3:16 That is correct because "a lot" is singular 4:53 No, it could be either the window or the grammar book. 5:21 It could be tomatoes, cucumbers, or both. 6:38 More specifically, me is the indirect object. 6:59 More specifically, the subjunctive mood. 7:51 It's the subjunctive mood. The conditional tense is marked by placing "would" before a verb. 9:02 *2 or fewer syllables. Also, there are plenty of exceptions to this rule. 11:20 intoxicated /ɪnˈtɒksəˌkeitəd/-under the influence of alcohol. 11:29 "I've drunk" sounds just fine because via context, it's understood that it's a verb. Therefore, it doesn't mean, "under the influence of alcohol". 12:28 Only with specific verbs. Old English had different adverb suffixes. They were unstressed, therefore lost. Eventually, grammarians had enough of bare adverbs so they decided to make an adverbial suffix: "-ly". Bare adverbs are correct with certain words (fast, better, best, worse, worst). They are common, but incorrect with some words (quick, slow). 12:54 "Feel" is a linking verb, so an adjective (bad) should be used. "I feel bad," not "I feel badly." 15:24 They're called proper nouns.

[@rogiervossebeld3361]

At 12:56, be aware that to feel badly does not have the same meaning as to feel bad. Usually the verb "to feel" is used as a linking verb (other examples are "to be" and verbs of perception such as "to smell"), where it is followed by an adjective. The correct form should be: "to feel bad", unless it is meant that the person cannot feel properly.

Native speakers make this mistake because it is quicker and easier to say “there is” than “there are.”

Hi, Gabby! I loved this class. I'm from Brazil, and the first example wouldn't be a mistake for us. In portuguese, the example would be right. The plural only would be used if the sentence was "There are errors in spoken English." In the given example, if was portuguese, "a lot" is singular. So, it should take "is". Thanks for your explanation. I'll pay attention on this details.

This is a little poem, coming from a postcard sent from England to my Grandmother in Sweden around 1912 - 14. It was when I read this poem the first time I came to realize the meaning of the use of 'were' in situations where I, as many others, thought 'was' was correct. I wish I were a china cup in which you drink your tea 'Cause then I knew at every sup You would give a kiss to me. 💌☕ (IF there are any Swedes here, in this case "were" is the same as Swedish "vore", not "var". Ironically we do exactly the same mistake in Swedish! 😂)

And guess what Gabby ?! 👀 There comes you 👁️👁️ , you answered my question in this lesson Gabby 😀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍🤩👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 !!! It was perfect because I don't know if I would get asking this question to you correctly ... You were saying about that thing of "VAGUE" pronoun , I meant Gabby ... I know that in English on the 3rd person we add S to the verb but , my doubt is to identify this occult Personal pronoun Another amazing teaching you brought for us right now was , THERE'RE , Gabby I always wanted to know about it because I always saw ( THERE'S ) being used all the time but nobody never said about the contraction of ( There are ) and ... Although I've been doubt , maybe not doubt at all but so much curiosity 🤔 I never questioned about it Blue Eyes , thanks so much ♥️ , stay relaxed , I'm not going to complicate it saying THERE'RE LOL but I really appreciated knowing about this tiny detail Gabby , I love my native language well spoken which is Portuguese , and it's the same for Me in English , I really appreciate verbal concordance , plural and singular too . And talking about TOO , whoa ! I discovered Brazil ( meaning I made a HUGE discovery , I completely understood , wow , I never could imagine it's used for bad things and Gabby , it's a secret , Ok !? Let's keep it between you and Me 😀 but , you're the bestest Teacher of English from all over the World Gabby , THERE'RE a lotta impressive things more for Me to comment about this video but , I'm ECSTATIC here about this lesson , I'm gonna comment it tomorrow , please don't mark this comment with a ♥️ because I didn't finish it yet , ok ⁉️ 🤣 It's probable you don't appreciate the conclusion , but ...

[@shyamalganguly3598]

The way we speak and write English, in this case, differ as they always have been. The long historical journey of the two forms have been changed dramatically; the reason for this cannot be labelled easy(ly) if we assume us(ourselves) lazy or we are getting faster with the changing world everyday. Whatever might be the causes that made us use a language which we feel comfortable with and that drives us not to use THE before Ukraine nowadays and it's now idiomatic. We feel comfort when we say, 'there's a lot of people... etc' we do not seem to struggle with the language, but it's a crime not to maintain stricter, and never MORE Strict, when it comes to writing and that soothes the rich taste of English language. Adjectives are appropriate to use as adverbs in poems and I personally don't find it uncomfortable when we use similar idea punched into spoken English too. But we mustn't cramp our style anyway exaggerating the use of language while speaking or writing. Sometimes objective cases of personal pronouns are not punishable when it comes naturally, may not be grammatically enough, to be used as subjects in spoken English and you don't have solid reasons not to be easy with them. Yes, it's true sometimes we tend to become a little more showy by writing long sentences and losing what we actually mean by using dangling clauses or we often even write fragments in getting too little time to keep our eyes open for the kinds of mistakes. It's a long debatable issue to have been discussed in a more detailed and informative conversation, I have just scratched the surface and would like more on this.

It's interesting that to use adjectives instead of adverbs improperly is getting very common in spoken Japanese, too, and that's, I guess, because adjectives are generally easier to pronounce in Japanese language, too! Articles are difficult. Use of "the" before a proper name seems to be decided depending on the proper mame, such as Time magazine (not "the Time"), the Atlantic (not Atlantic magazine), etc. Am I wrong?

[@albert4153]

I think mistake "There IS a lot of errors" is coused of using word "lot". I thought it is a singular, that's why I should use "is". It is looked like my native language "Имеется множество ошибок", where use singular. Now, I'll speak right. Thank you!

[@annabackman3028]

I think you are right! It's the 'A lot' part that confuses people. 'A' is singularis, but we are talking about several items.

[@peterryabinin3829]

You know, Gabby, I have an idea: you could make some of your videos a little different way. As an example instead of 'quiz', you could make something like a dialogue with your viewers. You or Vanessa just ask a question and give us some time for an answer, while beneath the screen is an answer just for help to that, who have a problem with the answer. What do you think about it?

[@franciscoortega5.0]

Hello Gaby. Could you please explain why sometimes native speakers use "ish" at the end of some words like doing a little pause between the word and the "ish". I've thought this is some kind of joke but: What does this really means?

[@annabackman3028]

It means that something is like the word ending "-ish". For example if you are talking about a house that has a strange color, looking like yellow, but not really what you would call yellow, you can say the house is 'yellow-ish', meaning 'something not yellow, but looking something like yellow'. (The '-ish' part is the same as in EnglISH, DanISH, SwedISH etc.) Note that using '-ish' in speach is not proper language, it's very casual, a side track to slang. Often used in ironic or sarcastic situations. An absolutely NO in written language, otherwise than in a quote.

[@X87816]

Hi Gabby, love your channel but I've got a minor question/comment. In the video you talk about "I feel bad" being grammatically incorrect. But are you really sure about this? Aren't verbs of perception like "feel, sound, smell" etc always followed by adjectives instead of adverbs? (e.g. It sounds nice) Hope to hear from you. Keep up the good work.

[@danielaprzybyszewska7397]

I think you are absolutely right. There are some verbs, like "feel," "look" and "appear" that are followed by adjectives and not adverbs. But "appear" has different meanings so it depends. When it's used to indicate a look, for example, She appeared sad yesterday, then it's followed by an adjective. Good call, btw. I knew that, but I wouldn't have caught it if you hadn't mentioned it.

"I been" is incorrect because the correct way is "I've been". Yet, nowadays all Americans say "I got" whereas other English speakers say "I've got". But because it's been used for so many decades (perhaps since the 13 colonies) now it's regarded as correct in any dictionary, even in British ones.
