[@pliniofernandovideo]

Met your channel back in 2013 when studying English seriously for the first time. Still get the notifications for your videos because they are amazing. This one was great. Congratulations and thank you.

[@eagle1man488]

Thank you sooo much really the best teacher is Mr,Adam good job

[@maridelacroix1998]

Great lesson, Adam! Thank you very much. Bono sings this expression "sleight of hands" in the song "With or Without you", but he pronounces it "slight". "Irregardless" is a new one for me. I had never heard it before. But ... "anyways" is very common in New York City. I learned to use this "mistake" there, and I have to confess that it's been a bit hard getting rid of it.

[@001ooo8]

Thank you, Adam. That's very helpful.

[@andriyisayev2606]

I have learned new words and idioms. Very interesting lesson.

[@ahmedbahram4653]

Thank you Adam

[@heisenberg20]

Very interesting. Thanks In all languages, we have such mistakes that are regarded as correct and they are commonly used. In Farsi we call it "ghalate mostalah (غلط مصطلح)".

[@MsSelb]

Hi Adam I appreciate view your video so much. I’ve been studying English by myself about 5 years. You are my best youtube teacher. Thank you for your effort to teach me.

[@ОльгаИванова-б8п1ю]

Thank you 👍

[@danielvso]

WOW!! LOL Thank you very much for this awesome lesson!

[@serzhanseilkhanov1135]

Thanks Adam! Keep it up!

[@sashole1]

Methinks "irregardless" comes from the confusion with its synonym "irrespective". To me, "irregardless" is utterly unacceptable since it makes no logical sense, just like "could care less".

[@moazph]

Could you please add a lesson about the verb keep as a phrasal verb.

[@slaozel1972]

i'm writing below to learn all expressions meanings in video:) 1. couldn't care less: really don't care 2. regardless: whatever happened 3. for all intents and purposes: almost completely done 4. self-deprecating: putting ourselves down / lowering my own value 5. ex-patriate: remove someone from a country 6. nip it in the bud: nip=cut *before sth grows too big to control, you should cut and you want nip it in the bud 7. peace of mind: everything is okey, relax, no worries, no doubts 8. piece of my mind: i will tell you exactly what i think 9. sleight of hand: trick, you don't actually know what happened 10. 1st come, 1st serveD 11.whet your appetite: whet meanings to sharpen like knife *you make it sharper or stronger to help you enjoy the meal 12. deep-seated: sth to sitted deep inside of you and so hard to get out or change 13. hunger *pangs* 14. case in point: sth that you use as an example to support your idea if i did any mistakes please correct me:)

[@manjusharma9690]

Highly informative and useful video👍

[@sbdreamey]

"piece of mind" is usually uses when someone want to give their opinion on a certain topic, or they're just angry and really want to let it out.

[@AngeVPV]

Great video!

[@Summer_Englishlessons]

Great content 👍

[@mohammedabdulqadeer6212]

Dear Sir Adam, "in causetive verbs sentences" How can i make present tense sentence with Question words + helping verbs ? can i use "Do, Does & Did" for past tense ?

[@jawakeducationalpoint281]

[@jalan_jalan_santai]

I always like Adam. I watched him for the first time in 2012 😊

[@enriqueassis4128]

This guy is so good

[@valentinadecimapedraza9970]

Nice haircut, Adam ✨

[@cinemanuggets24]

These mistakes are actually hilarious 🤣

[@patitadeperromx]

Hola Adam, thank you for this video, it helped me, I wish you get more students in this channel in 2023; GOD bless you (all of you). Saludos from Mexico City. BTW: If I had some writing mistakes, be my guest and tell me =:O) (Just joking).

[@SaigonBrit]

Why do Americans (often) say 'I could care less'? It makes no sense at all.

[@ernestpetros6178]

Cuz 90% of Americans are illiterate.

[@bytefu]

I believe, EngVid is a Canadian enterprise, so I assume that Canadians are not much better at this :) I agree, it doesn't make any sense, but it's the same in my native language, Russian: most people learn many expressions like these from casual conversation and don't read many books. Now imagine how many mistakes the Chinese must do in their language, given that in their writing system, there is essentially no connection between phonetics and ideograms they write.

[@SaigonBrit]

@@bytefu Great point indeed. It's often about what people read versus what they hear. However, that doesn't excuse the mispronunciation of 'parmesan' (as in the Italian cheese) by most Americans (and some Brits!)

[@meowgli]

watch the vid😸💖

[@vivianagambetta9197]

Human beings are the same everywhere, in Latin America, it happens exactly the same with many expressions in Spanish

[@tati_m2856]

Some of my friends use ''Should of''' instead of ''Should've''

[@sujipouri4973]

thanks teacher, i'm gonna continue making mistakes regardless i'm not an naive speaker.

[@nikovald]

"I'm not a native speaker".

[@Votramarble]

U are beast teacher.

[@meowgli]

i found some other eggcorns because of this lesson and laughed so hard😸i had no idea about these before

[@sagarjadhav7619]

"They go to meet their friend and show him notebook " Sir please tell me in this sentence, the function of "show" is it working as infinitive or main verb ? Sir please explain I am so much confused in this kind of sentence kindly do answer me please

[@growingnld9989]

Please explain,, difference between now and then and off and on

[@javinewjersey]

Hi Adam. What about expatriate vs migrant? What's the difference. Txs again.

[@fatimaalamri7597]

What are the 4 ways we can describe a noun?😊

[@jawakeducationalpoint281]

By the way, I like you the most amongst your other team members

Hello! At the end of February I plan to take the IELTS exam in English, I am looking for like-minded people, or just wanting to practice speaking. my level is low b1 approximately. Всем привет! На конец февраля планирую сдавать IELTS exam на английском, ищу единомышленников, или просто желающих потренировать спикинг . уровень у меня невысокий b1 примерно, спикинг слабоват.

[@princessaynaartan804]

Hi Adam lm form somaliy

[@Abdinor.H.]

Hi

[@Roero]

Also in Italian we experience the same issue on "couldn't care less" , i guess it's due to the fact the people are lazy and are keen on shortening the statements as they are widely understood anyway

[@Howudoit777]

Please make subtitles in English 🙏

[@ANDREGUSTAVOTOPA]

Dear teacher, this is very difficult, I have to study hard.

[@Manigo1743]

Native English speakers don't even know the difference between "then" and "than".

[@zenobikraweznick]

Party pooper, it always cracks me up 😳

[@bytefu]

Wow, I suddenly feel much better about my English. My primary sources of education in the language for the first decade was elementary and middle school (started learning at age 7, learned very little), then, for roughly another decade, video games with a dictionary, and in the last decade - first programming documentation and the Internet, then I gradually started watching movies and TV shows, but have only read less than a dozen books total. And I still knew the correct variants of most of the expressions, especially "self-deprecating". Took me measly 30 years to reach a decent proficiency level 😁 Jokes aside, I suspect it is much easier to learn English living in an English-speaking country, as opposed to Russia. And it is definitely easier, at least to me, to learn languages with a fully developed brain (that's a bold statement, isn't it).
