Wow,this is a lesson.

[@percyrvx]

Thank you for your useful tips. I have a question: Are the following sentences interchangeable, or is there a difference between them? - I look forward to hearing from you. - I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

[@EnglishwithVahid1]

The sentences "I look forward to hearing from you" and "I'm looking forward to hearing from you" are similar but have a slight difference in formality and emphasis. "I look forward to hearing from you." This sentence is more formal and commonly used in professional correspondence, such as emails or letters. It's straightforward and polite. "I'm looking forward to hearing from you." This sentence is slightly less formal and feels more conversational. It conveys a sense of ongoing anticipation and might be more commonly used in personal communication or in professional settings where a slightly less formal tone is appropriate.

[@percyrvx]

@@EnglishwithVahid1 thank you, very clear explanation

[@oo-mg1hn]

Thank you so much its very helpful video.. English is not my first language and people are making fun of my pronunciation coz i don't know how to pronounce the right way and i find pronouncing words are very tough.. Could you please give me some suggestions or trick how to pronouncing words correctly????

[@Jaffark346]

[@yoargentino2571]

Alex, es para saber si correcto decir: "What did you go downtown for?" y que la respuesta sea "For watch a movie" o "For watching a movie"

[@engvidAlex]

“What for?” is another way to ask “Why?” “What did you go downtown for?” means “Why did you go downtown?” I would say “To watch a movie” in this case. You could technically say “For watching a movie” (preposition + gerund), but it’s not common in cases like this one.

[@germainkone9029]

Thanks so much. So « I am looking »forward to doing , or « I look » forward to doing ? Thanks 🙏

[@julianaoliveira7695]

After Preposition TO comes ing, always

[@EnglishwithVahid1]

Both "I am looking forward to doing" and "I look forward to doing" are correct, but they differ in formality and usage context, similar to the examples you provided earlier. "I am looking forward to doing" This form is in the present continuous tense. It is slightly less formal and conveys a sense of ongoing anticipation. It is often used in spoken English or in written communication where a conversational tone is appropriate. Example: "I am looking forward to meeting you at the conference." "I look forward to doing" This form is in the simple present tense. It is more formal and is typically used in professional or official communication. It is direct and polite. Example: "I look forward to discussing this further in our meeting."

[@janelledelossantos5783]

"I want to sleep now." This is my example of gerund.🥰

[@DmitryFadeiev]

I wonder 🤔 why you are drawing arrow up like you want to exclude 'to' including instead?

[@malik7211i2]

Hey, can you tell me whether the bare infinitives in the following sentences are used as Noun, Adverb or Adjectives (since bare infinitives are non-finite verbs). Let him sit there. Make him do that.

[@osegredodalotofacil]

Lovely!!! I just didn't understand why in the example 'I went downtown[...]' it wasnt 'I went TO downtown' [...] ???

[@engvidAlex]

“Downtown” can be used as an adverb. Think if it like “here” or “there.” Other words which can be used like this: Overseas Abroad Home Uptown Downtown

[@osegredodalotofacil]

@@engvidAlex Appreciate, Cheers!!!

[@mkelvinriskiramadhan3431]

[@janelledelossantos5783]

Sir. My another example: 🎉Java wants to see his pet fish. or 🎉Java wants to saw his pet fish. Which is correct sentence?

[@AudiophileO-i8r]

I eat before resting Is this correct?

[@engvidAlex]

Yes, that’s fine grammatically. 👍 I think it would be more common to say “I rest after eating.”

[@Youssef-ny7dz]

I wonder why nearly all english teachers whether they be foreigners or natives focus on mistakes in their lessons. Foreign language teaching methods and approaches advise not to make a mistake as the starting point. Regards to everybody learning this comment

[@engvidAlex]

Good question! It’s a way for a learner to refine their knowledge and skills. Perfection is not the goal-gradual improvement is. These types of mistakes are also good to be aware of if you’re using English at the professional or academic level. Otherwise, a lot of careful reading and a lot of careful listening will help learners to develop these structures naturally.

[@nmg1909]

I pick up a lot of corrections from this style of teaching. In the past, gerunds and infinitives used to be a problem for me, but after watching many of these types of videos, I have understood gerunds to be (V + doing something, e.g., He likes doing something (eating)) and infinitives (V + to do something, e.g., He likes to do something (eat)).
