Adam, I Cannot stop repeating that you have an incredible teaching method and very clear pronunciation which is pretty understandable for International apprentices. Thanks again for lessons, we are all appreciate it

[@user-nx5kp7ry9n]

I agree!!!!

[@HeijiRBLX]

Agreed

[@siavashbahreini1282]

Hello Adam, you are among the very best English teachers I have ever known. I enjoy your lessons and also have a pleasure using all the knowledge I gain from your videos. There is also another thing I wanted to tell you; one reason that I truly love your teaching is that you always remind me my father who passed away and left the world when I was only 3 years old. The first time I found your channel and watched your video I couldn't stop crying. Now I'm glad to have found you. I hope you always be happy and well with your beloved ones. Thanks very much for all great job you do. 🌹🙏

[@ElMoscas114]

I love how he spells out all of the details so easy to understand. So thanks a lot for sharing this useful video.

[@Saha9800]

Hi Adam, if possible, please also explain the difference between "in which and where" "at/on which and when" in your upcoming videos. Is it correct to say: "The book where she discusses..." instead of "The book in which she discusses... "?

[@fredylopez2477]

- the book where she discusses = there's a specific book WHERE we're talking about something and we mention that something in the whole book. - the book in which she discusses = there's a specific book IN WHICH we're talking about something in a specidic part of the book. - Well that's the way I see it. I would say that both sentences convey the same idea, that's to say they're synonyms.

[@fyoubeach]

Hi Adam! Your videos hit right into the target. I've been having problems understanding this structure recently, but here you are! Thanks a lot!

[@user-nv3ru1dq2d]

Nice to see you again, Adam! 😊

[@andreamarino85]

This is a syntactic construction that I use frequently, especially in my native language, so I'm glad you proposed it as an alternative to more conventional sentences. The test was very challenging indeed. Thank you!

[@user-nn6nl7zv2b]

I feel elated because with this video i have finished all the grammar about clauses i have studied adjective ,noun, adverb clauses ,infinitive clauses and today this is the last topic of clauses thanks you Adam 😅

[@bas3995]

Thank you a lot, Sir 😊😊😊

[@mardukdavid3222]

Hi Adam .Great work ,Keep going. I have been into Etymology of English words.Interestingly many of English words evolved from Tamil words.Just sharing a few. "Ari Mathipu" became Arithmetic. "Ari"(அறி) mean Know and "Mathipu" (மதிப்பு) mean Value.Arithmetic mean Know Value. "Pala" became Plus > Ply > Poly. Pala(பல) mean Many. "Maga Mathipu" became Mathematic Mathematic mean Great/Big Value. Maga(மகா) mean Great/ Big > Mega Etu(ஏத்து) Mathipu(மதிப்பு) became Estimate. Etu mean Increase and Mathipu mean Value. Estimate mean Increase Value. The word "Value" is from "Vilai" Vilai(விலை) mean Value. Kal kulaithal(கல் குழைத்தல் ) became Calculate . Kal(கல்) mean Pebble and Kulaitjal is Mix. Calculate mean Counting of Mixed Pebbles. Di Vedu became Divide . Di mean two and Veddu mean Chop/ Cut. Divide mean Cut into 2.

[@AbdAlawadhi]

It is an awesome explanation 😊😊😊

[@zakariayahia9926]

Thanks 👍.

[@avezl]

Thank you so much 😊

Interessante. Isso também há em português. Chamamos de "oração subordinada adjetiva". Ela começa com um pronome relativo, em frente ao qual (aqui já ocorre isso) pode haver preposição.

[@dr.chrisketo7193]

Super! Danke!

[@mehrisheykhu]

Hi Adam ,thank you very much this for theching ,fantastic

[@paolacedeno9365]

I really struggle with this … it’s so confusing, please Adam more classes and more examples. 🙏🙏😄😄😄

[@merolovely5169]

You’re the best :)

[@claradiazalvarez8898]

Hi Adam, I love your videos!! Do you have a video about reduced adjective clauses?

[@MoeMoe-oe5bi]

For we readily understand your lessons, we wish you explained some demonstratives information about syntax, which has some interchangeable (nested) lessons. Thank you, Mr. Adam.

[@charleslovehewitt4393]

Adam, as usual another excellent lesson. By the way.... you look great in that blue tshirt....

[@ankansamanta3303]

Sir, could you please make a video about the mixing of tenses?

[@abhijeetkushwah2694]

Sir, you have used comma in defining relative clause, is it correct ?

[@huynguyeninh1217]

- Hi Adam, I have a question. - What if i use : The book WHICH she discusses her long career, is a real eye-opener => Does the meaning of this sentence have any difference compared with your original sentence in the lesson? Thank you for answering .

[@barsgul8175]

Hi Adam, first of all, I want to thank you because of these extremely useful lessons, especially Ielts ones. However, I have a problem, which I want to consult you about. I am currently preparing Ielts and my reading results are mostly between 35 and 30 which is good for me. But sometimes I can't even make 10 correct answers. It depends on how much I understand the questions If I understand I can do good, If not I can't. What should I do please help me. My exam is on 7th July.

[@Sayak363]

Sir can you please teach us about tense. Means use of tense 🙏 please.

[@gulyoratursunova9055]

Can you explain them with more examples,please?

[@puspenchowdhury6426]

Can you please tell me why you use commas before and after the subordinate clauses? Can these sentences be treated as complex ones ?

[@bas3995]

Dear sir The part of the sentence enclosed between commas, can be removed and still the remaining independent clause will render the full meaning. The adjective clause can also be made into a new sentence suitably.

[@ManojKumar-fm8mm]

we use comma in a non defining relative clause

[@worldking1348]

Gap yo

[@sujaksujatha3278]

Is that "as" needed before Princess Leia? Please clarify. Thanks.

[@hlyanhtetmaung9]

Hi Adam! Is the following sentence correct? There might be some situations, in which reception staffs might deal with customers who have not outgoing personality and angry customers, in which reception staff forego up-selling.

[@dr.alexsmith2616]

What is the best english word book name sir please?

[@benjaminrijo6541]

Bien

[@vounsoumnasalehkebzabo2907]

hello sir how are you?

[@leetimothy3244]

It is quite difficult to use. For me, I would say, "The most rememberable role of her is Princess Leia". It is more straight forward and easier understand.

[@vladimirkalugin7287]

Can anyone please explain ?! In the sentence "The book, in which she discusses her long career, is a real eye-opener" why do we need commas? Isn't that a defining clause?

[@vladimirkalugin7287]

In other video there was a sentence "The man who lives next door is a doctor". No commas.. Aren't these sentences similar?

[@SargisG]

I also can't understand why that adjective clause is not classified as a defining (identifying) clause. In my opinion, "The book" without that clause doesn't sound specific enough.

[@baseertarani1975]

Hello sir

[@laurenarndt464]

Prepositions need an object after them; however, sentences can end in a preposition. "What are looking for?"

[@leylaninismod6291]
