[@mikelozano4741]

I think it should be, In Calgary, the leaves on the trees turns yellow quickly during fall season.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Yes, most of the time people say that.

[@safaribadov2346]

[@sanaaabid1954]

[@MadEnglishTV]

You're welcome! 😃

[@michaelalves-englishlearne5392]

Great job!! Thanks for your videos, they are very useful. I still have difficulty in listening, but I can understand you because your pronunciation is very good.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Thanks! 😃😃

[@louiselake.6170]

Hi Mark. You gave me another challenge and great explanation today~ Thanks. Btw.. For ' I'm lotioning up my skin',,,can preposition 'Up' be changed into 'on' or 'to'? Like.. I'm lotioning on my skin or to my skin. .... ?

[@MadEnglishTV]

Thanks! 😃No, it cannot be "on" or "to" if lotioning is used as a verb. But you could say, "I'm putting lotion on my skin." (noun)

[@louiselake.6170]

@@MadEnglishTV Aha.....I see! Verb lotion goes with 'up' and verb put goes with on.! Thanks a lot. He doesn't like to lotion up his face after washing his face but i always put lotion on my face. Right sentence? ;)

[@MrRameshkunwar]

Hi Mark, Thank you so much for making so many lessons on KZbin. I experience this sort of words (noun being used) by native speaker every other day since I have been to Canada. I understand meaning of them but Often times I am confused if it is correct way. Do you think I can utilize Similar “verbing” on my Future CELPIP or IELTS exam ? I am not sure if it is correct. Such as, can you water flower plants ? I would like to know if you conduct physical test preparation class in Calgary.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Hi Ramesh, Thanks for watching my videos! 😃Yes, I think you can use verbing on your exam if you think it would be suitable. Actually, I'm preparing to move overseas and I stopped teaching private lessons right now. Hopefully in the future I can offer private lessons again! Take care, Mark

[@MrRameshkunwar]

Mad English TV thank you Mark, good luck wherever you head on.

[@mohammadarid5268]

1:02 (What Kind of car is it?) i believe that incorrect, because yellow is color not kind, (What color of car is it?) kind going with (SUV, Cup, sedan)

[@manuelbracho3502]

I was thinking in the way of brand.

[@MadEnglishTV]

You're right. I was trying to say that adjectives answer the question "what kind?" meaning a description of the vehicle. "Yellow Toyota sedan" are all adjectives describing the car.

[@bahijachnitef9720]

It 's the first time I heard we can use these words as nouns verbs and adjectives

[@AnRAY5050]

Well you can bike it also. You nailed this lesson again, Mark. (love from Canada.)

[@MadEnglishTV]

Thanks so much! 😃😃

[@nicolejulien4545]

It's possible to speak of : ought to be done please.

[@easygoing2588]

Hi Sir,Thank you very much for teaching us the tips and tricks for CELPIP. I wanted to ask you a question regarding the CELPIP evaluation as compared to IELTS. Both the tests are equally tough though the format is different. But why is that CELPIP score exactly equal to CLB whereas lower IELTS score is converted to higher CLB score point even though both the exams have same level of difficulty? Because of this the person writing CELPIP is at a greater dis-advantage, isn't that true? Thank you in advance! Venkat

[@MadEnglishTV]

Hmm, that's an interesting observation! It might be true. To be honest, I'm not sure why that is!

[@ЮлияЮхлю]

No haven't. I agree that by learning grammar you can't start speaking english or any other language. You are only getting used to it. We all learn how to speak first and than, many years later, use the grammarbook just for reference to what we already know any only to systematize our knowledge. Here is an example. I used to live with Lithuanian people for couple of years. I hadn't any idea about this lenguage before. But in two years I could understand and speak it. Of course I didn't speak it like a native but still enough for sitting around the dinner table and having a good conversation. Infortunately I've forgotten it for not using it for a long long time. It is amazingly beautiful language, it is very close to our mother tongue we all spoke thousands years ago. The dependence of a meaning of the word on its place in the sentence is very natural for analytical languages and it is far more simple than the synthetic languages or even polisynthetic languages.

[@MadEnglishTV]

You've had great experiences in life! 😃

[@giorgiogallina8161]

Awesome voice! 👍

[@MadEnglishTV]

😃😃

[@shayantanchowdhury7185]

Can you add article before adjective? yellow car=nominal compound .may be i am wrong please clarify.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Yes, an article aways goes before the adjective. For example: a big blue butterfly.

[@maryammonshizadeh7343]

I should add something more: I know that my memory wasn’t related to your question but I just remember that and share with you. It was very funny situation and I told my teacher and every one laughed at me.

[@MadEnglishTV]

😃😃

[@manuelbracho3502]

I've never heard "subway it" or "bus it"...... Not even when I was living is the US...... Is it a Canada thing?

[@MadEnglishTV]

Yes, it could be a Canadian thing. I'm not sure!

[@maryammonshizadeh7343]

Hi Mark Actually I’m always confused 🤷‍♀️ about English language, you are right it’s: Mad English 🤪😂

[@MadEnglishTV]

Haha 😃

[@LunasBlog0602]

My favourite colour is purple.

[@kamleshsainiindia]

I can autorickshaw it to work. So sad I can't motorbike it work. I have a motorcycle. I used to be confused but I have a common sense to get meaning of English word.

[@usanee1978]

I bike it to exercise three times on week. Is it ok.😆

[@MadEnglishTV]

We would say "bike it" when we are going somewhere. With excise, there is no destination, so we have to say, 'I go biking three times a week to exercise."

[@usanee1978]

Mad English TV Thank you.Teacher.😁

[@灯盏-c4w]

I am often confused of english grammar! If english native speakers don't know the grammar clearly how learners should learn the language? Is it just by feeling?

[@santoslende5788]

[@gladysgriffin7347]

Bus is a noun

[@maryammonshizadeh7343]

When I was in college , we had some lessons about gun using and our teacher say something about bad situation and he spoke all the time about magazine and I was completely confused because I thought : way a magazine is important to police 👮‍♀️ maybe some important thing wrote in magazine and I finally our teacher got a magazine of gun and put it on weapon. And i find my way in meaning of that. All that time I thought because of my poor English understanding I lost some of story but it was my vocabulary problem.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Haha, that's funny! 😃😃
