[@svitlanaradzevych1153]

Thank you very much for the episode. I enjoyed a lot watching. Actually, I watched it like a movie. You played like actors. And also I have not only learned new vocabulary, but some interesting details about the topic. Here in Ukraine we may be can not differentiate the genres of the films that exactly- I thought of the last Ukrainian film, that really impressed me. The name is Pamphir. It’s about like criminal situation in the rural remote (at those soviet time) mountain part of the near western border. I can say it is like folk action, I don’t know.😊

[@highlevellistening]

That's what's great about movies, there are so many genres and so many great ideas out there, I really like thrillers and actions, so maybe I would like Pamphir! Thanks so much for joining us in class and sharing your experience! We really appreciate it.

Hi ,thank you for your online class What does " Im movie snab " means ?

[@highlevellistening]

[A snob] is a person who is quite knowledgeable about a topic *and* they only like very high quality versions of that topic. Also this person often doesn't like "popular" things, because they think that anything popular cannot be "truly" high quality. So a movie snob is maybe someone who only watches Oscar-winning movies, or movies that get 5 stars from critics, and they would *never* watch a Marvel or Mission Impossible movie because they are a not real ✨art✨. I hope that makes sense!

[@AmeraAlawer]

Thank you so much . May I have a question, please ? is there any chance you could tell me the meaning of /industry supported expression/

[@highlevellistening]

Hello! I'm not sure I'm familiar with that phrase, and it's not one we used in this episode. If you're talking about films/movies, then "The industry" refers to the "film-making industry" and all the studios that make films, like Universal, MGM or Columbia. You might: "She's one of the most successful actresses in the industry." She's an actress, so we understand the industry is the film industry. Hopefully that helps a little!

[@AmeraAlawer]

very interesting as always . I think we have what stands for that generic /your/ in slang Arabic in Syria as well.and it works the same way as yours does. By the way is the phrase /slang Arabic /correct or should it be /Arabic slang/ Thank you both .

[@highlevellistening]

Very interesting, thanks for sharing! In English we would say: "Arabic slang", there's also English slang, German slang, French slang etc etc

[@BiquiRaccoon]

I've seen this series, called 'Sweet Home'. That's Korean series I belong. You should check it out😊

[@highlevellistening]

Sounds interesting! I know a lot of K-dramas and Korean series are very very popular!

Thanks our teachers

[@ОльгаЕлісеєнко]

The last movie I've watched in original with subtitles was "Poor things", which was awarded an Oscar. It's kind of provocative one. I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, this is a story about people who push boundaries of what was known, people of unconventional mind. The main character, the creature with a childlike mind in an adult body puts her foot down to learn the world. She acts directly, doesn't care that she can ruffle someone's feathers. On the other hand, the whole setup is pretty wild, because it's kind of shot through with sex. It's definitely not up my street. I was told that the movie was filmed after the book with the same name, but they are totally different. The movie is a free interpretation of the book. As I understood, it's a film director's take on that story. But If you are interested in "Poor things", I definitely recommend seeing it on the big screen.

[@highlevellistening]

Wow thanks for sharing your thoughts - and for using so much of the class vocabulary too! I've heard some "mixed reviews" about Poor Things. One friend thought it was very funny, another friend said it was very strange. The description of the plot sounds very unusual, but I know it has some very good actors in it, like Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo and Willem Dafoe, so if they're in it, then it can't be that bad!? I might wait until it comes out on Netflix or another platform before I check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@venureddy5050]

Thankyou,teachers

[@highlevellistening]

Thank you for joining us in class today!

[@qasim3476]

Please, Can I watch like this episodes if my level under intermediate

[@highlevellistening]

Come join us! It can be difficult at first, this is what we suggest. Practice listening: learn the flow and the rhythm of English by listening to the episode. You don't have to understand everything, it's good to hear English naturally spoken. 2nd listen: listen again, it will feel familiar and easier to hear the words again Pause the video for some interesting vocabulary. It's okay if you don't catch everything! English is step by step and day by day, good luck!

@@highlevellistening Just for fun. I'd like to hear more about you two imitating each other's accents in class🤣❤

[@Shinyaquamarine]

The last film I watched was Poor Things. At the beginning, I was like, What am I seeing?? It was a bit weird, but then I changed my mind, and I love it. It is the surreal coming-of-age story of a girl who emancipates herself. It is not my genre of film, but I liked it anyway. Did you watch it?

[@highlevellistening]

No I haven't seen it! But it really sounds right up my alley, I do like those kinds of movies. Sometimes those first few moments either capture you or make you turn it off haha, Thanks for sharing your experience and maybe it's a cool new movie for us to watch!

[@ОльгаЕлісеєнко]

@@highlevellistening "make you turn it off haha". It sounds really fascinating! I'm curious, why "haha"? just a part of expression?

[@highlevellistening]

"Haha" is the English way of showing a laugh. You also see "lol" "hehe" and others :)

[@ОльгаЕлісеєнко]

@@highlevellistening is it the same to say: make you laugh? or it's better to say that it's totally skippable?

[@highlevellistening]

It means I’m kind of joking, but also it’s common to add lol or haha to a serious statement to make it feel less serious I’ve been in bed all day haha I forgot to eat breakfast haha 😆

hi all High Level Listening Family . sorry to mention that I am in a little bit confuse to understand the meaning of "GRAMMER GYMNASTICS" pls detail .....

[@highlevellistening]

Hi, good question! "Grammar gymnastics" means that the grammar is quite tricky or complicated. Especially when you have to move or add some small words to make the correct phrase. Hope that helps!

[@giselle_avila]

I would like a video about a Job interview because I would like to talk with totally confident and with correct words

Thanks for your suggestion! We may use this topic in a back and forth Dialogue class in a couple of weeks!
