The correct phrase is “by accident.” While “on accident” is sometimes used informally, particularly in American English, it is not considered standard or grammatically correct in formal writing.

While "on accident" is commonly used in informal speech, it is not considered grammatically correct in standard English. The correct phrase is "by accident." Why "by accident" is correct: "By" is the standard preposition used to indicate an unintentional action or event. Example: "I spilled the drink by accident." "On accident" in informal speech: Many native speakers, especially in informal contexts, might say "on accident," but it is generally regarded as non-standard or colloquial English. In more formal contexts, it's best to stick with "by accident." So, while you might hear "on accident" from time to time, using "by accident" is the grammatically correct choice.

It's not correct to say ON ACCIDENT yet Americans use it just as the opposite of on purpose and it catches on because they all hear it, repeat it and accept it. BY ACCIDENT is ✓ On Accident is ×

British people ALSO say "made out of". The dialect is not an excuse, every English-speaking country uses that expression. Even if Lucy only teaches British English, she can't say that the phrase "My wedding ring is made out of gold" is not correct. That's just misleading for students

"It sounds right" is not a way of discriminating what is 'wrong' or 'right'. There are grammar rules to determine that. Some uses of English are changing such as 'less' and 'there's' used for contable nouns. Not grammatically correct ... yet. 'Lie' and 'lay' are confused by native speakers, but just because they're used badly a lot doesn't make them right. So, it's not 'nonsense'. Your title will get you more clicks though.

Yeah you're right, all those are mistakes and natives already know that BUT they're used to speaking with those mistakes even though they know they're speaking incorrectly BUT they don't care because it's their own language and they can speak it any way they want, we, as learners, have to learn what's correct and what's not, as simple as that buddy.

Ig the difference lies in standard American English (or British). There are standard textbook explanations which you should learn. But there are hundreds of millions of people all around the globe who speak English, therefore such variations are inevitable. Is it textbook English? No. Is it incorrect? No. Depends on whether you wanna sound colloquial and get your point across or grammatically right, which can be very significant in certain circumstances. I don't totally agree with Kevin, since he kind of attacks other creators. Mostly rightfully though. And I also think it's good, since people sometimes doubt themselves too much in even such small things as "of / out of / from / with", which can be discouraging. When in reality, it doesn't really matter if you just want to talk. As he said that nobody uses "lay" as the V2 form of the verb "lie". That is not true. People use it. You can hear it. It doesn't only exist in books.

I think the reason some people think there is one correct way to say something is because most of these usages of words and phrases is generally new. native speakers tend to drop common words which have been used for a long time as archaic or old fashion and coin new ones. I think this is what is at play here. Besides, most notable English speakers are the English and the Americans. they have a lot in common but also a lot is different. some prepositions usages in England differ from those in America. "different than" is considered correct in the USA but wrong in English. i guess because it evolved in the USA and has been used for a long time now that it is considered correct. For the English or the British, it will take some time. I guess my point here is that while some people use English plainly wrongly, some use it seemingly wrongly but correct due to a different context which may not be familiar with a certain person or group.

Thanks in advance for answering 👍. Anyway I'd like Kevin to explain the differences among those expressions or verbs. 👍.

While I like English with Lucy, I was also confused about the preposition „From” being incorrect.

This shopping bag was made from my old jeans, something like that.

Hi Kevin, I think this video is confusing. Lucy's rules are restrictive, but they aren't entirely wrong. They still provide non-native speakers with some guidance. For instance, you discussed "made of gold" vs. "made out of gold," but you didn’t explain why "made from gold" or "made with gold" wouldn’t work in that context. Does this mean you agree with Lucy on that?

I just wonder which source material is considered to be the one and only, both for US and UK "languages". In France, A.F. "L'académie française" was created to be just that, but language is an elusive subject, always evolving and cross-breeding with slang and foreign languages, otherwise it is a dead language, primarily an oral communication tool, which has to be followed by its written transcription, not mentioning the neighbouring countries + ex-colonies variations (such as EN/UK/US/...). So, even A.F. choices in French are debatable, controversial, and political ! I doubt there is only one absolute reference for any language, and using movies/video dialog is a random one, even if these are examples of "native use" "usual use", but I think this is debatable. I wish there was a more balanced way to present a language, showing both current grammatical references (dictionaries,...) and usual current references (which by the way are full of errors - from which some of them will become the norm). So please, stop this war, use a more balanced way. (I am not a language teacher, just a languages fan, don't shoot me).

It depends on intonation. With a certain, emphatic intonation, Tom looks pretty tired can mean "Tom looks very tired; indeed, his level of tiredness is remarkable." With ordinary intonation, it just means "Tom is moderately tired-tired enough to matter, but his level of tiredness is not especially remarkable." Decent , adjective. conforming to the recognized standard of propriety, good taste, modesty, etc., as in behavior or speech. Synonyms: decorous, proper, seemly. Rip off : Usually it refers to an incident in which a person is overcharged for something, or receives goods or services not of the standard expected for the price. A ripoff is usually distinguished from a scam in that a scam involves wrongdoing such as a fraud; a ripoff may be considered excessive, but not illegal. Lay : a. : to put or set down. lay your books on the table. b. : to place for rest or sleep.
