02.160 call you by a nickname just like Henry 3384 02:29:02.160 --> 02:29:04.200 did in the scene 3385 02:29:04.200 --> 02:29:06.840 but please call me Hank 3386 02:29:06.840 --> 02:29:10.260 but please call me Hank 3387 02:29:10.260 --> 02:29:12.899 the first word in the sentence is 3388 02:29:12.899 --> 02:29:14.340 but 3389 02:29:14.340 --> 02:29:16.859 this word is not necessary but it
