Hi Emma, when I read one of my English books, There is a word used in one sentence not sounding right to me. “AS 4100 has no specific provisions for determinating forces involved in prying force”. Here determinating sounds weird to me. Determining sounds more comfortable from my point of view. Could you please confirm

[@mdsrwaqas001]

Please don't loose ur beauty and cuteness. M watching ur video after a year and there is a lot of difference in ur look.

[@navjotsharma1181]

PLEASE TELL ME IS THIS CORRECT SENTENCE OR NOT...?? IN WHICH DEPARTMENT YOU ARE WORKING...?? IF I WANT TO ASK TO ANYONE....

[@abdifatahdalmar7431]

What do we get skill-share can you tell the idea that we get it good or normal

[@ankibhrgv3282]

(A half / half ) of the mango has been eaten. I'm confused ? 😔

[@azzahraputri9021]

Fluency for me is when I can deliver what I really wanna say easily and communicate to others without wasting my time to think about how to convey it in English. I really wanna be automatic when I'm speaking English. That's my goal. I want to be advance in English

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

I love this definition :) I hope I can help you achieve that goal! 🙌

[@niedzwiedz667]

same here !!! 100% agree

[@luiaragabrielle1]

I agree with you!

[@ulinej5018]

i wish you to achieve your goal !

[@tesslee7423]

That's exactly what i want to be when i speak...

[@scofieldmed]

For me “being fluent in english” means be able to express myself and understand others, without being stuck or understood other wrongly.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

I really like this definition, Mohammad. 👌

[@Tignoso79]

In my opinion, fluency is when your confidence let words flow directly and automatically from brain to mouth, with no need to think about HOW you say something but only WHAT you want to say. Exactly as you do every time you have to say something in your native language. Language is a tool (actually the first we learn from the very beginning of our life), and as with any other tool you don’t think too much before using it when you’re an expert...you just use it... Of course you need a lot of practice. BTW, Emma you’re great! I really feel comfortable with your way of teaching. You’re clear, neither too fast (I’m not a native speaker) nor too slow (I’m not a dumb)... And I love your radiance!! 🌞 Keep up the good work 💪👍

[@Dancho_ss]

For me fluency means the ability to speak English confidently and without the fear of someone else criticising you (working on my way to fluency)

[@zijia1302]

Your video has saved me from giving up myself and I really want to thank you a lot. Born as a Chinese, I don’t really have the chance to learn how to speak and pronounce English properly for the past 15 years. But it actually doesn't affect me much because I never need to use English to communicate back in my own country. However, things change after I have to study overseas alone as I receive a scholarship offered me to study in Singapore. So I am forced to learn English in order to interact with other people. However, the process of learning English is TRAUMATIC. The school understands that because we do not have strong English foundation, they actually arrange for us English Bridging Class for us and we are actually quite grateful for that. The teacher who is appointed to teach us English keep criticising us that we have ”weird, funny foreign accent” and keep humiliating us in front of the whole class whenever our pronunciation is inaccurate. Although she keeps saying that she criticises us is because she hopes that we can improve, but she NEVER really teaches us how to pronounce the words accurately. I even had several emotional breakdowns after she makes fun of my weird pronunciation in front of the class. After being taught by her, English is like a nightmare for me and every time I try to speak English, I am so self-conscious and nervous, afraid to make another silly pronunciation mistake. However, after watching your video, I feel that I can be more confident, I don't really need to care what she thinks of me as I am learning English for myself. And your videos about the correct ways to pronounce certain vowels and words are really very useful for me to improve my pronunciation. Thank you a lot, without your videos I really don't know how to overcome my fear towards English. 🙏🏻 How much I hope that you are my English teacher.

[@PhuongNguyen-ey8fh]

With me, fluency means I can speak eng naturally, confidently whatever I think and no need to try to translate it

[@balramsahu7948]

For me "being fluent "means speaking confidently without hesitate.

[@ousmanediallo8438]

Fluency is the process of delivering a message with less mistakes and without thinking so long while speaking a language. In another words, it is the ability to communicate freely and be understood by others.

[@xinweiwu8512]

Fluency for me means to be able to communicate with native speakers without feeling any difficulty in language. It also means an 8.5 in IELTS speaking test. And it is not only about the language, but the ability to tell a story effectively to someone. Sometimes I find it hard to tell a story effectively even using my 1st language. But it is important if we want to speak fluently. Therefore, I think, fluency means good language knowledge and good story telling skills.

[@elitesaint9631]

For me fluency means : 1). To be able to deliver thoughts into words effectively 2). To be conscious of what your are speaking

[@ayabouzamita9439]

Fluency for me is when i can speak clearly and confidently without worrying about my mistakes, to speak as a native English-speaker this is my dream i love English soo much and thank u for thus amazing lessons i enjoy speaking English with u Emma ❤️💞😍😍😍

[@ph5948]

Hello Emma! Thank you for the video. As for me, fluency means that I can express my thoughts, my opinion easily, on one hand. On the other hand, it means that I'm able to understand my interlocuter.

[@TheElectromantra]

You speak so clear that I can understand every word you say. Thank you for these lessons, your channel is amazing.

[@bibhutipoddar9770]

For me fluency means being able to fluent in the way I speak English . It's include not making awkward pauses , fumbling and express my opinion in fluent way.

[@farhanahsan4027]

I am angry with myself discovering such a brilliant English teacher on youtube. You made not my day rather my life. Please Emma bear with me because I am gonna ask you so many crazy Questions on your past videos and I want you to give me reply on those comments. Your lecture on gerunds and infinitives was of so much help that I cannot describe in words. Stay blessed teacher.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

[@mohdsyaharudiismail8144]

[@rzajefri7632]

For me ability to have conversation on all fields and be confident, without afraid of making mistakes

[@emilearmando]

Fluency for me is being able to have a natural conversation with a person about the topic at the moment.

[@rsfting]

Hi Emma, I took the TOEIC test two days ago. For me, it's just prepared for job promotion. To be fluent in English, it means I can communicate with the native English speakers just like using my native language, or I can understand the meaning of the English articles or the English TV programs.

[@ayanshareef8839]

For me fluency is the ability to converse with ease and clarity in your words, when you are fluent you are able to speak feeling good without your heart pounding tirelessly, fearing not not make mistakes . It means you are confident enough to maintain a conversation

[@zikoabderezak1828]

for me to be fluent is to speak with anyone without hestating and without translating in your head. it.s just come out through your mouth naturally and to be able to speak and respond about all kind of subject

[@tolnojeanne6559]

For me fluency means, to get words quickly and use them in a conversation.

[@arjunchalise2728]

absolutely correct

[@bogdanr9448]

[@Blackzz-i4g]

To me fluency means speaking naturally without thinking of grammar and vocabularies but both should be there in my conversation

[@lenastarmendy3517]

For me, fluency means being able to say whatever you are thinking without any problems... One day I hope I can be more confident and better to speak and write English. Emma, I've been watching your videos for a while, but just recently ago I have been more confident to actually speak with confidence...soo thank you very much.

[@matinsalimi4410]

Fluency for me is like a non-stop conversation. The ability of relating sentences to each other and connect them.

[@TaMa-xd6ut]

Emma how are you , you are really helping me to improve my English , and I find that you are the solution to the problem I have , greetings from Zimbabwe Africa ..

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

It's so great to hear you say that, Takesure!

[@mustafaerkoc82]

To me, fluency means speaking confidently with little hesitation or speaking without some long pauses in a conversation ☺️

[@simabayat2175]

hello teacher Emma , in my view fluency has direct relationship with expressing our words or ideas to others easily without pause or incomplete sentences. moreover, we should speak fluently by means of knowing about intonation and pronunciation. correctly.

[@tonydambe]

Being able to communicate my ideas clearly and directly when speaking and writing.

[@anisukiasyan6714]

Hi dearest Emma! For me fluency is when you speak without hesitating or translating in your mind, you have a native-like intonation as well, and you read without spelling mistakes.

[@abdelhakjouidi7692]

I admire a way talking and your action you are so beautiful teacher

[@mohitrawat1858]

Fluency means to me to be able to communicate with others without stuttering and and forgetting vocabularies.

[@josekmcmi]

Not too fast, but speaking intelligibly without making mistakes. That's fluency to me.

[@edmundwong6107]

I am gripped with undivided attention to your teaching. You share much needed knowledge on the subject, but your mode of expressing those most valuable information grips my attention firmly when I listen to you. Your expressed emotions and facial expressions are exceptionally supportive to what you are conveying. In learning from you, the personality I have now become connected to as I listen to you is one with which I now also enjoy spending these few minutes.

[@micheledisalvia9905]

I love your English lessons and much more when you speak cause I understand everything almost without subtitles... always thanks for your help

[@nourelhoudakhettache9407]

[@rocioromanperez2905]

You are a perfect teacher. Thank you a lot for explaining this helpful topic.

[@HarryPotter-ts8tl]

[@darling866]

[@jisha1411]

for me "fluency " is able to speak without hesitation, like how i use my native language.

[@Pamchan23]

[@mohamedalhetar1762]

[@giorgiabruno8134]

For me "Being fluent in english" means to be able to speak quickly and to listen an english fast speech. That's it :)

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

Awesome! 🙌

[@babdullah5025]

Giorgia Bruno Fluency is not just about speaking fast because I have a friend who speaks fast but her grammer is a disaster.

[@aquarius4953]

B Abdullah In England natives grammar is a disaster too. Perfect grammar (I don't know what it is exactly and it's certainly not what is taught in school.) to be able to speak like a native ? I don't think so. I even wonder if it isn't like a brake sometimes.

[@aquarius4953]

Giorgia Bruno But I pretty sure in your native tongue some natives speak slowly .

[@hindsbai4781]

For me fluency in English is speaking like a native speaker

[@gabrieladedan1875]

I perceive fluency as a characteristic of the speaker to keep a conversation without verbal interruptions, in a quite relax manner

[@amaliavasilouni3589]

Fluency can be acquired with consistency, time and patience. I think that the most important tool for fluency is to feel good when you are being asked about a matter and you don't get sweat almost like the ease you are talking in your native language. In a natural and unstressed way.

[@kuntalkole2612]

[@hamzzaali3514]

[@kanaklata5098]

"Fluency" means for meee... speaking in a good flow like water, without getting any rock(mistake) in my speaking and anybody listen to my english and say WoW what a great flow in her speaking.

[@nhitruong165]

With me, fluency means I can pass IELTS speaking exam with little worry. More importantly, I can communicate with native speaker confidently, naturally, no pausing or thinking about translate to English without thinking " Am I say wrong" when Im speaking

[@YogaYolex]

I'm keen on Nutrition and Personal Growing and I listen videos about it every time. Beautiful lesson Emma!

[@lindasun5178]

Fluency for me means that when you live this language. You are not aware that you are using a foreign language.

[@EniolaIjaduolagoodnews]

Thanks a Million. I was born in the United kingdom, taken to Africa at age 6, had my primary and secondary schooling there. I came back to live in the United kingdom afterwards having developed a fluent but strong accent. I have lived in the Uk over 30 years and my accent never changed. I have of recent started some voice recordings on podcasting and noticed how awful i sounded compared to many broadcating voices and knew i had to do some intonation adjustments. Through this platform i have begun to adjust my pronounciations. I also listen to professsionals speak on other Media. I have decided to learn a little bit more before i resume podcasting.

[@valansilvera6718]

Ms.Emma you are doing great job.I regularly watch your lesson videos.I inspired a lot from it.It's motivating me to be a english speaker rather english learner.According to me fluency is communicating a language without much effort

[@madushaniranasinghe298]

Thank you very much...I was upset about my English.but now, I am confident.I have been reading my masters in disaster management.

[@MidMo4020]

I just now enthusiastically subscribed to your channel! I’m from almost literally, the center of Missouri. We have what’s best termed, a “Midwestern rural” dialect here. Unless one reads voraciously from childhood or becomes reasonably traveled, our English here can become atrophied for life! You could say when I was a kid, we just went to school to learn the REST of the English language. We only utilized about half😂 I married a German girl when I was a young man and took it upon myself to learn German... if you REALLY wanna truly appreciate the beautiful absurdities of English.. learn another language! Things just jumped right out at me from hearing and putting things a different way.. really.. think about the term to “turn” something “on/off”, “pull over”, our remarkably complex system of societal pleasantries.. the use of “sorry” as you mentioned above is one example. A German I knew once asked me, genuinely wondering, “when Americans ask you how you are doing.. they do not really want to know do they?”

[@economics_hub.]

I watched this video at the playback speed of 1.5 and I was able to understand properly. You speak accurately and fluently also. Fluency, for me, is to be able to understand what the other person is saying when he /she is speaking fluently and also don't get stuck when it's my turn.

[@sihamtakerdoust5270]

Fluency for me is to be able to speak English very good without thinning about words or being shy abt pronunciation and also to have enough vocabulary to use in different discussions. Thanks so much for ur pertinent lessons I really enjoyed watching them. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@magdyyounes927]

In my openion , fluency means the ability to easily speak with native speakers , quite understand what you listen , feel fun when watching movies or listening to songs without the need to wait for the subtitles. It also reflects the desire of being understood when I attend business meetings , seminars or even a job interview .I must mention that fluency comprises the ability of reading newspapers and magazines without looking up for the meaning of many words . It includes writing e mails, business reports as well.,

[@leonardohurtado208]

For me, speaking fluently is answering the questions in an appropriate and understandable way

[@pawelolczak4336]

When we talk about fluency in the context of English learning we shoud take into consideration five basic skills: listening, speaking, writing, reading and of cource the last but not least grammar. While we achieve the satisfactory level to use them practically without any special problem, we can say that we follow to the fluency.

[@vvijayshinde5646]

Dear mam,No doubt about it , your perfect teacher in the class of the spoken English language. carry on, thanks.

[@samiadefdaf2423]

For me being fluent is to talk English like a native speakers;without even thinking or searching the appropriate words and of course with perfect grammar.also be able to communicate with native speakers so i can easily understand them

[@bonifacioaba2639]

There are four types of persons: 1. A person fluent both in speaking and writing in English; 2. Fluent in speaking but poor in writing; 3. Fluent in writing but fair in speaking; 4. Poor both in speaking and writing. For instance, most of the personnel working in a Call Center are articulate in speaking English but that doesn't mean they are fluent. To become fluent, we have to learn the grammar rules, spelling, punctuations, tenses, prepositions, adjectives, adverbs, verbal phrases, the figure of speech (idioms) the native slang (shortened language), among others which take time to learn it. Not to mention the standard phonetic sound cause wrong pronuciation will change its meaning; otherwise, it would cause misunderstanding with the native English speakers.
