BEEN vs GONE | What's the difference?

yes ec dreamers welcome back to another lesson with me Tom today we're getting deep with Grandma we're looking at the difference between beam and gun any idea we're about to find out stop [Music] welcome to eats the dream English if you have a moment before my name is Tom and I teach fresh modern British English so that you can take your English to the next level and achieve your life goals thank you so much for joining me today guys we're looking at the difference between beam and gun not everyone knows the difference and it's really important now before I get started guys remember that you can become a member of each liter of English and you can get access to live streams with me you can ask me your questions live and you'll get lots of extra content if you're interested you can hit that join button underneath this video also guys remember to stay around to the end of this video where I have my new feedback section where I look at your comments from the last video and I reply to them looking forward to that one it was super fun last time we're gonna do it again okay enough of that let's get going the main confusion lies in the fact that we use beam and gun as the past participial for go however the meaning is different we're talking about the present perfect right so Howell has plus the past participle so beam or gone now if I said to you I've been to Paris that would tell you that I visited Paris and then I returned it was a complete visit I went I came back done if I said to you I have gone to Paris that means that the visit is not complete I went there and I am still there now hmm so that's all it is one of them is a complete visit you go there you come back the other one is incomplete let's think about this visually okay so I'm in London now and I say to you I've been to Hong Kong yeah I've been to Hong Kong where am I when I tell you this I'm in London right because it's a complete visit I've been to Hong Kong I've returned a complete visit okay now maybe we're on the phone and I tell you I've gone to Hong Kong well where am I when I say that that's right I mean Hong Kong yeah Hong Kong love the city huh don't need this jumper because it's an incomplete visit I am there and I haven't returned yet so as you can see one is a complete visit one is an incomplete visit all right let's do a little quiz to test you how did you do is that okay did that make sense all right it's quite simple really but yeah it's important to get the difference okay guys this case this brand new section where I feedback on some of your comments from the last video which was 36 words that you don't know how to say correctly now some of these comments were so awesome so the first one Jessica Chang says that she visits Loughborough every single day now laughs what was one of the words that we looked at that you couldn't pronounce and Jessica didn't know how to say it but she visits that city every single day awesome alright so now hopefully you know how to say Jessica thank you for your comment william gutierrez asked for the difference between mouth and mouse the beginning sounds are the same mouth and mouse so the most important thing here is what are you doing with your tongue at the end of the word with mouth you're blowing air out and your tongue is touching your top teeth mouth mouth so i'm blowing air out mouth now with mouse my tongue is down and i'm blowing air out but it's not touching my teeth mouse mouse so the difference there is the height of your tongue where your tongue is for mouth it's touching and for Mouse it's not touching Mouse Yatta asked for the word brewery brewery that is tricky that is a hard one let's let's break it down so you've got two sounds here brewery brewery so I visited the Guinness brewery yesterday I visited the Guinness brewery yesterday brewery okay just two sounds that's all you need I hope that helps I love this comment from surgeon so if I got your name wrong there this was referring to a video a week ago which was all about the brand new words in 2018 that the Oxford Dictionary had just added to the dictionary now what I love about this is that Sir John has watched my video I took a few the words from the new list of words but then they have gone and researched the other ones they've shown so much curiosity and passion to learn more English above and beyond eat sleep dream English and that's so awesome by the looks of the comment they found their word called cake ISM love it what a what a great word and they're also suggesting that we've come up with some new words like chair drove which is basically like your wardrobe but you know when you come in from a long day and you get changed and you don't put your clothes into their wardrobe you just throw them onto a chair a chair drobe I love that idea I want to add to that flawed robe cuz I just throw mine on the floor but I love it and I love your passion for learning so thank you very much now I also love this comment from Patrice Patrice it comes from France but is living in the UK and has a daughter and he's trying to learn more about British English and British culture so that he can teach his daughter I love that so much that is that's exactly what eats the dreaming this is about it's about you guys being able to help the people around you and yourselves of course and Wow I mean what an amazing father you are to be doing that that's incredible so thank you so much for your comment and and I wanna do everything I can to help you to teach your daughter and your it's trying to help their family learn English and let me know because that's the amazing thing to do and finally a lovely comment from Anita Anita came on the meetup that we did last week we met up in London it's about 15 of us each the dreamers and we walked around regents park Primrose Hill and then we ended up in a pub just having a chat having conversation just getting to know each other and making friends and I
