image because we see the magnificent sky but what about the other portion the larger portion in english i would say expansive expansive again after me expensive there you go again one last time expensive excellent very good now this word expansive just means covering a large area covering a large area just like we saw in the image a large area a large portion of the sky right so here's an example sentence i want you to look at we saw the expensive view from the window wow we saw the expansive view from the window makes sense right now let me show you a sentence pattern you can use with this word here we go the sentence pattern you can use is the dot dot dot is or was expansive again we're using a simple pattern so that you can get used to using this word again the dot dot dot is or was expensive now here's a sentence using this pattern the grand canyon is expansive right the grand canyon is huge it's very big it is expansive makes sense right so one more time after me expansive good job very good now before we go to the next word i want to quiz you i want to see if you're ready for this quiz so we have our first quiz all right here's the first question all right now you are

magnificent and expansive now i want us to go back to the image i want us to look at a different portion of the image let's move closer to where the rocks are this looks very serene serene again look at me serene excellent last time after me serene good now the word serene just means peaceful and calm marked by utter calm or quietness very peaceful think about walking through the woods and there's a very quiet stream you can hear the leaves rustling that is a very serene environment all right now let's look at an example sentence here we go we enjoyed the serene landscape at the top of the mountain we enjoyed the calm and the peacefulness at the top of the mountain so one more time we enjoyed the serene landscape at the top of the mountain now let me give you a pattern a sentence

this is a pattern you can use so we could say he could see his reflection or she could see her reflection in the mirror at the end of the hall now we're saying where it's located so we made the sentence longer right so again he could see his reflection in the mirror at the end of the hall we use this word reflection so last time after me reflection excellent all right now what about this next word so again we had reflection but our eyes kind of zoom out and we see the man looking and we have in or into the distance again in or into the distance one more time after me for pronunciation practice i'll do both ways in the distance good second into the distance excellent we use both of these patterns these expressions so this just means to look at or to look to a place that is very far from where you are although you can still see or hear things there we can see the sun but it's very far away right just like the man was looking very far into the distance so let's look at an example sentence using this expression this man excuse me the man was looking off into the distance again the man was looking off into the distance now what if you want to use this in a sentence let me give you this pattern the dot dot dot could be seen in the distance the dot dot dot could be seen in the distance a very simple pattern now using this pattern here's an example sentence the large boat

remember i'll see you next week but as always remember to speak english you still there you know what time it is it's story time hey i said it's story time all right so this story that i want to tell you came to mind because last week so i moved to a new office remember earlier i showed you all the view from my office right the view from my office remember we talked about that a little earlier beautiful office beautiful apartment beautiful area it's wonderful but i got home late one night last week i think i got home maybe around 10 30 or 11 p.m it was dark outside it was very calm and serene right so i got out of my car and i have an automatic lock so i just hit the button and it locks my car on my key so i hit the button and went dude so i stepped out my car again locked it to do and i was about to walk on the sidewalk toward my apartment when all of a sudden i heard footsteps behind me now remember it was late at night it was dark it was very calm but all of a sudden i heard footsteps behind me now immediately i thought that someone was following me so i turned around quickly and there was a man standing there he had a hood on and he was walking towards me and i looked at him and he said hey how are you i said dude you can't just walk up on me like that it was actually my neighbor he said oh i'm sorry and i think he was cold so he was walking kind of quickly and he was kind of leaned over like this and i thought about man if i had been in south korea it would have been totally different you see i was scared at that moment because i thought someone was coming to attack me but when i lived in south korea again this situation reminded me of south korea because living in south korea even at midnight as a single female living alone i could go outside at midnight walk to a park by myself where was dark they had a few lights there and i could walk and not worry about anyone attacking me that's how safe korea was and the situation that happened last week reminded me of how much i missed korea and walking around at night without worrying about anyone attacking me now my neighbor is great he didn't do anything of course but that fear that someone may have been walking up upon me that fear went away when i was in south korea it's a very safe country maybe your country is just like korea very safe or maybe your country is similar to more of a dangerous company company country but i'm glad everything worked out of course and my neighbor he's a cool guy but it reminded me that sometimes you can be in an area that's safe and sometimes you can be in an area that's not safe alright guys i hope you enjoyed this short story today have an awesome week and i will see you all next time
