Likely - it's a word you're likely to need!

[@fsm1701]

It's very likely that I will improve my English skills by watching Vicky and Jay's amusing videos.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

We certainly hope so Flor! Thanks for writing!

[@natalibay2334]

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Thanks Natali. That's most kind of you to say.

[@norah5073]

Thank you so much. This video is likely that the most useful video I will see about this topic

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Good use of 'likely' Norah. Thanks for watching.

[@SaadAliArts]

It is likely that my English will improve day by day by watching amazing videos of Miss Vicki and Mr Jay 😘❤️🙏🏻

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

[@Hamza-Shreef]

you are the best teacher, I hope you make more videos about phrasal verbs

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

حمزة عشوش, I'm sure we will be making more phrasal verb videos. They are so useful, aren't they. Thanks so much for watching.

[@Hamza-Shreef]

@@SimpleEnglishVideos yes, they are . i am so happy that you will ; because your way of teaching them isn’t found anywhere

[@borkasiamese4617]

It is unlikely that Vicki made a "likely story" about the snow and storm in Philadelphia, it all seems to have been true :)) Thank you so much guys, it is always so fun to watch your classes!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

You're quite right Borka! That snow storm was real and we grabbed the opportunity to make a video. Jay didn't want to take the camera out because he was worried it would get wet so we shot it with him inside and me on the front door step. He stayed warm and I got cold and wet! Next time I'm writing a script where he goes out and I stay cosy. :-)

[@victoriachurikova7454]

Your likely stories! I like them!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! That's good to hear. Thanks Victoria. :-)

[@Полина-ъ2у6п]

It's very likely that I will see your other videos! Thank you very much!❤

Well done, Полина. Thanks for watching.

[@bushi8928]

If I ate all those marshmallows, it'd be very likely that my belly would grow like that marshmallow after being cooked in the microwave ; ) Thank so much for the video!

Oh great example Amanda. So glad you liked the video.

[@marilena0357]

[@ThuyNguyen-ob8uf]

I really love your couple. Very cute!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Thank you Thúy Nguyễn. Sadly, Vicki passed away on December 20th of last year. You can see the memorial we produced for her colleagues from around the world on this channel. Her son Tom, his wife Yana (both English teachers) are joining me in making new videos for our channel and we hope you'll find them worthwhile. - Jay

[@ahmedshalaby1188]

It seems highly likely that Jay ate all the marshmallows! They look very tempting after getting bigger in the microwave :) It'd do it if I were him :) Brilliant as always!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! Yep, that's what I think to Ahmed! He can never resist a marshmallow.

[@beatricepeter995]

It's very likely I binge watch your videos !

Beatrice, we are so glad you like them. Enjoy the videos.

[@aparecidoferreiravais321]

Wow look at the marshmallow I thought It would melt down !!!! You both are scientists as well

[@Skqueenbee]

I cant wait to try it on🙄

[@Skqueenbee]

Could you explain more about likely ,personally I don't use it

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Yeah, we thought that marshmallow was amazing too, Myun.

[@hwangeuiyoung8454]

Spring is very likely to come soon in Germany. Thanks for the Video!!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Great example! Yes, I think Germany has seen spring earlier this year, though thankfully Philly has been warming up a little since we shot this video.

[@roqayayeyo3429]

thanks a lot for this great video

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

So glad you liked it Roqaya. Thanks for writing.

[@mikesor4661]

It's highly likely one of the best lesson. Vicky was it hard for you to change to miles instead of kilometers in the States?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Thanks Mike. When I was a child growing up in the UK, we used the old imperial system for most measurements, but we'd turned metric by the time I moved to the US, so it was a bit odd to change back. Miles were an easy one though because they are still commonly used in the UK. Traffic signs in the UK, for example, still show distances in miles.

[@leogarciacanizales8422]

I am likely to put in practice this expression a lot.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Well put Leo :-)

[@Skqueenbee]

Great forcasters 😍

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! Thanks Myun.

[@keepwolking72]

Many thanks. Delighted you liked it, Maria.

[@mollietai8946]

It’s (very/highly/extremely/quite) likely that you’ll be back next week. It’s likely to rain today. You’ll be back more than likely. Don’t believe a likely story!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Great examples, Mollie! And yes, we're expecting to be back next week. In fact we have something rather special lined up.

[@Theyoutuberpolyglot]

[@OrigamiTree]

That’s so interesting! I’ve never used “you’re likely to need” before. I’ve always used “you’ll likely need.”

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ah, that's another possible pattern Jenny, and it's more frequent in American than British.

[@darielcarmona]

Hahaha I loved this lesson.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

That's great to hear. Thanks for writing Dariel.

[@inmyopinion3843]

It's very likely to use word likely in my Sentences. Love from India

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! We hops so. Thanks Kartik. :-)

[@ВикторияСкорбатюк]

What is the difference between likely and probably? In which situations I can use only likely or probably ?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Victoria. In terms of meaning there is virtually no difference, so you'd use them in very similar situations. But the constructions we use in sentences with these words are different.

[@steffis4480]

It's more than likely that there will be marshmallows in my shopping basket, when I'm doing groceries later this afternoon :D

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

A perfect example in every way, Stafanie. Correct grammar and a very good thing to have on your list. :-)

[@ashubhai1]

Another great video. You looks great in this winter dress and you've wore the hat which also enhance your beauty.. Is this a true snowfall??

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hello Ashish! The snowfall was real. Philly had a LOT of snow last week. We wanted to capture the moment and I wanted Jay to take the camera outside, but he was worried that the moisture would damage it. We came up with a solution where I stood outside on our front door step and he shot the picture inside from inside our living room.

[@ashubhai1]

Simple English Videos I'm surprised to see the snow fall at this time when summer is coming..

[@countertenor5890]

I live in Florida. So it's unlikely to snow here.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Perfect example Counter Tenor. We'd have loved some Florida heat when we shot that one. It was a very chilly experience!

[@sarithaasish8393]

hi ma'am --------------------boy is likely to pass. is it neither boy is likely to pass Each boy is likely to pass. which one is correct?

Hi Saritha. Both these sentences work, though of course they mean different things.

I need to know the difference between it is and this is . Please❤

[@anilbishtanil866]

Great lesson that I have been waiting for long. But I'm still not sure with the pattern of unlikely. Here are two examples and I wish if you could correct them. i) She is unlikely to come today. ii) It is unlikely that she will come today. which one of the sentences is correct?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hallo Bisht Anil! BOTH those sentence are correct and they are both great examples for likely.

[@dorjpurevenkhmend2155]

I have a question It's ...likely that this novel will win a literally prize. options: a. totally b. deeply c. strongly d. highly they looks so samiliar. I have no idea which one is correct

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

I think you meant a 'literary prize." And in that case, the best choice of those you've listed would be "highly likely." We call this combination a collocation - that is, a common combination of words. Thanks for watching - Jay

[@josedelaluz1657]

Are unlikely and unlike the same or not??

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Great question Jose. No, they are not. Unlike means different from, dissimilar to.

[@raed2178]

Lucky Carter 😂😂😂

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hey, no problem.

[@ngocthainguyen4118]

ít's extremely likely to see Vietnamese learners here

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Another great example! Again, a small change: I'm extremely likely... But this is actually a really good mistake to make because we do use 'It's' as a dummy subject in a lot of sentences with likely. For example, you could say 'It's likely that I'll see some Vietnamese learners here.'

[@Southeng8160]

It's likely that you will fail in the IELTS, due to fact that you don't study enough. It's likely to get 7 band in IELTS if you finish this book. I will pass the exam way more than likely! I do not spend my money for likely incomes. Andd thanks a lot for the lecture (: big and hugeee hugs 🤗🤗
