For those of you who didn't quite understand about being 'trolleyed'. More often than not, when you go into a supermarket here the trolley has four wheels that don't go together in a straight line but go wherever they want, so you end up going all over the place as when you are drunk.

I tought to be good at grammar in school,college and basically every English education found in my country. But this man said in 1:40 , to forget the grammar. I love this guy already. Well in regards of conversation, how different a formal ( work environment, etc) and informal (social, etc) situation is. How fascinating.

Hi.There. I am not English native speaker ,I have just been relearning English these 5 years ,and almost by my own .I took some English online classes for first 2 years ,the rest I learnt it by self-learning, such as watching online English videos which were made form this wonderful teacher --Tom and other teachers(you are all very kind,friendly,warmhearted,diligent，talent at teaching English…Thank you all for these wonderful videos), read English books almost every day , watching English films online frequently and so on. Now I’d rewritten some pieces of lyrics of songs and sung them ..They were for people getting through the dreadful pandemic all over the world .I hope I could ispire peolpe more positive and optimistic by the special lyrics and singing. I’d done my best, at least I tried it .I hope that would be a good example for you all who are following Lucy’s English class and learning English online all over the world ,I hope that would be a inspiration and stimulation for you all . I’d posted these songs online.Such as some Chinese songs:《感谢》、《希望日红日》、《春节在哪里》《中国欢乐颂》，English songs :《let’s make our lives lovely》，《Let’s unite together to make the world lovely 》《we will regain joy pretty soon》，for children《Little baby we love you 》was for children…(they were on my KZbin ,Facebook account and my Microblog acount: 18688819328 as well, please take a look at them if you have time ）… Please forgive me being rude .Because I am so earnest to spread those positive songs .I’d really aprreciate you all if you can spread the positive songs I’ve posted on my account over the internet, such as Facebook ,KZbin ,Twitter or whatever you got .If people can hear it , It will possibly make people regain faith,strength and joy ,to relieve upset ,pain and worries. Thank you for your time and help . Lady Zheng 2021-2-26
