You should have put curb instead of delegate

[@OlesiaHramiak]

I have a lingering effect on my English from this channel! I indulge in watching more than one video a day. Sometimes it can be tough to carve out some time and actually watch them, but I delegate a lot of tasks to make my life easier. I burn the midnight light because of my exams and you help me a lot by doling out progressive vocabulary. I will try to go easy on myself in order not to be prescribed any heavy medicine by doctors. I am plagued by the amount of disinformation while surfing the Internet. I would love to pinpoint what piece of information is worth my attention. I loath uncontrolled situations so I am keen to curb at least something!

[@MP-me5vl]

[@davidivlev1294]

Great video! I am fluent in two languages English and Russian, so I consider myself a native speaker of two languages because I speak Russian and English every day. To be honest, my brain constantly thinks in English and I know idioms, proverbs and slang. However, I speak American English and I prefer the American accent because it is one of the best. I work as an English teacher, but I only have one student and he said that thanks to me, he already learned more words in English easily and his mom is very grateful, and said that I am the best teacher for her son. I am glad to hear that. I’ve never had a professional teaching experience, but I always say: Always live, always learn. ( Век живи, век учись.) -It’s a Russian proverb. Equivalent English proverb live and learn. Being an English teacher is a demanding job and many people learn English because this is an International language and it makes this life easier for others when they know and speak the language. When I’ll have other students, I can teach them English or Russian. ☺️✍🏻😇

[@MaquiagemparaEles]

Hello, Wes. For some languages, especially the ones which came from Latin, like Portuguese, some C2 words are not really C2 because they are similar. Prescribe = prescrever. Very common word, a basic student with A2 level would get the meaning (sometimes even someone who doesn't speak English at all). The same aplies to delegate, which is delegar in Portuguese. It's not a common word, more used by people with some knowledge, but, if they had that knowledge, they would be able to understand it, even though, they werent able to speak English at all.

[@VitorH1612]

Very well put here. We, native speaker of languages derived from Latin, have this advantage. For English native speakers, they are not words they are familiar with until they reach a higher level of education.

[@mastermindlinguistics]

Well this advantage (!) can also be a misery due to false friend words.Beginners shouldn' t be left on their own so that they don't make such errors.
