Great videos and thank you need to study as often as possible for no errors to get better because I know those were some of the easier ones and I appreciate these grammar quizzes for my abundant of studies to learn not just for structure but accuracy I could have gotten none wrong but -2 Again, thank you for great quizzes for studies too therefore excellent learning videos to sharpen the grammar focus which is not as easy as most people might think or assume a lot of focus and serious learning I shall get better with each of your excellent sides explanations which was even a more bonus to the quizzes Thank you 😊

[@EnglishTestBlog]

Thank you so much for your kind comment. 😘

[@heathersisto1119]

Thank you for great learning lessons in English that allow the brain to learn in multiple areas of English because English has been with many many years of studying for me and so many other that either learn it with ease or have to learn as many lessons as possible in the many different areas of it to make it make sense my learner mind and everyone else learning it Threw out my years and years of adult learning with Roth year straight in most recent years with several tutors with my many different subject all part time because of ongoing health issues just as long and not allowed to study fill time ; which no person's with health issues are because have to focus on health appointment and everyday thing that go with the many different health issues And I said all that to say whenever I learn of teachings like these I am very appreciative because most teachers teachers teach one thing at a time which is good too but I had to be tutored for years a few days a week just to learn how to do that so again When there are lessons like yours that present those amazing sentences that cause one to learn no matter if the question that needs an specific answer Looking at how the sentence is written gives time to study too and think in other areas of the sentence and I know that is what answering s quiz is about but I learn doing that too after first answering the quizzes Looking a how the sentence is out together is not easy for me and dividing into parts sometimes get confused which tense but now I try to just visualize a tense line Like conversation start , and what else is it doing in it , like is it the same or changing while the different parts are doing what it does Kinda like the bicycle or chamber method The subject and what kind of verb is it or should I have said what the verb is doing or is it a passive sentence which are some serious study for me but I focus on first , second and third person until I get those sentences learned better because reading those sentences build reading too All sentences create better reading and that is why I try so hard with learning as many different sentences as possible and quizzes do that too , build how to read the sentences which I spend most mu study days trying to do because I enjoy book clubs to try to be a better comprehension reading but I got get better a sentences before getting back into another book club Alright I think I chatted with hopefully not to much chat but just trying to say how amazing and good it feels to have videos that give so much satisfaction in learning sentences and it's has to do with how it is like these videos are quizzes that are great And the way it's taught is amazing thanks to all that make it possible and structure the sentences in ways that even if do feel confident with answering at that moment because learning something about the sentence in many ways and knowing to answer the question as correct as possible keeps the mind of good thing toes that I appreciated and want to always say thank you for such great sentence teaching that builds greater reading too Thank you so very much for teaching minds to learn while learning to take quizzes that strengthen test taking better when test studies have to be focused quizzes strengthen and show what we think or thought you know and what to learn better too with these learning videos 🤗 ...

[@heathersisto1119]

@Roxana Sattari no , not really ! I am diagramming most of my sentence studies which involves a lot of constant thinking without writing and everytime the writings happens it's off in so many ways but the teachers have explained it's apart of studying diagramming sentences and the much much more I do to better my comprehension of reading Which I am hoping when I invest additional years with the same English studies just maybe that is gonna bring the reading to much better grades like I notice a lot after I have a break threw with certain sentences that hold me in thinking like semesters and course long studies but most people do not think of a sentence being that much of learning but it includes a lot of focus and to know it's correct structure with parts of speech and so many of the elements of the parts of speech I know it seems like out of control writing but my minds only allows me to structure as much as it's studying and again I am with health conditions that only allow part time studies Full times studies are not the same because full time ; whatever subject or subjects they study has more hours of being able to study it , as a part time is twice as long but not losing focus and having lessons like these videos that strengthen I believe every part time enjoys whenever a lesson shows more than one area of the subject Even thou it's quizzes it's taught in a way that much more of English can be learn with it ; while strengthening how to organize thoughts Something like that and I too am a native speaker of English and my goal is to be better with speaking it and that is complete different lesson I have to learn too because it's apart of the comprehension skills for me trying to make better grades Making the better grades is what I most focus on, and the many different ways I try to do , is with videos such as these quizzes that are fantastics for brain training for grades... And I appreciate your honest feed back and let's just keep learning from the quizzes to get those better grades for me that is I enjoy learning from good quality of learning that has some strong sentences that give good grades I might have been able to say that with some better structure but I have so many subjects I try to keep the grades getting better in all them Again, thanks for the chat and chat with you on the next learning quizzes videos ... 🤗

My score is 10/ 12 i should review the list of regular and irregular verbs my wrong answer is number 4 also number 12 thank you so much 👍

[@EnglishTestBlog]

The correct one is fled that is the past simple of flee. The past simple of find is found, not finded. And The past simple of feed is fed, not feeded. Pay is an irregular verb and its past simple form is paid. Study is a regular verb and we create its past simple by adding -ed to the base form. Please note that If the verb ends in a consonant and -y, we change the -y to -i then add -ed.
