🌹🍂🌹🌨🌴☔️🌴🌨🌹🍂🌹 #Common_Mistakes INCORRECT: I bought several stuffs at the store. CORRECT: I bought several things at the store. CORRECT: I bought some stuff at the store. The word “stuff” is considered an “uncountable” noun in English – it is always singular, even when it refers to multiple things. The word “things” is a “countable” noun – it can be singular or plural. With countable nouns like things, we can use the words many, a few, and several. With uncountable nouns like stuff, we need to use different words: much, a little, and some. (“Some” can be used with countable nouns, too – some books, some tools, etc.) INCORRECT: There’s a cabinet below of the sink. CORRECT: There’s a cabinet below the sink. You don’t need “of” with most prepositions of place/location, such as behind, near, under, over, between, etc. My house is near a school. There’s a bridge over the river. The exceptions are in front of, on top of, and to the right/left of. The pot is on top of the stove. The sink is to the right of the toilet. 🌹🍂🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

🌹🍂🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌨🌹🍂🌹 #English_Points 🌹How to ask for the time in English OK. So you probably usually ask the time with either (or both) of these classic phrases: “What time is it?” “What’s the time?” Which is fine. This is how a lot of people ask the time. But don’t be surprised if you hear something like this when someone asks for the time: “You got the time, mate?” “Have you got the time on you?” “Excuse me, can I get the time?” Or, if you’re with a group of people, you might ask: “What time have we got?” 🌹🍂🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

🌹🍃🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌧🌹🍃🌹 #English_Points 🌹I’m for it. / I’m against it. "Against" can mean "opposed to": I think they might be against the plan. What does it mean? “For” means you support something. “Against” means you oppose it. Examples: “Two million people against the war were out on the streets today in the country’s largest mass protest.” “So, here’s a difficult question. Are you for or against the plan to allow cars into the high street?” “I’m against it. Dead against it.” “Well — I’m all for it.” “Don’t you work for the oil and gas industry?” “Erm … bye.” 🌹Notice that we can say “dead against” if we’re strongly opposed. Also notice that we can say “all for” if we strongly support it. 🌹💎🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

🌹🍃🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌧🌹🍃🌹 #English_Points 🌹When To Use “Depend” Vs. “Depending” 🌹We use depend and depending when one thing is strongly affected by another thing. 🌹For example, if there is a lot of rain, the flowers in your garden will grow. If there is no rain, the flowers will not grow. This means the growth of the flowers depends on the rain – one thing (the flowers’ growth) is affected by another thing (the rain). However, a lot of students are confused about when to use depend vs. depending. The answer involves the grammar of each sentence. 🌹Use depend/depends when it is the main verb in the sentence: “Will you go to the beach this weekend?” “I’m not sure. It depends on the weather.” (subject = it; main verb = depends) The results of the survey depend on the types of questions asked. (subject = the results of the survey; main verb = depend) When depend is the main verb, it is considered a “state verb” (not an action verb) and is never used in continuous form. NEVER say “It’s depending on…” 🌹Use depending when the word begins a dependent clause. This means that the sentence already has a separate subject and main verb, and the dependent clause only adds some extra information: We’re thinking about going to the beach, depending on the weather. (subject = we; main verb = are thinking) Depending on the types of questions asked, the survey produces different results. (subject = the survey; main verb = produces) Important note: we always say depend/depending ON, never “of” or “in.” 🌹There’s another way to use depend/depending, meaning when one person is relying on another – they trust the other person and/or need the other person to do something. With this definition, we can use depend for relying on someone in general, and depending for relying on someone right now in a specific situation: I don’t have a car, so I depend on my colleagues to give me rides to work every day. (in general) I’m depending on you to get this project done by Friday. (right now in a specific situation) 🌹💎🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

🌹🍃🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌧🌹🍃🌹 #Common_Mistakes Bad:I WANT YOU TO SEND ME THE FILES RIGHT NOW. 🌹In professional communications – or when writing to somebody who isn’t a close friend – it’s important to be polite and respectful. Sometimes English learners accidentally write sentences that are “too direct” and can come across as a little bit rude. When making a request, it is good to use “Could you…?” and “Please…” 🌹Could you please send me the files as soon as possible? 🌹💎🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

🌹🍃🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌧🌹🍃🌹 #Common_Mistakes 🌹You’re using “date,” “location” and “amount” when there’s a more natural solution 🌹Don’t say… “I still don’t know the date of the party.” “Can you tell me the camel’s location?” “We’ll never know the amount of carrots he ate. But he’s looking very orange right now.” 🌹Say… “I still don’t know when the party is.” “Can you tell me where the camel is?” “We’ll never know how many carrots he ate. But he’s looking very orange right now.” 🌹Why? As you can see, we prefer to use “when,” “where” and “why” as connecting words to make two sentences one sentence: I still don’t know. + When is the party? = I still don’t know when the party is. Can you tell me? + Where is the camel? = Can you tell me where the camel is? We’ll never know. + How many strawberries did he eat? = We’ll never know how many strawberries he ate. 🌹These are called embedded questions. 🌹Why? Well, they just “flow” better. 🌹💎🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub

#English_Points 🌹🍃🌹🌧🌴☔️🌴🌧🌹🍃🌹 🌹In today's post, we'll show you how to learn English easily. We’ve all had that feeling when time and the world around us stop because we’re completely focused on what we’re doing. Maybe it’s reading an excellent book or writing a long email to an old friend. This feeling is called 'flow'. It can make you learn English faster and it can also make you happier. 🌹Here’s what you need to achieve flow and learn English easily: 1. Balance your skill with the challenge scales This is simple. Make sure what you’re studying or reading or writing or listening to isn’t too challenging or too easy. If you’re stressed or if you’re bored, then flow doesn’t happen. Get the right balance. It’s much more productive. 2. Have clear goals target If you have a clear idea of what you want from each study session, you can concentrate better on what you’re learning. Make simple, regular goals with your English learning. This way, flow is easier. 3. Get clear feedback to learn English easily teacher and student talking When you know how well you're learning, this automatically gives you motivation. It’s also the same when you know where you’re making mistakes. When you get feedback from a teacher (or even just a friend with excellent English) your learning becomes faster and you can reach flow much more often and easily. 4. Your motivation must come from inside It’s good to be motivated to learn English for external reasons, like work or communicating with people. 🌹But remember yourself. If you aim to enjoy yourself while learning, you will. And if you enjoy yourself, you will enter flow and learn English easily. 🌹💎🌹 🆔 @Englishlanguageclub
