on my favourite actor's name is Harrison Ford something like that the next word is time time is used of course to express the point in the day is used in questions like what time is it can you tell me what time it is I don't have any time lately if you're really busy have you any time it's time for my favorite show house of cards Kevin Spacey is cool the next noun is man please be careful man is one of those words that has an irregular plural form when you need to use the plural of the word man you should say men do not say man's it's very funny but don't say it who's that man or what's up man you can use man with men or women interestingly enough the next word is woman women also has an irregular plural form please say women when referring to more than one woman not women's even though the the singular in the plural form of women and women have the same spelling at the beginning WOM the pronunciations are different women women so watch out for that when you say this pretty woman the next word is person person you can use it to refer generally to either a man or a woman please be careful persons plural form becomes people when you want to talk about another culture for example you can say such-and-such countries people or the people in that country speak flippable language the next word is thing generally an inanimate object something that is that just doesn't move like a water bottle or you know a sweater a thing you can use it when you don't know the word for something so thing is very very useful what is this thing I like many things for example where the wild things are the movie that's already out that I totally knew about no the next word is mother mother is the person the woman who gave birth to you is not exciting mother is commonly shortened to mom or mama or mummy ma Madre if you speak Spanish mum Mamba if you're me mamacita the next word is des of course des is used in all of the days of the week Monday Tuesday Wednesday since pressure Sunday time period

around the world in the world of science this is an upcoming technology or in the world of literature he's one of the most famous authors so world's can be used to refer just just to kind of a more specific hobby or a specific interest or just a specific person's life Worf world's father father is your dad other other common words used for father are dad Papa Papa daddy ha ha ha while mother is used to refer to kind of like nurturing kind of like you know the earth or things that like kind of give life to others father at least in my mind there's kind of this image of someone who's a little bit more strict in your life the next word is sister a female sibling is your sister you can also use sister for a female person that you feel very very close with so I might call my female friend who's I'm very close to my sister my brother likes to shorten it to sis you might also hear sista as well if you are silly sister Whoopi Goldberg was in a famous movie called Sister Act the next word is brother brother is a male sibling you can also use brother to refer to a close male friend common variations of brother are brother bro bra Rosie brewski depending on what kind of person you are you can choose to use any number of those like I might sarcastically say to my friend cool story bro look if he's told me a story that's not very exciting in Mario for example the name of the Mario games is actually Super Mario Brothers but brothers is abbreviated as Br as Super Mario Bros yeah just be careful about your use of bro because it sounds a little bit like a college-age boy that's kind of a kind of the feeling of the word bro oh brother where art thou the next word is daughter daughter is a female child daughter do you have a daughter I have a daughter I don't have a daughter taken its son a male child is someone's son son s Oh n is pronounced exactly the same as s u n son what are you talking about son the next word is I II ye I your eye is the round thing that you used

the company they are the head if you have a head dance the next word is foot this is another word that has a weird plural form 1 foot 2 feet foot interestingly enough foot is used of course to refer to your body part a foot also is a unit of measurement if you are from America or I believe one other country in the world uses this system sorry we're not onboard with the metric thing in America but

words so give them a try thanks very much for watching us in this lesson and we'll see you again soon bye cows are delicious hi everybody welcome back to top words my name is Alisha and today we're gonna be talking about five sentence patterns that you can use as a beginner of English let's go the first expression that you can use as a beginner is personally I think that or I would just use I think that personally makes it sound a little bit more polite I think you can use this to introduce an opinion for example personally I think that pizza is amazing personally I think that dinosaurs would have been delicious personally I think that cars should be made to enjoy with friends personally I think that you shouldn't worry about it yes it's probably much more useful sentence than dinosaurs would be the next expression is what does blah blah blah mean so we're here is the word you don't know so for example what does pasta mean what does Stegosaurus mean so a word like Stegosaurus is a really strange word that you probably don't know Stegosaurus is a type of dinosaur we're gonna marry dinosaurs I don't know Jurassic we're on a Jurassic adventure so this is a pattern you use when you don't know when you don't know the meaning of the word and you would like someone to explain it to you so if you say what does stegasaurus mean then someone can say oh it's a dinosaur it's kind of like it's a sort of short guy and it has a bunch of spikes on its back and it has a long tail and it gets into a fight with the Tyrannosaurus Rex if you saw the movie Fantasia by Disney okay in this sentence what does complication mean it means problem okay the next pattern you can use is can you tell me more about bla bla bla so on a topic that you would like more information about you can say can you tell me more about the soccer game last week can you tell me more about the plan for the party next week so something you would like more information about you can say can you tell me more about this thing okay so in a sentence can you tell me more about your sandwich options that is a useful sentence that is a useful sentence okay in this sentence here we don't have that back home can you tell me more about it mmm this is used to the reverse pattern okay the next expression is if it were up to me if it were up to me I had to teach this in a class couple weeks ago actually if it were up to me means if I could make the decision if this was my if this were my decision bla bla bla so meaning if I could make the choice this is what I would do but one point here is the nuance is it is not my decision this is not my decision but if it were my decision I would do bla bla bla so for example if it were up to me every day would be Saturday but it's not right so that's that's always the underlying that's always the kind of basic nuance of this phrase some this decision is not mine okay here in the example is if it were up to me I would take my boss to dinner oh my things just got scandalous the next pattern is I feel like blah blah blah you can use I feel like when you introduce a suggestion or something that you would like to do especially for food drinks or activities so for example I feel like coffee I feel like Italian food I feel like an action movie there's some activity or something you would like to do at the end of this pattern I feel like bowling this afternoon something needs to go here some sort of activity of course you can use this expression to talk about your feelings I feel like something but this something must be a noun it must be a noun like if you feel really great I feel like a million bucks for example if you feel really bad I feel like garbage that's a nice expression that somehow it just came out of my head anyway you can use this in two ways but this must be completed with a noun phrase at the end of the sentence that's the end then so those are five beginner patterns that you can use I think these are really really useful patterns especially for making a suggestion or describing your feelings so please give them a try thanks very much for watching this episode of top words please be sure to like this video and subscribe to our channel if you haven't already we'll see you again soon bye hi everybody my name is Alisha and today I'm joined again in the studio by Michael hello hi Michael thanks for joining us again today today we're going to be looking at a few tips for learning another language so each of us have prepared a few things that we think are really useful when learning another language both of us have studied another language to some degree so we're gonna talk about things that were useful for us and which might be useful for you as you practice your English skills so let's begin do you want to start sure go for it I would say absorb media this is something that actually when I meet someone and they sound like a native English speaker and I go you know where are you from are you from Australia America no no I'm from blah blah blah what you mean not a native English speaker and every single time they tell me I said you know how did you learn please I'm an English teacher I want to know I want to help people baba and every single time they tell me oh I just love blah blah blah culture so usually I love American culture I love Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga blah blah blah blah blah and so all day every day they're reading they're watching movies are sitting on YouTube and just absorbing it and it doesn't feel like you're studying but you are and so then you're more likely to study so it's like a fun way to study it's it's helped me I've changed everything on my iPod so even when I'm lazy I have no choice but to listen to the language I'm learning yeah I think that's a really good tip I had the same thing essentially mine was just phrase slightly different I said find something that interests you in your target language so if English is your target language whatever it might be if it's music if it's movies if it's comic books I don't know if it's if you're interested in some dating someone who speaks your target language whatever it is find something to motivate you something that's gonna make you want to study and make you want to learn that language so that you have that you know that that drive to do it I totally agree with you yeah I think it's a great tip okay cool so we had one thing that was the same I guess I'll share another one of mine if that's okay my next one is one that I try to do myself but I know that yeah I miss a mess up every once in a while um practice everyday even if it's just a few minutes whether you can spare an hour or two hours or just I myself study while I'm you know commuting to work on the subway just find something that you can do every single day so that you don't lose you know lose your place in your studies just whether it's vocabulary or picking a new grammar point to be looking at or just you know finding a new phrase on TV that you thought was interesting just being an active learner every single day really really contributes I think to your abilities to speak and to understand another language let's just practice every single day something I think this is a really useful piece of advice for anything I think a lot of people you get overwhelmed and you know you think man I want to be here whether it's exercising or playing the piano or whatever and you just want to finish you know a year's worth of time in one day and so you study really hard you know you procrastinate and then what that you do you cram as much as you can you get burnt out and then you don't do it for weeks months and that's not the way humans work we're creatures of habit any of the best the greatest whether they speak a language like you is wonderfully as you do or whatever or play piano or whatever every single time you ask them and it's brick by brick by brick so I I agree 100% and I also don't follow this advice all the time tough I think the key is to not give up so for me honestly my my languages aren't I'm not as confident but as far as exercise you know you'll get lazy and you'll pig out and you go down but you can't just give up and just let it go down right just remember the big picture that you are making progress even if there's some some some decline so you busy with work whatever get back on it keep practicing yeah English get back on English class 101.com what is your next tip um so my next tip is also related to practice everyday is practice fearless ly so this means you know it's easy to learn some basic phrases in English hello I'm fine thank you and you and you sound like a robot and you feel comfortable comfortable in your little like comfort zone but you don't expand you've got to be willing to make mistakes and I think it's the same as with dancing if you're afraid you look stupid if you're your reserved and you're off onto the side of the club and you're just kind of moving one shoulder and your little comfort bubble it looks really stupid it looks way more stupid than if you were actually going all out and just having fun with it yeah I think it's the same thing with language don't just stick to your little comfort of hello I'm fine thank you and you and sound like a robot you gotta have some fun with it try to use those big words that maybe you mess up that's okay that's how you learn it's like a kid so let's see your other one my tip my last tip then is kind of general I guess I've just chosen immersion this doesn't necessarily mean that you have to go to the country you know where they speak the language that you're studying but just find a way to even if it's just for a short period of time every day or once a week or whatever it is if there's some some way that you can immerse yourself in the language that you're studying for a period of time and only study you know Spanish or only study English in your case for it firfer period of time every day or every week every month whatever it is on a regular basis so you get used to just hearing that and just experiencing that I think is really really helpful I think yeah I agree um I think that's no no that's nothing um I thought I thought I wrote a duck yeah I agree one of the things that most people don't realize is that now it's the 21st century everyone's connected so a lot of people just assume that if you move to the country you're gonna pick up the language because immersion is is one of the best most you know time and time again improved way proved ways to learn a language but that's not always the case like I have a lot of friends in different countries who don't learn it at all they're married to a local but they just it's easy to just sit on Facebook and talk to your old friends and never actually you know practice and put it out there so if you can't make it out to another country don't worry about it because even if you do is sometimes you know it's that mindset it's actually doing it yeah yeah okay what's your last tip our last tip is take grammar with a grain of salt so of course grammar is essential for learning a language absolutely there's no doubt about it you should definitely focus on that but what I found is that when you're learning from a non-native English speaker they feel safe teaching grammar because their set rules they can teach even if their pronunciation isn't correct or any of that and you know you you can just get into that rut but the reality of most languages is we break those rules all the time so don't worry too much if you're if your grammar is a little off or you're having trouble learning it just just kind of go with it and just try to repeat what you hear yeah I don't know about you though no I think I think that's an interesting point though because I think that I'd like you say I think grammar is a really safe place for a lot of people because like you say there are there are rules it's clear that I can see them you know if I put a noun and a verb like this then I'm gonna make a sentence that says this and I understand that it's really easy to understand but I think that's something that a lot of learners and myself I'm guilty of this too is that there's a limit to how much grammar that you learn like once you learn the grammar you're you've you've learned the grammar yeah it's possible I think to master the grammar of any language but it's the vocabulary that continues to change every year there are new words in every single language that gets developed people are making up new words every day especially in English so experiment you know when once you find that you know you've learned you've learned the grammar move on you don't keep keep exploring new vocabulary find new and interesting things to do with the tools that you've given yourself so don't be afraid to experiment with your vocabulary too if you find something that you might like to try to make a verb out of like Google for example give it a try see if it works if the other people around you're confused maybe it didn't work if the other people around you laughs or you know continue with the conversation hey maybe you just made a new word you never know so give it a try thank you very much for joining us for our English tips on this lesson we will see you again next time bye hi everybody welcome back to
