[@HanhLe19]

Hi Andrew, Thanks for all videos you have made . Happy 2021. Please let me know should we use The in this phrase: “ Why do I have to pay more than THE actual price ? “ or Without The or Both are correct ? Thanks Andrew .

[@CrownAcademyEnglish]

It's a pleasure. Thanks for the comment. In that sentence, yes, we must use "the" because we are referring to a specific price that we already know. Best wishes Andrew

This chapter is 👌 🌲 SUGGESTION I request you to teach " WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN " EXCEPTION " & " EXEMPTION " (2) You forgot one paint (a) Religious Place like TEMPLE, CHURCH, MOSQUE, GURUDWARA & OTHERS If we visit regularly We don't use the DEFINITE ARTICLE "THE" But If we occasionally visit to that place we use the DEFINITE ARTICLE.

Hello Andrew,Ivan writing.Thank you for your English lessons,you are great!I would ask you why you said(and read) "Jane worked in Italy for 3 years" and not "Jane had been working in Italy for 3 years".thanks for helping me

[@ecktogamut]

Good question. Let's try to find answer in grammar videos, I suppose it may be found there.

[@learnbibleversethroughpict6027]

To dear Ivan, Jane worked in Italy for 3 years means she is no more working there now. On the other hand, if we say Jane had been working in Italy, that means she continued to work there till (a particular time) very recent time, but not now. Hope this will clear your doubts.

I really like your explanation. Because it's quiet and clear.👍 I respect all languages, but let me say, I notice that the grammar of the English language changes according to the sentence. Quite the opposite in the Arabic language, the grammar of the Arabic language does not change in different sentences, it is only one and fixed.❤️ We are pleased to join you to learn Arabic Thanks too mach

Thanks Andrew, your lessons are perfect as usually! One question. Teacher who visit University every day along with students, he or she is at the uni or at uni?

[@CrownAcademyEnglish]

Hi. We would usually say "He or she is at *the* university." "at university" really does imply being a student. I hope that helps. My next video will be available next Tuesday 5th January in which I will give some news and my plans for the channel in 2021. 🙂 Best wishes, Andrew

[@davehooper6481]

I'm a 53 year old American that is STILL learning this complicated language but there are some rules I can do without. "He's in hospital" sounds like broken English to me. He's in a hospital. He's in that hospital. He's in a nearby hospital. It seems there should be some description of the hospital mentioned but just "in hospital" is new to me. I did not grow up hearing that even if it is correct. It is only recently that Americans starting saying it that say. I hear the explanation and I see other similar applications of the rule that sound alright (she's in school) but "She's at university" is broken English to me. "She's at school" fine. "She's in/at college" sounds alright. "She's at university" always gets my ears up. If the person is foreign it seems fine but too often they are Americans trying to not sound like they are American.

[@sauravloothra4866]

It's not complicated sir. Do read some Grammer rules. The is basically use as a definitive article. When it specified in the sentence for something or somebody. In general use we will not use the. Like students are related to school so we don't have to use the before them. But parent went to school which is not their daily task we have to use the before them.

I think it would be more helpful for English learners if you just don't speak out the incorrect examples. I don't know how to explain it best, it's just far less confusing for our brain to manage. Hearing out incorrect examples is totally unnecessary, since it's already in the video, we get a choice to read the obvious incorrect examples or to skip/read pass them. Does that make sense?
