00:01:00.180 --> 00:01:01.920 butter but she said the Butter's bitter 27 00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.080 oh that's a good one it's very bubbly 28 00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:06.119 Betty bought her bought

it faster Betty bought or 32 00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:12.060 bought some butter but she said the 33 00:01:12.060 --> 00:01:13.560 Butter's bitter butter Butter's bitter 34 00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:15.600

00:01:22.259 I don't know when to stop how much wood 38 00:01:22.259 --> 00:01:25.380 would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck 39 00:01:25.380 --> 00:01:28.319 could chuck wood the next tuck twister 40 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:30.240 is also a classic one about woodchucks 41 00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:33.000 woodchucks are real creatures that exist 42 00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:34.979 on the west coast of the United States 43 00:01:34.979 --> 00:01:37.619 primarily in Washington Oregon they're 44 00:01:37.619 --> 00:01:39.479 like beavers but they don't live in 45 00:01:39.479 --> 00:01:41.340 rivers they live in like forests and 46 00:01:41.340 --> 00:01:43.619 rocks the tongue twister is how much 47 00:01:43.619 --> 00:01:45.060 wood would a woodchuck chuck if a 48 00:01:45.060 --> 00:01:46.740 woodchuck could chuck wood how much wood 49 00:01:46.740 --> 00:01:48.060 would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck 50 00:01:48.060 --> 00:01:49.380 could chuck wood and then there's a 51 00:01:49.380 --> 00:01:51.420 common response to that which is it 52 00:01:51.420 --> 00:01:52.380 would chuck all the wood that a 53 00:01:52.380 --> 00:01:53.520 woodchuck could if a woodchuck could 54

soon bye 114 00:04:08.580 --> 00:04:11.159 oh my God I I want to like I want to 115 00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:12.599 have this job where I just sit at like 116 00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:13.980 my desk and I just think of that's 117 00:04:13.980 --> 00:04:15.239 probably what somebody does like they're 118 00:04:15.239 --> 00:04:16.620 bored at their job and they just think 119 00:04:16.620 --> 00:04:19.459 of these sorts of things 120 00:04:29.520 --> 00:04:31.680 hi everybody my name is Alicia welcome 121 00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:33.960 back to top words today we're going to 122 00:04:33.960 --> 00:04:36.839 talk about 10 ways to stop translating 123 00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:41.339 in your head let's get started identify 124 00:04:41.339 --> 00:04:44.339 objects around you in English the first 125 00:04:44.339 --> 00:04:46.860 way to stop translating in your head is 126 00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:49.979 to identify the objects around you in 127 00:04:49.979 --> 00:04:51.600 your target language so if you're 128 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.820 studying English that means you look at 129 00:04:53.820 --> 00:04:55.979 the objects around the room look at the 130 00:04:55.979 --> 00:04:59.040 things in your life don't think of them 131 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:01.560 in your native language first think of 132 00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:04.320 them in your target language first so if 133 00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:06.000 I look around the room I see a computer 134 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:08.580 I shouldn't think my native language 135 00:05:08.580 --> 00:05:10.680 word I should think my target language 136 00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.320 word so start with the items and the 137 00:05:13.320 --> 00:05:16.380 situations in your everyday life if I 138 00:05:16.380 --> 00:05:18.360 say computer in English maybe I should 139 00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.419 say computer in Japanese I should say 140 00:05:21.419 --> 00:05:24.120 not I don't know water in English I 141 00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:27.360 should say omizu in Japanese so start 142 00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:30.120 associating the words in your target 143 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:33.360 language with your everyday life now so 144 00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:35.400 if you're studying English that means 145 00:05:35.400 --> 00:05:37.979 start getting familiar with the things 146 00:05:37.979 --> 00:05:40.979 in your everyday life in English 147 00:05:40.979 --> 00:05:43.199 repeat phrases you hear native speakers 148 00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:46.440 use tip number two is to repeat the 149 00:05:46.440 --> 00:05:48.419 phrases that you hear native speakers 150 00:05:48.419 --> 00:05:51.240 use so if you're watching this channel 151 00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:54.779 for example or you're watching a TV show 152 00:05:54.779 --> 00:05:58.320 or a movie listen for the way that 153 00:05:58.320 --> 00:06:01.199 native speakers make those phrases if 154 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.060 you hear a phrase you have never heard 155 00:06:03.060 --> 00:06:05.279 before or you hear an interesting 156 00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:08.520 combination of words try to repeat them 157 00:06:08.520 --> 00:06:11.759 yourself don't just listen try to say 158 00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:13.680 them yourself if you're in a public 159 00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.660 space and it's difficult for you to do 160 00:06:15.660 --> 00:06:18.300 that fine practice in a place where you 161 00:06:18.300 --> 00:06:20.339 feel more comfortable maybe if you have 162 00:06:20.339 --> 00:06:22.620 some private space to practice just 163 00:06:22.620 --> 00:06:24.720 repeat them get your mouth used to 164 00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:26.699 saying the words the way that the 165 00:06:26.699 --> 00:06:29.699 speakers the native speakers do so if 166 00:06:29.699 --> 00:06:31.979 you never actually say words if you're 167 00:06:31.979 --> 00:06:34.500 only taking in if you're only listening 168 00:06:34.500 --> 00:06:36.660 and you're not actually producing the 169 00:06:36.660 --> 00:06:39.479 language it's it's kind of hard to to 170 00:06:39.479 --> 00:06:41.699 practice and to 171 00:06:41.699 --> 00:06:43.919 um to really hone your pronunciation to 172 00:06:43.919 --> 00:06:46.620 improve your pronunciation so when you 173 00:06:46.620 --> 00:06:48.960 listen to native speakers try to repeat 174 00:06:48.960 --> 00:06:51.479 after them so for example if you're 175 00:06:51.479 --> 00:06:53.520 studying English you can try to repeat 176 00:06:53.520 --> 00:06:55.919 after this video you can repeat after 177 00:06:55.919 --> 00:06:58.620 the things I'm saying because maybe I'm 178 00:06:58.620 --> 00:07:01.259 using an expression or I'm using a 179 00:07:01.259 --> 00:07:03.960 certain series of vocabulary words 180 00:07:03.960 --> 00:07:06.479 together the way a native speaker would 181 00:07:06.479 --> 00:07:09.900 and it's maybe a good idea to try to 182 00:07:09.900 --> 00:07:11.759 practice the ways that native speakers 183 00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:13.919 put their words together so try to 184 00:07:13.919 --> 00:07:16.919 repeat after native speakers especially 185 00:07:16.919 --> 00:07:19.199 when you're looking at media and you can 186 00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:20.699 do this when you're reading books too 187 00:07:20.699 --> 00:07:23.520 you can try to read out read out loud 188 00:07:23.520 --> 00:07:25.680 interesting lines of books that you find 189 00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:27.120 or something that may be as difficult 190 00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.120 for you very nice practice tip make a 191 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:32.220 situation where you can't escape into 192 00:07:32.220 --> 00:07:34.680 your native language make a situation 193 00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:36.539 where you can't escape into your native 194 00:07:36.539 --> 00:07:39.180 language essentially means immerse 195 00:07:39.180 --> 00:07:41.520 yourself of course going to the that 196 00:07:41.520 --> 00:07:44.340 country are going to a place where you 197 00:07:44.340 --> 00:07:46.800 can speak only that language is very 198 00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.599 difficult for some of you totally 199 00:07:48.599 --> 00:07:51.960 understand but if in your life you can 200 00:07:51.960 --> 00:07:54.599 create a situation in your library in 201 00:07:54.599 --> 00:07:57.599 your room in your house somewhere for 202 00:07:57.599 --> 00:08:00.000 just an hour or I don't know maybe a day 203 00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:01.500 I don't know what your schedule is like 204 00:08:01.500 --> 00:08:04.259 but if you can create a situation or 205 00:08:04.259 --> 00:08:06.840 create an environment where you have no 206 00:08:06.840 --> 00:08:10.380 choice but to use that language and you 207 00:08:10.380 --> 00:08:13.800 cannot Escape meaning you cannot go back 208 00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.319 to using your native language as a 209 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.180 crutch you can't use the native language 210 00:08:18.180 --> 00:08:21.840 at all it forces you to use the language 211 00:08:21.840 --> 00:08:24.419 that you're studying so of course if you 212 00:08:24.419 --> 00:08:26.400 are lucky enough to live in the country 213 00:08:26.400 --> 00:08:29.220 or to live in a place where people speak 214 00:08:29.220 --> 00:08:31.379 the language you're studying great but 215 00:08:31.379 --> 00:08:33.599 you have to go out and interact with 216 00:08:33.599 --> 00:08:35.760 people you have to put yourself in a 217 00:08:35.760 --> 00:08:38.219 place where you have no choice but to 218 00:08:38.219 --> 00:08:40.140 speak it's very hard and it's very scary 219 00:08:40.140 --> 00:08:42.839 and it's very embarrassing at first but 220 00:08:42.839 --> 00:08:45.540 if you take time to find places and to 221 00:08:45.540 --> 00:08:47.399 make environments that are comfortable 222 00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.200 for you where you feel comfortable 223 00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:51.420 making mistakes and asking questions 224 00:08:51.420 --> 00:08:53.760 it's very valuable for your learning 225 00:08:53.760 --> 00:08:55.440 process this is actually something that 226 00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:57.779 I did totally I totally did this my 227 00:08:57.779 --> 00:09:00.600 Japanese wasn't very good for a long 228 00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:02.820 time but then I started making friends 229 00:09:02.820 --> 00:09:06.179 who could not speak English actually I 230 00:09:06.179 --> 00:09:07.800 just did this through finding Hobbies 231 00:09:07.800 --> 00:09:10.500 there was a hobby that I had I joined a 232 00:09:10.500 --> 00:09:12.360 group I joined actually a school to 233 00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:14.279 where I could learn how to do that Hobby 234 00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:17.040 and everything was taught only in 235 00:09:17.040 --> 00:09:19.800 Japanese and the people in my class only 236 00:09:19.800 --> 00:09:22.200 spoke Japanese mostly and then maybe we 237 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.779 would go out for drinks and food late at 238 00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:26.339 night or on the weekends and everybody 239 00:09:26.339 --> 00:09:29.399 spoke only Japanese and if I couldn't 240 00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:32.458 communicate even simply in Japanese I 241 00:09:32.458 --> 00:09:34.380 had no hope of keeping that friendship 242 00:09:34.380 --> 00:09:36.899 together so it forced me to study it 243 00:09:36.899 --> 00:09:38.820 forced me to think about the words they 244 00:09:38.820 --> 00:09:41.700 were using and to try to learn those 245 00:09:41.700 --> 00:09:44.040 words those patterns as well as how to 246 00:09:44.040 --> 00:09:46.200 produce them naturally myself so I was 247 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.360 learning the vocabulary words the people 248 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:51.059 around me were using and learning how to 249 00:09:51.059 --> 00:09:53.100 apply them on my own that was only 250 00:09:53.100 --> 00:09:55.620 possible because I had no Escape in 251 00:09:55.620 --> 00:09:58.800 those situations so try to do that even 252 00:09:58.800 --> 00:10:00.540 if you can do it yourself in your house 253 00:10:00.540 --> 00:10:02.700 it's super helpful I think 254 00:10:02.700 --> 00:10:04.980 watch TV and movies in your target 255 00:10:04.980 --> 00:10:07.200 language without subtitles 256 00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.839 tip number four is to watch TV and 257 00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:12.320 movies in your target language without 258 00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:15.420 subtitles without subtitles so I think 259 00:10:15.420 --> 00:10:18.839 that watching uh with subtitles can be 260 00:10:18.839 --> 00:10:20.179 very beneficial 261 00:10:20.179 --> 00:10:23.640 so if I'm watching something or if you 262 00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:25.440 want to watch something with subtitles 263 00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.920 on great but I sometimes find that I can 264 00:10:28.920 --> 00:10:31.380 in my case I I think too much about 265 00:10:31.380 --> 00:10:33.899 reading the subtitles and I forget to 266 00:10:33.899 --> 00:10:36.660 listen so maybe if you've seen a movie 267 00:10:36.660 --> 00:10:40.260 in your target language a few times with 268 00:10:40.260 --> 00:10:42.899 the subtitles on try turning the 269 00:10:42.899 --> 00:10:46.078 subtitles off and think about the like 270 00:10:46.078 --> 00:10:47.760 character's body language the words 271 00:10:47.760 --> 00:10:50.339 they're using you can always look that 272 00:10:50.339 --> 00:10:52.320 up later look up the you know the words 273 00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.540 you don't know in a dictionary but try 274 00:10:54.540 --> 00:10:56.519 to do it where you're focusing 275 00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:59.458 completely on the way that people are 276 00:10:59.458 --> 00:11:01.860 using their words try not to use the 277 00:11:01.860 --> 00:11:03.480 subtitles so 278 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:05.040 um kind of play around with it a little 279 00:11:05.040 --> 00:11:06.660 bit if there's a word that's difficult 280 00:11:06.660 --> 00:11:08.880 for you to here you can actually turn on 281 00:11:08.880 --> 00:11:11.640 the subtitles in like the in the native 282 00:11:11.640 --> 00:11:14.399 language of the movie as well that's 283 00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:16.920 something that I've done like if uh like 284 00:11:16.920 --> 00:11:18.899 if I wanted to study Japanese it's very 285 00:11:18.899 --> 00:11:21.958 useful when the actual words spoken in 286 00:11:21.958 --> 00:11:24.480 Japanese appear on the screen sometimes 287 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:27.958 it's easier for me to catch a word if I 288 00:11:27.958 --> 00:11:30.179 see it visually and I hear it at the 289 00:11:30.179 --> 00:11:33.320 same time so another way to kind of 290 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:37.140 explore how you can use TV and movies is 291 00:11:37.140 --> 00:11:39.240 to actually turn on the closed captions 292 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:40.980 like the the 293 00:11:40.980 --> 00:11:43.380 um the words on the screen in the native 294 00:11:43.380 --> 00:11:46.260 language of the movie so uh so this is 295 00:11:46.260 --> 00:11:48.420 sort of two points in one so one watch 296 00:11:48.420 --> 00:11:50.279 movies without subtitles meaning 297 00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:52.740 subtitles in your native language in 298 00:11:52.740 --> 00:11:56.040 hint too is to watch movies with closed 299 00:11:56.040 --> 00:11:58.200 captioning on but the closed captioning 300 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:00.540 is in your target language not in your 301 00:12:00.540 --> 00:12:02.458 native language so you can try those two 302 00:12:02.458 --> 00:12:05.458 things with TV and with movies 303 00:12:05.458 --> 00:12:08.640 don't bring a dictionary to your lesson 304 00:12:08.640 --> 00:12:10.800 number five is don't bring a dictionary 305 00:12:10.800 --> 00:12:14.100 to your lesson okay so give me a second 306 00:12:14.100 --> 00:12:16.200 here so I understand the dictionaries 307 00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:18.779 especially electronic dictionaries we 308 00:12:18.779 --> 00:12:20.458 have them on our phones now are very 309 00:12:20.458 --> 00:12:22.260 very convenient 310 00:12:22.260 --> 00:12:23.940 um of course it's important to use them 311 00:12:23.940 --> 00:12:25.800 and it's they're a great resource to 312 00:12:25.800 --> 00:12:28.740 have however one thing that really 313 00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:32.700 bothers me and that I think is 314 00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:34.860 detrimental it's not helpful for 315 00:12:34.860 --> 00:12:37.860 students is when students are in a 316 00:12:37.860 --> 00:12:39.179 lesson and they're practicing 317 00:12:39.179 --> 00:12:42.120 conversation and they reach a point in 318 00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.220 the conversation where they don't know 319 00:12:44.220 --> 00:12:46.139 the word they want to use they know it 320 00:12:46.139 --> 00:12:48.120 in their native language and they don't 321 00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:49.860 know how to say it in their target 322 00:12:49.860 --> 00:12:52.019 language they pull out their dictionary 323 00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:54.660 they say to this the person listening to 324 00:12:54.660 --> 00:12:56.700 them their practice partner in their 325 00:12:56.700 --> 00:12:58.620 lesson where they have a limited period 326 00:12:58.620 --> 00:13:01.440 of time just a moment and then they look 327 00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:03.899 it up on their phone and it takes a few 328 00:13:03.899 --> 00:13:06.179 seconds the flow of the conversation 329 00:13:06.179 --> 00:13:09.720 stops and then they say a word and I was 330 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:13.139 like whoa no that's not you don't have 331 00:13:13.139 --> 00:13:15.779 that ability you don't have the ability 332 00:13:15.779 --> 00:13:18.059 to do that in a conversation with a 333 00:13:18.059 --> 00:13:20.458 native speaker most people like if you 334 00:13:20.458 --> 00:13:22.139 go to a bank and try to open a bank 335 00:13:22.139 --> 00:13:23.700 account are you really going to pull out 336 00:13:23.700 --> 00:13:26.660 your dictionary and sit there and try to 337 00:13:26.660 --> 00:13:28.920 communicate you know just a moment just 338 00:13:28.920 --> 00:13:31.440 a moment as you look up each word you 339 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:34.078 don't know no or if you do that's not a 340 00:13:34.078 --> 00:13:38.040 real conversation so instead try using a 341 00:13:38.040 --> 00:13:40.559 different strategy by that I mean if you 342 00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:42.360 find a word you don't know in 343 00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:45.480 conversation explain the word to your 344 00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:47.880 conversation partner maybe they know the 345 00:13:47.880 --> 00:13:49.380 word if you're speaking with a native 346 00:13:49.380 --> 00:13:51.240 speaker this is a chance for them to 347 00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:53.760 teach you a word I find that when people 348 00:13:53.760 --> 00:13:56.639 take the time to teach me a word I 349 00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:58.980 remember the word much better than just 350 00:13:58.980 --> 00:14:01.679 looking it up on my dictionary so try to 351 00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:03.540 resist maybe you can bring a dictionary 352 00:14:03.540 --> 00:14:05.880 to your lesson but don't use it or try 353 00:14:05.880 --> 00:14:08.160 not to use it in your conversation 354 00:14:08.160 --> 00:14:10.559 practice this it's just it destroys the 355 00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:12.839 flow of a conversation so instead 356 00:14:12.839 --> 00:14:15.480 practice the skill of describing the 357 00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.059 vocabulary word you want to use and 358 00:14:18.059 --> 00:14:20.639 learn how to ask the meaning of a word 359 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:23.399 or learn how to ask for a vocabulary 360 00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:25.920 word from your partner so you can use an 361 00:14:25.920 --> 00:14:27.899 expression like ah what's the word that 362 00:14:27.899 --> 00:14:30.240 means blah blah blah or 363 00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:32.040 um you know it's this thing that does 364 00:14:32.040 --> 00:14:33.959 this and this and this so this is an 365 00:14:33.959 --> 00:14:35.820 opportunity for you to describe 366 00:14:35.820 --> 00:14:38.519 characteristics of something or find a 367 00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:40.500 different way you can use your body 368 00:14:40.500 --> 00:14:43.260 language you can use whatever you have a 369 00:14:43.260 --> 00:14:45.839 lot of tools but try not to use a 370 00:14:45.839 --> 00:14:47.519 dictionary in a conversation because 371 00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:49.500 it's not realistic 372 00:14:49.500 --> 00:14:52.620 train responses to common questions 373 00:14:52.620 --> 00:14:54.959 number six is a quick one I think number 374 00:14:54.959 --> 00:14:57.360 six hint number six I have is just to 375 00:14:57.360 --> 00:14:59.459 train responses to common questions 376 00:14:59.459 --> 00:15:02.100 train responses to common questions so 377 00:15:02.100 --> 00:15:04.620 for example a very common question in 378 00:15:04.620 --> 00:15:06.959 English is hey how are you you should 379 00:15:06.959 --> 00:15:09.060 know how to answer this question just 380 00:15:09.060 --> 00:15:11.519 have a default response hey how are you 381 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:15.480 I'm good like if it takes you a long 382 00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:18.120 time to answer the question hey how are 383 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:18.839 you 384 00:15:18.839 --> 00:15:21.420 you need to practice I think that's a 385 00:15:21.420 --> 00:15:23.880 pretty good uh a pretty good indicator 386 00:15:23.880 --> 00:15:26.579 so for example sometimes I ask students 387 00:15:26.579 --> 00:15:28.980 a question like that they they haven't 388 00:15:28.980 --> 00:15:32.399 quite gotten the idea of how to respond 389 00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:35.040 just yet they they're not so quick at 390 00:15:35.040 --> 00:15:37.500 responding I say uh hey how are you and 391 00:15:37.500 --> 00:15:40.019 they say yes and then they think and 392 00:15:40.019 --> 00:15:43.680 they go I'm uh I'm a good and it's like 393 00:15:43.680 --> 00:15:46.620 that's a very common question so think 394 00:15:46.620 --> 00:15:49.199 about just a default response that you 395 00:15:49.199 --> 00:15:51.420 can spit out that you can quickly say if 396 00:15:51.420 --> 00:15:53.459 it's how was your weekend or hey what's 397 00:15:53.459 --> 00:15:55.560 up or what do you want to do for dinner 398 00:15:55.560 --> 00:15:58.980 tonight think about like just a handful 399 00:15:58.980 --> 00:16:01.860 meaning just a few responses to those 400 00:16:01.860 --> 00:16:04.199 questions and train them quickly just 401 00:16:04.199 --> 00:16:06.540 how are you I'm good how are you I'm 402 00:16:06.540 --> 00:16:09.060 okay how are you not bad there's three 403 00:16:09.060 --> 00:16:13.320 so it's just training responses to those 404 00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:15.540 questions there's no reason to be 405 00:16:15.540 --> 00:16:18.060 surprised by a question like how are you 406 00:16:18.060 --> 00:16:20.639 like that's a very common question so 407 00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:22.860 for those common questions train 408 00:16:22.860 --> 00:16:24.959 responses to that we've got a bunch of 409 00:16:24.959 --> 00:16:27.360 videos especially beginner level videos 410 00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:30.240 for some example responses you can do so 411 00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:31.560 don't get 412 00:16:31.560 --> 00:16:33.779 stuck with these little questions just 413 00:16:33.779 --> 00:16:35.820 train a few responses practice a few 414 00:16:35.820 --> 00:16:37.800 responses till they feel natural to you 415 00:16:37.800 --> 00:16:39.899 it'll save you time and it'll help the 416 00:16:39.899 --> 00:16:41.940 person asking the question to to move 417 00:16:41.940 --> 00:16:44.880 forward in the conversation yay 418 00:16:44.880 --> 00:16:47.220 study with materials that don't provide 419 00:16:47.220 --> 00:16:48.899 a translation 420 00:16:48.899 --> 00:16:51.839 the next tip is to study with materials 421 00:16:51.839 --> 00:16:54.720 that don't provide a translation so by 422 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.180 this I mean if you're using worksheets 423 00:16:57.180 --> 00:17:00.240 and or some kind of textbook or whatever 424 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:03.779 and it has your target language the 425 00:17:03.779 --> 00:17:06.059 language you're studying and it has your 426 00:17:06.059 --> 00:17:08.400 native language next to it while this 427 00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:11.880 can be useful I feel that if you can 428 00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.059 studying your materials only in your 429 00:17:15.059 --> 00:17:17.280 target language and then simplified 430 00:17:17.280 --> 00:17:20.280 explanations for more detailed points 431 00:17:20.280 --> 00:17:23.040 also in your target language can be a 432 00:17:23.040 --> 00:17:25.859 little bit better so I don't want to say 433 00:17:25.859 --> 00:17:27.780 like you should only study things in 434 00:17:27.780 --> 00:17:29.640 your target language and nothing from 435 00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:31.260 your native language because of course 436 00:17:31.260 --> 00:17:33.900 like it can be helpful sometimes to look 437 00:17:33.900 --> 00:17:35.940 up a word or to understand a grammar 438 00:17:35.940 --> 00:17:38.580 point in your native language but where 439 00:17:38.580 --> 00:17:41.160 possible if you can find something that 440 00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:44.340 provides simplified explanations in your 441 00:17:44.340 --> 00:17:46.020 target language it can be really really 442 00:17:46.020 --> 00:17:48.240 helpful because again you're thinking 443 00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:50.220 you're learning to think on like a 444 00:17:50.220 --> 00:17:53.160 simpler on a more basic level about the 445 00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:55.320 language you're studying in the language 446 00:17:55.320 --> 00:17:57.179 that you're studying so this can be 447 00:17:57.179 --> 00:17:59.039 really really good so finding some 448 00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:01.380 materials to use where there's no 449 00:18:01.380 --> 00:18:04.500 translation maybe you can practice 450 00:18:04.500 --> 00:18:06.359 um of course with with books and with 451 00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:08.760 written materials but also with like 452 00:18:08.760 --> 00:18:11.640 video materials as well so there are a 453 00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:14.940 variety of different ways that you can 454 00:18:14.940 --> 00:18:17.640 um find materials in your target 455 00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:21.299 language like in video and TV so some 456 00:18:21.299 --> 00:18:22.980 things to think about there are the 457 00:18:22.980 --> 00:18:25.200 level of vocabulary words people are 458 00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:26.880 using in the media content you're 459 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.580 watching who the media content is 460 00:18:29.580 --> 00:18:31.559 intended for children young adults 461 00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.559 adults the speed at which the speaker is 462 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:36.660 talking so like I have the ability to 463 00:18:36.660 --> 00:18:40.380 change the level of difficulty of videos 464 00:18:40.380 --> 00:18:42.359 based on the rate of speech the 465 00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:44.580 vocabulary words that I use and how many 466 00:18:44.580 --> 00:18:46.679 like idioms and things I use so I could 467 00:18:46.679 --> 00:18:48.299 make a video very difficult we could 468 00:18:48.299 --> 00:18:50.160 make a very like a very difficult video 469 00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:53.460 series by leveling up our vocabulary 470 00:18:53.460 --> 00:18:56.820 user by speaking very quickly or as you 471 00:18:56.820 --> 00:18:58.619 might see in like our English in three 472 00:18:58.619 --> 00:19:01.619 minutes series we can also use very 473 00:19:01.619 --> 00:19:04.260 simple vocabulary and speak at a low 474 00:19:04.260 --> 00:19:06.359 rate of speech so maybe right now this 475 00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:08.940 is a very intermediate level video so 476 00:19:08.940 --> 00:19:11.580 please think about that so not just for 477 00:19:11.580 --> 00:19:13.919 written materials but also for your 478 00:19:13.919 --> 00:19:16.340 audio and visual materials think about 479 00:19:16.340 --> 00:19:19.080 who your audience is the level of the 480 00:19:19.080 --> 00:19:21.419 material and so on it can be really fun 481 00:19:21.419 --> 00:19:23.900 and it can be helpful to think about 482 00:19:23.900 --> 00:19:26.520 your your target language in your target 483 00:19:26.520 --> 00:19:29.220 language all right we're almost done 484 00:19:29.220 --> 00:19:31.500 study phrases in addition to single 485 00:19:31.500 --> 00:19:32.820 vocabulary 486 00:19:32.820 --> 00:19:35.700 the next tip is study phrases in 487 00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:38.280 addition to single vocabulary words so 488 00:19:38.280 --> 00:19:40.679 yes of course vocabulary is important 489 00:19:40.679 --> 00:19:44.100 but I find it personally very very 490 00:19:44.100 --> 00:19:47.640 useful to look at how a vocabulary word 491 00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:51.419 is used in a phrase because sometimes 492 00:19:51.419 --> 00:19:54.179 using it in a phrase helps you 493 00:19:54.179 --> 00:19:56.820 understand the Nuance of that vocabulary 494 00:19:56.820 --> 00:20:00.179 word really really well so if I like a 495 00:20:00.179 --> 00:20:02.119 word like crazy for example in English 496 00:20:02.119 --> 00:20:04.679 depending on the situation where the 497 00:20:04.679 --> 00:20:06.840 word crazy is used it could mean 498 00:20:06.840 --> 00:20:09.240 something different it could mean like a 499 00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:11.940 person who is mentally confused or mixed 500 00:20:11.940 --> 00:20:13.559 up it could also mean something really 501 00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:16.140 good it can mean something really bad so 502 00:20:16.140 --> 00:20:18.960 if we look only at the word crazy it's 503 00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:21.600 quite difficult to understand really the 504 00:20:21.600 --> 00:20:23.940 meaning of the word but if you look at 505 00:20:23.940 --> 00:20:26.640 the way the word is used in a phrase you 506 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.100 can get a lot more information so take a 507 00:20:29.100 --> 00:20:31.140 look at the way people use words in 508 00:20:31.140 --> 00:20:34.080 phrases not just as single vocabulary 509 00:20:34.080 --> 00:20:36.119 words you can learn a lot more that way 510 00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:37.500 I think 511 00:20:37.500 --> 00:20:39.539 do your daily activities in English 512 00:20:39.539 --> 00:20:41.100 where possible 513 00:20:41.100 --> 00:20:43.080 the next tip is to do your daily 514 00:20:43.080 --> 00:20:45.960 activities in your target language so if 515 00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:47.520 you're studying English that means try 516 00:20:47.520 --> 00:20:49.740 to do some daily activities in English 517 00:20:49.740 --> 00:20:52.320 if possible so this can be very very 518 00:20:52.320 --> 00:20:54.419 boring stuff but just think about it 519 00:20:54.419 --> 00:20:56.640 when you're doing the activity so like 520 00:20:56.640 --> 00:20:58.880 right now I'm filming a video for 521 00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:01.980 englishclass101.com or I'm going to work 522 00:21:01.980 --> 00:21:04.200 I'm cooking breakfast I'm doing the 523 00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:06.600 laundry what do I have to do tomorrow so 524 00:21:06.600 --> 00:21:09.960 try thinking about your everyday life in 525 00:21:09.960 --> 00:21:12.299 English if you're studying English try 526 00:21:12.299 --> 00:21:14.340 thinking about your everyday activities 527 00:21:14.340 --> 00:21:16.559 the people that you meet what are you 528 00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:18.539 doing so this is a way to help you 529 00:21:18.539 --> 00:21:20.700 practice your verbs so if you don't know 530 00:21:20.700 --> 00:21:22.440 if you're I don't know you're doing 531 00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:24.000 something at work and you're like oh my 532 00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:26.039 gosh how do I explain the what's the 533 00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:29.220 verb for you know a picture like I want 534 00:21:29.220 --> 00:21:31.080 to blah blah blah a picture what's the 535 00:21:31.080 --> 00:21:33.539 word you can check a dictionary at that 536 00:21:33.539 --> 00:21:35.820 point and go oh it's draw I I need to 537 00:21:35.820 --> 00:21:38.640 use the verb draw for draw a picture so 538 00:21:38.640 --> 00:21:41.039 you can find these little gaps in your 539 00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:43.380 everyday life these little gaps in your 540 00:21:43.380 --> 00:21:46.080 knowledge if you think about your 541 00:21:46.080 --> 00:21:47.820 everyday activities in your target 542 00:21:47.820 --> 00:21:49.559 language if you don't think about it in 543 00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:51.240 your target language you might not 544 00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:53.520 realize you have vocabulary gaps or 545 00:21:53.520 --> 00:21:55.500 phrase gaps here and there so this is a 546 00:21:55.500 --> 00:21:57.179 really good and kind of funny actually 547 00:21:57.179 --> 00:22:00.659 way to study use a Learner's Dictionary 548 00:22:00.659 --> 00:22:04.200 for new words the last tip is to use a 549 00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:06.780 Learner's Dictionary for new words so in 550 00:22:06.780 --> 00:22:08.820 English there are Learners dictionaries 551 00:22:08.820 --> 00:22:11.400 available in English so my favorite my 552 00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:13.039 personal favorite is Merriam-Webster 553 00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:15.600 Merriam-Webster is a fantastic 554 00:22:15.600 --> 00:22:17.640 dictionary resource they're so 555 00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:19.799 interesting and they have tons of like 556 00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:22.679 historical information I really do just 557 00:22:22.679 --> 00:22:24.780 sit and like read things on the 558 00:22:24.780 --> 00:22:28.859 dictionary page lately it's true but 559 00:22:28.859 --> 00:22:30.240 um of course there's a definition 560 00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:32.220 there's a meaning for Words there are 561 00:22:32.220 --> 00:22:34.159 example sentences for words but 562 00:22:34.159 --> 00:22:36.900 Merriam-Webster also has what's called a 563 00:22:36.900 --> 00:22:39.000 Learner's Dictionary if you find a word 564 00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:40.740 that you don't recognize you can check 565 00:22:40.740 --> 00:22:43.440 it uh in a dictionary in a Learner's 566 00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:46.020 Dictionary and it gives you a simplified 567 00:22:46.020 --> 00:22:48.900 a simple explanation in simple English 568 00:22:48.900 --> 00:22:52.260 of that word so instead of checking it 569 00:22:52.260 --> 00:22:54.179 in your native language you can check it 570 00:22:54.179 --> 00:22:56.580 in your target language so again this 571 00:22:56.580 --> 00:22:59.940 helps you to understand the word that 572 00:22:59.940 --> 00:23:02.640 you are that you're focused on but you 573 00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:05.460 understand it from the language you're 574 00:23:05.460 --> 00:23:07.080 studying not from your native language 575 00:23:07.080 --> 00:23:09.480 so using a Learner's Dictionary can be 576 00:23:09.480 --> 00:23:11.880 really really useful as well all right 577 00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:14.880 so those are 10 tips those are 10 tips 578 00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:17.220 to help you stop translating in your 579 00:23:17.220 --> 00:23:19.679 head I know it's very difficult but it's 580 00:23:19.679 --> 00:23:21.780 it takes time and it takes practice and 581 00:23:21.780 --> 00:23:23.820 I hope that these are a few strategies 582 00:23:23.820 --> 00:23:26.580 that can help you as you study any 583 00:23:26.580 --> 00:23:28.080 language of course this is an English 584

learning just about 587 00:23:33.059 --> 00:23:35.460 any language really so I hope those are 588 00:23:35.460 --> 00:23:37.619 useful for you if you have tried these 589 00:23:37.619 --> 00:23:39.240

sentence I think I'm a 668 00:27:07.500 --> 00:27:10.919 good fit for the company and its goals 669 00:27:10.919 --> 00:27:12.900 why should we hire you 670 00:27:12.900 --> 00:27:15.240 the next interview question is why 671 00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:17.640 should we hire you why should we hire 672 00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:20.820 you so this is your opportunity to 673 00:27:20.820 --> 00:27:24.240 explain why you feel you are the best 674 00:27:24.240 --> 00:27:27.119 candidate for the job so if you have any 675 00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:29.460 special qualifications you have 676 00:27:29.460 --> 00:27:31.500 certifications you have specific 677 00:27:31.500 --> 00:27:34.080 experience you have a specific goal in 678 00:27:34.080 --> 00:27:36.600 mind this is the kind of question you 679 00:27:36.600 --> 00:27:39.359 can share that information in response 680 00:27:39.359 --> 00:27:42.659 to why should we hire you because I can 681 00:27:42.659 --> 00:27:45.179 speak six different languages and I know 682 00:27:45.179 --> 00:27:48.779 how to create a website in 10 minutes I 683 00:27:48.779 --> 00:27:51.659 don't know so if you have some kind of 684 00:27:51.659 --> 00:27:53.880 special qualifications you can share 685 00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:56.460 those qualifications in response to this 686 00:27:56.460 --> 00:27:58.980 question in another example sentence I'm 687 00:27:58.980 --> 00:28:01.260 a goal-oriented person who likes to work 688 00:28:01.260 --> 00:28:03.299 at a fast pace 689 00:28:03.299 --> 00:28:05.279 what do you consider your strengths and 690 00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:06.480 weaknesses 691 00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:08.640 the next question is a common question 692 00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:11.700 what do you consider your strengths and 693 00:28:11.700 --> 00:28:13.919 weaknesses what do you consider your 694 00:28:13.919 --> 00:28:16.320 strengths and weaknesses or what are 695 00:28:16.320 --> 00:28:18.359 your strengths and weaknesses so 696 00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:20.760 strengths means strong points things you 697 00:28:20.760 --> 00:28:23.039 are good at weaknesses is your weak 698 00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:24.960 points things you are not very good at 699 00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:27.900 so you could you should be honest to a 700 00:28:27.900 --> 00:28:30.539 degree but be careful so this should be 701 00:28:30.539 --> 00:28:33.059 in a professional setting keep that in 702 00:28:33.059 --> 00:28:35.460 mind it's a professional setting if you 703 00:28:35.460 --> 00:28:37.200 want to talk about your weaknesses don't 704 00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:39.779 say like uh I eat too much chocolate or 705 00:28:39.779 --> 00:28:41.760 don't say like I love sleeping or 706 00:28:41.760 --> 00:28:44.039 whatever talk about your professional 707 00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:45.720 strengths and your professional 708 00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:48.179 weaknesses and also with your weaknesses 709 00:28:48.179 --> 00:28:50.279 it would be a good idea to talk about 710 00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:53.640 how you improve those weaknesses or how 711 00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:55.860 you work with your team members or work 712 00:28:55.860 --> 00:29:00.000 in a company to try to reduce the effect 713 00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:02.760 of those weaknesses so for example I'm 714 00:29:02.760 --> 00:29:05.880 very detail-oriented but I often take on 715 00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:08.460 too much at one time 716 00:29:08.460 --> 00:29:10.500 um so like in my case that's the case 717 00:29:10.500 --> 00:29:12.720 like I'm very detail oriented but I 718 00:29:12.720 --> 00:29:15.360 often take on too much so do too many 719 00:29:15.360 --> 00:29:18.299 things at one time so I could explain 720 00:29:18.299 --> 00:29:21.720 okay so I'm very detail oriented but uh 721 00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:24.000 if I'm trying to take on too much I TR 722 00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:26.460 maybe I say I communicate with my 723 00:29:26.460 --> 00:29:28.380 co-workers about what should be 724 00:29:28.380 --> 00:29:31.260 prioritized and that helps me organize 725 00:29:31.260 --> 00:29:33.360 my time better so when you introduce 726 00:29:33.360 --> 00:29:35.820 your weakness talk about the ways you 727 00:29:35.820 --> 00:29:38.399 kind of you try to reduce the effect of 728 00:29:38.399 --> 00:29:40.380 that weakness that can be one technique 729 00:29:40.380 --> 00:29:42.240 so your good points and your bad points 730 00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:43.500 in this question 731 00:29:43.500 --> 00:29:45.779 tell me about a time when you overcame a 732 00:29:45.779 --> 00:29:48.600 challenge at work some interviewers may 733 00:29:48.600 --> 00:29:51.120 ask this question tell me about a time 734 00:29:51.120 --> 00:29:53.640 when you overcame a challenge at work so 735 00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:55.140 it's not really a question they're 736 00:29:55.140 --> 00:29:57.659 asking you to tell a story so tell me 737 00:29:57.659 --> 00:29:59.580 about a time when you overcame a 738 00:29:59.580 --> 00:30:01.559 challenge at work so they want to hear 739 00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:03.779 an example from your professional 740 00:30:03.779 --> 00:30:06.600 experience about how you solved a 741 00:30:06.600 --> 00:30:08.940 problem what did you do to solve a 742 00:30:08.940 --> 00:30:11.760 problem at work they want to know what 743 00:30:11.760 --> 00:30:13.980 kind of problem it was and how you 744 00:30:13.980 --> 00:30:16.020 approach the problem and the result of 745 00:30:16.020 --> 00:30:18.899 that problem so you could say for 746 00:30:18.899 --> 00:30:21.360 example our company party was scheduled 747 00:30:21.360 --> 00:30:24.000 for the day before Christmas but the 748 00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.399 restaurant exploded and I had to find a 749 00:30:26.399 --> 00:30:28.620 new place to have the party I don't know 750 00:30:28.620 --> 00:30:31.860 that's not of course a crazy example but 751 00:30:31.860 --> 00:30:34.919 giving your employer an idea of how you 752 00:30:34.919 --> 00:30:36.840 solve problems and maybe the kind of 753 00:30:36.840 --> 00:30:38.820 mental state you have when you solve the 754 00:30:38.820 --> 00:30:41.100 problems can be helpful in making a 755 00:30:41.100 --> 00:30:43.860 hiring decision so in an example when I 756 00:30:43.860 --> 00:30:45.899 was having trouble communicating with a 757 00:30:45.899 --> 00:30:48.600 client I reached out to a co-worker for 758 00:30:48.600 --> 00:30:49.799 support 759 00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:52.380 what are your career goals the next 760 00:30:52.380 --> 00:30:55.140 question is what are your career goals 761 00:30:55.140 --> 00:30:58.200 your career goals so not necessarily in 762 00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:00.480 this company but in your career overall 763 00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.240 in the interview it's probably a good 764 00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:06.419 idea to include the company where you 765 00:31:06.419 --> 00:31:08.520 are currently interviewing in your 766 00:31:08.520 --> 00:31:11.880 career goals but keep in mind like you 767 00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:14.760 should be explaining a goal or you 768 00:31:14.760 --> 00:31:19.140 should be sharing a goal that is in line 769 00:31:19.140 --> 00:31:22.080 with the company's work so if your goal 770 00:31:22.080 --> 00:31:24.779 is to open a cupcake shop but you're 771 00:31:24.779 --> 00:31:27.299 interviewing for like an I.T job where 772 00:31:27.299 --> 00:31:29.960 you're going to be like I don't know 773 00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:32.700 installing Windows 10 on people's 774 00:31:32.700 --> 00:31:34.860 computers maybe this doesn't really 775 00:31:34.860 --> 00:31:37.260 match so make sure that your career goal 776 00:31:37.260 --> 00:31:39.000 and the job you're interviewing for 777 00:31:39.000 --> 00:31:41.279 Align those two should be kind of 778 00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:43.860 aligned it'll help your interviewer and 779 00:31:43.860 --> 00:31:46.320 it will help you I think so in an 780 00:31:46.320 --> 00:31:48.899 example sentence I want to create a 781 00:31:48.899 --> 00:31:51.720 global advertising campaign strategy so 782 00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:52.799 maybe you're interviewing for a 783 00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:54.600 marketing job for example you could say 784 00:31:54.600 --> 00:31:56.340 that's your career goal I would love to 785 00:31:56.340 --> 00:31:58.559 design a global marketing campaign 786 00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:01.200 strategy for example where do you see 787 00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:03.600 yourself in five years the next question 788 00:32:03.600 --> 00:32:05.940 a very common one where do you see 789 00:32:05.940 --> 00:32:08.640 yourself in five years where do you see 790 00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:10.200 yourself in five years this question 791 00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:13.440 means after five years five years from 792 00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:16.260 this point in time what is your vision 793 00:32:16.260 --> 00:32:19.279 for you what is your vision of your self 794 00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:22.620 professionally so what do you want to 795 00:32:22.620 --> 00:32:25.559 have achieved after five years so a good 796 00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:27.860 tip for this question is to explain 797 00:32:27.860 --> 00:32:30.779 where you will be having made 798 00:32:30.779 --> 00:32:33.600 contributions to the company where you 799 00:32:33.600 --> 00:32:35.399 are interviewing so if I'm interviewing 800 00:32:35.399 --> 00:32:37.620 at Apple and apple says where do you see 801 00:32:37.620 --> 00:32:39.480 yourself in five years Alicia and I say 802 00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:41.880 I see myself at Microsoft like that 803 00:32:41.880 --> 00:32:46.260 sounds really bad so try to share your 804 00:32:46.260 --> 00:32:48.360 your goals for yourself in a five-year 805 00:32:48.360 --> 00:32:51.179 period but again try to align them with 806 00:32:51.179 --> 00:32:52.919 the company where you're interviewing 807 00:32:52.919 --> 00:32:55.200 and explain like how you plan to 808 00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:57.360 contribute to the company and develop 809 00:32:57.360 --> 00:32:59.520 yourself professionally that can be a 810 00:32:59.520 --> 00:33:01.200 really good way to to answer this 811 00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:03.659 question for example I see myself in a 812 00:33:03.659 --> 00:33:05.520 managerial position in this company 813 00:33:05.520 --> 00:33:07.860 working on multiple projects for 814 00:33:07.860 --> 00:33:10.200 multiple markets 815 00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:12.539 why do you want to work here the next 816 00:33:12.539 --> 00:33:14.340 question is why do you want to work here 817 00:33:14.340 --> 00:33:16.500 why do you want to work here so similar 818 00:33:16.500 --> 00:33:18.539 to why are you interested in this 819 00:33:18.539 --> 00:33:20.940 position that one's like that question 820 00:33:20.940 --> 00:33:22.980 is very much about this job in 821 00:33:22.980 --> 00:33:25.200 particular but the question why do you 822 00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:26.880 want to work here means why do you want 823 00:33:26.880 --> 00:33:28.799 to work in this company like in this 824 00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:31.140 place specifically so share something 825 00:33:31.140 --> 00:33:33.720 about the company that you like or share 826 00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:36.840 something some reason the company is 827 00:33:36.840 --> 00:33:39.360 attractive to you as a candidate so 828 00:33:39.360 --> 00:33:41.220 maybe it's the location or maybe it's 829 00:33:41.220 --> 00:33:44.940 the ability to work overseas or maybe 830 00:33:44.940 --> 00:33:46.799 it's an international environment or 831 00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:48.600 maybe you can use your English skills 832 00:33:48.600 --> 00:33:51.299 some reason why you're interested in 833 00:33:51.299 --> 00:33:53.760 working at this company specifically 834 00:33:53.760 --> 00:33:56.279 share that after this question so 835 00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:58.559 example I think there's a lot to learn 836 00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:00.480 and I think there are opportunities for 837 00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:01.919 promotion 838 00:34:01.919 --> 00:34:04.200 do you have any questions for me 839 00:34:04.200 --> 00:34:06.779 last one the last question is very 840 00:34:06.779 --> 00:34:09.359 common do you have any questions for me 841 00:34:09.359 --> 00:34:11.099 do you have any questions for me 842 00:34:11.099 --> 00:34:13.080 interviewers will often ask this 843 00:34:13.080 --> 00:34:15.020 question at the end of an interview 844 00:34:15.020 --> 00:34:18.000 inviting the candidate to ask questions 845 00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:21.060 about the company it is usually a very 846 00:34:21.060 --> 00:34:23.820 good idea to prepare some questions for 847 00:34:23.820 --> 00:34:26.339 the interviewer so it's it's also a good 848 00:34:26.339 --> 00:34:28.020 idea to research your company or 849 00:34:28.020 --> 00:34:29.520 research the university you're 850 00:34:29.520 --> 00:34:32.580 interviewing for before the interview so 851 00:34:32.580 --> 00:34:34.200 if you have questions about the company 852 00:34:34.200 --> 00:34:37.500 company policy that sort of thing it's a 853 00:34:37.500 --> 00:34:39.359 great chance to ask your interviewer 854 00:34:39.359 --> 00:34:41.700 generally however it's not a good idea 855 00:34:41.700 --> 00:34:44.399 to ask specific questions about pay or 856 00:34:44.399 --> 00:34:47.219 vacation in the interview as you can be 857 00:34:47.219 --> 00:34:50.159 seen as maybe two being too money or too 858 00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.320 vacation focused that might come a 859 00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:54.480 little later if you say what's the 860 00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:57.359 salary for this job like unless it's a 861 00:34:57.359 --> 00:34:59.520 situation unless it's a kind of a close 862 00:34:59.520 --> 00:35:01.800 situation that might be too direct a 863 00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:04.680 question but instead ask some things 864 00:35:04.680 --> 00:35:06.780 about the company ask your interviewer 865 00:35:06.780 --> 00:35:09.180 what it's like to work there what your 866 00:35:09.180 --> 00:35:11.099 interviewer thinks is good about working 867 00:35:11.099 --> 00:35:13.500 for the company or maybe what your 868 00:35:13.500 --> 00:35:15.480 interviewer thinks the company is 869 00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:17.839 planning to do over the next few years 870 00:35:17.839 --> 00:35:21.239 ask something of your interviewer so it 871 00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:23.099 shows that you are interested in that 872 00:35:23.099 --> 00:35:25.320 company and that you want to learn more 873 00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:27.239 and participate more with that company 874 00:35:27.239 --> 00:35:29.400 so make sure to have some questions 875 00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:32.160 prepared when your interviewer asks do 876 00:35:32.160 --> 00:35:34.140 you have any questions for me so example 877 00:35:34.140 --> 00:35:36.359 question what do you think is the most 878 00:35:36.359 --> 00:35:39.060 rewarding part about working here so 879 00:35:39.060 --> 00:35:42.420 those are 10 job interview questions and 880 00:35:42.420 --> 00:35:44.460 a few different ways you can respond to 881 00:35:44.460 --> 00:35:46.800 them so I think those are useful for job 882 00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:48.540 interviews yes but maybe if you 883 00:35:48.540 --> 00:35:50.820 interview for like a university or 884 00:35:50.820 --> 00:35:53.160 interview for a scholarship or something 885 00:35:53.160 --> 00:35:55.920 you can use similar responses to similar 886 00:35:55.920 --> 00:35:57.719 questions so if you have any questions 887 00:35:57.719 --> 00:35:59.640 or comments please let us know in the 888 00:35:59.640 --> 00:36:01.980 comment section below this video if you 889 00:36:01.980 --> 00:36:03.660 liked the video please

don't 999 00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:31.560 think so to soften it the next word is 1000 00:40:31.560 --> 00:40:35.280 okay okay this word comes from copy 1001 00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:37.920 editors okay when they had to check a 1002 00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:39.960 manuscript they had to label the 1003 00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:42.960 manuscript all clear AC but because they 1004 00:40:42.960 --> 00:40:44.579 were copy editors and they have a very 1005 00:40:44.579 --> 00:40:46.440 very sick sense of humor they thought 1006 00:40:46.440 --> 00:40:49.260 they would mark it okay for all clear to 1007 00:40:49.260 --> 00:40:51.660 make a joke because o and K do not start 1008 00:40:51.660 --> 00:40:54.540 all and clear but it caught on 1009 00:40:54.540 --> 00:40:57.300 among everybody in the

name something what is the name you 1499 01:01:45.359 --> 01:01:47.520 use for this thing so what do you call 1500 01:01:47.520 --> 01:01:51.000 this like what do you call this what do 1501 01:01:51.000 --> 01:01:52.859 you call that what do you call these 1502 01:01:52.859 --> 01:01:54.960 what do you call this so you can use 1503 01:01:54.960 --> 01:01:56.940 that when you don't know the word for 1504 01:01:56.940 --> 01:01:59.040 something when you find something new as 1505 01:01:59.040 --> 01:02:03.299 well how do I get to location how do I 1506 01:02:03.299 --> 01:02:06.420 get to so how do I get to for example 1507 01:02:06.420 --> 01:02:09.440 the station how do I get to this hotel 1508 01:02:09.440 --> 01:02:13.980 means what is the path I should take to 1509

more natural way to ask for directions 1515 01:02:29.460 --> 01:02:33.540 to someplace so don't use how do I go or 1516 01:02:33.540 --> 01:02:35.220 how do I 1517 01:02:35.220 --> 01:02:39.480 travel

01:02:48.839 before the specific place name so a 1521 01:02:48.839 --> 01:02:51.119 problem that I hear a lot is how do I go 1522 01:02:51.119 --> 01:02:54.480 to there so we don't use two before 1523 01:02:54.480 --> 01:02:57.540 there because there is not a specific 1524 01:02:57.540 --> 01:03:00.839 Place how do I get to the station a 1525 01:03:00.839 --> 01:03:03.059 station is a specific place or a hotel 1526 01:03:03.059 --> 01:03:06.119 is a specific place there is not a 1527 01:03:06.119 --> 01:03:09.000 specific place so we cannot use two with 1528 01:03:09.000 --> 01:03:11.700 there so how do I get there 1529 01:03:11.700 --> 01:03:14.760 it's fine no two how do you get to the 1530 01:03:14.760 --> 01:03:17.760 next one by scrolling down on the iPad 1531 01:03:17.760 -->

gone 1754 01:13:20.159 --> 01:13:23.760 so you can't say what did you say you 1755 01:13:23.760 --> 01:13:25.500 ask someone else what does that mean 1756 01:13:25.500 --> 01:13:27.120 what that person just said what does 1757 01:13:27.120 --> 01:13:28.860 that mean so what does that mean is 1758 01:13:28.860 --> 01:13:31.320 another really important expression for 1759 01:13:31.320 -->

01:15:12.600 --> 01:15:15.780 the negative form I don't have to or I 1801 01:15:15.780 --> 01:15:19.198 don't need to you can but make sure you 1802 01:15:19.198 --> 01:15:21.780 use it with something you don't have a 1803 01:15:21.780 --> 01:15:24.600 responsibility to do you I hear lots of 1804 01:15:24.600 --> 01:15:27.479 Learners use expressions like I don't 1805 01:15:27.479 --> 01:15:31.140 have to go to the bar today for example 1806 01:15:31.140 --> 01:15:34.380 like if going to a bar is part of your 1807 01:15:34.380 --> 01:15:36.960 regular responsibilities like you work 1808 01:15:36.960 --> 01:15:39.420 at a bar or like part of your business 1809 01:15:39.420 --> 01:15:42.540 is at a bar fine but if it's just 1810 01:15:42.540 --> 01:15:44.880 something you occasionally do it sounds 1811 01:15:44.880 --> 01:15:47.580 really unnatural to use I don't have to 1812 01:15:47.580 --> 01:15:50.400 go to the bar today so we use this in 1813 01:15:50.400 --> 01:15:52.380 the negative form for things we can 1814 01:15:52.380 --> 01:15:55.320 naturally and reasonably be expected to 1815 01:15:55.320 --> 01:15:58.198 have responsibility to do so keep that 1816 01:15:58.198 --> 01:15:59.939 in mind when you use the negative form 1817 01:15:59.939 --> 01:16:04.140 okay onward I have to I have to so my 1818 01:16:04.140 --> 01:16:06.719 previous one was I need to go to a place 1819 01:16:06.719 --> 01:16:08.939 if you want to just talk in general 1820 01:16:08.939 --> 01:16:11.820 about responsibilities you can use I 1821 01:16:11.820 --> 01:16:14.520 have to I have to get up early in the 1822 01:16:14.520 --> 01:16:17.100 morning I have to study for my tests I 1823 01:16:17.100 --> 01:16:21.719 have to think of a new hairstyle for my 1824 01:16:21.719 --> 01:16:24.540 cat yesterday I had to pass students I 1825 01:16:24.540 --> 01:16:26.580 had to buy new clothes because my 1826 01:16:26.580 --> 01:16:28.620 director was making fun of me for 1827 01:16:28.620 --> 01:16:30.719 wearing shirts and they were falling 1828 01:16:30.719 --> 01:16:33.600 apart on camera because that's how much 1829 01:16:33.600 --> 01:16:36.900 I love shopping yeah so past tense I had 1830 01:16:36.900 --> 01:16:39.600 to buy new clothes yesterday or I had to 1831 01:16:39.600 --> 01:16:42.900 go out in the rain yesterday so again I 1832 01:16:42.900 --> 01:16:45.840 had some responsibility to do that so 1833 01:16:45.840 --> 01:16:48.420 past tense had to when are we leaving 1834 01:16:48.420 --> 01:16:51.120 when are we leaving I included this here 1835 01:16:51.120 --> 01:16:54.179 because it's a common question 1836 01:16:54.179 --> 01:16:56.219 surprisingly like when are we leaving 1837 01:16:56.219 --> 01:16:59.698 not uh when do we go that's one that I 1838 01:16:59.698 --> 01:17:02.760 hear sometime like when do we go or when 1839 01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:05.040 we go or something like that don't use 1840 01:17:05.040 --> 01:17:08.698 those sorry Mr iPad um the question is 1841 01:17:08.698 --> 01:17:11.939 when are we leaving so we use this when 1842 01:17:11.939 --> 01:17:14.040 we're at an event we're at a party we're 1843 01:17:14.040 --> 01:17:16.320 maybe at work whatever you're going 1844 01:17:16.320 --> 01:17:18.540 somewhere else with another person or 1845 01:17:18.540 --> 01:17:21.540 with a group when are we leaving when 1846 01:17:21.540 --> 01:17:23.880 are we leaving this place place in other 1847 01:17:23.880 --> 01:17:26.760 words so natural pronunciation when are 1848 01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:29.280 we leaving when are we leaving becomes 1849 01:17:29.280 --> 01:17:32.420 when are we leaving okay so those are 25 1850 01:17:32.420 --> 01:17:35.340 must-know intermediate phrases I hope 1851 01:17:35.340 --> 01:17:37.620 that those are helpful for you many of 1852 01:17:37.620 --> 01:17:39.840 the phrases that I introduced here are 1853 01:17:39.840 --> 01:17:42.120 in present tense but remember you can 1854 01:17:42.120 --> 01:17:44.040 use them in past tense and in future 1855 01:17:44.040 --> 01:17:47.159 tense too so don't stick only to present 1856 01:17:47.159 --> 01:17:49.979 tense make sure to go outside of present 1857 01:17:49.979 --> 01:17:52.080 tense and think about the different ways 1858 01:17:52.080 --> 01:17:54.120 that you can use these Expressions to 1859 01:17:54.120 --> 01:17:56.520 talk about the past and the Future Okay 1860 01:17:56.520 --> 01:17:58.439 so that's everything for this lesson 1861 01:17:58.439 --> 01:18:00.120 thanks very

introduction to when to use each 1916 01:23:53.698 --> 01:23:56.280 of the English tenses I'm also going to 1917 01:23:56.280 --> 01:23:58.860 share an example of what that tense 1918 01:23:58.860 -->

about one of these 1924 01:24:14.820 --> 01:24:17.159 tenses so I hope this is helpful for you 1925 01:24:17.159 --> 01:24:19.920 okay so let's get started the first 1926 01:24:19.920 --> 01:24:23.280 group of tenses I want to look at is the 1927 01:24:23.280 --> 01:24:25.979 present tense so for today's lesson I've 1928 01:24:25.979 --> 01:24:28.260 organized it into three categories 1929 01:24:28.260 --> 01:24:31.800 present past and future tenses so let's 1930 01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:35.400 begin with the present tense so in each 1931 01:24:35.400 --> 01:24:38.939 category I have four different tenses I 1932 01:24:38.939 --> 01:24:41.880 have simple continuous perfect and 1933 01:24:41.880 --> 01:24:44.280 perfect continuous you might know 1934 01:24:44.280 --> 01:24:47.340 continuous as Progressive they mean the 1935 01:24:47.340 --> 01:24:49.500 same thing continuous and Progressive 1936 01:24:49.500 --> 01:24:52.320 mean the same thing for this lesson so 1937 01:24:52.320 --> 01:24:54.238 let's begin with the present simple 1938 01:24:54.238 --> 01:24:57.479 tense present simple tense is a tense we 1939 01:24:57.479 --> 01:25:00.179 use for General facts for regular 1940 01:25:00.179 --> 01:25:03.360 actions and for schedules so this is 1941 01:25:03.360 --> 01:25:05.460 stuff that doesn't change 1942 01:25:05.460 --> 01:25:08.820 like he speaks English for example she 1943 01:25:08.820 --> 01:25:10.860 doesn't speak Spanish that's a simple 1944 01:25:10.860 --> 01:25:14.040 fact for regular action so things you do 1945 01:25:14.040 --> 01:25:17.340 every day or every week for example and 1946 01:25:17.340 --> 01:25:19.800 schedule so that means like a bus or an 1947 01:25:19.800 --> 01:25:22.198 airplane or maybe a car schedule 1948 01:25:22.198 --> 01:25:24.479 something that maintains a regular 1949 01:25:24.479 --> 01:25:27.540 schedule an example two examples of 1950 01:25:27.540 --> 01:25:30.719 using the present simple tense first I 1951 01:25:30.719 --> 01:25:33.780 work on Mondays so here work is my verb 1952 01:25:33.780 --> 01:25:37.020 I work on Mondays simple present tense a 1953 01:25:37.020 --> 01:25:39.719 negative I don't eat lunch at two 1954 01:25:39.719 --> 01:25:42.360 o'clock so these are simple present 1955 01:25:42.360 --> 01:25:44.640 tense statements in this case they're 1956 01:25:44.640 --> 01:25:46.560 just simple statements of fact really 1957 01:25:46.560 --> 01:25:50.100 okay so let's continue to the next one 1958 01:25:50.100 --> 01:25:52.439 the second tense is the present 1959 01:25:52.439 --> 01:25:55.140 continuous tense the present continuous 1960 01:25:55.140 --> 01:25:58.620 tense so present continuous tense we use 1961 01:25:58.620 --> 01:26:01.560 for continuing actions and that means 1962 01:26:01.560 --> 01:26:04.620 actions that are happening now so for 1963 01:26:04.620 --> 01:26:07.679 example I'm teaching I'm standing I'm 1964 01:26:07.679 --> 01:26:11.219 speaking those are actions happening now 1965 01:26:11.219 --> 01:26:13.679 so we use it for continuing actions now 1966 01:26:13.679 --> 01:26:17.340 like physical actions we also use it for 1967 01:26:17.340 --> 01:26:20.280 Trends so things happening in your 1968 01:26:20.280 --> 01:26:23.159 Society right now for example so 1969 01:26:23.159 --> 01:26:25.979 examples would be like that TV show is 1970 01:26:25.979 --> 01:26:29.280 becoming popular or the world is getting 1971 01:26:29.280 --> 01:26:32.040 warmer for example so these are things 1972 01:26:32.040 --> 01:26:35.639 happening now also we can use it for 1973 01:26:35.639 --> 01:26:38.580 one-time actions as well and this 1974 01:26:38.580 --> 01:26:40.920 relates a little bit to future tense 1975 01:26:40.920 --> 01:26:43.260 which I'm going to talk about later too 1976 01:26:43.260 --> 01:26:46.260 but something happening just one time in 1977 01:26:46.260 --> 01:26:48.900 the future we can use the continuous 1978 01:26:48.900 --> 01:26:52.738 form to describe that so for example I'm 1979 01:26:52.738 --> 01:26:55.738 working this Saturday so sometimes 1980 01:26:55.738 --> 01:26:57.900 students ask what's the difference why 1981 01:26:57.900 --> 01:27:00.420 is it I'm working this Saturday and not 1982 01:27:00.420 --> 01:27:03.840 I work this Saturday remember we talked 1983 01:27:03.840 --> 01:27:05.939 about the present simple tense we use 1984 01:27:05.939 --> 01:27:07.920 that for regular actions for General 1985 01:27:07.920 --> 01:27:11.639 facts so if you usually work on 1986 01:27:11.639 --> 01:27:13.679 Saturdays you should use the present 1987 01:27:13.679 --> 01:27:16.320 simple tense I work on Saturdays if 1988 01:27:16.320 --> 01:27:19.380 however this Saturday is special and you 1989 01:27:19.380 --> 01:27:21.540 don't usually work on Saturdays you 1990 01:27:21.540 --> 01:27:23.520 should use the continuous tense I'm 1991 01:27:23.520 --> 01:27:25.738 working this Saturday so it sounds like 1992 01:27:25.738 --> 01:27:28.080 that's not a typical thing for you I'm 1993 01:27:28.080 --> 01:27:30.540 working this Saturday okay let's go on 1994 01:27:30.540 --> 01:27:32.698 to the third tense the third tense is 1995 01:27:32.698 --> 01:27:34.800 the present perfect tense present 1996 01:27:34.800 --> 01:27:37.260 perfect tense so we use the present 1997 01:27:37.260 --> 01:27:39.479 perfect tense for General life 1998 01:27:39.479 --> 01:27:42.540 experience or lack thereof so lack 1999 01:27:42.540 --> 01:27:45.300 thereof means no no life experience not 2000 01:27:45.300 --> 01:27:48.120 having a life experience so something 2001 01:27:48.120 --> 01:27:51.780 that you did in the past but not at a 2002 01:27:51.780 --> 01:27:54.000 specific point in time the specific 2003 01:27:54.000 --> 01:27:56.460 point in time is not so important here 2004 01:27:56.460 --> 01:27:59.760 or maybe we don't know so example a 2005 01:27:59.760 --> 01:28:03.060 negative example he has Never Been to 2006 01:28:03.060 --> 01:28:05.280 Spain he has Never Been to Spain in this 2007 01:28:05.280 --> 01:28:08.698 case no life experience of going to 2008 01:28:08.698 --> 01:28:11.040 Spain is what this means so this is an 2009 01:28:11.040 --> 01:28:13.979 example of present perfect tense here we 2010 01:28:13.979 --> 01:28:16.979 have he has remember we need to attach 2011 01:28:16.979 --> 01:28:21.540 has or have before our past participle 2012 01:28:21.540 --> 01:28:23.939 verb form here so for more information 2013 01:28:23.939 --> 01:28:26.159 about this tense you can check the 2014 01:28:26.159 --> 01:28:27.780 channel there's more information there 2015 01:28:27.780 --> 01:28:30.659 so let's continue on to the next tense 2016 01:28:30.659 --> 01:28:32.460 now the next tense is the present 2017 01:28:32.460 --> 01:28:34.860 perfect continuous tense present perfect 2018 01:28:34.860 --> 01:28:38.219 continuous we use this tense for actions 2019 01:28:38.219 --> 01:28:41.159 that started in the past and continue to 2020 01:28:41.159 --> 01:28:43.020 the present so something you started 2021 01:28:43.020 --> 01:28:45.719 doing in the past some point in the past 2022 01:28:45.719 --> 01:28:49.439 it's not always important when but that 2023 01:28:49.439 --> 01:28:52.080 action continues so you use this a lot 2024 01:28:52.080 --> 01:28:54.420 to talk about your studies for example 2025 01:28:54.420 --> 01:28:58.380 we use words like for and since and 2026 01:28:58.380 --> 01:29:01.020 maybe a go with this as well so an 2027 01:29:01.020 --> 01:29:03.600 example of this I've been studying 2028 01:29:03.600 --> 01:29:06.900 English for two years so here we see 2029 01:29:06.900 --> 01:29:10.139 I've been this I've is the contracted 2030 01:29:10.139 --> 01:29:13.939 the reduced form of I have I have been 2031 01:29:13.939 --> 01:29:16.800 studying so this is the continuous or 2032 01:29:16.800 --> 01:29:19.080 the progressive form in this case I've 2033 01:29:19.080 --> 01:29:21.420 used the word for I've used four because 2034 01:29:21.420 --> 01:29:24.420 I'm using two years which is a length of 2035 01:29:24.420 --> 01:29:27.659 time we can use since for example I've 2036 01:29:27.659 --> 01:29:31.439 been studying English since 2016. so we 2037 01:29:31.439 --> 01:29:34.620 use since before a specific point in 2038 01:29:34.620 --> 01:29:38.760 time we can use a go as well usually we 2039 01:29:38.760 --> 01:29:40.679 pair it with synths I've been studying 2040 01:29:40.679 --> 01:29:44.040 English since two years ago you'll 2041 01:29:44.040 --> 01:29:46.738 notice when we use a go however we 2042 01:29:46.738 --> 01:29:49.460 change from using in my first example 2043 01:29:49.460 --> 01:29:53.520 2016 to a length of time since two years 2044 01:29:53.520 --> 01:29:55.979 ago so there are a few different changes 2045 01:29:55.979 --> 01:29:57.780 you need to make there but you can check 2046 01:29:57.780 --> 01:30:00.120 the other video on the channel for more 2047 01:30:00.120 --> 01:30:02.100 information about that 2048 01:30:02.100 --> 01:30:04.979 okay let's move on to the second group 2049 01:30:04.979 --> 01:30:07.500 for today which is the past tense let's 2050 01:30:07.500 --> 01:30:09.540 look at the Four Points in the past 2051 01:30:09.540 --> 01:30:12.659 tense here first one is the past simple 2052 01:30:12.659 --> 01:30:15.179 or just simple past tense simple past 2053 01:30:15.179 --> 01:30:17.760 tense is used for actions that started 2054 01:30:17.760 --> 01:30:21.238 and finished in the past so for example 2055 01:30:21.238 --> 01:30:25.139 I taught simple present tense earlier so 2056 01:30:25.139 --> 01:30:27.780 I used past tense I taught simple 2057 01:30:27.780 --> 01:30:30.300 present tense because the action started 2058 01:30:30.300 --> 01:30:33.719 and finished in the past another example 2059 01:30:33.719 --> 01:30:37.320 I worked all night I worked all night so 2060 01:30:37.320 --> 01:30:40.439 work is my verb I use simple past tense 2061 01:30:40.439 --> 01:30:43.139 worked because the action started and 2062 01:30:43.139 --> 01:30:46.020 finished in the past another example a 2063 01:30:46.020 --> 01:30:48.600 negative they didn't come they didn't 2064 01:30:48.600 --> 01:30:50.400 come to the party they didn't come to 2065 01:30:50.400 --> 01:30:53.280 the office the action was in the past it 2066 01:30:53.280 --> 01:30:55.800 refers to something that did not happen 2067 01:30:55.800 --> 01:30:58.260 in the past so there was no action in 2068 01:30:58.260 --> 01:31:00.960 the past but it's over it's finished so 2069 01:31:00.960 --> 01:31:02.880 we use simple past tense to talk about 2070 01:31:02.880 --> 01:31:05.639 these simple actions that started and 2071 01:31:05.639 --> 01:31:09.060 finished in the past okay let's go on to 2072 01:31:09.060 --> 01:31:11.580 the Past continuous tense then past 2073 01:31:11.580 --> 01:31:14.219 continuous is for actions that were 2074 01:31:14.219 --> 01:31:17.340 continuing in the past so this one is 2075 01:31:17.340 --> 01:31:20.040 one we often use with a specific point 2076 01:31:20.040 --> 01:31:23.040 in time along with it so let's look at 2077 01:31:23.040 --> 01:31:24.840 an example first 2078 01:31:24.840 --> 01:31:27.238 we were listening to music we were 2079 01:31:27.238 --> 01:31:29.400 listening to music yesterday or we were 2080 01:31:29.400 --> 01:31:32.460 listening to music at 8 pm when were you 2081 01:31:32.460 --> 01:31:34.439 listening to music when was that action 2082 01:31:34.439 --> 01:31:38.340 continuing at 8 pm or yesterday so it's 2083 01:31:38.340 --> 01:31:41.460 common to include a point in time with 2084 01:31:41.460 --> 01:31:43.560 this grammar Point another example like 2085 01:31:43.560 --> 01:31:46.560 I was doing something something ing form 2086 01:31:46.560 --> 01:31:50.219 there so this is one that's some people 2087 01:31:50.219 --> 01:31:52.500 have questions about like why should I 2088 01:31:52.500 --> 01:31:54.659 use that when should I use that it's 2089 01:31:54.659 --> 01:31:56.880 typically used in response to someone's 2090 01:31:56.880 --> 01:31:59.340 question like what were you doing last 2091 01:31:59.340 --> 01:32:01.738 night for example or what were you doing 2092 01:32:01.738 --> 01:32:03.719 this morning so you want to know 2093 01:32:03.719 --> 01:32:06.659 someone's activities at a specific point 2094 01:32:06.659 --> 01:32:08.880 in time you can use this grammar point 2095 01:32:08.880 --> 01:32:11.880 to respond to that question okay let's 2096 01:32:11.880 --> 01:32:14.340 move along to the past perfect tense our 2097 01:32:14.340 --> 01:32:16.679 next one past perfect tense is for 2098 01:32:16.679 --> 01:32:18.600 actions that were completed or not 2099 01:32:18.600 --> 01:32:22.738 completed at a non-specific point in the 2100 01:32:22.738 --> 01:32:25.320 past at a non-specific point in the past 2101 01:32:25.320 --> 01:32:27.960 so this one is kind of difficult and 2102 01:32:27.960 --> 01:32:31.860 it's perhaps not used quite so much in 2103 01:32:31.860 --> 01:32:34.260 everyday conversation this is used a bit 2104 01:32:34.260 --> 01:32:36.659 more in writing this is a grammar Point 2105 01:32:36.659 --> 01:32:39.300 that's especially helpful when we want 2106 01:32:39.300 --> 01:32:41.639 to show kind of a timeline in our 2107 01:32:41.639 --> 01:32:44.040 writing to show that an action happened 2108 01:32:44.040 --> 01:32:47.580 before another action in the past we can 2109 01:32:47.580 --> 01:32:50.219 use the past perfect tense so here's a 2110 01:32:50.219 --> 01:32:53.580 couple of examples uh first one they 2111 01:32:53.580 --> 01:32:56.520 hadn't departed yet so here hadn't is 2112 01:32:56.520 --> 01:32:59.040 the reduced form of had not they hadn't 2113 01:32:59.040 --> 01:33:02.219 departed yet and I had taken my lunch 2114 01:33:02.219 --> 01:33:03.120 break 2115 01:33:03.120 --> 01:33:06.360 so we would use sentences like these if 2116 01:33:06.360 --> 01:33:08.760 we're telling a story so we're telling a 2117 01:33:08.760 --> 01:33:10.860 story about the past and we want to show 2118 01:33:10.860 --> 01:33:13.380 that one action happened before another 2119 01:33:13.380 --> 01:33:15.960 action when we want to talk about the 2120 01:33:15.960 --> 01:33:17.760 earlier action so the thing that 2121 01:33:17.760 --> 01:33:20.280 happened earlier like more in the past 2122 01:33:20.280 --> 01:33:23.460 we use the past perfect tense then we 2123 01:33:23.460 --> 01:33:25.800 can use the simple past tense to explain 2124 01:33:25.800 --> 01:33:28.560 the action that happened closer to the 2125 01:33:28.560 --> 01:33:31.198 present so for example 2126 01:33:31.198 --> 01:33:35.159 I had taken my lunch break when I saw 2127 01:33:35.159 --> 01:33:37.979 the delivery man came or something like 2128 01:33:37.979 --> 01:33:39.840 that so you can see my second point 2129 01:33:39.840 --> 01:33:41.340 there that's kind of a strange example 2130 01:33:41.340 --> 01:33:43.920 but you see that my second point there 2131 01:33:43.920 --> 01:33:46.620 uses the simple past tense I saw the 2132 01:33:46.620 --> 01:33:48.719 delivery man came so I had taken my 2133 01:33:48.719 --> 01:33:51.600 lunch break further in the past when I 2134 01:33:51.600 --> 01:33:53.880 saw the delivery man came so that's 2135 01:33:53.880 --> 01:33:55.738 simple past tense so this is probably 2136 01:33:55.738 --> 01:33:58.439 more common in writing but it is used in 2137 01:33:58.439 --> 01:34:01.198 speaking as well too so this is what we 2138 01:34:01.198 --> 01:34:04.080 use a past perfect tense to do okay 2139 01:34:04.080 --> 01:34:05.698 let's move on then to another 2140 01:34:05.698 --> 01:34:08.360 challenging point a past perfect 2141 01:34:08.360 --> 01:34:11.238 continuous tense past perfect continuous 2142 01:34:11.238 --> 01:34:13.679 these uh these are sentences or 2143 01:34:13.679 --> 01:34:16.500 questions for actions that started in 2144 01:34:16.500 --> 01:34:20.219 the past and continued to like an 2145 01:34:20.219 --> 01:34:22.800 unspecified point in the past so the 2146 01:34:22.800 --> 01:34:25.560 action has finished as well that's a key 2147 01:34:25.560 --> 01:34:27.840 difference with the present perfect 2148 01:34:27.840 --> 01:34:29.520 continuous with present perfect 2149 01:34:29.520 --> 01:34:32.580 continuous the action is happening now 2150 01:34:32.580 --> 01:34:35.820 still that behavior still continues key 2151 01:34:35.820 --> 01:34:37.198 point though with past perfect 2152 01:34:37.198 --> 01:34:40.020 continuous is that the action started at 2153 01:34:40.020 --> 01:34:41.939 some point in the past and then 2154 01:34:41.939 --> 01:34:45.120 continued and finished as well but it's 2155 01:34:45.120 --> 01:34:47.880 some unspecified point so maybe we don't 2156 01:34:47.880 --> 01:34:49.920 know exactly when the action finished 2157 01:34:49.920 --> 01:34:52.560 but it's done it's complete so let's 2158 01:34:52.560 --> 01:34:54.420 look at an example 2159 01:34:54.420 --> 01:34:58.560 uh they had been waiting since 3 P.M so 2160 01:34:58.560 --> 01:35:01.860 here they had been waiting this shows us 2161 01:35:01.860 --> 01:35:04.738 that there was some waiting period so 2162 01:35:04.738 --> 01:35:07.738 the The Waiting started at 3 P.M and the 2163 01:35:07.738 --> 01:35:09.179 waiting continued and continued and 2164 01:35:09.179 --> 01:35:11.820 continued we don't know when the waiting 2165 01:35:11.820 --> 01:35:14.280 finished but this grammar Point shows us 2166 01:35:14.280 --> 01:35:16.139 that the waiting has finished we're 2167 01:35:16.139 --> 01:35:18.540 finished waiting that's done we wanted 2168 01:35:18.540 --> 01:35:20.820 to talk only about this period of time 2169 01:35:20.820 --> 01:35:23.280 the people were waiting in the past so 2170 01:35:23.280 --> 01:35:25.260 this is the grammar point that we use to 2171 01:35:25.260 --> 01:35:26.960 talk about things that were happening 2172 01:35:26.960 --> 01:35:30.120 over a period of time in the past and 2173 01:35:30.120 --> 01:35:32.639 then finished so this is something again 2174 01:35:32.639 --> 01:35:34.679 we use when telling stories we're 2175 01:35:34.679 --> 01:35:36.840 showing a sequence of events actually 2176 01:35:36.840 --> 01:35:39.659 okay let's move along then to the last 2177 01:35:39.659 --> 01:35:41.880 group for today's lesson the future 2178 01:35:41.880 --> 01:35:44.100 tense future tense let's start with the 2179 01:35:44.100 --> 01:35:47.280 future simple tense future simple tense 2180 01:35:47.280 --> 01:35:50.219 this is for actions that are planned or 2181 01:35:50.219 --> 01:35:52.198 unplanned for the future 2182 01:35:52.198 --> 01:35:54.120 there are actually a lot of different 2183 01:35:54.120 --> 01:35:56.340 things we can do to make the future 2184 01:35:56.340 --> 01:35:58.800 simple tense some very common ways of 2185 01:35:58.800 --> 01:36:01.198 making future simple are through using 2186 01:36:01.198 --> 01:36:04.139 will and won't and going to and not 2187 01:36:04.139 --> 01:36:07.320 going to and earlier in this lesson I 2188 01:36:07.320 --> 01:36:09.360 mentioned using the continuous tense the 2189 01:36:09.360 --> 01:36:12.360 present continuous tense the ing form of 2190 01:36:12.360 --> 01:36:14.698 a verb to make statements about the 2191 01:36:14.698 --> 01:36:16.920 future also so there are many ways to 2192 01:36:16.920 --> 01:36:19.080 make a simple future statement let's 2193 01:36:19.080 --> 01:36:22.260 look at a couple of examples first I'll 2194 01:36:22.260 --> 01:36:24.540 have a glass of wine this uses will 2195 01:36:24.540 --> 01:36:27.540 aisle isle is the reduced form of I will 2196 01:36:27.540 --> 01:36:29.460 have a glass of wine that's a future 2197 01:36:29.460 --> 01:36:30.780 statement 2198 01:36:30.780 --> 01:36:33.780 also he's going to cook dinner in this 2199 01:36:33.780 --> 01:36:36.719 one I've used going to to express that 2200 01:36:36.719 --> 01:36:38.698 so these are just simple things about 2201 01:36:38.698 --> 01:36:40.920 planned or perhaps unplanned like he's 2202 01:36:40.920 --> 01:36:42.780 not going to cook dinner would be an 2203 01:36:42.780 --> 01:36:44.639 unplanned action in the future or 2204 01:36:44.639 --> 01:36:46.380 something that's not going to happen in 2205 01:36:46.380 --> 01:36:50.040 the future rather okay so let's go on to 2206 01:36:50.040 --> 01:36:52.620 the Future continuous tense now future 2207 01:36:52.620 --> 01:36:54.179 continuous tense 2208 01:36:54.179 --> 01:36:58.020 this is for actions you think uh will or 2209 01:36:58.020 --> 01:37:01.620 will not be continuing in the future in 2210 01:37:01.620 --> 01:37:03.659 the future something you think will be 2211 01:37:03.659 --> 01:37:06.000 continuously happening in the future 2212 01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:08.460 let's look at an example 2213 01:37:08.460 --> 01:37:12.479 I'm not going to be working at company a 2214 01:37:12.479 --> 01:37:14.939 I'm not going to be working at company a 2215 01:37:14.939 --> 01:37:18.600 so here you can see we have going to I'm 2216 01:37:18.600 --> 01:37:22.439 not going to plus we have a verb in the 2217 01:37:22.439 --> 01:37:25.320 continuous tense I'm not going to be 2218 01:37:25.320 --> 01:37:28.198 working at company a meaning in other 2219 01:37:28.198 --> 01:37:30.540 words I'm not going to have a job at 2220 01:37:30.540 --> 01:37:33.360 company a or I'm not going to continue 2221 01:37:33.360 --> 01:37:36.300 my position at company a in the future 2222 01:37:36.300 --> 01:37:38.639 that's my thought now in the present 2223 01:37:38.639 --> 01:37:41.460 about the future so at that time in the 2224 01:37:41.460 --> 01:37:44.280 future like in one year for example I 2225 01:37:44.280 --> 01:37:46.738 will not be working at that company or 2226 01:37:46.738 --> 01:37:49.139 I'm not going to be working at company a 2227 01:37:49.139 --> 01:37:51.780 so that's the idea behind the future 2228 01:37:51.780 --> 01:37:54.840 continuous tense okay let's move along 2229 01:37:54.840 --> 01:37:58.439 to the future perfect tense then so so 2230 01:37:58.439 --> 01:38:00.900 future perfect tense refers to actions 2231 01:38:00.900 --> 01:38:03.840 that you think will have started some 2232 01:38:03.840 --> 01:38:06.060 point in the future so remember you're 2233 01:38:06.060 --> 01:38:09.000 thinking in the present right now but 2234 01:38:09.000 --> 01:38:11.219 this grammar point is used to talk about 2235 01:38:11.219 --> 01:38:14.520 something something you imagine in the 2236 01:38:14.520 --> 01:38:18.300 future that starts at some point and you 2237 01:38:18.300 --> 01:38:21.179 think might be continuing into the 2238 01:38:21.179 --> 01:38:24.719 future maybe something started and maybe 2239 01:38:24.719 --> 01:38:27.420 continues this is the idea here so let's 2240 01:38:27.420 --> 01:38:29.460 look at an example 2241 01:38:29.460 --> 01:38:34.080 uh I will have lived in China for two 2242 01:38:34.080 --> 01:38:37.380 years I will have lived in China so here 2243 01:38:37.380 --> 01:38:39.960 I'm using will to show it's a future 2244 01:38:39.960 --> 01:38:43.800 tense statement I will Plus have lived 2245 01:38:43.800 --> 01:38:46.560 this is the same thing that we use for 2246 01:38:46.560 --> 01:38:49.320 the present perfect tense that we talked 2247 01:38:49.320 --> 01:38:51.780 about earlier that past participle Plus 2248 01:38:51.780 --> 01:38:54.659 have or has but we're attaching it to a 2249 01:38:54.659 --> 01:38:58.080 future tense will I will have lived in 2250 01:38:58.080 --> 01:39:00.840 China for two years so when would we use 2251 01:39:00.840 --> 01:39:03.840 this so if for example someone asks you 2252 01:39:03.840 --> 01:39:06.600 a question about your future and they 2253 01:39:06.600 --> 01:39:10.620 say like so where do you see yourself in 2254 01:39:10.620 --> 01:39:13.738 like 2020 for example or where do you 2255 01:39:13.738 --> 01:39:16.800 imagine you're going to live in 2020 for 2256 01:39:16.800 --> 01:39:19.679 example you can say oh I will have lived 2257 01:39:19.679 --> 01:39:23.340 in China for two years so meaning at 2258 01:39:23.340 --> 01:39:27.540 that time in 2020 I will have lived in 2259 01:39:27.540 --> 01:39:30.360 China for two years so that means not 2260 01:39:30.360 --> 01:39:33.300 now but in the future at that point in 2261 01:39:33.300 --> 01:39:36.479 time in the future I will have started 2262 01:39:36.479 --> 01:39:39.300 Living in China and that will have 2263 01:39:39.300 --> 01:39:41.580 continued for two years so that's what 2264 01:39:41.580 --> 01:39:43.020 that means that's a guess about the 2265 01:39:43.020 --> 01:39:45.300 future a future time period that 2266 01:39:45.300 --> 01:39:47.820 something will have continued in the 2267 01:39:47.820 --> 01:39:50.280 future so again quite a challenging 2268 01:39:50.280 --> 01:39:52.679 grammar point but something definitely 2269 01:39:52.679 --> 01:39:55.439 to look into so again not used perhaps 2270 01:39:55.439 --> 01:39:58.139 as much as the present perfect tense but 2271 01:39:58.139 --> 01:40:00.540 great for storytelling and for imagining 2272 01:40:00.540 --> 01:40:03.719 your future too okay so let's move on to 2273 01:40:03.719 --> 01:40:06.420 the last point for today's lesson the 2274 01:40:06.420 --> 01:40:09.120 future perfect continuous tense future 2275 01:40:09.120 --> 01:40:12.300 perfect continuous this is a tense that 2276 01:40:12.300 --> 01:40:15.000 you use similar to the last one but for 2277 01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.698 actions you think will or won't have 2278 01:40:17.698 --> 01:40:21.479 started and will be continuing so 2279 01:40:21.479 --> 01:40:24.420 something that's going to have started 2280 01:40:24.420 --> 01:40:26.460 again in the future something started 2281 01:40:26.460 --> 01:40:28.860 and the action will have continued into 2282 01:40:28.860 --> 01:40:32.100 the future example I won't have been 2283 01:40:32.100 --> 01:40:34.979 eating meat for three months I won't 2284 01:40:34.979 --> 01:40:36.540 have been eating meat for three months 2285 01:40:36.540 --> 01:40:39.139 so for this one let's imagine 2286 01:40:39.139 --> 01:40:41.880 that you decided last month to stop 2287 01:40:41.880 --> 01:40:44.400 eating meat so that's fine actually for 2288 01:40:44.400 --> 01:40:46.198 this for this sentence that's okay you 2289 01:40:46.198 --> 01:40:48.600 made a decision last month to stop 2290 01:40:48.600 --> 01:40:49.979 eating meat 2291 01:40:49.979 --> 01:40:51.979 then someone asks you 2292 01:40:51.979 --> 01:40:54.738 about your progress like how's it going 2293 01:40:54.738 --> 01:40:58.020 like what are you going to do next month 2294 01:40:58.020 --> 01:41:01.439 and you can say to yourself hmm well at 2295 01:41:01.439 --> 01:41:03.900 that point next month by next month in 2296 01:41:03.900 --> 01:41:07.439 the future you can use this sentence I 2297 01:41:07.439 --> 01:41:11.219 won't so won't negative will not I won't 2298 01:41:11.219 --> 01:41:14.520 have been eating meat for three months 2299 01:41:14.520 --> 01:41:17.100 for three months so that means from the 2300 01:41:17.100 --> 01:41:19.320 point in time I started it in the past 2301 01:41:19.320 --> 01:41:23.159 until this point in the future so not 2302 01:41:23.159 --> 01:41:26.000 present but into the future 2303 01:41:26.000 --> 01:41:30.540 this entire time my behavior not eating 2304 01:41:30.540 --> 01:41:34.020 meat that's going to have continued so 2305 01:41:34.020 --> 01:41:36.360 you're making a guess about the future 2306 01:41:36.360 --> 01:41:39.479 so if this future point in time that 2307 01:41:39.479 --> 01:41:41.820 behavior I started in the past will have 2308 01:41:41.820 --> 01:41:43.800 continued and continued and continued 2309 01:41:43.800 --> 01:41:45.960 and at this point it will be three 2310 01:41:45.960 --> 01:41:48.060 months three months total for that 2311 01:41:48.060 --> 01:41:50.400 behavior so we use this to talk about 2312 01:41:50.400 --> 01:41:53.400 something some future thing that will 2313 01:41:53.400 --> 01:41:56.340 have continued or will be continuing 2314 01:41:56.340 --> 01:41:59.040 into the future so we'll have continued 2315 01:41:59.040 --> 01:42:00.900 meaning something that started in the 2316 01:42:00.900 --> 01:42:03.780 past and continues into the future or 2317 01:42:03.780 --> 01:42:06.479 will be continuing meaning it's still 2318 01:42:06.479 --> 01:42:09.780 going into the future as well so there 2319 01:42:09.780 --> 01:42:11.820 are a couple of like very very subtle 2320 01:42:11.820 --> 01:42:13.979 grammar points to consider there too so 2321 01:42:13.979 --> 01:42:15.659 that those are a couple of maybe tough 2322 01:42:15.659 --> 01:42:17.820 grammar points but they're really good 2323 01:42:17.820 --> 01:42:19.679 for storytelling and for talking about 2324 01:42:19.679 --> 01:42:22.860 your future as well okay so I know that 2325 01:42:22.860 --> 01:42:24.900 this was a

the situation was friendly that's 2465 01:48:58.979 --> 01:49:01.260 it sounded more natural 2466 01:49:01.260 --> 01:49:04.139 now you try say the phrase after Gustavo 2467 01:49:04.139 --> 01:49:06.479 says Henry's name correctly 2468 01:49:06.479 --> 01:49:09.979 Henry Eddins 2469 01:49:14.639 --> 01:49:17.420 that's it 2470 01:49:18.060 --> 01:49:20.698 now the lesson Focus here's how

with Hi and then used a set 2478 01:49:39.238 --> 01:49:41.219 phrase 2479 01:49:41.219 --> 01:49:43.860 how do you do 2480 01:49:43.860 --> 01:49:47.639 how do you do 2481 01:49:47.639 --> 01:49:50.040 this is a polite expression people often 2482 01:49:50.040 --> 01:49:52.260 use with an introduction it sounds like 2483 01:49:52.260 --> 01:49:54.238 a question but it has no particular 2484 01:49:54.238 --> 01:49:56.219 meaning and there's no expectation the 2485 01:49:56.219 --> 01:49:58.800 other person will try to answer it 2486 01:49:58.800 --> 01:50:01.380 next he says 2487 01:50:01.380 --> 01:50:03.719 I'm Gustavo 2488 01:50:03.719 --> 01:50:05.520 the first part of this sentence is a 2489 01:50:05.520 --> 01:50:09.000 contraction of two words I and am the am 2490 01:50:09.000 --> 01:50:11.280 here functions like an equal sign in 2491 01:50:11.280 --> 01:50:12.780 math 2492 01:50:12.780 --> 01:50:15.320 I'm 2493 01:50:15.659 --> 01:50:18.979 the next word in

structure of the pattern is 2498 01:50:27.300 --> 01:50:29.880 hi how do you do I'm 2499 01:50:29.880 --> 01:50:32.400 plus your name 2500 01:50:32.400 --> 01:50:35.040 now you try imagine your name

01:51:21.000 --> 01:51:22.860 just drop the I'm from the final 2511 01:51:22.860 --> 01:51:25.260 sentence of the self-introduction 2512 01:51:25.260 --> 01:51:28.738 for example if Gustavo just said 2513 01:51:28.738 --> 01:51:32.219 hi how do you do Gustavo 2514 01:51:32.219 --> 01:51:34.080 Henry would have understood it was his 2515 01:51:34.080 --> 01:51:35.159 name 2516 01:51:35.159 --> 01:51:36.900 this would be especially clear if 2517 01:51:36.900 --> 01:51:38.698 Gustavo extended his hand for a 2518 01:51:38.698 --> 01:51:40.920 handshake while saying this 2519 01:51:40.920 -->

01:51:49.920 --> 01:51:52.198 the second thing you need to know is you 2523 01:51:52.198 --> 01:51:55.020 can use I'm with just the first name or 2524 01:51:55.020 --> 01:51:56.400 your first name and the last name 2525 01:51:56.400 --> 01:51:57.960 together 2526 01:51:57.960 --> 01:52:00.600 I'm Henry Eddins 2527 01:52:00.600 --> 01:52:03.420 Edens is Henry's family name 2528 01:52:03.420 --> 01:52:05.639 using both your first name and your last 2529 01:52:05.639 --> 01:52:07.800 name is a little more formal 2530 01:52:07.800 --> 01:52:10.320 it also gives you less privacy for 2531 01:52:10.320 --> 01:52:12.238 example if people know both your first 2532 01:52:12.238 --> 01:52:14.400 and last name they can find you on the 2533 01:52:14.400 --> 01:52:16.139 internet more easily 2534 01:52:16.139 --> 01:52:18.479 so it may be more common for strangers 2535 01:52:18.479 --> 01:52:20.219 to say just their first name than people 2536 01:52:20.219 --> 01:52:22.738 meeting in a more friendly environment 2537 01:52:22.738 --> 01:52:25.139 next you'll learn how to tell people to 2538 01:52:25.139 --> 01:52:27.119 call you by a nickname just like Henry 2539 01:52:27.119 -->

2546 01:52:43.320 --> 01:52:44.820 sentence smoother 2547 01:52:44.820 --> 01:52:46.920 Henry uses this to introduce a new piece 2548 01:52:46.920 --> 01:52:48.420 of information 2549 01:52:48.420 -->

difficult to say so they're 2628 01:57:00.360 --> 01:57:02.159 really good chances to practice your 2629 01:57:02.159 --> 01:57:05.179 pronunciation let's go Sally sold 2630 01:57:05.179 --> 01:57:08.820 seashells by the seashore Sally sold 2631 01:57:08.820 --> 01:57:11.280 seashells by the seashore this one's 2632 01:57:11.280 --> 01:57:14.040 difficult because of this and Sh sounds 2633 01:57:14.040 --> 01:57:16.440 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 2634 01:57:16.440 --> 01:57:18.300 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 2635 01:57:18.300 --> 01:57:21.239 Sally sold seashells by the seashore 2636 01:57:21.239 --> 01:57:23.460 that one's not so bad okay okay we'll 2637 01:57:23.460 --> 01:57:26.280 move on next Betty botter bought some 2638 01:57:26.280 --> 01:57:28.679 butter but she said the Butter's bitter 2639 01:57:28.679 --> 01:57:31.800 I've never seen this before okay Betty 2640 01:57:31.800 --> 01:57:33.960 botter bought some butter but she said 2641 01:57:33.960 --> 01:57:36.480 the Butter's bitter that's a good one 2642 01:57:36.480 --> 01:57:38.159 that's a good one I feel like he could 2643 01:57:38.159 --> 01:57:39.540 have thrown the word like butt in there 2644 01:57:39.540 --> 01:57:41.400 somewhere too Betty bought her bought 2645 01:57:41.400 --> 01:57:42.599 some butter but she said the Butter's 2646 01:57:42.599 --> 01:57:44.940 bitter oh that's a good one it's very 2647 01:57:44.940 --> 01:57:46.980 bubbly Betty bought her bought some 2648 01:57:46.980 --> 01:57:48.360 butter but she said the Butter's bitter 2649 01:57:48.360 --> 01:57:50.340 it's like if I if I knew the words I 2650 01:57:50.340 --> 01:57:51.900 could probably say it faster Betty 2651 01:57:51.900 --> 01:57:53.099 bought or bought some butter but she 2652 01:57:53.099 --> 01:57:54.599 said the Butter's bitter butter Butter's 2653 01:57:54.599 --> 01:57:56.639 bitter bitter butter butter bitter but 2654 01:57:56.639 --> 01:57:57.960 she bought some butter but she said the 2655 01:57:57.960 --> 01:58:00.840 Butter's bitter is this enough I don't 2656 01:58:00.840 --> 01:58:04.380 know when to stop how much wood would a 2657 01:58:04.380 --> 01:58:07.199 woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could 2658 01:58:07.199 --> 01:58:10.080 chuck wood the next tuck twister is also 2659 01:58:10.080 --> 01:58:11.520 a classic one about woodchucks 2660 01:58:11.520 --> 01:58:14.280 woodchucks are real creatures that exist 2661 01:58:14.280 --> 01:58:16.260 on the west coast of the United States 2662 01:58:16.260 --> 01:58:18.900 primarily in Washington Oregon they're 2663 01:58:18.900 --> 01:58:20.760 like beavers but they don't live in 2664 01:58:20.760 --> 01:58:22.619 rivers they live in like forests and 2665 01:58:22.619 --> 01:58:24.900 rocks the tongue twister is how much 2666 01:58:24.900 --> 01:58:26.340 wood would a woodchuck chuck if a 2667 01:58:26.340 --> 01:58:28.020 woodchuck could chuck wood how much wood 2668 01:58:28.020 --> 01:58:29.340 would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck 2669 01:58:29.340 --> 01:58:30.659 could chuck wood and then there's a 2670 01:58:30.659 --> 01:58:32.699 common response to that which is it 2671 01:58:32.699 --> 01:58:33.659 would chuck all the wood that a 2672 01:58:33.659 --> 01:58:34.800 woodchuck could if a woodchuck could 2673 01:58:34.800 --> 01:58:36.480 chuck
