Absolutely anna is good teacher and I learned lots of things from her on you tube wow 😁😁😁😁😁

[@nortesur9504]

I like that. People want to be perfect in any language when even natives make terrible grammatical mistakes .. A fan from Colombia South America.

[@luisbar7951]

Anna is the best professor in the world

[@Curly3373]

As a French speaker most words were not difficult to spell but to pronounce them in English is another ball game! Grateful for the lesson 👍

[@lucindawinehouse2002]

Hello Anna . Thanks for the video I have a medical condition known as Cerebral Palsy it affected my spelling ability when I was younger but now I can write perfectly

[@grazynawilczynosek959]

What a wonderful lesson! I am also really impressed by the amazing quality of the video. Thank you, Anna! PS. You look great in red! 😊

[@stunninglad1]

What a super lesson! Many of your commonly misspelled words also featured in my three part series on the same subject. However, making it a three part series wasn't beneficial. The interest wavered off after the fist lesson.

[@EnglishLikeANative]

I find this is the case in more series I’ve made. Still worth doing them but the first one will always have the most interest.

[@stunninglad1]

@@EnglishLikeANative It was annoying as the second part and third parts had so many tough words, like reconnaissance, rhododendron, etc!

[@tarigal-shair5192]

Thank you, it was a great session.💜

[@nofal9334]

Thx ❤️

[@Lita1]

Interesting video Anna English is really hard and one of the hardest things is spelling actually. I liked this video yes!!!!👍😅

[@blueqweenbilkhyun6907]

Minuscule that was a really tricky one. 😉 definite i always used to pronounce it as a long I 😳.Now I'm embarrassed. Thank you 😊 for clearing that out for me

[@diomedestamayo3985]

Very good videos

[@zekibilen1775]

super pronunciation👍

[@francescoantonioamoroso6681]

Thank you my dear. Your smile is contagious. The pronunciation is very hard to digest, but you are really good and clear.

[@vrdacosta00]

I like the word “definite”!... Ex: “He who seeks for methods without having a definite problem in mind seeks in the most part in vain.”👍💞

[@hamlet1976]

Awesome!! I love your lessons. Great and clear pronunciation. Natural, nice and easy to follow videos🤗 Congratulations!! Also I'm happy to see British people also confuse some of these words just like me 😅 Although I don't understand what's the problem with "Restaurant" 🤔 By the way......sorry but I have to admit I cracked up with your mistake while pronunciating "Sixth". It's impossible to say it right!!! 😅 Hugs from 🇪🇸😉

[@zoryanasemenyuk301]

hi, Anna, usefull lesson, thanks, btw red is definitely ur colour 🥰

[@Sauvageonne]

I thought Licence as a noun was "Licence" in British English and "License" in American English. And in both languages, as a verb, it is "to license"...

[@EnglishLikeANative]

You are correct. Thank you 🙏

[@Sauvageonne]

I have a doubt, can we apply tenses to the have to, has to forms, ex:, i have to go, i am having to go, i have had to go,i will have to go, i will have had to go, i will be having to go, i had to go, i was having to go, i had had to go,, please correct me

[@fpevdm9758]

I would have written EMBARRASSMENT and ACCOMMODATE with only one R and M respectively. I thought the word MISCHIEVOUS should be pronounced with the accent on the second I instead of the first one, and I made a similar mistake putting the accent of the word MINUSCULE on the first U instead of the I. Finally I did not know that the X in XYLOPHONE should not be pronounced KS.

All those words are of latin origine and we use them in Italy with the same meanings. It Is so weird.

2001, if you are still interested

[@toadyuk8391]

I was taught to help spell “necessary” to remember it by using a mnemonic “never eat cake, eat Salmon sandwiches” N E C E S S (then “ary”at the end). The one I get wrong is FOREST I often put a second R into FORREST which is wrong. Embarrassment I recall for “two r’s in your ass” which helps get the word right. For accommodate I remember using “a cc of mm helps you live”. Mischievous I remember as “Miss Cheave E Ouse” which helps get the letters right.
