Oh my goodness what a merge

I conflate all lizards into one group without -classification- *classifying* them -on- *into* species. Chameleons *is* one of them which -do- *does* not combine in my mind with other usual lizards because it has a feature -as- *of* merging with -surrounded- *surrounding* objects in colour. If I am not mistaken a cuttlefish can change own colour too. -Plumbum- *Lead* is one of the most malleable metals so it definitely easy to fuse with others. I think macaronic style is a sublime example of mingling languages. With time foreign words *are* melded with common collocations *and* become indistinguishable from *the* real native words of a language.

expecting more British English videos.Hats off o your wisdom, keep going

[@englishwithbatayneh5908]

I ve showed this video for my students. I am in the process to build and boist their vocabulary reservoir. I added somerelated vocabulary to each one . To give u a hint of that let me list some examples The word merge originally meant to sink , dip or soak. This is the etymological notion of such a word. It is related to othere word such as immerse, submerge, emerge ( literally to raise or come up( . Fuse etymollogically denotes the act of melting or pouring together. It is related to fusion, profuse , diffuse, confuse , refuse , futile, transfuse

[@FairyWeatherMan]

A lot of useful words. Thank you!

[@matenuta1]

Dear Henry, Could you please make a video explaining the meaning and application of the word "Snagging"? Thanks very much! Cheers

Canada, during the 1980s, thought of itself as a patchwork of immigrant cultures. The US, however, has always thought of itself as a melding, or merging, or fusing of cultures into the American "melting pot."

Teacher....I' m just your humble follower....but latlely you' ve got such long videos...I prefer the shorter ones...one word or expression at a time....this helps me keep focused...longer videos....don' t.....I don' t know if that is the case with some other users....it' s just a feedback....don' t take it into account if you don' t want to....or think it is wrong....god bless all your efforts....god bless us all

[@englishwithbatayneh5908]

Sir alex we like the longer version of ur videos. By the way what matters is the content of these videos . The longer videos discuss synonyms of one concept and give us the subtle diffrences between them and how to use each one in the correct context. We all know that the longer versions require mamoth effort from our alex to make.

[@FairyWeatherMan]

My humble opinion: both options (long and short vids) are good. Shorter ones are excellent to learn some simple words whose meaning is often straightforward, while the longer videos are crucial to address more complex topics and the nuances that different words often have. This video is a perfect example: you talked about 7 different verbs to express the concept of 'combination and mixing of things', and you also provided some ADDITIONAL pieces of information, that are extremely valuable to me. I am referring to: - a 'merger' vs a 'take over' - different meanings of fuse as a noun: the 'fuse' of the bomb and the 'fuse' of an electric equipment that may be expressed with different terms in other languages (like in my case), so I am very happy to learn that! Moreover, these sort of long lessons are good for creating a 'context' thus mimicking the way words are learned by native speakers (again the examples of merger/take over and fuse are good for this!) . This approach is, IMHO, the best to learn a foreign language.

[@faysalaadan1842]

I wanna ask you some questions please?

[@shpien]

Converge, alloy.

[@shpien]

@@iswearenglish "By nonsense he meant fancy; and truly it is probable she was as free from any alloy of that nature, as any human being not arrived at the perfection of an absolute idiot, ever was." Ch. Dickens, Hard Times

[@ShaydaNejad]

Aggregate and alloy are other synonyms.

To merge=to combine slowly
