Hello Teacher Emma! That was so thoughtful of you by making this video lesson. You gave me what just what I needed. The lesson was illustrated in a professional way. Synonyms were given for each linking word. This is very helpful for our understanding. Now, I feel confident of their usages and meaning in sentences. You are an angel! Would mind my asking, is it possible to put on your bucket lists vocabulary lessons about words and phrases, such as for all intents and purposes, by virtue of, by the same token, in this/that respect? I very confused about these. Please and thank you. Wish you all the of luck in you endeavour! Best regards, Fazil 😴❤

Hi Fazil, you're very welcome! Thank you for the positive feedback 🤗 I'll add those words and phrases to my list! Best wishes, Em

'If you bring', or 'if you are bringing'

I prefer using inversion when it comes to as soon as. No sooner had I received your notification than I started watching your video.

Nice! That's a step further in terms of formality 👑😊

@@EnglishWithEm What do you do? Do you take KZbin as a profession?

[@EnglishWithEm]

@@I_am_Harsha Unfortunately not. It only pays around 2 euros per day at this point. I'm an English teacher. I teach business, general, exam, and academic English. At the moment I'm also working on creating an online English course. How about you?

[@JamaniTJohnson]

Here's my sentence: As far as my Mom and I left the store, we drove home safety.

[@EnglishWithEm]

Hi Jamani! 'As far as' means 'concerning' or 'regarding' and is followed by a noun. It can also mean 'in my opinion' or 'to the extent that'. In that case, it's followed by 'I know' or 'I'm concerned'. In your example, 'As soon as' works. It means that immediately after you left the store, you drove home safely 😊🌻

[@freddiemercury8700]

Emma, my apologies if I disturb you again. Is : as much as formal than but ?

[@EnglishWithEm]

No worries! Yes, it's more formal than 'but'. The structure is also different. 'As much as' is placed at the beginning of the first clause. 'But' is placed at the beginning of the second.

[@freddiemercury8700]

I cannot thank you enough, but I wish I could 😃🤣😄😂😁

Hi, 👋👋👋 Emma, a lovely teacher, I am aware of that you are from the UK🇬🇧. But Are you English and British, Welsh and British, northern Irish and British and Scottish and British??? I guess you are English and British, inhabiting England.😃😃😃....................................................................................................................."All my brothers got that gas. And they always be smoking like a rasta(sta)" enciated by post Malone, an American singer. According to me "be smoking" is an informal English. It is a present continuous tense. I don't think it's a subjunctive mode. Do you also think like me???

[@EnglishWithEm]

Hi Danniel, yes, I'm English British. I'm from Hampshire, just south of London. 'They be...' is grammatically incorrect, but quite common. The correct form would be 'They are always smoking...' Another example of something that's very common but not correct is 'ain't'. It can mean 'haven't, hasn't, isn't, aren't, am not' - I ain't hungry = I'm not hungry. I ain't gone none = I haven't got any. Some people consider language like that to be low class, but it's just another form of expression. As a learner, it's important to understand as many forms of spoken language as possible. Just don't use it in formal writing!

[@Nicolas-7572]

Hello,🙏🙏🙏 A) with my snow pants on, I grabbed the sled B) I,with my snow pants on, grabbed the sled. Is "B" correct too?? ........................................................................................................................................................................ C) shouting his name, I found him (correct as well as modifying the subject "I". D) I found him, shouting his name. ( I think as I put a comma (,) , it Is also modifying the subject " I" not "him". What is your opinion on "D"?? Should I avoid writing the "D" number sentence???********************** In another way, I consider although it has a comma yet it's ambiguous with that people will think I want to give an extra piece of information regarding "him" while speaking with someone. That's why I think I should avoid writing the D number sentence if I would like to modify the subject " I".

[@EnglishWithEm]

Hi, yes, B is also correct. I agree about D. Grammatically, both C and D are OK, but it does sound ambiguous. I think you are right to avoid it.
