I definitely have a long road to go, but it's better late than never, I'd never gone to school, and I grew up in too much ignorance, I'm not to be crying here, but more than anything it's because of my experience of life, it has been not too much in the prosperous side even that I have so many useful skills, certainly that should be enough, but I have come to the realization that I'm constrained by my communication skills, so I thank you for sharing all your knowledge, it is are very needed to many people.

Given the fact that, it is one of the greatest videos on KZbin someone ever worked on and this distinction is always made by wes.. quite clueless to gather words to say thank you and you fixed many of my grammar errors as well. If the dictionary provides a word that could beat thank you I would write here because only thanks is not enough.. Hats off to you..make more videos like this to fix our grammar and fundamentals as well..hats off to you. love from Pakistan ❤❤❤

HI How are you?

[@luciapeimbert4783]

Wes, can you teach us when to use will and when to use going to? Maybe you already have a lesson explaining the differences. Thank you

[@thomaswalker8790]

Great 👍 looks like there're two different teachers in this video

[@InteractiveEng]

Yeah, my hair was a bit different in some of the videos. Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 🤗

[@thomaswalker8790]

I guess there was a younger and smarter version of you in this video too. It takes a lot of guts and gumption to make a video like this. This is for those who really wanna learn the language right. Real smart video for those who wanna learn the nuances of the language. Godspeed

[@DonnieChoi]

For me it's - recurring vs recurrent - constraint vs restraint - continuous, continued, continual and continuing. - concise vs succinct - skillful vs skilled - unsettling vs disturbing For most foreigners, it's hard to spot the difference as it is subtle.

When you mentioned the set of words sees, seas etc, how about cease? Can that be part of that group of homonym words?

[@_zeynepay]

Hi sir, can you make a series of videos that make us learn new vocabularies everyday. By this way we can learn new words consistently? Thanks.

[@josephconrad7757]

Hi Wes. I want to ask, if I say" We met when we were in school", does it mean that we were students at the same school? And if I say" We met at school", does it mean that we were not students? We might be parents of students who went to the same school or we might be the guests/visitors of the school. I compare those sentences with these sentences " I was in hospital", means that I was a patient receiving medical treatments. And "I was at the hospital", means that I was a guest visiting my uncle. I'm confused. Please kindly enlighten me. Thank you.

Dear Wes in spanish we say "he is going to the university to study" in english you omit the article the " he is going to univetsity to study" can you elaborate on why this is done.

[@mepublic2]

Do you say e.g or i.e out loud ?🤔. I thought they were written that way, but said for their meaning orally speaking: for example, that is.

[@InteractiveEng]

You don't really use them in spoken English. Possibly if you're trying to emphasize something but it's not common. 👍

[@Leo-ry9xi]

Snuff out-extinguish Firefighters extinguish fire Firefighters snuff out fire Is that right?

[@InteractiveEng]

Yes, they have similar meanings. Of course, in this context it's more common to say 'extinguish' or even 'put out.' 👍

I have a question, if I want to use the services such as doing lazer treatment or doing facial massage am I a client or a patient? Because I don’t feel my self sick why should I call myself a patient. Is there any alternative option that would sound better? Helpppp

Don't say his name Don't tell me his name The difference between the two sentences highlights the difference between the two verbs. There's also "to tell" in the sense of figuring out, or understanding.. I can't tell who's the older brother Can you tell the time?

[@ChrisRossaroGG]

I.e.= id est (that is); e.g.=exempli gratia (for example). Both come from Latin.

[@Bestitwest]

Native speakers of English also struggle with prepositions. An annoying trend is "speak on" referring to speaking out on a topic. We have substituted politeness over correct English grammar. We need to be careful about who we imitate, especially if the person is famous or successful . Not everyone has received the same QUALITY of education hence the ubiquitous bad English grammar everywhere in these United States.

[@joannacollins291]

Metal, we sound a ‘t’ and not a ‘d’ when pronouncing. We speak British English.

[@joannacollins291]

To me, a better example would have been ‘medal’ vs ‘meddle’.

[@InteractiveEng]

In American English, people use a Flap T so they end up sounding the same. 😊

Can we use this in a passive voice? Like my book is burned up. My house is burned down.

[@InteractiveEng]

It sounds awkward in the passive because the phrasal verb is not describing an action done by the actor. 👍

[@kamalhossain-tb2ps]

Mum beats up her daughter because she was drunk. Here who was drunk? Please help.

[@InteractiveEng]

We don't know. In English, this is referred to as 'structural ambiguity.' It could be either the mom or daughter who is drunk. Another example - The man saw the woman with the telescope. 🔭

Many times I’ve heard “sleep in a bus/plane” used by a native speaker. Why not “on”?
